Tennis Bet Builders

All Tennis Bet Builder selections must win (no ties, draws or pushes) for a bet to be deemed a winner. A selection that does not win will be settled as a loser.

If one or more selections in any bet are resulted as void due to the player(s) in question not participating in a game, the entire bet will be resulted as void. Selections voided for other reasons (typically game abandonment or postponement) will be resulted according to the rules outlined in “Abandoned Matches”.

If penalty point(s) are awarded by the umpire, all bets on that game will stand.


Tie Break

All tennis matches will be settled on the official declared result including any tie breaker.

Tie break points will not be counted for total game points markets.

Set Markets

All set market selections include the tie break if scenario occurs. For example, Set 1 total aces selection would include total aces scored in the 1st set including the tiebreak.

Player Specific Markets

All player selections will be considered active after first point of the match is played. If player was to retire hurt/walkover before the match, selections specific to that player and match will be void. However, if scenarios had already occurred before Player retired, then those bets would be resulted as usual. For instance, a selection on player A to win 1st Set, where Player A wins 1st Set, but then goes on to retire hurt in the 2nd set and did not return to the game, this bet would be a winner. However, if bet was for Player A to win 2nd Set, this bet would be resulted as void.

Postponed, Delayed & Incomplete Matches

If there is a change to the schedule or the day of the event, then the event’s start-time will be updated, and the markets will be left open. If a match is postponed or incomplete, all bets will stand if the game is subsequently resumed during the tournament.

In case of any delay in the start of a match or a suspension (rain, darkness etc.) all markets remain unsettled and all bets will be settled after the match is resumed and completed.

Abandoned Matches

If a game is abandoned prior to commencement, and it falls within the same tournament rule for postponed matches, then follow rules as described above. If it is halted during play, and then resumed and completed, all bets will stand.

If every selection within a Bet Builder on the game is already a winner where the fact of abandonment had no impact on the outcome of each selection, the Bet Builder in its entirety will be treated as a winner. For example, a 2-leg Bet Builder containing an over total match games selection and a certain player to have X aces, in a game where the required games have been reached and the player did have X aces before the game was subsequently abandoned, will be treated as a winner. In this case, the abandonment had no impact on either selection. The same would not apply to an under total games selection where a game is abandoned while the total score is still under the chosen number, as the abandonment would impact that outcome.

If a single selection of a Bet Builder has lost and a match is then abandoned, the Bet Builder will be treated as a loser, where regardless of the fact of abandonment, the selection(s) in question had been irrevocably concluded. For example, a Bet Builder including a first player to have ace selection, in a game where the other player had an ace first and the match was subsequently then abandoned, will be treated as a loser. In this case, the bet had already lost, and this outcome could not be affected in any way by whether the game was subsequently abandoned or not.

If there are no losing selections within a Bet Builder and at least one void selection at the time of a match abandonment, the Bet Builder will be treated as void. This rule applies where one or more selections are still undecided at abandonment, and may have won or lost if the game had been completed as scheduled. For example, a Bet Builder including an over total match games selection, in a game abandoned while the total games are still below the required amount, will be treated as void. In this case, the total points selection was still undecided and may have won or lost but for the abandonment, so the bet will be voided.

Venue or Surface Changes

If the venue or surface of a match is changed from the one advertised, all bets on that match will be voided.
