2. Cancellation of the Bet and Main Rules of Determining
the Outcomes of the Bet
2.1. In the event of cancellation of a bet, the betting odds
shall be deemed to be equivalent to 1 and the stake amount shall be repaid to
the Customer.
2.2. The bet shall be cancelled if the betting event has not
occurred. The betting event shall be deemed to have not occurred if it has not
actually occurred irrespective of whether it had to occur or did not have to
occur. If the time of the betting event indicated in the betting offers differs
from the time of the betting event that has actually occurred, the betting
event shall be deemed to have not occurred.
2.3. The bet shall be cancelled if the participant of the
betting event for which/whom the bet was placed has not participated in the
betting event. The bet shall also be cancelled if the participant has not
participated in the betting event despite the fact that his participation was
published in the betting offers including the cases where the name, surname,
gender (where the participants of the events are men, no reference shall be
provided; where the participants of the event are women, the reference “Women”
shall be additionally inserted in the betting offers), age group (indicated in

betting event. In case of live betting, the bet shall be cancelled only in case
where the Customer has placed his/her bet or the Operator has accepted his/her
bet after the outcome of the event is clear (for example, bets for the winner
of the first half shall be cancelled if the bets are placed already well after
the end of the first half). In all cases, bets shall be cancelled if the Customer
has placed his/her bet or the Operator has accepted his/her bet well after the

whereas the betting odds of other outcomes included in the combination shall
not be subject to change.
2.10. In case of bets for sports matches, all betting
outcomes shall be set with regard to the regular time of the match, unless the
present Regulation provides for otherwise. If the Operator offers to place a
bet only for two outcomes of the bet (1 – first team, 2 – second team), i.e.
the Operator does not offer to place a bet for X, i.e. draw, only outcome 1
(first team) and outcome 2 (second team) of the betting event shall be set with
regard to the time of the whole match (i.e. the watch time with extensions) and
all other outcomes of the betting event shall be established with regard to the
regular time of the match (i.e. the match time without extensions), unless the
present Regulation provides for otherwise.
2.11. The betting events shall be deemed to have occurred
despite the fact that they have not actually finished if match has already
lasted at least:

FIBA and WNBA rules – 35 min.
Ice hockey (NHL) – 54 min.
European ice hockey – 50 min.

does not occur, the bet shall be cancelled.
2.13. In case of bets with the betting outcome “home/guest”,
the scores (goals and other results) of the home and guest teams during the
match time indicated in the betting offers shall be calculated. Bets with the
outcomes “home/guest” shall be accepted only before the start of the first
match.
2.14. The outcome of the betting event “advance” shall be
determined according to the final result of the match and only after the end of
a series of matches (if any).
2.15. In pursuance of ensuring fair betting, if the Customer
places a combined bet with the combination of the events determining each other
and the Operator erroneously accepts such bet, such bet shall be cancelled.
2.16. If a betting event is terminated and does not occur
within 12 hours from the start of the event, the bets for the outcomes of the
bet which have not occurred as a result of termination of the event or may be
influenced by the continuation of the match shall be cancelled. The bets for
the outcomes of the bet that have occurred before termination of the event, or
are not influenced by the continuation of the match, shall be accepted.
2.17. If several participants of the betting event or
outcomes are published as the winners of the betting event, the winning amount

from the number of the successful participants or outcomes. The recalculated
betting odds cannot be lower than 1.
3. Other Special Cases
3.1. Where the Operator is not convinced of reliability of
the outcome of the betting event published in the official sources of
information, it shall be entitled to defer confirmation of the result up to 3
(three) working days. The Operator shall publish this in website. Upon expiry
of the period of deferral, the winning shall be disbursed in accordance with
the adjusted data available in the official sources of information or, where
such adjustments are not available, according to the original data.
3.2. If the outcome of the betting event (a complaint has
been lodged) is contested before publication of the original match record
(statistical data published immediately after the match), disbursements of all
related winnings shall be deferred to the date of examination of the opposition
(complaint).
3.3. In case of cancellation or change of the result of the
betting event (for example, due to disqualification of a team or a Customer,
officiating, amendments to the terms and conditions etc.), the original result
that has been published before contesting it shall be deemed to be the valid
result of the betting event.
3.4. If the Operator makes a mistake in accepting the bet
placed by the Customer and finds out about such mistake before or after the
start of the betting event, the bet shall be cancelled. A mistake of the
Operator shall be deemed to include (but shall not be limited to) the following
cases: (i) setting the betting odds which is obviously erroneous; (ii) a comma
is missing; (iii) where due to a technical error in live betting the betting
odds in the betting offers are not updated and does not reflect the real course
of the match; (iv) the positive sign is reversed with the negative sign; (v)
the additional betting event offers do not meet the main offers of the outcomes
of the same event (winner, handicap, total etc.); (vi) the odds of the outcome
significantly differ from the odds of the same outcome in the offers of other
betting operators (e.g. Bet365, Pinnacle, etc.).
4. Betting Offers
4.1. The standard scheme of betting offers shall be as
follows: Data on the betting event: preliminary date and time, type of sports,
name of the tournament; Name of the first team; Name of the second team; and
Odds of the outcomes of the betting events and the terms and conditions in
relation to the outcomes of the betting event.
4.2. The abbreviations typically used in the betting offers:
1 – First team 2 – Second team X – Draw 1X – First team or draw 2X – Second
team or draw 12 – First team or second team
4.2.1. The Operator shall be entitled to make special
betting offers to a separate group of Customers (for example, Customers born on
the respective day, Customers who registered their accounts on specific date
and according to other objective criteria). 1.3.2. Grammatical mistake in the
betting offers which does not change the meaning of the terms and conditions of
betting cannot be deemed to be a reason for cancellation of the betting.
4.3. Type of Bets
4.3. 1. The “single bet” shall mean a bet with one outcome
of the betting chosen. The winning shall be established by multiplying the
stake amount by the pre-determined betting odds and shall depend only on the
correct guess of the outcome of the betting event. An example of the single bet
could be as follows: Suppose that the betting offers include around 100 sports
betting events and the Customer chooses one event Barcelona - Real M. and wants
to place a bet for the victory of Barcelona. The betting odds set for the
victory of Barcelona in the betting offers are 3.3. This means that in case of
placing a bet of GBP 10 for the victory of Barcelona and if Barcelona wins, the
Customer would win GBP 33 (10×3.3=33).
4.3.2. The “combined bet” shall mean a bet with more than
one outcome of the betting event chosen. A combined bet shall be deemed to be
successful if all outcomes of the betting event included in the combined bet
are correctly guessed. In case of a combined bet, the Customer may choose from
2 to 30 outcomes of the betting event. If at least one guess indicated in the
betting slip is incorrect, it shall be deemed that the Customer has lost the
total combined bet and no winning including the stake amount shall be disbursed
to him. When calculating the winning the stake amount shall be multiplied by
the total (multiplied with each other) betting odds of the chosen outcomes of
the single betting events included in the combined bet. The events determining
each other cannot be combined. The events determining each other shall be such
betting events where the outcome of one betting event has a direct impact on
the outcome of the other betting event (for example, the following outcome of
the betting events cannot be combined: outcome “Žalgiris will become the
champion of the Lithuanian Basketball League (LKL)” and the outcome “Žalgiris
will win in the semi-finals of the Lithuanian Basketball League (LKL)”, since
the above events determine each other, i.e. Žalgiris cannot become a champion
if it is defeated in the semi-finals of the Lithuanian Basketball League (LKL)”).
An example of the combined bet could be as follows: Suppose that the Customer
has chosen three betting events: Barcelona – Real M., Juventus – Inter and
Žalgiris – FBK Kaunas. From the point of view of the Customer, the home teams
should be the winners (the home teams are indicated first in all betting
events). The betting odds of Barcelona are 3, the betting odds of Juventus are
2, and the betting odds of Žalgiris are 3. If the Customer places a bet of GBP
10 and the Customer is successful, the stake amount shall be multiplied by the
product of the betting odds. In case of correct guess of all outcomes of the
betting event, the Customer’s winning would be GBP 180 (10x(3x2x3) = 180); if
the guess of at least one is incorrect, the Customer shall lose and the stake
amount shall belong to the Operator.
4.3.3. The “systemic bet” shall mean a bet with more than
one outcome of the betting event chosen. In case of a systemic bet, each
outcome of the betting event shall be at least once linked to another outcome. The
winning shall be determined by adding up the winnings for all guessed outcomes.
The number of betting events and the number of possible not guessed outcomes
shall be chosen by the Customer. The bet shall be characterized by the
following parameters: The number of betting events which may not be lower than
3; and The number of possible mistakes. An example of the systemic bet could be
as follows: Suppose that the Customer has chosen a systemic bet “2 of 3”. This
shall imply that the systemic bet includes 3 betting events and the bet may be
successful if the Customer makes not more than one mistake. Thus, for example,
in case of a systemic bet for the betting event Barcelona – Real M. the victory
of Barcelona with the odds 2.5 is chosen (Outcome A), in the betting event
Juventus – Inter the victory of Juventus with the odds 3.0 is chosen (Outcome
B) and in the betting event Žalgiris – FBK Kaunas the victory of Žalgiris with
the odds 4.0 is chosen (Outcome C); in case of choosing the system “2 of 3” and
placing a bet of GBP 1 for each combination, the maximum possible winning shall
be as follows: (Outcome A x Outcome B) x GBP 1 + (Outcome B x Outcome C) x GBP
1 + (Outcome C x Outcome A) x GBP 1 = (2.5 x 3.0) x GBP 1 + (3.0 x 4.0) x GBP 1
+ (4.0 x 2.5) x GBP 1 = GBP 7.5 + GBP 12 + GBP 10 = GBP 29.5. If the Customer
fails to guess at least one event, the odds of the outcome of each not guessed
betting event shall be deemed to be equal to 0. For example, in case of a
systemic bet, the Customer has failed to guess Outcome A, then the winning for
the above bet shall be as follows: (Outcome A x Outcome B) x GBP 1 + (Outcome B
x Outcome C) x GBP 1 + (Outcome C x Outcome A) x GBP 1 = (0 x 3.0) x GBP 1 +
(3.0 x 4.0) x GBP 1 + (4.0 x 0) x GBP 1 = GBP 12. If the Customer fails to
guess two events in the system “2 of 3”, the Customer shall lose the systemic
bet.
4.4. Other Possible Options of the Outcomes of Betting
Events
4.4.1. The possible options of the outcomes of betting
events shall be published in the betting offers.
4.4.2. The options of the outcomes of betting events
typically used in the betting offers shall be as follows:
4.4.2.1 The “handicap” shall mean an option of
interpretation of the outcome of the betting event where, after the outcome of
the betting event, the respective number (goals, scores etc.) is added to (if
the sign “-“ is indicated, the respective number should be deducted) the final
result of the chosen team or participant. The following options of handicap
shall be distinguished:
4.4.2.1.3 The “Asian handicap” shall mean an option where,
in case of choosing the option of interpretation of the outcome of the betting
event “Asian handicap” where after the outcome of the betting event the
respective handicap (goals, scores etc.) is added to (if the sign “-“ is
indicated, the respective number should be deducted) the final result of the
chosen team or participant. If after summing up the result of the betting event
with the handicap, the result of the betting event (including the handicap) is
to the benefit of the chosen team or the participant, the bet shall be deemed
to be successful. If, taking into account the handicap, the result is to the
benefit of the opposite team or participant, the bet shall be deemed to be
lost. If, having evaluated the handicap, the result becomes a tie, the bet
shall be deemed to be equal to 1 (one). (Example) If in case of a match
Žalgiris (Kaunas) - Lietuvos Rytas (Vilnius) the Customer chooses the handicap
of Žalgiris (Kaunas) (3), if the match ends up with the result 75:72, the
Customer betting slip shall win, since, taking into account the handicap for
the benefit of the chosen team the result would be 78:72. If the result of the
match is 75:80, the Customer betting slip shall lose because, taking into
account the handicap, the result would be favourable to the opposite team, i.e.
78:80. If the match ends up with the result 75:78, the bet would be equivalent
to 1 (one) because, taking into account the handicap, the match would end in a
tie, i.e. 78:78.
4.4.2.1.3 The “3-way handicap” shall mean an option of
interpretation of the outcome of the betting event “3-way handicap” where,
after the outcome of the betting event, the respective handicap (scores etc.)
is added to (if the sign “-“ is indicated, the respective number should be
deducted) the final result of the chosen team or participant. If after summing
up the result of the betting event with the handicap, the result of the betting
event (including the handicap) is beneficial to the chosen team or the
participant, the bet shall be deemed to be successful. If, taking into account
the handicap, the result is to the benefit of the opposite team or participant,
the bet shall be deemed to be lost. If, having evaluated the handicap, the
result becomes a tie, the bet for a draw with the chosen handicap shall win.
(Example) If in case of a match Arsenal - Liverpool the Customer chooses the
handicap of Arsenal (-1) and if the match ends up with the result 2:0, the
Customer betting slip shall win, since, taking into account the handicap to the
benefit of the chosen team the result would be 1:0. If the result of the match
is 1:1, the Customer betting slip shall lose because, taking into account the
handicap, the result would be favourable to the opposite team, i.e. 0:1. If the
match ends up with the result 2:1, the Customer betting slip shall lose
because, taking into account the handicap, the match would end in a tie, i.e.
1:1.
4.4.2.1.3 The “double Asian handicap” shall mean an option
where, in case of choosing the option of interpretation of the outcome of the
betting event “double Asian handicap” where, after the outcome of the betting
event, the respective handicap is added to (if the sign “-“ is indicated, the
respective handicap should be deducted) the final result of the chosen team or
participant and the stake amount is divided into two equal parts. For example,
in case of offering “double Asian handicap” (-1,-1.5) and a bet of GBP 100 for
such outcome is placed, it shall be deemed that a bet of GBP 50 is placed for
the handicap (-1) and a bet of GBP 50 is placed for the handicap (-1.5). Since
“double Asian handicap” is a double offer, the final winning odds may be lower
than 1 and the winning amount may be lower than the stake amount. If, after
summing up the result of the betting event with the handicap, the result of the
betting event (with the handicap) is to the benefit of the chosen team or
participant, the bet shall be deemed to be successful. If, taking into account
the handicap, the result is to the benefit of the opposite team, the bet shall
be deemed to be lost. If, having evaluated the handicap, the result becomes a
tie, the bet shall be deemed to be equal to 1 (one). (Example) A bet of GBP 100
for the betting event Arsenal - Chelsea for the “double Asian handicap”
(-1,-1.5) of the team Arsenal with the odds 1.8 and the result of the match is
2:1. In such case, a bet of GBP 50 for the handicap of Arsenal (-1) shall be
equal to 1, whereas a bet of GBP 50 for the handicap of Arsenal (-1.5) shall be
deemed to be lost. A winning of GBP 50 shall be disbursed.
4.4.2.1 The “total” shall mean that in case of choosing the
option of interpretation of the outcome of the betting event “total”, the
number of goals (scores, seconds etc.) during the betting event that has occurred
shall be counted.
4.4.2.2 The “Asian total” shall mean that in case of
choosing the option of interpretation of the outcome of the betting event
“Asian total”, the number of goals of the participants during the event shall
be counted and the stake amount shall be divided into two equal parts. For
example, if the offered “Asian total” is higher than (2, 2.5) and a bet of GBP
100 is placed for such outcome, it shall be deemed that a bet of GBP 50 for
“total” shall be higher than (2) and a bet of GBP 50 for the “total” shall be
higher than (2.5). If the number of goals during the match is higher than the
value of “total”, the bet shall be deemed to be successful, if the number of
goals is lower than the value of “total”, the bet shall be deemed to be lost; if
the number of goals is equal to the value of “total”, the stake amount shall be
deemed to be equal to 1 (one). As “Asian total” is a double offer, the final
winning odds must be lower than 1 and the winning amount must be lower than the
stake amount. (Example) A bet of GBP 100 for the event Arsenal - Chelsea for
the “Asian total” (2, 2.5) with the odds 1.9 and the result of the match is
2:0. In such case, a bet of GBP 50 for the “total” (2) shall be equivalent to 1
and a bet of GBP 50 for “total” (2.5) shall be lost. The winning of GBP 50
shall be disbursed.
4.4.2.3 The “individual total” shall be an option where the
procedure for guessing the option of interpretation of the outcome of the
betting event is the same as in case “total”, but only for one team or a
separate participant of the betting event.
4.4.2.4 The “advance” shall mean a placing of bet in
tournaments where the event consists of several matches and it is offered to
guess which team (person) advances to the next stage.
4.4.2.5 The “comparison” shall mean a guess that one team
(Participant of the match) will perform better (more effective) than the other
one, or that one match will be more effective than the other match.
4.4.2.6 The “half time/match” shall mean an option where it
is offered to guess the outcome of the first part of the match and the end of
the match.
4.4.2.7 The “will/will not score (or yes/no)” shall mean an
option where it is offered to guess if the particular team scores a goal during
the respective football, ice hockey, polo or other match in which goals are
scores and the time limit within which the first goal or the last goal will be
scored with one team chosen or in all matches. It shall be offered to guess for
the whole match or for the particular time interval, for example, that the
first goal will be scored within the time period from 1 to 30 min.
4.4.2.8 The “home/guest (or host or home/road)” shall mean
an option where it is offered to guess several betting events that are summed
up. The “home” team shall include the teams of a separate championship,
tournament that play at home. The “guest” team shall include all teams of a
tournament, championship that play outside their state. The “home” team shall
be indicated as first in the betting offers and the betting slip. For example,
the “handicap” of home/guest scores, the “individual total” of the home/guest
teams, “total” of the home/guest teams.
4.4.2.9 The “range” shall mean an option where it is offered
to guess the result of the betting event which would fall within the range of
results indicated in the betting offers.
4.4.2.10 The “additional betting event offers” shall mean
additional outcomes “total”, “handicaps”, “individual total”, “half time/match”
“first match quarter” and other possible options of the outcome of the betting
event.
4.5. Separate Types of Bets
4.5.1. If the provisions concerning operation of a betting
event envisaged in the present section hereof are contrary to the general
provisions, the betting operation provisions set out in the present section
hereof shall prevail. Live Betting
4.5.2. In case of live betting, bets on the outcomes of the
betting event with the possible option “handicap” may be presented in the
following two ways:
4.5.2.1 Indicating two possible outcomes: “first participant
handicap” and “second participant handicap”.
4.5.2.2 Indicating three possible outcomes: “first
participant handicap”, “draw with handicap” and “second participant handicap”.
If, in case of live betting, two possible outcomes of the betting event are
offered and the result of the handicap indicated in the betting offers is
achieved, the bet shall be cancelled. If, in case of live betting, three
possible outcomes of the betting event are offered and the result of the
handicap indicated in the betting offers is achieved, the bet “draw with
handicap” shall be deemed to be successful and the bets “first participant
handicap”, “second participant handicap” shall be deemed to have lost.
4.6. Sports Betting Thresholds and Odds
4.6.1. The main principles of formation of the betting odds
shall be as follows:
4.6.2.1 The betting odds shall range from 1 to 15,000. In
case of a combined bet, the maximum betting odds shall be 7,500.
4.6.2.2 The greater the mathematical probability of guessing
the outcome of the betting event, the lower the betting odds shall be. The

stake amounts for an individual Customer. The Operator shall be entitled to
restrict participation in remote gaming for the persons who breach the
provisions of the Regulation or play in a bad faith manner. The Operator shall
also be entitled to limit the maximum stake amount for such players without any
further notice.
Bandy
Tennis
Tennis - bets involving handicaps and totals are settled according to the entire match time. If the result including handicap is tied or the total is hit, the bet is refunded. If the bet is included in a combination, the odds are turned into 1.00. If it’s a match between teams (like Davis Cup) and one or more players are not participating in a match and are replaced by others, the bets remain valid.
If it’s a doubles match and one of the players is not participating in the match and is substituted by another player, the bets on this match are refunded (odds turn into 1.00). If in the moment of betting there are no certain players announced, the bets remain valid. If the match format changes (for ex. 2 sets instead of 3), the bets on such match are refunded (odds are turned into 1.00.
In case the match is not fully completed due to player’s early retirement (for example due to the injury), the bets on the winner of the match are voided and refunded. The bets on the statistics of the match (aces, double faults, serve speed and similar), which are not known (or are affected) until the early retirement, are voided and refunded. The bets on the statistics of the match (aces, double faults, serve speed and similar) that are known (or are not affected) until the early retirement, remain valid. In case a player, who started the tournament, withdraws due to an injury or any other reason, all bets related to their performance in the tournament remain valid.

Place Betting
We offer 2, 3 or 4 place betting, depending on the number of runners and whether the race is a ‘Handicap’ race or not. We aim to mirror the number of place terms offered on the each-way market. Unlike each-way betting, where the place terms depend on the conditions of the race at the off, Place Only bets ‘stick’ at the time of placement, so the customer gets whatever terms were available when he placed his bet. Rule 4 applies to place betting markets also, where there are non-runners. The deduction corresponds to the price of the withdrawn horse at the time of withdrawal:
Price at withdrawal | 2 place | 3 Places | 4 Places |

We treat dead heats by dividing the stake pro-rata by the number of dead-heating runners. For example, stakes are halved on a 2-way dead heat, divided by 3 on a 3-way dead heat, and so on. It is important to note that we divide the STAKE, not the ODDS..
Starting Price (SP)
The SP is the ‘starting price’, when placing a bet on horse racing or greyhounds we will be offering a fixed odds price and a starting price (SP). This price is taken from the racetrack. With UK and Ireland horse racing when you choose SP it doesn’t matter what the price is when the bet is placed, it is the price of the horse when the race starts that matters. This is the price we will pay out at.
Abandoned/Postponed
Bets will be void if:
- The race is abandoned/called off.
- The race is declared as void.
- Any of the race conditions change
- Entries change
- If the overnight declarations do not stand, all bets are void.
If a race is postponed to another date and final declarations stand, then bets which have placed remain valid. However, single bets are void. Any selection involved in multiple bet will be treated as a non-runner if:
- The race is abandoned.
- The race is declared as void.
- The conditions of the race are altered after bets are made (as defined under Tattersalls rules).
- The venue is altered.
- The running surface is altered (e.g. Turf to Dirt/All Weather or vice versa).
We only settle races once a weighed in result has been called. Before the ‘weighed in’ announcement, there may be a ‘stewards enquiry’, which is an enquiry held by the racecourse stewards. It is possible for the finishing order to be amended after a stewards enquiry, which is why we only settle bets after the ‘weighed in’ announcement.
Each way BettingAn Each Way bet is made up of 2 parts: a ‘win’ bet and a ‘place’ bet. Each part is an equal stake, for example a £10 Each Way bet will have £10 on the ‘Win' and £10 on the ‘Place' (a total stake of £20).
The ‘Win' part of the bet is on the selection to win the event, and the ‘Place' part is on the selection to finish either first or in one of the predetermined places.
If the selection wins, both the ‘Win' and ‘Place' parts of the bet will pay out. But if the selection only places, the bet will lose the ‘Win' part but get paid out on the ‘Place'.
Place terms will be governed by the number of runners that come under Starters’ Orders, and not the number of runners at the time of bet placement. For example, an each-way bet struck with 8 runners in the field at the time of placement, which subsequently becomes a 7 runner race due to a non-runner or late withdrawal, will be settled at 1⁄4 odds 1,2.
The odds for the ‘Place' are given as a fraction of the odds for the ‘Win' and will be displayed when bets are struck.
For bets placed each-way that result in a field size of 4 runners or less, the whole stake is settled as win only. For multiples, bets will continue to be settled as win-win, place-place, however the place-place part of the bet will be treated as win only, only for the race with 4 or fewer runners.
For horse racing, the ‘Place' part of Each Way bets will be given the following Place terms unless stated otherwise:
Non-Handicap Races:
2 - 4 Runners - Win Only
5 - 7 Runners - 1/4 the Odds 1, 2
8 or more Runners - 1/5 the Odds 1, 2, 3
Handicap Races:
2 - 4 Runners - Win Only
5 - 7 Runners - 1/4 the Odds 1, 2
8 - 11 Runners - 1/5 the Odds 1, 2, 3
12 - 15 Runners - 1/4 the Odds 1, 2, 3
16 or more Runners - 1/4 the Odds 1, 2, 3, 4
