All games must start on the scheduled date (local time) for bets to have action. If a game has been postponed or cancelled before its due start time then all bets are deemed no action.

For all Baseball (including Minor League Baseball) games, or MLB pre-season matches with no named pitcher, no listed pitchers and all bets are action regardless of who pitches for each team. The 8½ innings rule also applies, although in the event of a Mercy Rule being called, all bets will stand on the score at the time. For seven innings games played as part of a doubleheader the 6½ inning rule will apply.

In 2-Way markets Push rules apply, unless otherwise stated. Stakes on single bets are returned, and in multiples/parlays the selection is treated as a non-runner.

Settlement of Wagers

All settlements are based on the results and statistics provided by the relevant leagues governing body, for example – MLB (Major League Baseball).

MLB Wagers

It is the player’s responsibility to ensure they are aware of any relevant pitcher changes.

• Listed Pitchers are for informative purposes only – it is up to the customer to know who will be the starting pitcher.
• No (Starting) Pitchers named – Team against Team regardless of starting pitcher. Bets are action.

For any suspended MLB game that resumes within 72 hours of the suspension, all bets will stand and be settled after the completion of the game. If the game is not completed within 72 hours following the time of suspension, then all bets will be void unless settlement of bets is already determined.

Matches Not Played as Listed

If a match venue is changed then bets already placed will stand, providing the home team is still designated as such. If the home and away team for a listed match are reversed then bets placed based on the original listing will be void.

4½ Innings Rule

Money Line – There must be at least five full innings of play, unless the team batting second is leading after 4½ innings, for bets to stand. If the game is called, or suspended, after this point of the game is reached, then the winner is determined by the score after the last full inning (unless the team batting second scores to tie, or takes the lead in the bottom half of the inning, in which case the winner is determined by the score at the time the game is called).

Please note that suspended games do not carry over (with the exception of MLB play-off games). However, in the event of a Mercy Rule being called, all bets will stand on the score at the time.

6½ Innings Rule

Total and Run Line betting (for seven innings games) – The game must go at least seven full innings (or 6½ innings if the team batting second is ahead) for bets to have action. However, in the event of a Mercy Rule being called, all bets will stand on the score at the time. Please note that suspended games do not carry over.

8½ Innings Rule

Total and Run Line betting – The game must go at least nine full innings (or 8½ innings if the team batting second is ahead) for bets to have action. However, in the event of a Mercy Rule being called, all bets will stand on the score at the time. Please note that suspended games do not carry over (with the exception of MLB play-off games).

The player must be in the official starting line-up for bets to have action. 8½ innings rule applies, unless settlement of bets is already determined, either by the player achieving the required outcome or by being substituted out of the game without having done so.
• *Total Bases are calculated by adding all hits a player makes as per Single = 1 Base, Double = 2, Triple = 3, Home Run = 4. Only these count.
• Starting Pitcher Completed Innings – Bets will be settled based on the number of full innings that the starting pitcher pitches. Bets will be void if the game is called or suspended with the starting pitcher still in the game and not yet having reached the required number of innings.

MLB Odds Boosts/Super Boosts:

• All Odds Boosts and Super Boosts will always exclude MLB ‘Write in Games’. These are games that are not on the original schedule and thus will never be considered for any promotional offer or boosted price given to customers.

Grand Salami (Total Runs and Away Runs vs Home Runs):

• Grand Salami bets will be decided by the total runs scored in all games of the specific league scheduled for that day.
• All scheduled games must go at least nine full innings (or 8½ innings if the team batting second is ahead) for bets on Grand Salami to have action, and be completed on its scheduled day (games can finish past midnight if started before).
• For the Grand Salami bets (Total Runs and Away Runs vs Home Runs), the home team runs will be the runs scored by the teams batting second in the first inning.

In the event of a Mercy Rule being applied, any uncompleted innings leader markets will be deemed to have been won by the match winner.
• Race to Markets/Team Totals/Total Hits – 8½ innings rule applies, unless settlement of bets is already determined, or if the natural conclusion of the game would have meant the outcome of bets would be determined.
• If a tied game is called or suspended, and the natural conclusion of a game requires a winner, then bets on the relevant Race to Quote will be made void. For example – a MLB game is called, or suspended, at 3-3 after 10 innings. In this instance, all bets on Race to 4 will be void. Race to 5/6/7 bets would be settled as ‘Neither’.
• Team to Score Next – In the event that the game is abandoned all markets on runs already scored will stand. Bets on the next run at time the game is called/suspended will be no action.
