General
Bets will be settled on the results and statistics provided by the relevant governing body.
Overtime counts for all markets unless otherwise stated.
All Outright markets, unless otherwise stated, include playoffs. Any official governing organisation tie-breaks where applicable are included in settlement.
For settlement purposes, the team listed second in the event name is always considered the home team. For example, ‘Team A-Team B’, Team B is the home team.
Abandonments, Cancellations and Postponements
If a match does not start on the scheduled start date and is not completed within 24 hours of the scheduled start time, all bets will be void except for those on markets that have been unconditionally determined.
If a match is called off with more than five minutes to play, all bets will be void except for those on markets that have been unconditionally determined.
Quarter and Half Markets
The entire period of play must be completed for bets to stand. Overtime does not count for Quarter markets. For Second Half markets, overtime does count.
Will There Be Overtime?
Bets will be settled as yes if, at the end of regulation time, the match finishes in a draw, regardless of whether or not overtime is played.
Double Result
Bets will be settled on the score at half time and full time, inclusive of overtime.
‘Race To X’ Markets

Series Markets
A series must come to a natural conclusion for bets to stand.

Regular Season Wins
A team must complete 70 matches for bets to stand unless the outcome has been unconditionally determined prior to the interruption or shortening of the season.

Wire to Wire Markets
These are offered for a given team to be leading a match at the end of each quarter. Provided the selected team leads at the end of each quarter, the relevant bet will be successful even if, during any such quarter, the selected team temporarily ceases to lead the scoring. ‘Any Other Selection’ will be deemed the winner if either team does not lead the match after each quarter.
The Sportsbook General Rules will apply for any category of bets or markets not referred to in these Specific Sports Rules.
