Bets on the match winner will be settled at odds of 1 in this case.
Should a match be interrupted due to the withdrawal or disqualification of either team, the first game/set must have been completed for bets on the winner of the match to stand, otherwise all bets on this outcome will be settled at odds of 1. In the event of the withdrawal or disqualification of a player, a forfeit will be declared.
If a match starts, but is not completed for any reason (for example, if one of the opponents refuses to continue or is disqualified) and more than two games/sets have been played, the outcomes which had already been unconditionally determined at the time the match was interrupted (for example, the outcome of the first game/set, total of the first game/set, etc.) will count towards the bet settlement. Payouts on other bets will be made at odds of 1 except for bets on the winner of the match. The team which has advanced to the next round or the winner of the tournament will be regarded as the winner of the match.
No bet will be canceled because of a misprint in the initials of a sportsman/sportswoman (for example, B. Smith instead of A. Smith). In this event, bets will stand.
"Win The Match". If any of the players named in the outcome is substituted before the start of the match, all bets shall be deemed void.
Handicaps and totals for the aforementioned sports must be specified in points except for “Handicap By Sets” and “Total Sets” markets.

The Customer should check the rules of basketball friendlies (whether cup or club friendlies) through official sources. If a friendly ends in a draw (the rules of the match have been changed), bets on the winner will be settled at odds of 1. However, bets on total and handicap markets will be settled on the result.
If overtime is played in cup ties due to the aggregate result of a two-legged match, overtime will be taken into account to settle bets on the second match. Likewise, overtime played due to the aggregate result of a two-legged match is also included in “To Qualify”, “To Be Promoted/Relegated”, “Tournament Winner” and other similar bets.
Should a basketball match end in a draw, the “Will There Be Overtime? - Yes” bet wins and the “Will There Be Overtime? - No” bet loses.
"Half-Time/Full-Time". In the “Sports” section “W” stands for win and “X” stands for draw. The outcome of the first half is specified first and is followed by the outcome after regular time. For example, W1W2 means that the first team (W1) will win the first half and the second team (W2) will win the match in regular time.
"Highest (Lowest) Scoring Quarter – Total". If two or more highest (lowest) scoring quarters have the same total, no stakes will be refunded. In this event bets will be settled based on the total (when the total of the fourth quarter is settled, no points scored in overtime will count).
"Highest Scoring Quarter". If the highest scoring quarter is impossible to determine unconditionally (i.e. when two or more quarters have ended with the same result), bets on such quarters will be settled at odds of 1. Bets on оther quarters will lose (when the total of the fourth quarter is settled, no points scored in overtime will count).

Bets on “Turnovers” markets are only settled based on the individual statistics of players rather than on team statistics.
Bets on "Rebounds" markets are settled based on the individual statistics of players and the team statistics. For NBA, WNBA, French league (men) matches only personal rebounds are considered.
Bets on the “Race To … Points” markets in the “Sports” section may be available with:
two outcomes (W1, W2). For such bets, if neither team scores the specified number of points, bets on a winner will be void (for example, if the score is 19-19, “Race to 20 Points W1” bets will be void).
three outcomes (W1, W2, Neither), in which case, bets will be settled according to the results.
The “Score By Quarters 2-0” bet will win if Team 1 has won two quarters out of four and the remaining two quarters have ended in a draw. The “Score By Quarters 1-1” bet will win if one team has won one quarter, the other team has won another quarter, and the remaining two quarters have ended in a draw.
"Handicap By Quarters". For example, “2 Handicap By Quarters -2.5”. The final score is 81:102 (17:22, 26:25, 18:20, 20:35), the score by quarters is therefore 1:3 (0:1, 1:0, 0:1, 0:1 respectively). The bet loses as when the handicap to Team 2 is applied, the score by quarters is 1:0.5.
The “Total Drawn Quarters”, “Handicap By Quarters”, “Score By Quarters” and “Win By Quarters” markets are only settled on the result at the end of regular time.
The “1 Winning Margin In Points Interval From -1 to 9” bet wins if the difference in the number of points scored by Team 1 and Team 2 falls within the interval of -1 to 9 points. For example, the score is (85:90) so the winning margin of Team 1 is -5 and thus the bet loses.
Bets on the “2-Point Field Goal Percentage”, “3-Point Field Goal Percentage” and “Free Throw Percentage” markets are settled based on the statistics from the official website whereby the percentage values are rounded to the nearest whole number.
Bets on the “Total Play Time” market should be specified in minutes. If the total has been named exactly, bets will be settled at odds of 1. For example, in respect to the bet “Total Kyrie Irving Over 39.5”, if the player’s total play time amounts to 39 minutes 30 seconds, the bet will be settled at odds of 1.

The bet will win if the teams score more than 167.5 points in total. If the teams score 166 or 167 points in total, stakes will be refunded.
"SuperHandicap 1/2 ()". The Customer should predict whether the team will win taking into account the quoted handicap. For example, "SuperHandicap 2: (-4; -3 Refund) -4.5". The bet will win if the score difference amounts to 5 points or more in favor of Team 2. If there is a draw after the handicap values (-4) or (-3) have been applied, stakes will be refunded.
Bets on the average player statistics during the regular NBA season (points, rebounds, assists, block shots). For bet settlement purposes players must have taken part in 58 games, in accordance with the NBA rules.

For this bet it is necessary to predict whether or not the player will have a double-digit performance in two (double-double), three (triple-double) categories in the match. Statistical categories: points, rebounds, assists, block shots. If the sportsman had a triple-double, then the double-double bet on this player will be settled as a loss.
Score in the interval. For this market it is suggested to guess whether the quarter score will be in the selected interval. In the left part, the range for the first team score is pointed out, in the right part - the range for the second team score. Example. "Score in the interval 3rd quarter. 22-33: 8-19 - Yes." The bet wins if the 3rd quarter ends with the score of 24-15.

Golfers who have missed the cut will be deemed to have lost. However, if an insufficient number of players make the cut for the place markets, the remaining places will be allocated among those players who have missed the cut based on their final scores once handicaps have been applied.

A tie-break will be regarded as a single separate game.
"Points". A point is a result of a serve (each serve ultimately leads to one of the players winning a point – through a rally or a double fault).

FAST4 tennis matches are either best-of-three sets (two sets must be won) or best-of-five sets (three sets must be won). A set lasts until four games have been won. If the score is 3:3, a tie-break is awarded. The tie-break is won when a player reaches 5 points but there is no need for a two-point margin, meaning that the tie-break can end with a score of 5:4.
