  1.2.1.2 You have received a bet confirmation number after your bet is processed through our website.
1.3 In the event that a telephone bet has been placed, and the operator has called it back to you, and you have not amended the details of the bet, the bet shall stand as read back to you by the operator.
   
2. Conditions of Placing a Bet
2.1 Bets can only be made via the telephone or on the Internet.
2.2 Bets will generally be accepted up to the official starting time of an event, unless stated otherwise. A bet is deemed void (even if accepted) if it is submitted after the official starting time of an event, unless it is a Live In-Play bet.
2.3 In the case of a Live In-Play event which commences before the scheduled time, only wagers before the start of the game will be considered valid.
2.4 For all North American Sports and Soccer, all events must be played in the scheduled day unless otherwise specified. For postponed or abandoned games, all bets shall be deemed void and all stakes returned. For all other sports, unless otherwise specified, events who are abandoned or whose start time is postponed and then rescheduled to a time more than 48 hours after the original start time, all bets will automatically be deemed void and all stakes returned.
2.5 If a bet is void at any time, affected multiple bets will be recalculated excluding that leg.
2.6 The winner of an event or game shall be determined on the date of the event’s conclusion in accordance to the Sportsbook wagering rules and regulations. The Sportsbook shall not recognize suspended games, protests or overturned decisions for wagering purposes.
2.7 Unless otherwise stipulated, all contests that involve a predetermined time of play must play to their conclusion or have five (5) minutes or less of scheduled playing time remaining when the contest concludes to be considered official by the Sportsbook.
2.8 Unless otherwise stated, overtime periods shall be counted by the Sportsbook as follows:
  2.8.1 On all Under/Over (totals) bets, overtime periods shall be counted by the Sportsbook in the final score.
  2.8.2 On all half-time wagers, overtime periods shall be counted by the Sportsbook as included in the second half.
2.9 Unless otherwise stated, in instances where a match is called off while in progress, or the outcome is postponed to a later date, the official result, if any, declared by the Sporting Event’s Controlling Body will be used to determine the settlement of wagers placed on the outcome of an event. Any events that have been decided prior to the calling off or postponement of the event shall stand.
2.10 Dead Heats and/or Draws . In any competition where the draw is not offered as an explicit 3 way option (excluding North American Sports, Golfing Head to Heads, Boxing and Basketball) any bets placed on a drawn event shall be resulted in accordance with dead heat rules:
  2.10.1 Full face value of the ticket (stake + payout) divided by the number of the deadheat count. For example, a bet on England vs. Australia in Rugby Union, £100 England @ 1.90 would return £95.
  2.10.2 Dead heats or Draws in North American Sports, Golfing Head to Heads, Boxing and Basketball will be deemed to be a "push" (full refund of stake).
2.11 Multiple bets shall not be accepted where the outcome of one part of the bet contributes to the outcome of another. If a client inadvertently or deliberately takes a related contingency in a multiple bet, the bet shall be deemed void, and the stakes returned.
  2.11.1 Any multiple made up of more than one selection from the same event shall be deemed a related contingency, with the exception of bets placed on North American Sports where sides and totals make up a multiple bet.
  2.11.2 Any multiple involving the same team or its players, or the same selection will be deemed a related contingency.
  2.11.3 Parlays may not include run line into totals within the same Baseball game.
2.12 In the event of an event being offered for which we do not currently have specific rules, we will undertake to provide relevant trading terms and conditions in our Rules of Play at that time. Until such time as the relevant rules of play have been updated, or in the event that specific rules of play are not provided, Las Vegas Rules shall apply.

3.1 No bet may be cancelled, changed, or modified by the Player, in any way or form, once it is has been received and accepted by the Sportsbook.
  3.1.1 In the case of a bet placed via the telephone, the responsibility to verify that the bet details are correct resides with the player, and unless advised by the player otherwise at the time of the bet confirmation, you will be deemed to have accepted the bet as repeated back to you by the operator.
  3.1.2 In the case of a bet placed via the Internet, the responsibility to verify that the bet details are correct prior to the submission of a bet resides with the player; it is recommended that players print a copy of their confirmation betting ticket for their own records.
