1) This set of terms and conditions govern the use of the Unibet at Swinomish Casino & Lodge Sports Book (“Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook” or the “Operator”) (the “Sports Book Rules”). When placing a bet with Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook, the Account Holder or Retail Patron (together, a “Wagering Patron”) agrees that they have read, understood and agree to be bound, by these Terms and Conditions in addition to Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook’s general Terms and Conditions, available at https://www.swinomishcasinolodge.com/unibet-at-swinomish-sportsbook.
2) The use of the Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook is subject to the regulations imposed by Washington State Gambling Commission (the “State Gaming Agency”) and/or the Swinomish Tribal Gaming Commission (the “Tribal Gaming Agency”). To the extent that any decision issued by the State Gaming Agency and/or the Tribal Gaming Agency conflicts, or is inconsistent, with these Sports Book Rules, the decision issued by the State Gaming Agency and/or the Tribal Gaming Agency will supersede any relevant clause(s) of these Sports Book Rules.
3) Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook reserves the right to make changes to betting limits and offerings.
4) Any reference in these Sports Book Rules, to words/objects that appear in singular, also applies to plural. References to gender are non-binding and to be treated for information purposes only. All references to “including” shall mean “including without limitation”.
5) Should it be applicable, any reference to Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook’s website and its contents is also to be considered as applicable for Casino/offline/land-based environments, including Self-Service Terminals (“SST”), Over The Counter (“OTC”) and Bring Your Own Device (“BYOD”), and the Swinomish Casino & Lodge’s website.
3) Definitions
1) “Error” is a [mistake, misprint, misinterpretation, mishearing, misreading, mistranslation, spelling mistake, technical hazard, registration error, transaction error, manifest error, force majeure and/or similar], which may or may not be apparent to Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook and/or the Wagering Patron at the relevant time [which has caused or resulted in bets [being offered and/or accepted]].
Examples of errors include, but are not limited to:
· As a result of failure of established risk management controls.
· As a result of inappropriate manipulation of offers or settlement procedures as well as any fraudulent activity.
· Incorrect payouts.
· Cyber attacks.
· Bets accepted;
During technical problems that would otherwise not have been accepted; at odds/prices that have been increased, improved or enhanced from the odds/prices that would have otherwise been offered.
· On events/offers in which the outcome has already been decided or concluded (past posting), or in relation to which Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook had suspended betting.
· On events/offers after the event/match/offer has started (except for live betting bet types).
· On markets/events containing participants that are not part of the event.
· Otherwise than in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations.
· At odds that are materially different from those available in the general betting industry at the time the bet was accepted, whereby Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook will use a survey of peer betting industry operators, to determine whether odds offered were “materially different”.
· At odds which reflect an incorrect score, standing or ranking situation, including where incorrect odds are offered, as a result of any errors or omissions made in respect of the announcing, publishing, or reporting of a score, standing or ranking situation.
· At incorrect odds where it is clear that the actual chances of the event occurring at the time the bet was accepted were materially different.
2) “Influence Betting” is an act, prohibited by Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook, where a Wagering Patron, or parties acting in association with a Wagering Patron, can influence, or have influenced, the outcome of a match or an event - directly or indirectly.
3) “Syndicate Betting” is an act, prohibited by Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook, where Wagering Patrons act together to place a bet or series of bets on the same event or competition, or when a Wagering Patron places a bet on behalf, or for the intended benefit, of another individual or other individuals. Where there is evidence of Wagering Patrons acting together in this manner Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook reserves the right to make the relevant bets void and/or withhold payment of returns pending the outcome of subsequent investigations to determine whether (in Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook's sole opinion), Syndicate Betting has taken place.
4) Bet Acceptance
1) Each bet constitutes a legally binding betting contract between the Wagering Patron and Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook. The formation of such betting contract requires the following phases:
i. The advertisement of a betting market.
ii. The request to place a bet or wager on the betting market by the Wagering Patron.
iii. The acceptance and confirmation of the bet or wager by Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook.
2) A bet is not accepted and confirmed until a betting ticket has been issued reflecting the bet. Once a betting ticket has been issued, the contract will be considered duly formed. In cases of uncertainty about whether a bet has been accepted, the betting ticket shall serve as confirmation. No bet or wager will be considered as completed unless a betting ticket has been issued and provided to the Wagering Patron.
Unless accepted in Error, once accepted, a bet cannot be withdrawn by the Wagering Patron. A wagering ticket printed at a Self-Service Terminal cannot be voided once printed. It is the responsibility of the Wagering Patron to ensure details of the bets placed are correct.
3) Should a dispute arise about the acceptance (or lack thereof) of any bet, or the time at which any bet was placed, Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook’s transaction log database will be the ultimate authority in determining such matters.
4) Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook may refuse to accept any bets at any time and for any reason including in order to:
a) Preserve the viability of the offered market (for example, without limitation, in relation to events where there is an extraordinary or unbalanced number of bets on the same market).
b) Protect the Wagering Patron (e.g., without limitation, in relation to the event in which the Wagering Patron displays pathological or problem gaming behaviour and refuses to self-exclude).
c) Protect other users (e.g., without limitation, in connection with the event in which the Wagering Patron has a betting pattern that could adversely affect the regular betting activity of other users).
d) To protect Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook (for example, without limitation, in the event that the Wagering Patron exhibits money laundering, collusive or fraudulent behaviour, we suspect that Wagering Patron is using a third party's account, is allowing a third party to use the account, or is using automated means, bots, software or similar means, or engaging in arbitrage).
5) Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook, depending on the level of risk, instead of refusing a bet or a wager, may accept the bet request placed by the Wagering Patron up to a certain amount thereof.
5) Betting and Payout Limitations
1) In order to guarantee the viability of each market, to avoid potential cases of fraud and match-fixing, and to be able to make a correct estimate of the risk involved in each product offered, Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook will limit the net payout (the payout after the stake has been deducted) on any bet or combination of bets by one Wagering Patron at $500,000 for any bets placed or settled within a 24-hour timeframe on a Sports Wagering Kiosk.
2) To comply with legal and regulatory requirements, Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook shall not accept anonymous wagers on a single event, either in an individual transaction or in the aggregate, of $2,000 or more. Wagers of $2,000 or more may not be made at a wagering kiosk and may only be made at a staffed wagering window within the Gaming Facility and shall require the Wagering Patron to present valid identification pursuant to the Swinomish Casino & Lodge Identification Policy.
3) Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook determines that the minimum and maximum bet stakes accepted will be dependent on the markets and bets proposed.
4) Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook reserves the right to decline, all, or part of, any bet requested. This includes the possibility that a “System bet” as defined in <Section B, Para 4> is not accepted in full, either in terms of stakes or combinations included in said “System bet”. All bets placed through any Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook platform or wagering method, also including bets requesting manual approval, may be subject to a time delay prior to acceptance, the length of which may vary.
5) All odds offered are subject to variation. Such fluctuation is determined by Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook. Bets are accepted only at the odds available in the betting grid, at the time the bet was accepted by Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook, and as printed on the Wagering Patron’s printed wagering ticket, irrespective of any other claim or previous publication present on the website or any other media detailing otherwise.
6) All payout calculations when settling bets will be done based on Decimal odds, irrespective of any other format displayed/chosen at time of bet placement.
6) Cancellation (Voiding) of Bets
1) A bet can be declared void, under the circumstances described in clause 3 below. If a bet is voided, it will be settled with odds of 1.00.
2) A bet made as an accumulative bet shall remain valid, notwithstanding a match or an event which is part of the accumulative bet being void.
3) Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook reserves the right to declare a bet void, totally or partially, if any of the following, or similar, circumstances have occurred:
a) Bets have been offered, placed and/or accepted due to an Error and/or at odds which significantly differ from those currently present elsewhere in the betting industry market (see Section A, Para 2, clause 1)
b) Bets placed while the website was encountering technical problems, that would otherwise not have been accepted;
c) Influence Betting;
d) Syndicate Betting;
e) A result has been directly or indirectly affected by criminal actions;
f) A public announcement has occurred in relation to the bet which significantly alters the odds; or
g) A bet has been offered on the relevant market in breach of the gambling regulation in the specific jurisdiction.
4) Past-posting and other cancellations: While Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook employs its most reasonable efforts to ensure the best user-experience, should a market be available for betting when it should have been removed or else with incorrect odds, Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook reserves the right to void all bets accepted within said circumstances in accordance with <Section A, Para 5.3>. Such situations include, but are not limited to:
(i) “Pre-match” bets placed/accepted after the event has started;
(ii) “Live” bets placed/accepted at incorrect odds due to delayed or failing “Live” coverage, or on odds which represented a different score than the actual;
(iii) Bets placed following the last instance that a participant/outcome had any chance to influence the match/event scoring applicable to the relevant market and an eventual withdrawal/disqualification/cancellation/format change or anything which precludes the ability of the applicable participant/outcome to influence said scoring will be declared void;
(iv) Bets placed with odds which do not reflect that a related event was underway and where conditions could have been altered in a direct and indisputable way, or else after an event which could normally be deemed as leading to the outcome is happening or has happened already.
5) Related contingencies: Unless placed via Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook’s in-event combination functionality, or offered explicitly as a specific offering, Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook prohibits accumulator bets that include two or more outcomes which might turn out to be related (e.g., “Team X to become champions” and “Player Y to be Top Goal Scorer” in the same league). Although Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook takes all necessary steps to prevent such possibilities, in the eventuality that this would happen, Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook reserves the right to declare void all parts of the accumulative bet which include the correlated outcomes whose odds are not indicative of the related contingency.
6) Bets can be voided regardless of whether the event has been settled or not.
7) Disclaimer and Priority
1) These Rules are applicable to all transactions with Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook and may be supplemented with other Rules. In the event of ambiguity, priority should be considered in the following order:
a) Rules and conditions published in conjunction with an offer and/or campaign.
b) Sport-Specific Rules in these Rules.
c) General Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook rules as listed in these Rules.
2) Should unforeseen circumstances occur for which settlement is not covered explicitly by these rules Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook reserves the right to settle affected bets on an individual basis on the basis of equity, following generally accepted betting norms, customs and definitions.
3) Any data provided or accessible in, from, or related to Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook, including any information posted on its websites, its kiosks, its retail wagering boards, and elsewhere in or in connection with Swinomish Casino & Lodge, may be used by the Wagering Patron for private, non-commercial use only and any use or attempted use of such data for commercial purposes is strictly prohibited.
4) Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook and Swinomish Casino & Lodge have the right to enforce a term of the contract relating to the Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook against any Wagering Patron.
C. General Betting Rules
1. Common Terms of Reference
1) Unless listed either in conjunction with the bet offer, or else in the Sport Specific rules, all bets should be considered valid for the result at the end of the “Regular Time” or “Full Time” only. “Regular Time” or “Full time” is defined as interpreted by the official rules published by the sport or competition’s respective governing body. For example, in Soccer, full time is stipulated to be 90 minutes including injury time, and in Ice Hockey it is stipulated as the 3 x 20-minute periods. Should the governing body decide to stipulate, before the start of the event, that the said event is to be played over a different duration, this will be treated as being the official rules for the event (for example, soccer matches played with 3 x 30 minutes or 2 x 40 minutes formats). In any event, such occurrence is limited to the “regular” playing time and does not include any prolongation such as extra time or overtime (but does include injury time in Soccer or other sports where injury time is considered part of “Regular Time”), unless explicitly stated.
2) “Livebetting” is where it is possible to bet during an ongoing match or event. Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook does not acknowledge or accept any liability whatsoever if it not possible to place a bet or the live score update is not correct. At all times it is the Account Holder's responsibility to be aware of the match and the events surrounding it such as the current score, its progression and how much time remains before the match is completed. Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook does not accept any liability for changes to the Livebetting schedule or interruption of the Livebetting service.
3) The [Cash Out] function allows the Wagering Patron the possibility to redeem a bet, which status has not been settled yet, at its current value. It is available on selected events both in pre-match and live, as well as on both single and multiple bets. [Cash Out] functionality cannot be used on free bets. [Cash Out] requests might be subject to the same delay procedure as listed in <Section A, Para 4.2>. Should it happen that during this delay, for whatever reason, either the offer is removed, or odds fluctuate, the [Cash Out] request will not be accepted, and the Wagering Patron will be notified with an on-screen message. Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook reserves the right to offer such functionality at its own discretion and does not acknowledge or accept any liability whatsoever should the functionality not be available. Should a [Cash Out] request be successful, the bet will be settled immediately and any subsequent events which occur in relation with the bet will not be considered. In the instance of a [Cash Out] bet having suffered from a technical, pricing or settlement error at any time between the time of original offering and the final settlement, Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook reserves the right to rectify such inaccuracy in accordance with <Section A, Para 6.2>.
4) The “Participant" is an entity constituting part of an event. In “Head-to-Head” and "Triple-Head" the Participant only refers to objects that are subject to the “Head-to-Head” or “Triple-Head” event or sub-event (as further described in <Section B, para. 2.5> in question. For sake of clarity a “Participant” is to be intended as a single player, a team or any group of individuals grouped/listed together. Any reference to participants within these rules is to be intended accordingly regardless of whether its definition is in singular or plural.
5) The deadline (cut-off time) shown on the website is to be treated for information purposes only. Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook reserves the right, to suspend, partially or completely, the betting activity at any time where it deems necessary.
6) Statistics or editorial text published on the Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook’s website(s), or any third-party website(s) linked to by Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook’s website, are to be considered as added information. Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook does not acknowledge or accept any liability if the information is not correct. At all times it is the Wagering Patron’s responsibility to be aware about circumstances relating to an event.
7) Theoretical return in fixed odds betting to the player is calculated from the odds from all possible outcomes in the offer. For example, the theoretical payback to a player on a bet offer with 3 outcomes a, b and c can be calculated as follows.
Theoretical % = 1 / (1 / ”odds outcome a” + 1 / “odds outcome b” + 1 / “odds outcome c”) x 100
2. Bet Types
1) “Match” (aka 1X2) is where it is possible to bet on the (partial or definite) outcome of a match or event. The options are: “1” = Home team/Player 1, or the participant listed to the left side of the offer; “X” = Draw/Tie, or the selection in the middle; “2” = Away team/Player 2, or the participant listed to the right side of the offer. Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook will generally display a Match offer in the so-called “American” format (i.e., Away Team @ Home Team), where the host team is listed following the visiting team. Irrespective of the positioning of the teams on the board/betslip, the references to “Home” and “Away” teams will always refer to the actual teams playing at home (host) and away (visitor) respectively, as determined by the official organization bar the exceptions as detailed in <Section B, Para 5.32>
2) “Correct Score” (aka Result Betting) is where it is possible to bet on the (partial or definite) exact score of a match or event, or part of it.
3) “Over/Under” (aka Totals) is where it is possible to bet on the (partial or definite) amount of a predefined occurrence (e.g. goals, points, corners, rebounds, penalty minutes, etc.). Should the total amount of the listed occurrences be exactly equal to the betting line, then all bets on this offer will be declared void and be resolved at 1:1 odds. E.g., an offer where the betting line is 128.0 points and the match ends with the result 64-64 will be declared void and resolve at 1:1 odds.
4) “Odd/Even” is where it is possible to bet on the (partial or definite) amount of a predefined occurrence (e.g. goals, points, corners, rebounds, penalty minutes, etc.)."Odd" is 1, 3, 5 etc.; "Even" is 0, 2, 4 etc.
5) A “Head-to-Head” and/or “Triple-Head” is a competition between two or three participants/outcomes, originating from either an officially organized event, or else, as virtually defined by Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook as a sub-contest or sub-matchup within an organized event.
6) “Half time/Full time” is where it is possible to bet, in games that are played in halves, on the result in Half time and the outcome at the end of the listed timeframe. E.g. if at Half time the home team is leading 1-0 and the match ends 1-1, the winning outcome is 1/X. Bets on this market will be declared void should the match be played in a format where it is impossible to determine an outcome based on the timeframes listed within the offer.
7) “Period betting” is where it is possible to bet on the outcome of each separate period within a match/event. E.g., if the period scores in an ice hockey match are 2-0 / 0-1 / 1-1, the winning outcome is 1/2/X. Similarly, if the end-of-quarter scores in a basketball game are 7-0 / 14-0 / 14-14 / 14-21, the winning outcome is 1/1/X/2. Bets on this market will be declared void should the match be played in a format where it is impossible to determine an outcome based on the timeframes listed within the offer.
8) “Draw No Bet” (aka Moneyline) is where it is possible to bet on either "1" or "2" as defined in <Section B, Para 2.1>. It is also common practice to refer to "Draw No Bet" in cases where no draw odds are offered. Bets will be voided should the specific match/event not produce any winning outcome (e.g., Draw No Bet wager is offered and match ends as a draw), or; should the occurrence not happen (e.g., First Goal, Draw No Bet wagers are offered and match ends 0-0).
9) “Handicap” (aka Spread or Point Spread) is where it is possible to bet on whether the chosen outcome will occur once the listed handicap is added/subtracted (as applicable) to the match/period/total score or occurrence(s) to which the bet refers. For example, a bet on -7.0 points will result in a win if the team selected wins by more than 7 points, and will result in a loss if the team selected wins by fewer than 7 points or loses outright; similarly, a bet on +7.0 points will result in a win if the team selected wins outright, or loses by fewer than 7 points. In those circumstances where the result after the adjustment of the handicap line is exactly equal to the betting line, then all bets on this offer will be declared void. Example: a bet on -3.0 goals will be declared void if the chosen team wins the match by exactly 3 goals difference (e.g., if the chosen team wins by a score of 3-0,4-1, 5-2, etc., though the bet will lose if the chosen team wins by fewer than 3 goals or loses outright). Any reference in this section to the term “margin” is intended to be understood as the outcome emerging from the subtraction of the goals/points scored by the 2 teams/participants.
Unless otherwise stated, all handicaps listed on Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook’s website, odds boards, kiosks, printed bet tickets, or any other medium are to be calculated based on the result from the start of the listed match/period to the end of the specified match/period. It is however customary that for certain handicap bet offers in specific sports (e.g., Asian Handicap in Association Football), only the outcomes obtained from the time of bet placement until the end of the listed timeframe will be taken into consideration, thus disregarding any goals/points scored before the time the bet was placed and accepted. Any bet offer with these characteristics will be clearly displayed on site and highlighted in the bettor’s Bet History with the score at the time of bet placement.
There are 3 different “handicap betting” formats:
2-way Handicap: Team A (-1.5) vs Team B (+1.5)
Example:
· Team A is given a -1.5 goal handicap in the match. For the bet to be won, Team A must win the match with a margin equal or bigger than the listed handicap (ie. 2 goals or more).
· Team B is given a +1.5 goal advantage in the match. For the bet to be won, Team B must either win the match, match finish in a draw or not lose with a margin equal or bigger than their listed advantage (ie. lose with a 1 goal margin).
3-way Handicap: Team A (-2) Draw (Exactly 2) Team B (+2)
Example:
· Team A is given a 2 goal handicap in the match. For the bet to be won, Team A must win the match with a bigger margin than the listed handicap (ie. 3 goals or more).
· Draw would be the victorious outcome should the match end up with exactly the listed margin (ie. match ends with results such as 2-0, 3-1 and 4-2).
· Team B is given a 2 goal advantage in the match. For the bet to be won, Team B must either win the match, match finish in a draw or not lose with a margin equal or bigger than their listed advantage (ie. lose with only a 1 goal margin).
Asian Handicap: Team A (-1.75) vs Team B (+1.75)
Example:
· Team A is given a -1.75 goal handicap in the match. This means that the stake is divided into 2 equal bets and placed on the outcomes -1.5 and -2.0. For the bet to be fully paid out at the listed odds, Team A must win the match with a bigger margin than both of their listed handicaps (ie. 3 goals or more margin). In the eventuality that Team A wins with only a 2 goal margin, the bet will be considered as partially won with a full payout on the -1.5 part of the bet and a refund on the -2.0 side since the outcome on that part of the bet would be considered a “tie”. Should the match produce any other outcome, including a Team A victory with only 1 goal of margin, the whole stake would be lost.
· Team B is given a +1.75 goal advantage in the match. This means that the stake is divided into 2 equal bets and placed on the outcomes +1.5 and +2.0. For the bet to be fully paid out at the listed odds, Team B must either win the match, match finish in a draw or not lose with a margin equal or bigger than any of their listed advantages (ie. lose with only a 1 goal margin). In the eventuality that Team B loses with exactly a 2 goal margin, the bet will be considered as partially lost with a refund on the -2.0 part of the bet and a loss on the -1.5 part of the bet. Should the match produce any other outcome which results in a defeat of Team B with a margin of 3 or more goals, the whole stake would be lost.
10) “Double Chance” is where it is possible to bet simultaneously on two (partial or definite) outcomes of a match or event. The options are: 1X, 12 and X2 with "1", "X" and "2" as defined in <Section B, Para 2.1>.
11) “Outright” or “Place” betting is where it is possible to choose from a list of alternatives and bet on the eventuality that a participant wins or places within a specified position in the classification of the listed event/competition. Should two or more participants share finishing positions, the settlement will be based as per the definition in <Section B, Para 5.14>.
12) “Each Way” betting (aka EW) is where it is possible to make a selection that must either Win or else Place (as defined in <Section B, Para. 2.11> within the payout terms. The bet is divided in two parts (the “Win” part and the “Place” part) of an equal stake. Settlement of such bets will take into account the applicable rules governing the “Win” and “Place” bets, namely the Sport-specific rules as well as <Section B, Para. 5, Clause 11>.
13) “Goal minutes” is where it is possible to bet on the sum of the minutes when the goals have been scored. When settling such bets in sports that commonly include “injury time” in each half, period, or other time segment (such as Soccer), goals scored in injury time of both halves are to be considered as having been scored in the 45th minute in case the goal was scored in the first half injury time and the 90th minute in case the goal was scored in the second half injury time (or otherwise in the relevant time segment to which the injury time was added). Own goals will not count towards the settlement of individual player’s ‘goal minutes.’
3. Betting Props
1) Fantasy/Virtual " “Matches” or “Head to Heads” are implicit match-ups where the performances of two or more participants/teams which are not directly confronting each other in the same match/event/round are compared. Settlement will be based on the number of times each participant records a predefined occurrence (e.g., goals) in the respective match/event/round. The following criteria will be used to determine the settlement of these type of offerings:
a) Unless specifically stated the bets refer to the next official match/event/round (as applicable) that the listed participants/teams are scheduled to take part in.

3) Over/Under bets on ranked classification of participants in performances/events where participant outcomes are each resolved in relation to one another must be interpreted as follows: “Over” means a worse or lower position while “Under” means a better or higher position.

4) Bets on “Quarter / Half / Period X” refer to the result/score achieved in the relevant timeframe and does not include any other points/goals/events tallied from other parts of the event/match. Bets on this market will be declared void should the match be played in a format where it is impossible to determine an outcome for the timeframes specified in the offer.
5) Bets on “Result at end of Quarter / Half / Period X” refer to the result of the match/event after termination of the stipulated timeframe and will take into account all other points/goals/events tallied from previous parts of the event/match.

If the offer lists a timeframe (or any other period restriction), it will not include any other points/goals/events tallied from other parts of the event/match which are not related to the mentioned timeframe.

15) Settlement of bets which make reference to terms such as “decisive goal” will be settled based on the scorer of the goal that at the end of the match/tie (as applicable) proves to be the one that has produced an unassailable lead, following which any further goals would prove to be irrelevant towards the final outcome. For a bet to be settled as winning, the listed player's team must be declared winner of that particular match (in case of one match) or progressing to the next round/winning the competition. Goals scored in Regular Time and Extra Time count but not Penalty Shootouts.
16) Bets on events which feature a selection of events that could happen in a match (e.g., “What will happen first to or by the player?” with options, “Score a Goal, Get a Yellow/Red Card, Be Substituted, etc.) will be settled as void should none of the listed events/outcomes occur, unless odds for such eventuality have been published within the market.
17) Offers referring to which team/participant will achieve a particular accomplishment against another team/participant (e.g., Next team to beat Team X) as well as offers which refer to the classification on a certain date, will stand and be settled regardless of any eventual fixture changes and number of games/rounds played.
18) Settlement of offers referring to which team/participant will be the first to achieve a particular accomplishment against other team(s)/participant(s) (e.g., Team to score first in Matchday X) will be based upon the timeframe in the respective match in which the feat has been accomplished.

19) From time to time Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook, at its sole discretion and without prejudice to related contingencies as described in <Section A, Para 5, Clause 4>, might decide to publish offerings referring either to the single performance of a participant/team or offerings which combine the potential outcomes of 2 or more teams/participants (example: Enhanced Multiples, Boosted Odds, etc), at higher odds than those normally available. Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook reserves the right to withdraw such offers, edit the respective odds offered, and effect any further changes to the offers as Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook might deem necessary at its sole discretion, though outstanding tickets will retain the odds printed on the ticket. Settlement of these offers will be based on the following criteria in the listed order:
1. Unless specifically stated the offer refers only to the listed day(s) and/or next official match/event/round (as applicable) that the listed participants/teams are scheduled to take part in at the time the offer is published.
2. Results are settled as per respective Sport-specific rules. All related events must be completed as scheduled within the applicable timeframes for bets to stand unless any other outcome in the offer would incontrovertibly determine the outcome of the offer in a way that completion (or lack of thereof) of the other events listed in the offer would not influence the outcome of the offer. Such markets will be settled according to those incontrovertibly determined outcomes.
3. Unless explicitly stated within the offer, result settlement will only take into account occurrences deriving from actual play during the course of the event. Results attributable to walk-overs, protests, changes to the first official result, etc., will not be taken into consideration. Bets will be voided should it be impossible to determine a winning outcome in accordance with the respective Sport-specific rules.
4. All requirements related to the offer must be fully and unquestionably complied with for the bet to be settled as winning, regardless of any possible conflict with the Sport-specific rules or with any potential interpretation based on previous or current presentation of offers related to events in that particular sport and the way these offers are normally presented in Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook. Where applicable, should the offer include any outcome the result of which ties exactly the chosen Over/Under or Spread line (aka, a “push”), this will not be considered as having accomplished the listed occurrence and will result in the bet being settled as having lost.
While all necessary precautions have been taken by Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook to ensure a superior user experience, by using this product Wagering Patrons understand and accept that markets might fluctuate in such a way that, at any given point in time, these markets do not represent an enhanced value comparable to related bet offers currently present on Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook. All bets remain valid regardless of these eventual fluctuations.
20) During selected events, Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook will provide users with functionality to place bets combining outcomes and occurrences from the same event (aka Intra-Event Combinations), either through pre-established combinations present in its Sportsbook (excluding Enhanced Multiples, Boosted Odds, etc for which <Section B, Para 3, Clause 21> applies), or through the BetBuilder functionality. Such functionality is only present at Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook’s sole discretion and without prejudice to related contingencies as described in <Section A, Para 5, Clause 4>. Settlement will be based on the respective Sport-specific rules. All related occurrences must be fully accomplished for a bet to be considered as having happened and eventually paid out at the odds struck. Stakes refunded should any part of the combination be settled as VOID. Where applicable, should the combination feature any outcome the result of which ties exactly the chosen Over/Under or Spread line (aka PUSH), such component of the combination will be removed from settlement calculation and bets will be paid out taking into consideration only the other parts of the combination.
21) “Teaser+” bets allow the user the possibility to allocate the same pre-set number of points to all outcomes present in a parlay (combination) containing Spreads (Handicaps), Totals (Over/Unders), or a combination of both. Example: Wagering Patron combines NFL Team X +6.5 points in a parlay with a match total of Over 41 points in an NFL match between Team Y and Team Z. By choosing the “Teaser+ Football 6 points” option, the lines and odds get recalculated into a parlay featuring Team X +12.5 points (previously +6.5), combined with Over 35 points (previously Over 41). Should any part of a “Teaser+” bet be settled as void (push), that particular selection will be excluded from the parlay and the computation of odds/payout will be re-adjusted accordingly.
22) Bets referring to “Rest of the match” or similar will consider only outcomes and occurrences obtained from the time of bet placement until the end of the listed timeframe, thus disregarding any occurrences registered before the time the bet was placed and accepted.
23) Bets on specific timeframes/intervals (e.g., Match result for the period of play between 60:00 minutes and 89:59 minutes), will consider only outcomes and occurrences accumulated during the specified timeframe/interval. Settlement will not take into account any other points/goals/events tallied from other parts of the event/match outside the specified timeframe/interval, including stoppage/injury time, unless specified.
4. System Bets
1) In Pre-match and Live betting, it is possible to combine up to twelve (12) different offers on a single coupon. Based on these twelve offers, Wagering Patrons can choose their own number of singles, doubles, trebles etc.
2) Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook reserves the right to limit the number of combinations due to what is known as outcome dependency/related contingencies, as defined in <Section A, Para 5 Clause 4>.
3) It is possible to include one or several matches as “bankers” which means that the selected matches/events will be included in all coupons.
4) A “Trixie” is a combination, which includes one treble and three doubles from a selection of three matches.
5) A “Patent” is a combination, which includes one treble, three doubles and three singles from a selection of three matches.
6) A “Yankee” is a combination, which includes one fourfold, four trebles and six doubles from a selection of four matches.
7) A “Canadian” (also known as “Super Yankee”) is a combination, which includes one fivefold, five fourfolds, ten trebles and ten doubles from a selection of five matches.
8) A “Heinz” is a combination, which includes one sixfold, six fivefolds, fifteen fourfolds, twenty trebles and fifteen doubles from a selection of six matches.
9) A “Super Heinz” is a combination, which includes one sevenfold, seven sixfolds, twenty-one fivefolds, thirty-five fourfolds, thirty-five trebles and twenty-one doubles from a selection of seven matches.
10) A “Goliath” is a combination, which includes one eightfold, eight sevenfolds, twenty-eight sixfolds, fifty-six fivefolds, seventy fourfolds, fifty-six trebles and twenty-eight doubles from a selection of eight matches.
For display purposes, when necessary and when odds are displayed in decimal format, the second digit after the decimal point of the odds is shown as rounded up in the Wagering Patron’s bet history, where applicable, to the nearest decimal number. The payout will however be made based on the actual odds multiplied by the stake, disregarding the aforementioned rounding.
5. Result Settlement
1) For odds listed as “+###” or “-###” (also known as “American odds”), these figures represent how much a bet on each team pays out and they also show you which team is favored to win and how heavily they’re favored. The team with a negative number (like -110) is the favorite; the number next to the minus sign is the amount you must bet to win $100 in profit, so if the number is -110, you must bet $110 to win $100. The team with the plus sign (like +150) is the underdog; the number tells you how much profit you will win if you bet $100, so if the number is +150, a $100 bet will win you $150 in profit.
2) “American odds” can be converted to “decimal odds” for ease of calculation. When the American odds price is positive, divide it by 100 and add 1, such that +300 American odds would equal 4.00 decimal odds. When the American odds price is negative, take 100 and divide it by the American odds amount (removing the negative sign), then add 1, such that -500 American odds would be equal to 1.200 decimal odds. Multiplying the decimal odds by your original stake, and then subtracting the original stake, will determine your profit, so if you bet $50 at -500 odds, you would multiply $50 by 1.2 (after converting -500 American odds to 1.2 decimal odds) and then subtract your original stake for a profit of $10.
3) As noted above, all payout calculations when settling bets will be done based on Decimal odds, irrespective of any other format displayed/chosen at time of bet placement.
4) When settling results Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook will do its utmost to utilize information obtained first-hand (during or exactly after the event has been concluded), through TV transmissions, streaming (web-based and through other sources), and official websites. Should this information not be available via first-hand viewing and/or official sources and/or there is an obvious mistake in the information included in the sources above, the settlement of the bet offer will be based on other public sources. Nevertheless, unless a clear and verifiable Error (as defined in these Rules) is noted in the first official result available to Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook, settlement of bets will not include any changes deriving from and/or attributable to later modifications to the outcome, including but not limited to: disqualifications, penalizations, protests, sub-judice results, and/or successive changes to the official result after the event has been completed and a result has been announced, even preliminarily, unless said preliminary results are expressly held out to the public as preliminary and not final with the expectation that final results will be announced to the public imminently.
5) a. Settlement of markets held over for more than 1 round/stage (e.g., Season Champion or Season Win/Loss Total Bets) will only take into account amendments affecting bets for which settlement has not yet been decided. Such measures must be announced by the governing body before the last scheduled round/stage/match will be considered. Any changes effected after this date, or changes referring to bets which have already been settled based on events happening during the event/competition/season will not be considered.
b. Unless otherwise specified within the offer, implied by the official competition rules, or announced beforehand as being the official format for that particular event, any changes from the default sport/event/competition format as specified by the government body of that sport/event/competition that result in Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook offering odds/lines/totals which are incompatible with the revised playing format, will result in the voiding of the bets affected by the format change.
c. Offers where the format change does not preclude the governing body from declaring a winner (e.g., Season winner), irrespective of whether there will be a continuation of play or not for the remainder of that season/competition, bets based on the revised length of the season/competition, will be settled according to the result issued by the governing body, as long as that result is issued as per the timeframes listed below and is compatible with the odds/lines/totals available at time of offer publishing.
d. The following settlement provisions apply in such cases of a governing body issuing a result following a format change:
(i) Should the governing body issue a result or declare an outcome within 3 months from the last match played before the interruption (be it final classification, cancellation or intentions to resume play), markets will be determined accordingly.
(ii) Should no applicable official communication/result is issued or no outcome is determined within 3 months from the last match played before the interruption, markets will be settled in accordance with the last classification/rankings available, regardless of the number of matches played or the current stage/phase of the competition.
(iii) Markets which refer to whether a team/participant will reach a subsequent phase of the event/competition (e.g., the playoffs or knockout stage of that event/competition) will be settled as void should there be any changes to the format/number of participants scheduled to contest that particular phase, or if that particular phase is not played at all, unless an outcome based on the market status at time of bet publishing has already been determined and the change in number of applicable matches bears no influence on the outcome of the bet.
(iv) Markets which odds are dependent/based on a full schedule of matches being played (example: Over/Under Wins in the Regular Season or Points scored in the Regular Season), will be declared void should the number of matches played end up being different than originally scheduled at the time of bet publishing, unless an outcome has already been determined and the change in number of applicable matches bears no influence the outcome of the offer.
3) Occurrences which have not been recognized and/or acknowledged by the match/event/contest officials, or which were expressly denied recognition by the match/event/contest officials (e.g., disallowed goals) will not be taken into account towards the settlement of the bet. As a general rule, and unless the offer specifies otherwise, Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook will settle offers based on the exact, official time that the flow of play was interrupted/resumed (as applicable) by the occurrence in question (e.g. ball went out of play for a throw-in/goal kick or crosses the line for a goal), or play is interrupted by the referee (by whistle or otherwise), whichever is earliest. Unless an adjustment is announced by event officials, the official time is assumed to be that time displayed on the in-venue clocks. Television or other broadcast clocks are considered unofficial and for consultation purposes only. Occurrences are only considered awarded, if the subsequent related action is performed i.e. (Offside must result in a free kick, corners must be taken, and Goal kicks must be taken for those events to count toward bet settlement). Should the occurrence be only awarded and not taken, it will not be considered for settlement purposes.
4) All bet offers related to matches/events which do not take place at all, or are awarded a result through a walk-over decision, will be declared void.
5) In case of an abandoned event, where the event was abandoned after play had begun, all bet offers that have been decided prior to the abandonment and could not possibly be changed regardless of future events, will be settled according to the decided outcome. Should the abandoned event not resume within 12 hours of the time of its abandonment, all pending offers related to the event will be settled as void [unless the sport’s governing body announces resumption of that event within 12 hours of its start time].
6) In case an event is abandoned and is scheduled to restart from the beginning, all bets placed before the initial match which could not be settled through the outcomes deriving from the play prior to abandonment, will be declared void regardless of whether or when the match is continued.
7) Unless otherwise stated either in the Sport-specific rules or in conjunction with the bet offer, in the case that specific events forming part of tournaments/competitions not held, get postponed and/or rescheduled for a time/date longer than 12 hours from the last scheduled time issued by the governing body due to bad weather, crowd trouble or similar scenarios will be declared void with the following exceptions where bets will remain valid:
a) Events which starting times have not been officially confirmed yet by the governing body at time of bet placement.
b) Events which are moved due to scheduling conflicts, broadcast considerations, or other matters of convenience, but remain scheduled to be played within the same matchday/game week/round (as applicable) and the change does not change the order of official matches for any of the participants in the offer.
c) Events which start times are anticipated (brought forward) but remain scheduled to be played within the same matchday/game week/round (as applicable) and, subject to the prohibition on past-posting and similar occurrences as defined in <Section A, Para 5.4>, the change does not modify the order of official matches for any of the participants in the offer.
For the avoidance of doubt the definition of same matchday/game week/round is to be interpreted as the order of fixtures as dictated by the governing body with each specific match representing a matchday/game week/round. The definition of matchday/game week/round is made according to the sport’s governing body without regard to the time zone of the Wagering Patron. Should this order not be upheld and the sequence of fixtures changes in a way that matches against other teams get scheduled in between so much that the listed fixture ceases to be the next official commitment from that particular tournament/league/competition for all teams involved, that will be considered as not part of the same matchday/game week/round and offers will be declared void. The above does not apply to Season bets which will remain valid granted that the tournament/league/competition is held and decided during the season/year it refers to, regardless of any eventual date changes. In cases of playoff series or other series of matches which are scheduled to confront 2 teams over 2 or more matches, any re-scheduling of a single match will be considered as being part of the same matchday regardless of the length of the re-scheduling, granted that the order of home and away fixtures in the series is not modified and the listed fixture takes place within the series. Bets will be declared void otherwise.
8) In cases of events which have not been completed before their natural conclusion, and a result is issued through a decision by the association not more than 12 hours from the event’s start, [Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook will use the issued decision as the official result for offers related to the event's outcome, such as Match, Draw No Bet/Push, and Double Chance granted that the issued decision does not change the outcome of the said bet offers at the time of the abandonment. In that case the stakes will be refunded. All offers referring to the tallying of particular occurrences (example: Total Goals, Handicaps, etc) will be declared void except for those the outcomes of which have been decided prior to the abandonment and could not possibly be changed regardless of future events, which will be settled according to the decided outcome.
9) All bet offers related to uncompleted matches/events where the official governing body is not previously specified (e.g., Club Friendlies played without official governing body sanction) will be declared as void unless at least 90% of the stipulated Regular/Full time is played, see in <Section B, Para 1.1>. Should the match/event be abandoned after 90% has been completed, the settlement will be based on the current score at the time when the match/event was stopped.
10) Unless stated alongside the wagering market, settlement of bet offers including, but not limited to, number of shots, number of shots on target, time or percentage of ball possession, number of assists, number of rebounds, etc. will be determined according to the statistics issued by the official governing body using the definitions of that official governing body. Unless backed by incontrovertible evidence, Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook will not acknowledge any complaints which derive from a personal interpretation of such terms.
11) With the exception of Trotting and Horse Racing, wagers placed on participants/teams who take no part in an event, will be declared void. A participant or team who takes part in the event/match in any capacity (e.g., by participating in at least one play), will be resolved as per the rules of the applicable wager. However applicable qualifying stages or similar, are to be considered part of the main event, and any participation within, is considered as validating the wager and will not be voided. Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook reserves the right, to apply Tattersalls Rule 4, as explained in <Section B, Para 6>, on any competition and this will be stated in correlation to the bet offer and/or the relevant Sport-specific rule.
12) No refunds of bets will apply, even if the winning outcome of a match/event is a participant/outcome that has not been listed for betting purposes. On all bet offers the Wagering Patron has the possibility to ask for a price on a non-listed participant/outcome. Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook reserves the right, at its discretion, to accept or decline such requests if a wagering market is available.
13) In case a participant is disqualified/withheld/banned from taking part in a subsequent part/phase of an event/competition, the disqualification will be considered to have taken place at the time of the participant’s removal from the event/competition. No alterations will be made to previous results, regardless of any modifications to official results due to said actions. Bets on the actions of the disqualified participant placed after the disqualified participant last took part in the event will be declared void.
14) If two or more Participants share the applicable finishing positions and no odds have been offered for a drawn or tied outcome, the payout will be calculated by dividing the odds by the number of participants sharing those certain positions and are settled accordingly. The payout will always be at least equal to the stake, except in cases of “Head to Heads”, see <Section B, Para 2.5> and <Section B, Para 5.19>.
15) In “Group Betting” (aka “Best of X”), all listed participants must start the event for bets to stand.
16) In “Group Betting” (aka “Best of X”), at least one participant from the selection list must successfully complete the event for bets to stand. Should that not be the case, and the governing body does not follow specific tie-breaking criteria, the bets will be declared void.
17) In a “Head to Head” bet between two or three participants, all listed participants must start the particular match/round/event which the bet refers to, for bets to be considered valid.
18) In a “Head to Head” bet between two participants, all bets will be refunded if both participants share the same position/score or are eliminated at the same stage of the competition, unless the governing body follows specific tie-breaking procedures, in which case these will be remain valid and settle according to the tie-breaking procedures of the sport’s governing body.
19) In a “Head to Head” bet between three participants and the winning outcome or position is shared by one or more participants, the odds will be divided by the outcomes sharing the winning position, irrespective whether the net outcome is lower than the Account Holder's stake.
20) If a “Head to Head” bet is offered between different rounds/stages, all participants must take part in the upcoming round/stage for bets to be valid. Should any participant listed in the offer not take any subsequent part, bets placed from after the last time the participant was active in the event will be declared void.
21) Unless specifically stated, whenever a sports organizing association or governing body includes any necessary rounds, matches, or series of matches (e.g., Play-offs, Play-outs, Postseason) following the end of the so-called Regular Season in order to determine the classification, league winners, promotion/relegation, etc., Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook will take into account the results and outcomes deriving from these matches for settlement purposes of bets referring to the final league classification, promotion, relegation, etc. For example, seasonal bets on the team winning the NHL Championship will refer to the Stanley Cup Winners.
22) Offers regarding the performances of two or more specific individuals/teams over a stipulated timeframe/competition will only be settled based on the result of the listed participants, disregarding all other participants in the same competition/event.
23) Unless specifically stated, all offers referring to a single player’s performance in a specific domestic league (such as Total Goals Scored by Player X in League Y) or “Head to Head” bet offers involving two players’ performances in domestic leagues, will not take into account those events happening during eventual Play-offs/Play-outs/Post-season or any other matches, or series of, which would happen after the so-called Regular Season.
24) Offers related to a total number of occurrences/events scored/tallied by a particular team, either in a single team performance in a specific domestic league (such as Total Goals Scored by Team X), or “Head to Head” bet offers involving two teams’ performances in domestic leagues (e.g., Most Penalty Minutes in League X - Team Y vs Team Z), or a cumulative league performance (e.g., Team to receive Most Yellow Cards in League X) will not take into account those events happening during eventual Play-offs/Play-outs/Post-season or any other matches, or series of, which would happen after the so-called Regular Season, unless otherwise specified.
25) In a single player performance bet offer in a specific domestic league (such as Total Goals Scored by Player X in League Y) or “Head to Head” bet offers involving two players’ performances in domestic leagues, unless an outcome has already been achieved, bets will be voided should any of the following occurrences happen to any relevant participant: (i) the relevant participant is not part of the matchday squad for the club/team they are eligible for at time of bet placement in 50% or more of the remaining applicable matches for any reason, (ii) the relevant participant does not take part in at least another match after the bet has been placed, (iii) the relevant participant totals the same number of occurrences as the other player, unless a draw/tie option has been offered. Other sports-specific conditions may apply, please refer to the Sport-specific section.
26) In a single player performance bet offer in a specific event (such as Total Goals Scored by Player X in an international tournament) or “Head to Head” bet offers involving two players’ performances in specific events, should any of the following occurrences happen to either of the participants in the selection list, the bets will be considered void: (i) does not take part at all in the event (ii) does not take part in at least another match after the bet has been placed, (iii) totals the same amount as the other participant, unless a draw/tie option has been offered.
27) During specific events Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook might decide to offer for betting a reduced selection of participants and might also include betting options such as "any other", "the field", or similar. This option includes all unlisted participants except for the ones mentioned specifically as available.
28) Offers that make specific reference to a participant’s/participants’ performance in a particular event (e.g. Player X vs the Field) are to be considered void if the mentioned participant(s) do(es) not take part in the competition.
29) Any form of a qualification ahead of the main event is considered to be a valid part of that competition. Thus any participant who is eliminated at qualification stage will be considered losing to anyone that is pre-qualified or is successful in the qualification part.
30) Bet offers which originally require participant(s) to compete in two or more stages/legs to advance into a subsequent phase/round of a competition, will remain valid regardless of any postponement/movement of the actual match dates, as long as that said match(es) actually take place within the previously-announced duration of the competition.
31) A bet on a “To Qualify” market originally requiring a participants’ successful completion of just one stage/leg to advance to a subsequent phase/round of a competition (including any eventual prolongations/additional matches, e.g. replays) will be declared void if said stage/leg is not decided within more than 12 hours of its start time.
32) Should an event be moved from
its originally announced venue and/or have its playing surface changed, this
will not be treated as a cause for offers to be voided unless (i) the Sport-specific
rules dictate such, and/or the new location in which the event takes place is
the habitual “home” venue of either participant involved in the match.
As a general principle, Unibet
at Swinomish Sportsbook will refer to the Home team (host) and the Away team
(visitor) in accordance with the definition issued by the governing body for
that particular match/competition.
Bets on matches played at so-called “neutral venues” will remain valid, regardless of whether such information has been detailed in the bet offer and/or the positioning of the teams on the betting board/display. In cases where there is a discrepancy between the positioning of the teams/participants on the official website and their placement on the betting board/display, and such discrepancy causes a significant effect on the odds of the match/competition, Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook will void the affected bets. Such eventuality is contemplated only in cases where the discrepancy has a material and visible effect on the odds. For example, in cases of swapped Home and Away teams in an Ice Hockey match Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook will void the bets. Nevertheless, Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook will consider valid bets placed on events where the so-called home-field advantage is not considered and in cases of neutral venues. Examples of such cases include but are not limited to tennis tournaments, mixed martial arts fights or boxing matches, singles competitions in general, or specific events such as the final/late stages of team competitions being held in pre-established venues, like the NFL Super Bowl, the NCAA Men’s Division I Championship Final Four, or the Italian Football Cup Final, even if the location can be deemed as a potential customary “home” pitch for any of the teams involved. In such cases, said events will be considered as being played in neutral venues and all bets will stand, regardless of the positioning of the teams/participants on the official website and their placement on the betting board/display.
33) Information referring to gender of the teams, age groups and youth teams, as well as various definitions of reserve teams (e.g., so-called “B” and “C” teams), is to be treated as supplementary information. The inclusion (or lack of) and correctness of such information will not be treated as sufficient cause for the voiding of the offers related to the match/event, given that this does not cause an obvious inconsistency in odds offered.
34) While all necessary precautions are taken by Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook to assure the most faithful rendition of all components involved in a bet offer, it is to be assumed that certain denominations could be represented differently due to different interpretations deriving from adaptations into another language. Such linguistic incongruence will not be treated as sufficient cause for the voiding of the offers related to the match/event, given that it does not create uncertainty with other participants. The same applies for denominations referring to events, team names, sponsor names, etc.
35) In case of bets where there is reference to timeframes, they should be interpreted in the following way: “within the first 30 minutes” will include anything happening until 0 hours 29 minutes and 59 seconds; “between 10 to 20 minutes” will include anything happening from 10 minutes and 0 seconds until 19 minutes and 59 seconds.
36) Unless listed either in conjunction with the bet offer, or else in the Sport Specific rules, bets referring to event/match duration which include non-full integer digits (e.g., 88.5 minutes or X.5 rounds) require the full completion of the full integer of the listed duration for them to be considered won. For example: a bet on Over/Under 88.5 minutes for the length of a tennis match will be settled as Over only if at least 89 full minutes are completed.
37) Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook and Wagering Patrons acknowledge that some bets might require the rounding-up of percentages, units or other criteria which are decisive for the settlement of the bet. Should that be the case, Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook reserves the right to adjust and settle bets accordingly.
38) Any reference to goals scored by specific players will not count if they are defined as “own goals” (scored in their own goals and/or counting against their own team) unless otherwise stated.
39) Any reference to confederation, nationality or similar will be subject to the definition by the governing body.
40) Any medals won by a team/nation per competition will count as one (1) single medal regardless of the number of team members.
41) Offers referring to individual player performances over a particular period/tournament (example: Total Goals Scored by Player X during the World Cup) or comparative performances from 2 individual players during the course of the season (example: Which of Player X or Player Y will score most goals during the season), require all listed individuals to be an active participant in at least one more fixture applicable for the offer after bet acceptance for bets to stand.
42) Any bets referring to “breaking” of records require the listed occurrence to be fully accomplished. Equalling the record will not be considered as having fully accomplished the feat. Only the listed occurrence will count for settlement purposes.

Bets referring to events which have been rescheduled within the same week/round will remain valid to the same extent that said events are played within the timeframe above.
6) Matchday/Weekly prop bets are where it is possible to bet on the performances and outcomes of a pre-defined selection of team and/or individual player occurrences happening in a collection of matches/events on a specified week/round/day/match day (e.g., Total Points Scored in matches from a specific Conference, Highest/Lowest Scoring team, Player Yardage markets, etc.).

Fumbles on exchanges to the Running Back will be considered as “Run Play”.

For settlement purposes, fights the outcome of which is declared as either a “Majority draw” or a “Split draw” are to be considered as a drawn/tied outcome and offers will be settled accordingly.
9) Settlement of statistics-based offers such as “Boxer X to be knocked down” or similar will be settled based on the results declared by the referee.
9. Cricket
a. General Cricket Rules
1) In cases where no odds have been offered for a tie and the match/offer ends in a tie, bets would be settled according to the so-called “dead-heat” rule where the payout would be calculated after the odds are divided and multiplied by the stake, irrespective of whether the net payout is lower than the Wagering Patron’s stake. In competitions where other means are used to determine a winner after a tie (for example: “Bowl out” or “Super over”) then offers will be settled based on the result after such prolongations are completed. The only exception to this rule is for “Match Odds” betting in Test/First Class/3-, 4-, or 5-day matches where, in the event of a tie, both teams have completed two innings each and have scored exactly the same number of runs, bets on “Match Odds” will be settled as void.
2) For “Total Runs Over X” (Over/Under & Odd/Even) betting, “extras” and “penalty runs”, as per match scorecards, are included for settlement purposes. Bets will be settled as void if the over is not completed unless a result has already been determined or the over has reached its “natural conclusion” (e.g., innings end or declaration). The market refers only to the listed over (e.g., “5th over” refers to over number 5, i.e., the over directly following over number 4).
3) For “Total Runs Delivery X” (Over/Under & Odd/Even) betting, “extras” (but not “penalty runs”), as per match scorecards, are included for settlement purposes. Deliveries are counted from the start of the over, and additional deliveries (resulting from “extras”) will be counted consecutively and separately (e.g., If delivery 1 is a wide, the next ball is considered delivery 2).
4) For “Boundary Over X” (Yes/No) betting, any instance of the ball striking or clearing the boundary regardless of whether the ball comes off the bat shall be deemed a boundary. This includes wides, byes, leg byes, and overthrows (e.g., any instance of an in play ball that hits or clears the boundary shall be settled as yes for that over). 4 runs that are “all run” between the wicket shall not be counted as a boundary. Bets will be void if the over is not completed unless a result has already been determined or the over has reached its “natural conclusion” (e.g., innings end or declaration). The market refers only to the listed over (e.g., “5th Over” refers to over number 5, i.e., the over directly following over number 4).
5) For “Wicket Over X” (Yes/No) betting, the over must be completed for bets to stand, unless a wicket has already fallen or the innings reaches its natural conclusion (e.g., innings end or declaration).
6) For “Total Wides” (Over/Under) betting, settlement will be based on the “Runs” scored from “Wides” and not the number of “Wides” bowled. For example, if a single wide delivery reaches the boundary it shall count as 5 total wides for purposes of settling this bet.
7) For “Method of Dismissal” betting, bets will be void if either player retires, due to injury or any other reason, before the wicket falls or there are no further wickets.
8) For “Most Run Outs” betting, settlement will be based on the run outs count of the batting team, not the fielding team. (i.e., run outs count for the team of the player that is dismissed).
9) For “Odd/Even” betting, a ball must be bowled for bets to stand.
10) For any betting involving “ducks”, a “duck” is defined as when a player is dismissed for a score of zero runs. Any player not-out for zero runs is not considered a duck.
11) For “Maiden in Match” betting, a maiden is considered any over bowled with no runs scored. Only completed overs with zero runs count. A minimum of 1 complete over must be bowled for bets to stand. For settlement purposes leg-byes and byes are not applied to this bet offer, as per the match scorecard.
12) For all “4s” betting, including but not limited to total 4s, most 4s, and number of a player’s total 4s, any “all run” 4s will not count towards the total. Over-throws that reach the boundary and are awarded to the batsman will be counted. No-balls that reach the boundary off the bat and are awarded to the batsman will be counted. Leg-byes & byes that reach the boundary will not be counted. Wides that reach the boundary will not be counted.
13) Penalty runs awarded will be counted towards the over, interval, and innings for settlement purposes, as per match scorecard. If penalty runs are not awarded to a specific over, they will only count towards innings runs.
1) “Top Run Scorer” and “Top Wicket Taker” bets (including all variants by “Home Team”, “Away Team”, “1st Innings” & “2nd Innings”) placed on any player not in the starting 11 will be declared void. Bets on players who are selected as part of the starting 11 but do not bat or field will be settled as losers.
In the event of a tie, dead heat rules as explained in <Section C, Para 10(a).1> will apply.
a) Additionally, for all limited-overs matches, betting requires a minimum of 20 overs to be bowled per innings of a One Day match, unless a team is all-out or the match is completed, or a minimum of 5 overs to be bowled per innings of a Twenty20 match, T10/Ten10, or Hundred/one-hundred-ball match unless a team is all-out or the match is completed
b) Additionally, for all Test matches & 4-/5-day matches, betting requires 50 overs to be completed for bets to stand, unless the Innings has reached its natural conclusion (including “Innings declared”).
c) All “Top Wicket Taker” bets will be settled solely on the number of wickets taken regardless of the number of runs conceded.
d) All “Top Wicket Taker” bets will be void if no wicket is taken by any bowler in that innings.
e) This rule excludes any Tournament or Series market as covered in <Section C, Para 10(e).5>
2) “Man of the Match/Player of the Match” bets placed on any player not in the starting 11 will be declared void. “Man of the Match/Player of the Match” bets on players who are selected as part of the starting 11 but do not bat or bowl will be settled as losers. In the event of a tie, dead heat rules will apply as explained in <Section C, Para 10(a).1>.
3) “Next Man Out” & “First Batsman Dismissed” bets will be settled as void if either player retires due to injury or any other reason before the wicket falls or if there are no further wickets. Both named batsmen must be batting at the fall of the nominated wicket for bets to stand.
4) “Most Runs” (2-way & 3-way matchup) bets require that both/all players who are the subject of the bet reach the batting crease while a ball is bowled, though it is not necessary they face a ball nor must the quoted players have batted together, otherwise bets will be void. In the event of a tie, if no draw price was offered, dead heat rules will apply as explained in <Section C, Para 10(a).1>.
5) “Most Wickets” (2-way & 3-way matchup) bets require that both/all players who are the subject of the bet bowl at least 1 ball for bets to stand. In the event of a tie, if no draw price was offered, dead heat rules will apply as explained in <Section C, Para 10(a).1>.
6) “Player Performance” bets placed on any player not in the starting 11 will be declared void. Settlement is determined by the following points-based scoring system:
· 1 point per run scored (batsman only);
· 10 points per catch taken (fielder or wicket keeper only);
· 20 points per wicket (bowler only);
· 25 points per stumping (wicket keeper only).
Additionally, for all limited overs matches, such as a Twenty20 match or any other limited overs match, all bets will be declared as void should the number of overs be reduced due to weather or any other reason from the scheduled number of overs for that match. Should the outcome of such offers be already decided before any interruption and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these bets will be settled accordingly.
7) For “Player to Take 5 or More Wickets/Player’s Total Wickets/Player to Take a Wicket” bets placed on any player not in the starting 11 will be declared void. Such bets will also be void if the player does not bowl a ball.
8) “Player to Take/Make a Duck” (Yes/No) bets require that the player reaches the batting crease while a ball is bowled, though it is not necessary they face a ball.
9) For “Player to score Fastest 50/Century” bets, settlement is based on the least number of balls faced to reach the milestone (either 50 runs or 100 runs, respectively). In the event of a tie, dead heat rules will apply as explained in <Section C, Para 10(a).1>.
10) For “Race to X Runs” bets, both players who are the subject of the bet must open the batting for bets to stand.
11) “Player’s Total Runs/Player’s Total 4s/Player’s Total 6s” (Over/Under) betting requires that the player reach the batting crease while a ball is bowled, though it is not necessary they face a ball. In cases where a batsman's innings is ended by weather or bad light, all bets where a result has not been determined at the time the innings is ended will be declared void. A result is deemed to have been determined if a batsman has passed the run total at which the bet was accepted, has been dismissed, or an innings completed/declaration has been made. For example, if a batsman's score stands at 50 “Not-Out” when a game or innings is terminated due to weather or bad light, all bets on 50.5 runs will be voided unless the game has reached its natural conclusion. However, all bets on Over 49.5 Runs will be considered as winning while bets on Under 49.5 Runs will be settled as losing. Should a batsman retire, due to injury or for any other reason, his score at the end of his team’s innings will be considered as the result to be used for settlement of that bet. Additionally, for all limited overs matches, all bets will be declared as void should the number of overs be reduced (due to weather, bad light, or any other reason) from the standard scheduled number of overs in a Twenty20 match or any other type of limited overs match. Should the outcome of such offers be already decided before the interruption and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these bets will be settled accordingly.
12) “Player to Score 50/Half Century” (Yes/No) betting requires that the player reach the batting crease while a ball is bowled, though it is not necessary that they face a ball. A player is deemed to have scored 50 or a “Half century” once their individual score is 50 or more runs regardless of whether the player scores a century or more. In cases where a ’batsman’s innings is ended by weather, bad light, or any other environmental reason, all bets where a result has not been determined will be declared void, unless the game has reached a natural conclusion. Should a batsman retire, due to injury or any other reason, his score at the end of his ’team’s innings will be considered as the result for that bet. Additionally, for all limited overs matches, should weather, bad light, or any other reason result in the number of overs being reduced from those initially scheduled at the time the bet was accepted, then all open “Player to Score 50/Half Century” bets will be declared void if the reduction is 10% or more of the overs scheduled at the time the bet was accepted. If the reduction is less than 10% of the overs that were scheduled at the time the bet was accepted, then bets will stand. If a team innings is scheduled for 10 overs or fewer, then any reduction in overs will void bets. However, should the outcome of such offers be already decided before the interruption or reduction and no further play could possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these will be settled accordingly.
13) “Player to Score 100/Century/200/Double Century” (Yes/No) betting requires that the player reach the batting crease while a ball is bowled, though not necessarily facing a ball. A player is deemed to have scored 100 or a “Century” once their individual score is 100 or more runs regardless of whether the player scores a double century or more. Similarly, a player is deemed to have scored 200 or a “Double Century” once their individual score is 200 or more runs. In cases where a ’batsman’s innings is ended by weather, bad light, or any other environmental reason, all bets where a result has not been determined will be declared void. Should a batsman retire due to injury or any other reason, his score at the end of his ’team’s innings will be considered as the result for that bet. Additionally, for all limited overs matches, should weather, bad light, or any other reason result in the number of overs being reduced from those initially scheduled at the time the bet was accepted, then all open “Player to Score 100/Century/200/Double Century” bets will be declared void granted that the reduction is 10% or more of the overs scheduled at the time the best was accepted. If the reduction is less than 10% of the overs that were scheduled at the time the bet was accepted, then bets will stand. If a team innings is scheduled for 10 overs or fewer, then any reduction in overs will void bets. However, should the outcome of such offers be already decided before the interruption or reduction and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these will be settled accordingly.
c. Limited Overs Cricket
1) Should a match be transferred to a “reserve” day, all bets will remain valid as long as the game commences within 48hrs of the original, scheduled start time.
2) Match odds (head to head) bets are settled based on the official result. In the event of a tie, dead heat rules as explained in Clause 1 of the General Cricket Rules will apply unless a subsequent tiebreaker method is used to determine the winner (e.g., “Super Over”, bowl-off), in which case the outcome will be settled on the result of this method. Should the match be declared a “no-result” all bets are void.
3) If any “Super Over” or tiebreaker is required, any runs, wickets or any other stat that may occur in the “Super Over” or tie breaker do not count towards any betting market (except match result), including player bet offers and team totals (e.g., top batsman/bowler, player runs, total 6s, to take at least X wickets, etc.). This rule does not apply to specific bet offers designated as relating to “Super Overs” (e.g., “Super Over” Total Runs).
4) For “Match Handicap / Winning Margin” betting, settlement will depend on whether the team which wins the match bats 1st or 2nd. If the team batting 1st wins the match, then the runs handicap will be used for settlement. If the team batting 2nd wins then the wickets handicap will be used for settlement. All bets will be declared as void should the number of overs be reduced due to weather, bad light, or any other reason, from the standard scheduled number of overs in a Twenty20 match or any other type of limited overs match.
5) For “Highest 1st 6/15 Overs” betting, all bets will be declared as void should the number of overs in the match be reduced due to weather, bad light, or any other reason, from the scheduled number of overs at the time the bet was accepted (whether standard for that match type or already reduced). Should the outcome of such offers be already decided before the reduction in overs and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these bets will be settled accordingly. In the event of a tie, if no draw price was offered, dead heat rules as explained in Clause 1 of the General Cricket Rules will apply.
6) “Highest Total 1st X Overs” bets will be void should the intervention of weather, bad light, or any other reason result in the number of overs in the match being reduced from those initially scheduled at the time the bet was accepted. Should the outcome of such offers be already decided before the reduction in overs and no further play could possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these bets will be settled accordingly.
7) “Highest Opening Partnership” betting requires that both sides complete their opening partnerships, with the exception of those situations where an outcome of such offers has already been decided by play before both opening partnerships have been completed. An opening partnership is considered to have begun once the first ball is bowled in a team innings, and lasts until the fall of 1st wicket or, should no 1st wicket fall, the innings reaching its natural conclusion. In the event of a tie, if no draw price was offered, dead heat rules as explained in Clause 1 of the General Cricket Rules will apply. Additionally, all “Highest Opening Partnership” bets will be declared as void should the number of overs in the match be reduced due to weather, bad light, or any other reason from the scheduled number of overs at the time the bet was accepted (whether standard for that match type or already reduced). Should the outcome of such offers be already decided before the reduction in overs and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these bets will be settled accordingly.
8) In “Fall of Next Wicket” and “Opening Partnership” (Over/Under) betting, should either batsman retire due to injury or any other reason before a result has been determined, all bets placed before the retirement will be declared void; any bets taken after the first ball of the new partnership will stand. A result is deemed to have been determined if the partnership total has passed the designated run total at which the bet was accepted. If a team reaches their target, the total achieved by the batting team will be the result of the market. If a partnership is disrupted due to weather, bad light, or any other reason, all bets will stand unless there is no further play in the match. In such case where no further play in the match takes place, all bets where a result has not been determined by play at the time of the discontinuation of the match will be declared void.
In relation to the over number at the fall of next wicket,
any quoted half-over refers to the whole over number either preceding or
succeeding the quoted half-over, not the specific balls bowled in each over
(e.g. over/under 5.5 refers to either “any delivery in over 5 and earlier” for
the under bet or “any delivery in over 6 and later” for the over bet, and not
the 5th delivery of over 5).
Additionally, all “Fall of Wicket” bets will be declared as void should the number of overs in the match be reduced due to weather, bad light, or any other reason, from the scheduled number of overs at the time the bet was accepted (whether standard for that match type or already reduced). Should the outcome of such offers be already decided before the reduction in overs and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these bets will be settled accordingly.
9) For “Total Runs – Innings X” (Over/Under) (e.g., “Total Team Runs” in a particular innings) betting, all bets will be declared as void should the number of overs in the match be reduced due to weather, bad light, or any other reason from the scheduled number of overs at the time the bet was accepted (whether standard for that match type or already reduced). Should the outcome of such offers be already decided before the reduction in overs and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these bets will be settled accordingly. For the avoidance of doubt, any bets taken after the number of overs has been reduced will stand unless there is a further reduction.
10) For “Total Runs – Innings X, Overs X-X” (Over/Under) (e.g., Total Runs – Home Team, Overs 1-15) betting, all bets will be declared as void should the number of overs be reduced due to weather, bad light, or any other reason from the scheduled number of overs in the match at the time the bet was accepted (whether standard for that match type or already reduced). Should the outcome of such offers have already been decided before the reduction in overs and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these bets will be settled accordingly. For the avoidance of doubt, any bets taken after the number of overs has been reduced will stand unless there is a further reduction.
11) For “Total 4s/6s/Boundaries/Wickets” (Over/Under) betting, all bets will be declared as void should the number of overs be reduced due to weather, bad light, or any other reason from the scheduled number of overs in the match at the time the bet was accepted (whether standard for that match type or already reduced). Should the outcome of such offers have already been decided before the reduction in overs and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these bets will be settled accordingly. Leg-byes and byes that reach/pass the boundary do not count towards total 4s/6s. Overthrows awarded to the batsman do count for purposes of settlement of these wager types. Wides that reach the boundary are not counted for purposes of settlement of these wager types. No-balls that reach the boundary off the bat and are awarded to the batsman will be counted for purposes of settlement of these wager types.
12) For “Most Fours/Sixes/Wides/Run-outs/Boundaries/Ducks/Extras” betting, should the intervention of weather (or any other delay) result in the number of overs being reduced from those initially scheduled at the time the bet was accepted, then all open “Most ‘X’” bets described in this section will be declared void if that the reduction is 10% or more of those overs scheduled at the time the bet was accepted. If the reduction is less than 10% of the scheduled overs at the time the bet was accepted, then bets will stand. If a team innings is scheduled for 10 overs or fewer at the time the bet was accepted, then any reduction in overs will void “Most ‘X’” bets. Should the outcome of such offers be already decided before the reduction in overs and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these bets will be settled accordingly. Leg-bye and byes that reach/pass the boundary do not count towards total 4s/6s for purposes of settlement of these wager types. In the event of a tie, if no draw price was offered, dead heat rules as explained in Clause 1 of the General Cricket Rules will apply.
13) For “Total Wides/Run-outs/Ducks/Extras/Stumpings” (Over/Under) betting, all bets will be declared as void should the number of overs be reduced due to weather, bad light, or any other reason from the scheduled number of overs in the match at the time the bet was accepted (whether standard for that match type or already reduced). Should the outcome of such offers have already been decided before the reduction in overs and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these bets will be settled accordingly. For wides and extras, settlement determinations will take into account the runs scored from wides and not just the number of wides bowled.
14) For “Highest Individual Score”, all bets will be declared as void should the number of overs in the match be reduced due to weather, bad light, or any other reason from the standard scheduled number of overs in a Twenty20 match or any other limited overs match. Should the outcome of such offers be already decided before the reduction in overs and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these bets will be settled accordingly.
15) For “Team of Top Run Scorer” betting, should the intervention of weather (or any other delay) result in the number of overs being reduced from those initially scheduled at the time the bet was accepted, then all open “Team of Top Run Scorer” bets will be declared void granted that the reduction is 10% or more of those overs scheduled at the time the bet was accepted. If the reduction is less than 10% of the scheduled overs at the time the bet was accepted, then bets will stand. If a team innings is 10 overs or fewer, then any reduction in overs will void bets. Should the outcome of such offers be already decided before the reduction of overs and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these bets will be settled accordingly. In the event of a tie, if no draw price was offered, dead heat rules as explained in Clause 1 of the General Cricket Rules will apply.
16) For “Fifty/Century in Match” (Yes/No) betting, should the intervention of weather (or any other delay) result in the number of overs being reduced from those initially scheduled at the time the bet was accepted, then all open “Fifty/Century in Match” bets will be declared void if the reduction is 10% or more of those overs scheduled at the time the bet was accepted. If the reduction is less than 10% of the scheduled overs at the time the bet was accepted, then bets will stand. If a team innings is 10 overs or fewer, then any reduction in overs will void any “Fifty/Century in Match” bets. Should the outcome of such offers be already decided before the reduction of overs and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these bets will be settled accordingly.
17) For “Highest Total Runs in an Over/Maximum Runs in an Over” (Over/Under) bets will be settled based on the greatest number of runs (including extras) scored in any one over of either innings in the match. All such bets will be declared as void should the number of overs be reduced due to weather (or any other reason) from the number of overs scheduled at the time the bet was accepted (whether for a standard match type or already reduced number of overs). Should the outcome of such offers be already decided before the reduction of overs and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these bets will be settled accordingly.
d. Test Matches/First Class Matches /3-, 4- or 5-day matches
1) If a match is officially abandoned (e.g., due to dangerous pitch conditions) then all undecided bets on the match are void.
2) For “Match Odds” betting in Test/First Class/3-, 4- or 5-day matches, in the event of a tie where both teams have completed two innings each and have scored exactly the same number of runs, bets on “Match Odds” will be void, with stakes being refunded. In Test and First Class Cricket matches, the match winner will be settled as determined by the competition’s official governing body. If the governing body states that the match has been drawn, then only bets on draw/tie (if draw/tie bets are offered) will win on the 3-way match odds market, while bets on either team to win the match will be lost.
3) For “Draw No Bet” betting, in the event of a draw or tie bets are void & therefore refunded.
4) For “Double Chance” betting, in the event of a tie where both teams have completed two innings each and have scored exactly the same number of runs, bets will be void, with stakes being refunded.
5) For “Most Points” betting, offers will be settled based on who has the most points awarded for the match (e.g., Sheffield Shield). In the event of a tie, if no draw price was offered, dead heat rules as explained in <Section C, Para 10(a).1>.
6) “Highest Opening Partnership” bets require that both sides complete their opening partnerships, with the exception of those situations where an outcome has already been determined before completion of both opening partnerships and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets. Unless otherwise stated, “Highest Opening Partnership” refers to the first innings of each team only. In the event of a tie, if no draw price was offered, dead heat rules as explained in <Section C, Para 10(a).1>.
7) In “Fall of Next Wicket” & “Opening Partnership” (Over/Under) betting, should either batsman retire due to injury or any other reason before a result of that bet has been determined all such bets will be declared void. A result is deemed to have been determined if the Innings total has passed the run total at which the bet was accepted. If a team declares or reaches their target, the total achieved by the batting team will be the result of the market. If a partnership is disrupted due to weather, all bets will stand unless there is no further play in the match, in which case all bets where a result has not been determined will be declared void. Extras and penalty runs awarded before the fall of wicket or during the partnership, according to the match scorecard, will be counted. In relation to the over number at the fall of next wicket, any quoted half refers to the whole over number not the specific balls bowled in each over (e.g., over/under 5.5 refers to either “any delivery in over 5 and earlier” or “any delivery in over 6 and later”, not “earlier and or later than the fifth delivery of over 5”).
8) For “Total Runs - Innings X” (Over/Under) (e.g., total team runs in a given innings) betting, all bets will be void if 50 overs are not bowled, unless an innings has reached its natural conclusion or is declared. If an innings is declared at any point, bets will be settled based on the declaration total. Extras and penalty runs awarded during the innings, according to the match scorecard, will be counted for purposes of settlement of these bets.
9) “Session Runs” betting requires 20 complete overs to be bowled in a session for bets to stand. Bets are settled on the total number of runs in the session regardless of which team scores the runs. Extras and penalty runs awarded during the session, according to the match scorecard, will be counted for purposes of settlement of these bets.
10) “Session Wickets” betting requires 20 complete overs to be bowled in a session for bets to stand. Bets are settled on the total number of wickets lost in the session regardless of which team loses them.
11) For any betting involving a particular “Session”, the following definition of each session will apply to day matches.
• Day X, Session 1 (Start of play until Lunch is taken)
• Day X, Session 2 (Lunch until Tea is taken)
• Day X, Session 3 (Tea until stumps/close of play for the day)
The following definition of each session will apply to day/night matches.
• Day X, Session 1 (Start of play until tea is taken)
• Day X, Session 2 (Tea until dinner is taken)
• Day X, Session 3 (Dinner until stumps/close of play for the day)
12) For “Test Match Finish” betting, in instances where a match finishes in a draw, the winning outcome will be deemed as “Day 5, Session 3”. If a match is officially abandoned (e.g., due to dangerous pitch conditions) then all bets are void.
13) For “Team to Lead after First Innings” betting, both teams are required to be bowled out or declare their first innings for bets to stand. In the event of a tie, if no draw price was offered, dead heat rules as explained in <Section C, Para 10(a).1>.
14) For “First Innings Century” betting, offers require 50 overs to be bowled unless a result has already been determined before completion of 50 overs or the innings has reached its natural conclusion (including innings declared).
15) For “Fifty/Century/Double Century in Match” betting in either Test or First class matches, bets will be void in drawn matches where the number of overs bowled is less than 200, unless a result has already been determined before completion of 200 overs.
16) For “Fifty/Century/Double Century in Match” in “Home/Away 1st Innings” betting in either Test or First Class matches, bets will be void unless the Innings reaches its natural conclusion (including “Innings declared”) or a result has already been determined before the Innings has reached its natural conclusion.
17) For “Fifty/Century/Double Century in match” in “Either 1st Innings” betting in either Test or First Class matches, bets will be void unless both Innings reach their natural conclusions (including “Innings declared”) or a result has already been determined before the Innings have reached their natural conclusions.
18) For “Fifty/Century/Double Century in match” in “Home/Away 2nd Innings” betting in either Test or First class matches, bets will be void in case the number of overs bowled for that Innings is less than 50, unless a result has already been determined before completion of 50 overs.
19) “Team of Top Run Scorer” betting will be settled based on the top run scorer for either the 1st or 2nd innings of either team, i.e., the settled winner will be the team of the highest individual run scorer in the match regardless of the overall match result. Bets will be void in drawn matches where the number of overs bowled is less than 200. In the event of a tie, if no draw price was offered, dead heat rules will apply as explained in <Section C, Para 10(a).1>.
e. Series/Tournament Betting
1) Should “draw” odds not be offered for a “Series Winner” bet and the series is ends in a draw, all bets will be declared void, unless application of the dead heat rule was specified, which case the dead heat rule will be applied as explained in <Section C, Para 10(a).1>.
2) If a tournament is not completed but a winner or winners are declared by the governing body, bets are settled based on the winner(s) as declared. If a tournament is declared to have ended in a draw and application of the dead heat rule was specified, then the dead heat rule will apply as explained in <Section C, Para 10(a).1>. Should no winner be declared then all bets will be settled as void.
3) All tournament betting includes Finals/Playoffs, unless otherwise stated.
4) For “Series Score” (Correct Series Score) betting, if for any reason the number of matches in a series is changed and does not reflect the number specified in the offer then all bets of that type will be declared void.
5) For “Top Series Run Scorer/Wicket Taker” & “Top Tournament Batsman/Bowler” betting, where a tie occurs dead heat rules will apply as explained in <Section C, Para 10(a).1>.

6) Bets referring to a particular player/team’s performances in a Series/Tournament will not take into account any statistics accumulated from warm-up matches.
7) For “Series Handicap” betting, all bets will be settled on the “series score” result, not the runs scored in the series. If for any reason the number of matches in a series changes then all bets will be declared void.
8) For “To Win a Test in Series” & “Total Test Wins/Draws” betting, if for any reason the number of matches in a series changes then all bets will be declared void with the exception of those situations where an outcome has already been determined before the number of matches in the series was changed and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets.
10. Curling
1) Settlement of all bets referring to Curling will be based on the result after any eventual extra innings, unless specified in the terms of the offer.
11. Cycling (Track & Road)
1) Settlement of offers will be based upon the rider/team achieving the highest position at the end of the stage/event.
2) Bets will be settled based on the highest placing in the specified event as declared by the official organization at the time of the podium presentation, disregarding subsequent disqualifications, changes to the official result, etc. Placements identified as “preliminary” or other placements announced before the podium presentation or other final determination are not considered.
3) All “Head to Head” and “Over/Under” bets involving the performance of one or more riders in an event/stage are considered valid if all listed riders start the relevant event/stage and at least one rider completes the relevant event/stage.
4) Bets based on the outcome of an event upon completion of the event require that the specified event is considered as completed in full and its result is declared, otherwise bets will be declared void, unless the result is already determined prior to the formal completion of the event and no further competition would change the outcome. In case the full number of stages for an event is not fully completed, or if the organizers decide to remove the result of certain stages from the computation of the official result, then such bets will be deemed valid only if the number of the excluded stages does not exceed 25% of the pre-established number of stages (excluding prologue) scheduled for completion at the beginning of the competition.
5) All bets will be deemed as valid provided that the event or the relevant stage to which the bet refers to, is played within the same year, unless other arrangements have been agreed to.
6) Bets on performances in a particular stage stand regardless of any route modifications which the organizers might deem fit to consider and apply during the stage. The exception to this rule is the case where a stage which has particular predominant characteristics (e.g., a “mountains” stage) is changed by the organizers, before the stage starts, into a stage which has other predominant characteristics (E.g.: Time Trial or low-lying stage). In such case bets which have been placed before the announcement of the change in stage concept will be declared void. The decision of whether such a change has occurred and whether bets are to be voided pursuant to this rule is in the sole discretion of Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook.
7) Unless otherwise specified, for a bet offer based on the performance of a specific team/rider in a specific event (such as Total Stage wins by Team/Rider X in Tour Y) or “Head to Head” bet offers involving two riders/teams performances in specific events, occurrences happening in events which are designated as a “Prologue” or “Team Time Trial” will not be considered for purposes of settlement.
12. Soccer (Association Football)
1) “First/Next Goalscorer” bet offers refer to a specific player being the scorer of the listed goal (i.e., the first or next goal) within the applicable timeframe, or else being the first scorer for his team (e.g., “First Goalscorer – Team X”). Bets on players who do not take part in the match, or come on the field of play after the listed goal to which the bet refers to has been scored, will be voided. Own goals do not count for the settlement of this offer. Should the goal to which the bet refers to be deemed as an own goal, the next player to score a goal which is not an own goal and conforms with the bet offer parameters will be deemed as the winning outcome for the bet. In case no goals (or no further goals, as applicable) are scored, which are not own goals and fulfill the remaining bet offer parameters, all bets will be settled as losses, unless an applicable option has been listed within the offer.
2) “Last Goalscorer” – The bet refers to a specific player being the scorer of the last goal either during a particular timeframe of the event (e.g., “Last goal in the match” or “Last goal in the 1st Half”), or else being the last scorer for his team (e.g., “Last Goalscorer – Team X)”. Bets will be voided only on players who do not take part in the match at all. In all other instances bets will remain valid, irrespective of the time of inclusion/substitution of the player. Own goals do not count for the settlement of this offer. Should the goal to which the bet refers to be deemed an own goal, the previous player to score a goal which is not an own goal and conforms with the bet offer parameters will be deemed as the winning outcome for the bet. In case no goals (or no previous goals, as applicable) are scored, which are not own goals and fulfill the remaining bet offer parameters, all bets will be considered lost.
3) “Scorecast” and “Matchcast” are bet offers where it is possible to bet simultaneously on a particular occurrence (e.g., “First Goalscorer”) combined with another occurrence from the same, or a related, event (e.g., Correct Score in the match, or match outcome). Should the bet refer to First or Last Goal Scorer, rules as stated in <Section C, Para 14.1> and <Section C, Para 14.2> will apply. Bets will be voided on players who do not take part in the match at all. In all other instances, bets will remain valid, irrespective of the time of inclusion/substitution of the player. Own goals do not count for the settlement of these offers.
4) Unless otherwise specified, or indicated in conjunction with the bet offer, all bets placed before match start related to whether a specific player(s) will manage to score any number of goals, require the listed player(s) to play from the start of the match to be valid. Any similar type of bets placed after the relevant match has started will be settled as void should the listed player(s) not take any further part in the match, for any reason, after bet acceptance. Own goals will never count as a goal scored for any selected player for settlement purposes.
5) On all bets related to yellow/red cards, booking points, etc., only cards shown to players who at that moment are on the pitch are valid for settlement purposes. Cards, disciplinary actions, or suspensions imposed on any other individual who at the moment of the sanction is not, or should not, be actively playing on the pitch, as well as disciplinary measures taken after the game has officially ended, are disregarded for the settlement of this offer.
6) Unless otherwise specified, or indicated in conjunction with the bet offer, all disciplinary-related bets placed before match start referring to individual(s) (e.g., yellow card, red card, number of fouls), require the listed player(s) to play from the start of the match to be valid. Any similar bets of this type placed after the relevant match has started will be settled as void should the listed player(s) not take any further part in the match for whatever reason after bet acceptance.
7) “Booking Points” are calculated according to the following rules: Yellow card = 10 points, Red card = 25 points. Maximum points for one player are 35.
8) Offers referring to individual player performances in a single match (example: Total Goals Scored by Player X) or comparative performances from 2 individual players during the course of a match (example: Which of Player X or Player Y will score most Goals), require all listed individuals to play from the start of the match for bets to stand.
9) Offers referring to individual player performances (example: Total Goals Scored by Player X during the World Cup) or comparative performances from 2 individual players over a particular period/tournament/season (example: Which of Player X or Player Y will score most goals during the league season), require that all listed individuals must be an active participant in at least one more fixture applicable for the offer after bet acceptance for bets to stand.
10) All bets referring to aggregated Tournament Totals (such as Goals, Corners, Cards, Penalties, etc.) will be settled based on official statistics released by the governing body. Unless otherwise stated, cumulative amounts of statistics which are the subject of such bets will include any eventual prolongations of time (e.g., Extra Time) but not statistics accumulated during any Penalty Shoot Outs.
11) Unless specifically stated, all bets referring to a particular team winning a number/selection of trophies in the same season will be based on the particular team’s performance within the following competitions: the domestic league, the local or regional equivalent of the respective FA Cup and League Cup tournaments, and the UEFA Champions League or Europa League. Other trophies (e.g., domestic and European Super Cup, World Club Cup) do not count.
12) The “Domestic Double” is to be considered as the team’s victory in the local or regional equivalent of the respective domestic league and FA Cup.
13) For settlement purposes, bets referring to the number of cards shown by the referee (distinguished from “Booking Points” wagers) will be counted as follows:
· Yellow card = 1
· Red card = 2
· One yellow and a red = 3
· Two yellow cards and a red = 3
The maximum number of cards that can be shown to any one player is 3 cards. Only cards shown to players currently eligible as per C.14.5 will be taken into consideration.
14) Bets on whether a particular player(s) will manage to score from certain areas of the pitch (e.g., from outside the “penalty box”) will be settled based on the position of the ball at the time the shot was struck by the player, irrelevant of any further deflections which the ball trajectory might incur following the initial shot. For the sake of clarity, it is to be understood that the lines delineating the “penalty box” are to be considered as an integral part of such area of the pitch and extend skyward from the pitch. Thus, should a shot be struck with the ball hovering above, or touching, even partially, said lines, the shot will be considered as having been taken from inside the penalty box, and will not be considered as having been outside the penalty box.
15) Bets on whether a particular player(s) will shoot and hit the cross bar, goal post or any other part of the frame delineating the goal area will only be settled as having accomplished such feat if the shot does not result directly in a goal being awarded exactly after the ball hits a part of the goal frame. Settlement will only take into consideration shots aimed at the goal frame defended by the opponents of the listed player(s) team. Should a player have a shot which hits the post their team defends this will not be considered as having accomplished such feat.
16) During certain events Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook might decide to offer for betting actions achieved by a reduced selection of participants (e.g., “Any Unlisted Team X player”) or a single participant as a representation of the whole squad (e.g., “Any Team X player”). In both cases, for settlement purposes, all unlisted squad members are to be deemed as starters (and settled as such), including substitutes, regardless of whether they take part in the match or not.
17) Bets on the performance of players starting the match as bench players or substitutes will be settled as void if the player is either listed in the starting 11 or does not take part in the match at all.
18) On offers such as “Next Goalscorer”, “Next Carded player”, “Next Assist”, “Man of the Match”, or other similar feats, bets will be voided should the chosen player not take part in the match at all or had no opportunity to accomplish such feat during the specified timeframe.
19) Bets on “Next Assist” for a particular goal will be settled as void should the governing body declare the specified goal as having been unassisted, the specified goal is an own goal, and/or no more goals are scored in the match during the specified timeframe.
20) Bets referring to the conversion and/or outcome of penalty kicks will be settled according to the outcome as it occurred on the field of play as per the rules governing that specific scenario, and in cases of penalty shoot-outs will remain valid regardless of the format employed by the governing body during the shoot-out. Bets stand in the event that the penalty shot is ordered to be re-taken, and will be settled with the outcome achieved from the re-taken penalty shot, with the original penalty shot being disregarded for settlement purposes.
As a general principle, settlement will be based on the concept that unless the penalty kick results in a goal being awarded (and settled accordingly), the first person/object/location (as applicable) which the ball initially touches after being kicked will be considered as determining the winning outcome, disregarding any other persons/objects the ball hits in its subsequent trajectory following any previous deflection, if any. The following examples provide general, non-exhaustive guideline on how this principle is applied to settlement:
“Goal” would be the winning outcome in case of the following scored penalties scenarios:
· Any penalty kick which ends up counting as a goal without it being deflected;
· Goalkeeper touches the penalty kick but ball ends up counted as goal;
· Penalty kick touches the woodwork before ending up in goal and counted as a goal.
“Save” would be the winning outcome in case of the following missed penalties scenarios:
· Goalkeeper deflects the penalty kick to outside the goal frame;
· Goalkeeper deflects the penalty kick onto the post/crossbar and the shot is not counted as a goal.
“Woodwork” would be the winning outcome in case of the following missed penalties scenarios:
· Penalty kick hits the woodwork (goal frame) before it is touched/saved by the goalkeeper;
· Penalty kick hits the woodwork (goal frame) and ball goes outside the goal frame.
“Any other Miss” would be the winning outcome in case of any penalty kick which without any deflection either by the goalkeeper or by the woodwork (goal frame) ends up outside the goal frame.
An exception to the above scenarios would be that in case of penalty shoot-outs, should the ball hit the woodwork during a penalty shot, bounce on the goalkeeper, and end in goal, such penalty will be considered as having been scored, while should said situation occur during any other part of the match which is not a penalty shoot-out, the penalty taker would be considered as having missed to score, and “hitting the woodwork” will be considered as the winning outcome.
21) Any decision taken by the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) which conflicts with the original decision sanctioned by the officials on the pitch (including non-decisions like allowing play to continue before reviewing the video), thus altering the understood state of the match at the time of bet placement, will result in all bets placed in the timeframe between the actual occurrence of the original incident, and the referee’s final decision on the incident, being settled as void, unless the odds offered on the specific bet offer are unaffected by the use of VAR or have already been accounted for in the odds offered at the time of bet acceptance. Settlement on all other unrelated bets including those determined by any play between the time of the original incident and the decision following the VAR review, which are not influenced/altered by the decision following the VAR review, will stand.
For settlement purposes VAR reviews, and the decisions emanating from said reviews, are to be considered as having happened at the time of the original incident for which the VAR would eventually be used, even if play has not been immediately interrupted- by the incident. Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook reserves the right, in accordance with <Section A, Para 6.2>, to reverse or modify the settlement of any previously settled offers where the settlement becomes inaccurate following the final referee decision, providing said decision is taken and communicated before the conclusion of the match and/or timeframe listed.
In order to avoid any doubts, Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook will consider the VAR as having been used if it is understood from the referee’s gestures and/or actions (e.g., hand gestures, stopping the match to review the incident themselves, etc.), and/or the VAR usage is confirmed by the match report issued by the official organization. In cases where it is unclear whether the VAR has been used due to missing TV coverage and/or conflicting reports, Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook will settle the bets on the basis of equity based on the information acquired from feed providers and reputable online sources.
22) For settlement purposes, markets referring to which team is to be shown the next Card (booking) and/or “Total Cards” will always consider a Red Card as 2 instances of a Card being shown and will be settled accordingly. The following example scenarios and outcomes are listed as a guideline:
• First Card shown in a match is a straight Red Card. The team of the player to whom the Card is shown will be settled as the winning selection for these offers: Team to be shown Cards #1 and #2;
• First card shown in a match is a Yellow Card followed by a straight Red Card to the same player without a second yellow Card being shown. The team of the player to whom the cards are shown will be settled as the winning selection for these offers: Team to be shown Cards #1, #2 and #3;
• First Card shown in a match is a Yellow Card followed by a second Yellow Card with the subsequent Red Card to the same player. The team of the player to whom the Cards are shown will be settled as the winning selection for these offers: Team to be shown Cards #1, #2 and #3.
23) Markets referring to which specific player will be the next to be booked/shown a Card are to be understood and settled as per the order of the instance in which each single player gets booked/shown a Card/sent off by the referee. The Card color shown by the referee will not be given any consideration in the settlement of this offer and the decisive criteria will always be the order in which the single player is considered to have gone into the referee’s book. For settlement purposes it is possible for a single player to be listed twice as the “Next Carded player” in situations where both bookings occur during different interruptions of play. Should 2 or more players be booked during the same interruption of play, bets on this offer will be settled as void.
24) Any reference to “Free Kicks”, both when presented as a single outcome, and when presented as an occurrence, will also take into consideration Free Kicks awarded for offsides violations and any other violation except those sanctioned with a penalty.
25) Offers referring to specific player(s) playing the whole match require the specified player(s) to start the match for bets to stand. For settlement purposes, bets will be settled as YES only if the specified player(s) is/are neither substituted nor sent off during Regular Time only. Eventual extra time does not count.
13. Golf
1) All bets will be deemed as valid as long as the Tournament, or the relative round which the bet refers to, is played within the same sporting season and within 3 months from the last scheduled date (as per local course time), as determined by the governing body, irrespective of any time delays, unless other terms are specified in the bet offer.
2) All bets referring to Tournament Performance, including but not limited to Winner, Place, Each-way, Winner without X, Group Betting, Top Nationality, Individual Final Position, etc., will be deemed valid as long as the minimum number of holes, applicable to the offer, as per the rules of the governing body (e.g., 36 holes for European Tour sanctioned events or 54 holes for PGA Tour sanctioned events), have been completed by the eligible players, and an official result has been declared by the governing body. Should the format of a tournament be changed so that it features fewer rounds/holes than originally scheduled, all bets which were accepted on such offers after the last shot of the last completed round will be declared void.
3) Bet offers already decided are considered valid bets even though 36 holes are not played and/or an official result has not been issued by the organisation.
4) Any result deriving from officially-sanctioned playoffs will count towards the settlement of Tournament offers only. Unless otherwise specified, offers referring to the performance within a specific round or hole will not take into account outcomes deriving from playoffs.
.
5) Bets on a player or players who start a Tournament, but withdraw or are disqualified before completing the Tournament, will be settled as losing bets, unless the result of the offer which the bet refers to, is already determined at the time the player(s) withdraw or are disqualified and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets.
6) All bets placed on participants who do not compete at all will be settled as void and refunded.
7) In outright bets which include a limited selection of participants, such as Top Nationality, Group Betting, Six-shooters, etc., Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook reserves the right to apply Tattersalls Rule 4 as to any non-starter. Should it be the case that all players listed in the offer “miss the cut”, the player with the best position at the time the “cut” was made will be deemed the winner. Dead Heat rules will apply except for cases where an officially-sanctioned playoff has determined a different finishing position, where applicable.
8) All “Head to Head” bet offers require all participants to start in the event/round to which the bet refers to.
9) In “Head to Head” bets featuring only two players, bets will be voided if both participants share the same finishing position and no draw option has been offered. In “Head to Head” bets featuring three players, should two or more participants share the same finishing position, stakes will be divided in accordance with <Section B, Para 5.19>.
10) Settlement of “Head to Head” bet offers involving the performance of two or more players (e.g. Best Finishing Position in the tournament) will be based upon the best finishing position/lowest score (as applicable) achieved in the relative event/round which the bet refers to.
11) Any reference to whether a player will Make/Miss the “Cut” requires an official cut/exclusion effected by the organizers for bets to stand. In the case of tournaments where players are eliminated during more than one phase, settlement will be based on a whether the player has qualified or not following the first “Cut” made.
12) Disqualification of or withdrawal by a player before the “Cut” is made will result in the player being considered as having missed the “Cut” for settlement of “Make the Cut” offers. Disqualifications/withdrawals subsequent to the “Cut”" being made will not be considered as to the original settlement of “Make the Cut” offers.
13) In “Head to Head” bets based on the best finishing position in the tournament, in case one player misses the cut then the other player will be settled as the winner. If both participants fail to make the “Cut” the player with the lowest score at the “Cut” will be considered the winner for settlement of such bets. Should both players fail to make the “Cut” with the same score at the time the “Cut” was made then the bet will be void. A player disqualified after the “Cut” has been made is deemed to have beaten a player who has failed to make the “Cut”.
14) Any reference to “Majors” will be based on the tournaments for that particular season to which the PGA Tour attributes said definition, irrespective of any venue, date, or any other changes.
15) Should play be stopped after a round has started and the governing body decide to cancel all prior play referring to that round and start the round from scratch or cancel altogether said round, then all bets placed after the start of that round on the Tournament’s Outright Winner market, Leader After Round market, and the Miss/Make the cut market will be void.
16) Bets referring to a specific participant placing within a predetermined position (example: Top 5/10/20/40) during a Tournament, selection of Tournaments or any particular designated events or subsets of events will be settled as per “Dead Heat” rules should the participant tie for that particular position.
17) Offers related to a participant occupying a particular position on the Leaderboard at a specific time (e.g., “Leader at End of Round X”) will be settled in accordance with the result at the end of the specified round/timeframe. “Dead Heat” rules shall apply should the participant tie for that particular position.
18) In tournaments where “modified Stableford scoring” is used, bets will be settled on the basis of points scored and not strokes taken. Listed players must complete at least 1 hole for bets to stand, otherwise bets will be void.
19) Settlement of so-called “Action-betting” offers and similar offers, including but not limited to “Fairways/Greens in Regulation/Bunkers/Water Hazards” offers, are settled on the exact location where the ball is deemed to have come to rest. Bets will be settled according to the Official Website of the Tour/event involved, and should no information for such settlement be published then television pictures will be used to determine the outcome. The following description and settlement rules are applicable to “Action-betting” offers:

1) Unless otherwise stated, all bets on Swimming events are determined on the basis of the result after the final stage of that competition. For wagers on individual participants, if neither/none of the listed participants takes part in the final stage, all bets will be void, unless the governing body follows specific tie-breaking procedures, in which case, bets resolved by those procedures will be deemed valid and settled according to the official results determined by the governing body.
2) All bet offers will be settled based on the first official result being presented, unless those results are specifically denominated as “preliminary”. However, Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook will settle or re-settle accordingly based on any changes to the official result issued within 24 hours after the event has taken place as the result of a formal protest. For such changes to be taken into account for settlement or re-settlement, the protest must be attributable to incidents happening exclusively during the event, such as a lane infringement, an early start in a relay race, etc. No changes to settlement will take place as a result of doping or other code of conduct violations external to the event itself.

2) “Match” bet offers are settled based on tournament progress or tournament wins, depending on which phase of the competition the offer refers to. The player/team progressing to the next round or winning the tournament is to be considered as the winner of the associated bet regardless of withdrawals, disqualifications, etc. These bets require at least one set to be completed for bets to stand.
3) “Over/Under” and “Handicap” offers relating to matches which are abandoned, interrupted, or otherwise unfinished, will be settled based on the result at the time of the interruption where the outcome of which is already determined before the interruption of play and/or where any further continuance of play could not possibly produce a different outcome to said offers. For the calculation of these settlements, the minimum number of occurrences which should have been needed to bring the offer to the natural conclusion will be added as necessary depending on the number of sets which the match is scheduled for. Should this calculation produce a situation where no possible alterations could affect the outcome of the offer this will be settled as such. The following examples can be used for reference:
· Example 1 - Over/Under: A retirement occurs in a match scheduled for three sets with the score 7-6, 4-4. The offers: “Total Games Set 2 – 9.5” (or any lines lower than that amount) & “Total Games Played in the Match – 22.5” (or any lines lower than that amount) will be settled with “Over” bets as winning and “Under” bets as losing, since any natural conclusion of the second set would have required at least 10 games (based on the set score being 4-4 at the time of retirement, and a finished score therefore requiring at least two more games). Bets on lines higher than that will be settled as void.
· Example 2 - Handicap: A retirement occurs at the start of the third set in a match scheduled for five sets with the score at 1-1. Bets on +2.5/-2.5 Sets will be settled as winners and losers respectively. Offers on any lines lower than that amount will be settled as void.

5) All offer types not specified above require at least one set to be completed for bets to stand, except for those offers the outcome of which has already been determined before play is interrupted or discontinued and any further continuation of play could not possibly produce a different outcome, in which case offers will be settled on the basis of the outcome at the time of the interruption or discontinuation of play.
6) In a Doubles match, all bets will be declared void if any of the players listed in the offer are replaced.
7) Any reference to “Grand Slams” will be based on the tournaments for that particular season to which the ITF attributes said definition, irrespective of any venue, date, or any other changes.
8) Bets on Doubles matches in the Round Robin stages of the Davis Cup Finals, Billie Jean King Cup Finals and ATP Cup will always stand, even if the score in the tie is 2-0 [unless listed players are replaced?]. For all other Davis Cup, ATP Cup and Billie Jean King Cup ties, the Doubles matches will be void, if the tie has already been decided.
9) Results acquired in a “Pro Set” will be valid only for the following offers: “Match”, “Set Handicap”, “Set Betting” and “Total Sets”. All other types of offers will be settled as void, with the exception of offers the outcome of which had already been determined and any further continuation of play could not possibly produce a different outcome. Should a match be played in a format or with a number of sets different than that specified at time the offer was published, Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook will void the applicable offers pertaining to that match or those matches, unless the necessary number of occurrences has already been achieved regardless of the change in format/number of sets.
10) As a general rule “tie-breaks” or “tiebreakers” are considered as one game only, regardless of the number of points needed to win or whatever the format of the “tie-break”. The following tie-break scenarios will be settled as follows:
· “Match tie-break”: Normally played instead of the decisive set when both participants have won the same number of sets. For settlement purposes, this is considered as a full set as well as a game and counted accordingly. However, it will not be considered as a tie-break for the settlement of the relevant offers;
· “Tiebreak at 6-6 in a set, first to 7 points”: For settlement purposes, this is considered to be one game and counted accordingly, as well as a tie-break for the settlement of the relevant offers;
· “Tiebreak at 6-6 in a set, first to 10 points”: For settlement purposes, this is considered to be one game and counted accordingly, as well as a tie-break for the settlement of the relevant offers;
· “Tiebreak at 12-12 in a set, first to 7 points”: For settlement purposes, this is considered to be one game and counted accordingly, as well as a tie-break for the settlement of the relevant offers;
· “Tiebreak at 3-3 in a set, first to 7 points” (aka Fast 4 format): For settlement purposes, this is considered to be 1 game and counted accordingly, as well as a tie-break for the settlement of the relevant offers;
· “Tiebreak Tens”: A match which consists solely of a tie-break with the winning participant being the one to first reach 10 points and lead by a margin of 2. This is considered both as a tie-break and as a full match for the settlement of the relevant offers.
Should any match include a tie-break format not listed above, offers will be settled according to the definitions as described by the ITF, or in absentia, the definitions that are determined in Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook’s sole discretion to be closest in principle to the examples listed above.
11) “Win/Place” and “Each-Way” bets referring to the Tournament Winner which are placed between the time of the first publication of the main draw by the governing body and the start of the competition will be refunded should the listed participant not take any further part in the Tournament following publication of the main draw but before the start of the competition. Notwithstanding the forgoing, any participants still involved in the Qualifying stages will be considered as active participants.
12) Bets on season-related performances (e.g., “number of Grand Slam titles won” or “to finish top 20 or not”) will be void if the player does not play at least 5 ranking point-awarding events during the season.

points tallied during the so called “Golden Set” will not count for settlement
of the offers relating to that particular match, with the exception of any bets
referring to tournament progression and Tournament Totals, in which case such

2) Offers
referring to individual player performances in a single match (e.g., “Total
Points Scored by Player X”) or comparative performances from 2 individual
players during the course of a match (e.g., “Which of Player X or Player Y will
score most Points”), require all listed individuals to be an active participant
in the applicable match for bets to stand.
3) “Over/Under”
and "Handicap" offers on unfinished matches the outcome of which had
been already determined before the interruption of play, and/or where any
further continuance of play could not possibly produce a different outcome to
said offers, will be settled based on the result achieved until the
interruption. For the calculation of these settlements, the minimum number of
occurrences which should have been needed to bring the offer to the natural
conclusion will be added as necessary depending on the number of sets which the
match is scheduled for. Should this calculation produce a situation where no
possible alterations could affect the outcome of the offer, this will be
settled as such. See examples from the Tennis section for reference.
4) All
“Correct Score” offers, “Odd/Even” offers, and those offers which refer to the
winner of a particular period/timeframe in the match (e.g., “Which team will
win the 1st set?”, and “Set 2 – Race to 15 points”) require the relevant part
of the match to be completed.

2) Results from a competition will be deemed valid if it is declared as a valid competition for the relevant category by the governing body for that sport. This applies in case of an event being shortened, such as only consisting of one run/jump instead of two, or an event being moved to another venue.
3) In cases of abandoned, incomplete, or interrupted events, all offers the outcome of which had been already determined before the interruption of play and any further continuation of play could not possibly produce a different outcome are deemed valid and will be settled accordingly.
4) All offers will be settled as void if the originally-stated format of an event is changed in its entirety, including but not limited to changes in the size of hill in Ski Jumping, changes in style in Cross Country Skiing, etc.

6) Bets related to specific Winter Sports events (excluding bets referring to overall classifications and Olympic, World and Continental competitions) are offered on the premise that the specific event which is the subject of the offer will be the next event held in that particular sport/discipline. Should the specific event be moved for any reason whatsoever and an exactly similar event for that sport/discipline is held in the same location starting in not more than 72 hours, the bets will be valid for the next scheduled event in that sport/discipline. Thus, if for example two exactly similar but separate races from the same sport/discipline are scheduled for Friday and Saturday and the Friday competition is moved to Saturday or Sunday, the bets on the Friday competition will be settled based on the results of the next scheduled event, in this case the originally scheduled Saturday’s events. In cases where only a single event is scheduled in that sport/discipline and the starting time is moved less than 72 hours, bets will remain valid and will be settled accordingly. Should no event with the same characteristics be held in the 72-hour period after the initially-scheduled time, bets will be settled as void.

8) All bet offers will be settled based on the first official result being presented, unless those results or specifically denominated as “preliminary”. However, Unibet at Swinomish Sportsbook will take into account and settle or re-settle accordingly, based on any changes to the official result issued within 24 hours after the event has taken place as the result of a formal protest. For such changes to be taken into account for settlement or re-settlement, the protest must be attributable to incidents happening exclusively during the event, such as a line infringement, pushes, a false handover in a relay race, etc. No changes to settlement will take place as a result of doping or other code of conduct external to the event itself.. The result as it stands 24 hours following the conclusion of the event will be deemed as binding regardless of any further protests, changes to the official result, or other modifications to the event outcome.
26. Mixed Martial Arts

2) Unless clearly specified in the offer that the fights which are the subject of the offer are unconfirmed and may be changed, bets are only valid should the fight take place on the card/date it was announced for irrespective of any change in venue/location. Bets will be settled as void should there be any official announcement by the organizing body of a date postponement, re-scheduling to a different card, or change in fighters even if such changes are eventually reversed and said match ends up taking place as originally announced.
3) With the exception of the instances as detailed in <Section C, Para 33, Clause 4>, addition or removal of title stipulations (e.g., a match initially announced as a non-title match gets changed into a title match) or changes in weight classes as well as either/both of the fighters fail to make the pre-established weight, will not result in the voiding of the offers to the extent that the fight takes place on the card it was announced for.
4) If for any reason, the number of scheduled rounds in a fight is changed between the time of bet acceptance and the actual fight, offers which make specific reference to rounds, such as “Round betting”, “Group of Rounds”, “Over/Under”, “Winning Method”, and “To go the distance”, or other offers which would be affected by such change, will be declared void. Offers which do not make specific reference to rounds will remain valid.
5) For settlement purposes, in case the fight is interrupted or abandoned for any reason in between rounds, e.g., retirement before the start of a round, disqualification, failure to answer the bell, etc., the fight will be deemed to have finished at the end of the previous round.
6) Offers on fights declared as a “No Contest” or where neither fighter is declared as the only winner of the fight, will be settled as void, except in cases where such outcome was offered for betting purposes or for those offers the outcome of which has been decided prior to the decision and could not possibly be changed regardless of future events, which will be settled according to the decided outcome as announced.

9) In offers where a draw/tie is possible and odds have not been offered for such outcome, bets will be settled as void should the official result be declared as such.

11) Settlement of statistics-based offers such as "Fighter to have most takedowns" or "Fighter to have most significant strikes" will be settled based on the results issued by the governing body or its recognized official partner for such statistics. Settlement will be determined according to the definition under which the official governing body issues said statistics. In cases where both fighters are declared as having accomplished the same result and said outcome was not available as a possible outcome for betting purposes, bets will be voided.
12) Markets which compare or tally results from multiple fights on the same card such as “Total KOs/TKOs on the card” or “Total matches to end by decision on the card” will indicate the number of fights required to take place on a card, or list specifically the section of the card the bet relates to. Bets will remain valid should any applicable fight be cancelled as long as .the number of fights on the card or the applicable specific section of it remain the same (e.g., if a fight is re-booked completely, a replacement fighter is substituted for one fighter, or undercard/preliminary matches are moved to the main card).

3) “Over/Under” offers on unfinished matches/events, the outcome of which had been already determined before any interruption, and for which any further continuance of play could not possibly produce a different outcome to said offers, will be settled based on the result achieved at the point the interruption occurred. For calculation of these settlements, the minimum number of occurrences which should have been needed to bring the offer to the natural conclusion will be added as necessary depending on the number of frames which the match is scheduled for. Should this calculation produce a situation where no possible alterations could affect the outcome of the offer, the offer will be settled as such. See examples from the Tennis section for reference.

3) “Over/Under” offers on unfinished matches/events the outcome of which is already determined before the interruption and/or any further continuance of play could not possibly produce a different outcome to said offers, will be settled based on the result achieved until the interruption. For the calculation of these settlements, the minimum number of occurrences which should have been needed to bring the offer to the natural conclusion will be added as necessary depending on the number of legs which the match is scheduled for. Should this calculation produce a situation where no possible alterations could affect the outcome of the offer this will be settled as such. See examples from the Tennis section for reference.
4) “Handicap” offers require all scheduled sets to be completed for bets to stand except in those events the outcome of which is already determined before the interruption and/or any further continuance of play could not possibly produce a different outcome to said offers which will be settled accordingly. See examples from the Tennis section for reference.
5) All “Correct Score”, “Odd/Even” and those offers which refer to the winner of a particular period in the match (e.g., “Player to win the first set” or “First Player to reach X Sets”) require the relevant part of the match to be completed.
6) All types of offers not specified above require at least one set to be completed for bets to stand, except for those offers the outcome of which is already determined before the interruption of play and any further continuation of play could not possibly produce a different outcome.
7) Offers combining a number of occurrences by a specific player within a match/event (example: King of the Oche, etc), require that all connotations related to the offer bet must be fully and unquestionably complied with. Should 1 or more parts of the offer end in a tie, bets will be settled as LOST.
8) All offers that refer to a “{x}+checkout” will be settled as yes on occurrences of the checkout of {x} or more inclusive. For example, the offer “100+Checkout – Leg 1” will be settled as yes, if there is exactly a 100 checkout in Leg 1.
