Baseball rules

Winners and Losers are official after 5 innings of play unless the home team is leading after 4Â½ innings. If a game is called or suspended, the score after the last full inning determines the winner. If the home team scores to tie - or takes the lead in the bottom half of the inning and the inning is not completed, the score at the time the game is called determines the winner. Money will be refunded if the home team ties the game and it is then suspended. Events will not carry over to the following day (unless otherwise specified). betsws.ag does not recognize suspended games, protests, overturned decisions, etc. for betting purposes.

When betting on the total runs (over/under) the game must go 9 innings (8Â½ if the home team is ahead) to have action. Wagers on total runs will be refunded if a pitcher change occurs prior to both listed pitchers throwing at least one pitch. Rules for the run line wagers are the same as those for baseball totals.

Game must be played on scheduled date and site.

**During the MLB Playoffs, all wagers will have action until the game is played to completion, regardless of their duration or the day on which they end.**

Pitcher Selection

Baseball wagers will be accepted in the following manner:

Action: Team against team, regardless of the starting pitcher. "Action" bets will be computed by the opening price with the new pitcher. A pitcher is deemed a starting pitcher after throwing one pitch.

Overnight Baseball: Due to scheduling changes, an overnight game may become part of a doubleheader. When this occurs, all overnight bets are action if originally listed pitchers square off in either game.

One specified pitcher: A wager on or against a specified pitcher, regardless of the other starting pitcher.

Both specified pitchers (listed): If starting pitchers are not exactly as listed on betting display board and/or your ticket, your bet will be deemed "no action".

Note: If there is a pitching change prior to the game, money odds may be adjusted. If one scheduled pitcher starts against any unscheduled pitcher, "action" wagers will be computed by the opening price with the new pitcher. A pitcher is deemed a starting pitcher after throwing one pitch.

Betting on Baseball

Baseball Betting | Money Line: Betting on baseball is done by risking more money than the win amount on favorites (Mets) or risking less to win more on dogs or underdogs (teams not favored to win).

Example:

Mets - 140
Reds + 120

If you wager on the Mets -140 you lay $140 to win $100. If you wager on the Reds +120 you lay $100 to win $120.

Baseball Betting | Totals Over/Under: There is a standard 20 cent line.

Example:

Mets 7 over -120
7 under Even Money

If you take the Mets over 7 runs you lay $120 to win $100. If you take the Reds under 7 you lay $100 to win $100 (even money). The team doesn't matter. You are only betting on the total runs of the game.

Baseball Betting | Run Line Betting: A baseball Run Line bet is a combination of the point spread and the money line. The team wagered on must win by the point spread while the amount wagered is determined by the money line odds.

Example:

Braves -1 1/2 +130
Pirates +1 1/2 -150

If you wager on the Braves you must win by 2 or more runs. You would lay $100 to win $130. If you wager on the Pirates they cannot lose by 2 or more runs. You would lay $150 to win $100.

Betting on Hockey

Line Types: We offer 3 different types of lines for Hockey; The Canadian Line, 3 Way Option), and Straight Money Lines.

Hockey Betting | Canadian Line: The Canadian line is a combination of a goal and money line. The money line is a 20 cent line for straight bets.

Example:

Boston Bruins +1 1/2 -140
L.A. Kings -1 1/2 +120

If betting on the Kings the customer would give-up a goal and a half and would risk $100 to win $120, the Kings must win by at least two goals. If betting on the Bruins the customer would get a goal and half but would risk $140 to win $100.

Hockey Betting | Money Line: All money line options are prices to win the game outright, according to NHL rules.

Example:

Boston Bruins +110
L.A. Kings -130

If you select the Bruins to win the game, betting $100 would win you $110. If you select the Kings to win, you would need to risk $130 to win $100

Hockey Betting | Totals Over/Under

Example:

Bruins +1 1/2 -140 5 OVER -130
Kings -1 1/2 +120

As well as having favorites on sides you also have favorites on totals, in this example over the total of five goals is indicated as the favorite in which case the customer would lay $130 to win $100. If betting on the game to go under five goals the customer goes with the underdog so he/she receives a larger return in this case risking $100 to win $110. If there is no money line indicated the total has a "FLAT" line or -110 whether betting over or under, in which case the customer would lay $110 to win $100 either way. When you wager on total goals, if the score falls on the number in this case five, it will be "no action".

Hockey Parlays Betting | Hockey Parlays

With hockey parlays you can combine anywhere from 2 to 8 teams into a single wager resulting in higher betting payouts as in baseball parlays. Note: Hockey parlays are calculated as they are in baseball. Maximum parlay payout is $10,000.

To win the race: 60% of the starting field must start the race for action.

Top 3 (podium) finishes: 80% of the starting field must start for action.

Drivers Matchups: Both drivers must start the race for action.

THE FORMATION LAP IS NOT CONSIDERED PART OF THE RACE FOR WAGERING PURPOSES.

Soccer Rules

Money line wagering on soccer offers a draw line as well as sides. In the event of a draw example: (1-1), all bets on either of the sides will be graded as losers. Again, in the event of a draw, only wagers placed on the draw line will be graded as a win.

The result of the game is decided after 90 minutes of play plus injury time. Extra time / overtime / golden goal is not taken into consideration for soccer bets unless otherwise stipulated.

If any match is abandoned or postponed all bets will be void unless the relevant market result has already happened. For example, "first goal scorer" betting will stand if a goal has already been scored.

Where a venue is changed, bets will stand unless the game is to be player at the original away team's ground in which case all bets will be void.

Asian Handicap

Many matches are handicapped in ½ and ¼ intervals; both of which eliminate the possibility of a push since no one can score a half-goal. Quarter (¼) handicaps split the bet between the two closest ½ intervals. For instance, a $1000 bet with a handicap of 1¾ is the same as betting $500 at 1½ and $500 at 2. With ¼ handicap bets, you can win and draw (win ½ of wager) or lose and draw (lose ½ wager). The ¼-goal handicap may be expressed by some bookmakers as "0 and ½", or as "pk and ½" (for "pick-em") - especially for bookmakers whose systems are designed for sports like American football and basketball, where bets have a handicap that is designed to make the odds as close to even as possible.

The bettor's stake is automatically divided equally and placed as 2 separate bets. This means that with a handicap point of 0-0.5 or 0 and ½, half of your stake is on the 0 point handicap and the other half.

Example:

Match: Everton vs. Newcastle United - Handicap: Newcastle +1.0, +1.5

Explained: This handicap states that half of your bet goes on Newcastle to win, draw, or lose by less than 1 goal; and half on Newcastle to win, draw, or lose by less than 1.5 goals.

eSports rules

The start dates and times displayed on our website for E-Sport matches are an indication only and are not guaranteed to be correct.

Handicap betting: A spread in E-Sports can be Rounds/Maps or other counting measures dependent on the game. The spread will only be referred to as the spread. (For example, in Counter Strike the spread will be rounds won, while in Starcraft 2 the spread would be maps).

Handicapping is a way of making a sports contest more even and thus more interesting as a betting object. In E-Sports betting, this is done by awarding one of the teams/players, the underdog, some maps/rounds ahead.

If Player A wins the match by two maps or more, Player A bettors win and Player B bettors lose. If Player A wins by exactly one map or Player B wins, Player B bettors win and PlayerA bettors lose.

Total Betting: A total in E-sports can be Rounds/Maps or other counting measures dependent on the game. The total will only be referred to as the total. If either player wins 2-0 all bets on under 2.5 will win, while bets on the over will lose. If either player wins 2-1 all bets on the over win, while bets on the under lose.

If a map is not completed because of a player retirement or disqualification, all bets on the outcome will have action and will be validated based on the official declared winner. Counter-Strike maps are exceptions to this rule, for which all moneyline, spread and total bets are canceled if a team retires or is disqualified before all scheduled map rounds are played.

Should a player/team withdraw before a tournament begins, or retire during a tournament, bets on that player/team to win the tournament, or to advance in tournament, will be canceled and monies refunded.

If the respective player/team withdraws before the tournament begins while being listed as “must start”, then wagers on whether a player/team advances in tournament or wins the tournament, will have no action and monies refunded – this applies to all players/teams participant in the tournament.

If the announced number of maps/rounds is changed all bets on the handicap or total are cancelled. Bets on the moneyline (outcome of the match) have action.

If a player or team receives a walkover or win by admin decision on at least one map, all wagers on the series (moneyline, spread and total) will be canceled and monies refunded. In CS:GO, if a team retires or is disqualified before all scheduled rounds on a map are played, all wagers on the series (moneylines, spread and total) will be canceled and monies refunded as well.
