These House Rules govern the use of Potawatomi Sportsbook wagering operations located at Potawatomi Sportsbook Milwaukee and Potawatomi Sportsbook Carter Casino as well as the Potawatomi Sportsbook website(s) and mobile app (“App”), collectively the “Site”. These House Rules refer to the physical sportsbooks and the Site, collectively “Potawatomi Sportsbook”. When placing a bet with Potawatomi Sportsbook, the patron is agreeing that they have read, understand and agree to these House Rules, including the General Betting Rules as well as Terms of Service and Privacy Policy when wagering on the Site.
The House Rules consist of the following:
The General Betting Rules, Section B, below, apply to all bets with Potawatomi Sportsbook unless stated otherwise in the Specific Sports Rules, Section C. If there is any inconsistency between the Sports/eSports Specific Rules and the General Betting Rules, the Sports/eSports Specific Rules shall prevail. General Betting Rules will apply to any category of bets or markets not referred to in the Sports/eSports Specific Rules (i.e., special bets).
The use of Potawatomi Sportsbook is subject to (a) the 2022 amended and extended Forest County Potawatomi Community of Wisconsin Class III Gaming Compact and (b) the regulatory authority of the Forest County Potawatomi Gaming Commission (the “Gaming Commission”). In the event of a conflict between these House Rules and any of these regulatory authorities, the regulatory authorities and their provisions will prevail.
Any questions regarding the Site, an account, or use of the Site, will be addressed by contacting support@potawatomisportsbook.com.
Any complaints, claims or disputes concerning any outcome of any sports wager placed with Potawatomi Sportsbooks may be brought in person to the Potawatomi Sportsbook in Milwaukee or Carter. You may also contact Guest Relations Dispute Resolution at (800) PAYSBIG (729-7244) or in writing at ATTN: Guest Relations Department, 1721 West Canal Street, Milwaukee, WI 53233. All requests will be responded to within ten (10) business days of being received. Should the reply not be considered satisfactory, a request to appeal the dispute may be completed in writing to the Forest County Potawatomi Gaming Commission.
Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right to make changes to the Site, betting limits, payout limits and offerings.
Potawatomi Sportsbook may update, amend, edit and supplement these House Rules at any time, subject to any necessary regulatory approval. Any such revision will be binding and effective immediately once such revisions or revised House Rules are made available to patrons through updates to the House Rules posted at the betting windows, kiosks, the casino cages in Milwaukee/Carter or the Site. Any wagers accepted after the rule changes have been made available to guests shall be governed by the revised Potawatomi Sportsbook House Rules.
Potawatomi Sportsbook’s final determination as to the interpretation and application of the house rules is binding on the patron.
Wagers may only be made using cash, casino chips, Sportsbook vouchers, Sportsbook tickets of value, other representative of value or credits from a wagering account.
Potawatomi Sportsbook is not responsible for misprinted, lost, stolen, mutilated, damaged, forged, or altered tickets. “Stolen tickets” includes both physical tickets and those obtained by anyone other than the original ticket holder through photos, screenshots, social media posts, or any other methods. All decisions regarding the ownership of lost or stolen tickets will be made solely at the discretion of Potawatomi Sportsbook and will be final.
Sportsbook tickets of value expire after 180 calendar days from either the time of the last event or the date of issuance for vouchers. Sportsbook tickets of value must be redeemed at one of Potawatomi Sportsbook’s casinos in either Milwaukee or Carter. Guests may redeem tickets of value at either the Sportsbook counter (Milwaukee), when open, any casino cage, or at a Sportsbook cash redemption terminal (Milwaukee).
All wagers purchased on the Site will be evidenced by a transaction in the patron’s account. Once a wager is accepted by both parties, bets will not be altered or voided except at the discretion of Potawatomi Sportsbook. All patrons are responsible for ensuring accuracy of the bet.
The time of all tickets is local Wisconsin time.
Patrons have the option to mail in winning tickets up to $2,000 in value. All information pertaining to mailing in tickets is printed on the back of each ticket. Patrons submitting a ticket for payment by mail may be required to complete tax forms. All redemptions above $2,000 must be in person.
Pre-game wagers are accepted up to the start of the game. If a pre-game wager is inadvertently accepted after the start of the event the wager will be treated as “no action” (this excludes live in-game wagering).
If Potawatomi Sportsbook has reason to believe that a bet is placed after the outcome of an event is known, it reserves the right to void the bet, win or lose.
Wagers may not be accepted at other than posted odds and the customer is responsible for confirming the accuracy of their digital betslip prior to bet placement at a counter, on a kiosk, or on the Site.
All wagers will be deemed to have been accepted from the person placing the wager only, and not on behalf of any third party. For tickets purchased on the Site, the holder of an account may place wagers only for his or her own personal use, and not as the agent for any other person, as part of a wagering syndicate, or for commercial or professional purposes.
The following persons are prohibited from placing a sports betting wager or collecting winnings on a wager:
Potawatomi Sportsbook will not accept wagers on any events or markets involving a Wisconsin college.
Current odds will be displayed on the retail odds boards, kiosks, and Site. Any changes to the odds will be indicated on the odds board, kiosk and Site when a change is made. The patron is responsible for checking these sources of information for the most current odds inclusive of removal of odds if the event has been cancelled.
Winning sports wagers will be paid in cash or via check or other manner as approved by the Gaming Commission. Winnings on the Site will be automatically credited to the patron’s account. Winnings are subject to IRS and Wisconsin reporting and withholding requirements, if applicable.
By participating in sports wagering activities at Potawatomi Sportsbook, patrons will be deemed to have agreed to these House Rules.
Any reference in these House Rules to words/objects that appear in singular also applies to plural. References to gender are non-binding and to be treated as for informational purposes only.
With gambling comes responsibility, if you need information on dealing with a gambling problem, call the Wisconsin Council on Problem Gambling’s 24-hour helpline at 1-800-426-2535. Additional resources are available at potawatomi.com/business/responsible-gaming.
“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 Potawatomi Sportsbook or the patron at the relevant time and which has caused or resulted in a bet being offered and/or accepted.
Examples of errors include, but are not limited to:
“Influence Betting” is an act, prohibited by Potawatomi Sportsbook, where a patron, account holder or party acting in association with a patron or account holder can influence, or have influenced, the outcome of a game/match/event—directly or indirectly.
“Syndicate Betting” is an act, prohibited by Potawatomi Sportsbook, where patrons or account holders act together to place a series of bets on the same event or competition, or when a patron or account holder places a bet on behalf, or for the intended benefit, of another individual or other individuals. Where there is evidence of patrons or account holders acting together in this manner Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right to make the relevant bets void and/or withhold payment of returns pending the outcome of subsequent investigations.
When placing a wager on the Site, a bet is not valid until it shows in the patron’s bet history. In cases of uncertainty about whether a bet has been accepted, the patron is requested to check the open (pending) bets or contact Potawatomi Sportsbook customer service.
Unless accepted in Error, once a bet is accepted, it cannot be withdrawn by the patron or account holder. It is the patron’s responsibility to ensure the details of bets placed are correct. Under no circumstance will Potawatomi Sportsbook be responsible for any mistakes (perceived or actual) deriving from either Errors as defined in this Conditions of Agreement, or any other reason, such as but not limited to, incorrect listing of the odds/betting objects.
Should a dispute arise about the acceptance (or lack thereof) of any bet, or the time at which any bet was placed, Potawatomi Sportsbook transaction log database will be the ultimate authority in determining such matters.
Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right to refuse to accept any bet at any time and for any reason to:
Preserve the integrity of the offered market (e.g., events where there is an exceptional or unbalanced number of bets on the same market).
Protect the patron (e.g., event in which a patron displays compulsive behavior).
Protect other users (e.g., event in which a patron displays betting pattern(s) that could adversely affect the regular betting of other patrons).
To protect Potawatomi Sportsbook (e.g., event in which a patron exhibits money laundering, collusive or fraudulent behavior, or suspicion of use of a third party's account, allowing a third party to use an account, or using automated means, bots, software or similar means, or engaging in arbitrage).
If a bet offer by a patron is greater than that deemed acceptable to Potawatomi Sportsbook, Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right to accept a portion of the bet up to a certain amount.
Placement of additional wagers on the same market at the same odds is prohibited. Enforcement of this prohibition is at the discretion of Sportsbook management in accordance with approved policies and procedures, and failure to comply may result in restriction of play up to and including a ban from the property.
Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right to limit the net payout (the payout after the stake has been deducted) on any bet or combination of bets by one patron to $250,000 for bets placed. Extension of this limit requires approval by the Director of Sportsbook or above. This limit may be lower depending on the specific sport, league and type of bet offer. See Section F – Sport Specific Limits for additional detail of payout limits by sport, league and bet type.
Potawatomi Sportsbook does not permit wagers of less than $5.00 over the counter or at a kiosk, or less than $1.00 on the Site. The maximum wager amount is dependent upon the total payout amount and Potawatomi Sportsbook may require supervisor approval.
Any wagers or payouts in excess of $3,000, unless processed through a verified wagering account, require a valid ID to complete the transaction.
Due to the requirement directly above in A.4.3, any placement of wagers on kiosks that would put a patron at or over $3,000 in total stake wagered for the day, those wagers are prohibited from being placed on kiosks and must be conducted at the Sportsbook betting counter. This also applies to a combination of wagers placed at the betting counter and kiosks.
All bet selections are subject to pre-imposed limits set solely at Potawatomi Sportsbook’s discretion which may be lower than the limits mentioned in Sport Specific Limits, Section F. Should this limit be reached, a patron has the right to ask for it to be increased at one of the Potawatomi Sportsbooks or by making a request through the Potawatomi Sportsbook Site. Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right to accept (fully or partially) or reject the request without any prior notice or further explanation.
Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right to decline all, or part of, any bet requested, solely at its own discretion.
Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right to restrict, limit or exclude patrons, totally or partially, at its own discretion.
All bets placed through any Potawatomi Sportsbook platform, including bets requiring manual approval, may be subject to a time delay prior to acceptance, the length of which may vary. Such delay is to be determined by Potawatomi Sportsbook at its sole discretion.
Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right to withhold payment and/or to declare bets void on an event (or series of events) if there is sufficient evidence that any of the following has occurred:
The integrity of the event has been called into question;
The price(s) or pool has been manipulated;
Game-fixing has taken place, or the game/match is under investigation for such;
Results/outcomes need further investigation with a third-party organization, including, but not limited to, the governing body and/or the relevant regulatory body.
All odds offered are subject to variation. Such fluctuation is determined solely at Potawatomi Sportsbook’s discretion. Bets are accepted only at the odds available on the odds boards or on the Site’s odds menu at the time the bet was accepted by Potawatomi Sportsbook, regardless of any other claim or previous publication present on the website or any other media detailing otherwise.
When settling bets, all payout calculations will be done in true decimal odds, regardless of another format displayed or chosen at time of bet placement.
1) A bet can be declared void. In the event that the bet is void, the bet amount will be refunded to the patron.
2) A bet made as a Parlay Bet involving two or more distinct sporting events shall remain valid even if a game/match or an event which is part of the Parlay Bet is declared void.
3) Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to declare a bet void, totally or partly, if any of the following 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 market; b. Bets placed while the kiosk, betting window or Site was encountering technical problems, that would otherwise not have been accepted; c. Influence Betting; d. Syndicate Betting; e. A result has been affected by criminal actions - directly or indirectly; f. A public announcement has occurred in relation to the bet which alters the odds; g. A bet has been offered in breach of gambling regulations.
4) Related contingencies (correlated parlays): Unless placed through Potawatomi Sportsbook’s permitted parlay functionality, or offered explicitly as a specific related contingency offering, Potawatomi Sportsbook prohibits parlay bets that include two or more outcomes which might turn out to be related (e.g., Team X to become Stanley Cup Champions and Player Y to be Top Goal Scorer in the same league). Although Potawatomi Sportsbook takes reasonable steps to prevent such possibilities, in the eventuality that this could happen, Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right, in its discretion, to declare void all parts of a parlay bet which include the correlated outcomes whose odds are not indicative of the related contingency.
5) Bets can be voided regardless of whether the event has been settled or not.
6) Should a market be available for betting when it should have been removed or with incorrect odds, Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right to void all such bets as well as those in accordance with the Conditions of Agreement, Section A, Chapter 5, Clause 3, including, but not limited to:
a. Pre-Game Wagersi. Bets placed or accepted after the event has started;
i. Bets placed after a related event was underway and where conditions could have been altered in a direct and indisputable way.
b. In-play (in-game) Wagers
i. Bets placed/accepted at incorrect odds due to delayed or failing “live” coverage;
ii. Bets placed on odds which represented a different score than the actual Bets placed on particular offers after these have occurred or after an event which could normally be deemed as leading to the outcome has happened or is happening;
iii. Bets placed following the last instance that a participant 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 to influence scoring will be declared void;
Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right, at its own discretion, to adjust a payout credited to a patron if it is obvious that the payout has been made in Error as defined in A.2.1.
For account wagering, in order to adjust any inaccuracy in the patron's balance following amounts credited due to an Error as defined in A.2.1., Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right to take any necessary action, without prior notice and within reasonable limits, to adjust the patron's balance through the reversal, amendment or cancellation of any subsequent transaction on the patron's account.
Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right to suspend access to the Sportsbook or patron’s account until it completes any investigations it deems necessary.
These rules are applicable to all transactions with Potawatomi Sportsbook and may be supplemented with other rules. In the event of ambiguity, priority should be considered in the following order:
Rules and conditions published in conjunction with an offer and/or promotion;
Should these be inconclusive, reference will be made to the General Betting Rules, unless the Sport-Specific Rules outlined in Section C declare otherwise.
Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right, in its discretion, to settle offers on an individual basis as a result of equity, using generally accepted betting norms, customs and definitions.
Adaptations into other languages of these House Rules, or any other text which can be associated with bet offers, are done for purely informative purposes. Although Potawatomi Sportsbook takes reasonable precautions to assure an accurate translation of these terms into the specific language, Potawatomi Sportsbook will not be responsible for any inconsistency between the English version and any other language. Thus, in case of discrepancy between the English edition and the respective translation, the former will be deemed as binding and will be the basis upon which the offers will be settled.
Any data provided or accessible in, from or related to the Sportsbook may be used by the patron for private, non-commercial use only and any use or attempted use of such data for commercial purposes is strictly prohibited.
Potawatomi Sportsbook has the right to enforce a term of this agreement.
Unless listed either in conjunction with the bet offer, or 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 respective governing body. For example, in Soccer, Full Time is stipulated to be 90 minutes including injury time, and in 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 such event is to be played over a different duration, this will be treated as being the official rules for the event (e.g., a soccer match played with a 3 x 20-minute format vs. the typical 2 x 40-minute format). Nonetheless, such occurrence is limited to the “regular” playing time and does not include any prolongation such as extra time or overtime, unless explicitly stated.
“In-game betting”, “in-play betting”, or “live betting” is where it is possible to bet after the game has started (i.e., during the game or event). Potawatomi Sportsbook will not be responsible if it is not possible to place a bet or if the live score update is not correct. At all times, the patron is responsible for being aware of the game and the events surrounding it, such as the current score, its progression and how much time remains before the game is completed. Potawatomi Sportsbook will not be responsible for changes to the in-game betting schedule or interruption of the in-game betting service.
The “Early Cash Out” or “Cash Out” function allows the patron the ability to redeem a bet prior to the outcome being settled at its current value. It is available on designated events and offered for pre-game and live as well as on single and multiple bets. Early Cash Out functionality cannot be used on free bets. Early Cash Out requests might be subject to the same delay procedure as listed in the Conditions of Agreement, Section A, Chapter 4, Clause 5. During this delay, for whatever reason, if the offer is removed or odds fluctuate, the Early Cash Out request will not be accepted, and the patron will be notified. Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right to offer such functionality solely at its own discretion and will not be responsible if the Early Cash Out functionality is not available. If an Early Cash Out request is successful, the bet will be settled immediately and any subsequent events which occur in relation with the bet will not be considered. If an Early Cash Out bet is negatively impacted from a technical, pricing or settlement error at any time between the time of original offering and the final settlement, Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right to rectify such inaccuracy in accordance with the Conditions of Agreement, Section A, Chapter 6, Clause 2.
The “Participant” is an object constituting part of an event. A “participant” may be a single player, a team or any group of individuals grouped or listed together. In “Head-to-Head” and “Triple-Head”, the participant only refers to objects that are subject to the “Head-to-Head” or “Triple-Head” in the event. Any reference to a participant(s) in these House Rules should be construed accordingly, regardless of whether the term is used in the singular or plural.
The deadline (cut-off time) shown within wagering systems or on the Site is to be treated for information purposes only. Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right, at its own discretion, to suspend, partially or completely, the betting activity at any time where it deems necessary.
Statistics or editorial text published on the Site are to be considered as added information, and Potawatomi Sportsbook will not be responsible if the information is not correct. The patron is responsible, at all times, to be aware of circumstances relating to an event.
The theoretical return to the player in fixed odds betting is determined by the odds of all possible outcomes in the offer. For example, the theoretical payback to a player on a bet 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
“Straight” or “Single-Game” bet is a single wager on any spread, moneyline or total (over/under) outcome.
“Moneyline” or “Game” is where it is possible to bet on the (partial or definite) outcome of a game or event whereby there will only be one winner.
“3-way Moneyline” or “1X2” or “Match” is where it is possible to bet on the (partial or definite) outcome of a game or event inclusive of the option of a tie. The options are: “1” = Team 1/Participant 1, or the participant listed to the left/top of the offer; “X” = Tie, or the selection in the middle; “2” = Team 2/Participant 2, or the participant listed to the right/bottom of the offer.
“Correct Score” or “Result Betting” is where it is possible to bet on the (partial or definite) exact score of a game or event.
“Total” or “Over/Under” 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. Example: an offer where the betting line is 44.0 points and the game ends with the result 22-22 will be declared void.
“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.
“Head-to-Head” and/or “Triple-Head” is a competition between two or three participants/outcomes, originating from either an officially organized event or as virtually defined by Potawatomi Sportsbook. An example of a Triple-Head offer is which of three golfers will finish highest in a particular event.
“Half Time/Full Time” is where it is possible to bet on the Half Time result and the final outcome of the game. For example, if at Half Time the score is 10-7 and the final score is 17-21, the winning outcome is 1/2 (assuming the score is listed Home Team-Away Team, the Home Team led at the half and the Away Team won the overall game or “Full Time”). Bets on this market will be declared void should the game be played with a format where it is impossible to determine an outcome based on the timeframes listed within the offer.
“Period betting” is where it is possible to bet on the outcome of each separate period within a game/event. For example, if the period scores in an Ice Hockey game are 2-0, 0-1 and 1-1, the winning outcome is 1/2/X. Bets on this market will be declared void should the game be played with a format where it is impossible to determine an outcome based on the timeframes listed within the offer.
“Tie No Bet” or “Draw No Bet” is where it is possible to bet on either “1” or “2” as defined in the General Betting Rules, Section B, Paragraph 2, Clause 3. It is also common practice to refer to Tie No Bet in cases where no tie odds are offered. Should the specific game produce no winner (e.g., game ends in a tie) or the occurrence does not happen (e.g., First Goal, Draw No Bet and match ends 0-0), all wagers will be refunded.
“Spread” (or “Point Spread” for Football and Basketball, “Run Line” for Baseball, “Puck Line” for Hockey betting, or “Handicap”) is where it is possible to bet on whether the chosen outcome will be victorious once the listed spread/line is added/subtracted (as applicable) to the game/period/total score to which the bet refers. In those circumstances where the result after the adjustment of the spread/line is exactly equal to the betting line, then all bets on this offer will be declared void and wagers refunded. For example, a bet on -3.0 points will be declared void if the chosen team wins the game by exactly 3 points difference (10-7 or 24-27, etc.). Any reference in this section to the term “margin” is intended to be understood as the outcome emerging from the subtraction of the points/runs/goals scored by the 2 teams/participants.
Unless otherwise stated, all spreads/lines/handicaps listed on the Site are to be calculated based on the result from the start of the listed game/quarter/period to the end of the specified game/quarter/period. It is customary that for certain spread/handicap bet offers in specific sports such as Asian Handicap in Soccer, 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 points/goals scored before the time the bet was placed and accepted. Any bet offer with these characteristics will be highlighted on the patron’s ticket or bet history on the Site with the score at the time of bet placement.
There are 3 different spread (or handicapping) formats:
2-way Spread: Team A (-7.5) vs. Team B (+7.5)
3-way Handicap (primarily betting on Soccer): Team A (-2), Draw (Exactly 2), Team B (+2)
Asian Handicap (primarily betting on Soccer): Team A (-1.75) vs. Team B (+1.75)
Alternative Lines/Spreads (also known as Teasers)
“Double Chance” is where it is possible to bet simultaneously on two (partial or definite) outcomes of a game or event, typically in a 3-way Moneyline bet (or “1X2” bet). The options are: 1X, 12 and X2 with “1”, “X” and “2” as defined in the General Betting Rules, Section B, Paragraph 2, Clause 3.
“Futures” or “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 the General Betting Rules, Section B, Paragraph 5, Clause 13.
“Each Way” or “EW” refers to a bet where the chosen selection must either Win or Place 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, Section C, as well as the General Betting Rules, Section B, Paragraph 5, Clause 14.
“Goal minutes” is where it is possible to bet on the sum of the minutes when the goals have been scored (primarily Soccer). When settling such bets, 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. Own goals will not count towards the settlement of individual player’s “goal minutes”.
“Proposition” or “Prop” bets are bets made regarding the occurrence or non-occurrence of an outcome during an event that is not directly affecting the event’s outcome. Examples include, but are not limited to, which outcomes occurred before or after other outcomes, which outcomes occurred at greater or lesser quantity, or whether an occurrence happened or not. Some specific examples of markets are listed in the following section.
“Head-to-Heads” or Fantasy “Matches” are implicit match-ups where the performances of two or more participants/teams which are not directly playing 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. The following criteria will be used to determine the settlement of these types of offerings:
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.
All related games/events must be completed on the same day/session which the game/event/round is scheduled to be completed for bets to stand, except for those offers 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.
Results for these offers will only consider occurrences deriving from the actual play. Results attributable to walk-overs, as well as other decisions as specified in Clauses 2, 3 and 4 of the General Betting Rules, Section B, Paragraph 5, will not be taken into consideration.
Should the criteria be inconclusive in determining the outcome for these offers, the following criteria will be progressively referenced to settle the offering:
The applicable Sport Specific Rules, Section C; and
Result Settlement rules as listed in the General Betting Rules, Section B, Paragraph 5.
Bets will be settled as void should it still be impossible to determine a winning outcome.
“Grand Salami” is where it is possible to bet on the total number of listed occurrences (e.g., Total Goals, Total Runs) happening in a collection of games/events on a specified round/day/match day. All related games/events must be completed for bets to stand 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.
Over/Under bets on classification of participants in performances/events must be interpreted as follows: “Over” means a worse or lower position while “Under” means a better or higher position. Example: A bet on a player’s classification in a tournament with an Over/Under line 2.5 will be settled as Under if the player classifies first or second. All other placements will be settled as Over.
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 game/event/match. Bets on this market will be declared void should the game be played in a format where it is impossible to determine an outcome for the timeframes specified in the offer.
Bets on “Result at end of Quarter / Half / Period X” refer to the result of the game/match/event after termination of the stipulated timeframe and will take into account all other points/goals/events tallied from previous parts of the game/event/match. Bets on this market will be declared void should the game be played in a format where it is impossible to determine an outcome for the timeframes specified in the offer.
Bets on “Race to X Points”, “Race to X Goals” and similar offers refer to the team/participant that is the first to reach the specified tally of points/goals/events. 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 game/event/match which are not related to the mentioned timeframe. Should the listed score not be reached within the stipulated timeframe (if any), all bets will be declared void, unless odds for such eventuality have been published within the market.
Bets on “Touchdown X Scorer”, “Winner of Point X” and similar offers refer to the team/participant scoring/winning the listed occurrence. For the settlement of these offers, no reference to events happening prior to the listed occurrence will be taken into consideration. Should the listed occurrence not be scored/won within the stipulated timeframe (if any), all bets will be declared void, unless odds for such eventuality have been published within the market.
Bets referring to the happening of a particular occurrence in a pre-defined time order, such as “Next Team to receive penalty minutes” or “First Card” will be settled as void should it not be possible, without any reasonable doubt, to decide the winning outcome, for example in case of players from different teams which are shown a card in the same interruption of play.
“To score first and win” refers to the listed team/participant being the first to register any scoring in the game and going on to win the game. Should there be no scoring in the game, all bets will be settled as void.
Any reference to “Clean Sheet” or “Shutout” indicates that the listed team/participant must not concede any goal/points during the game/relevant timeframe.
“To win from behind” refers to the listed team/participant winning the game after having been at least 1 point/run/goal behind their opponents at any point in the game/relevant timeframe.
Any reference for a team/participant to win all halves/periods (e.g., Team to win both halves) means that the listed team must score more points/goals than its opponent during all the stipulated halves/periods of the game.
Any reference to “Injury Time” refers to the amount displayed by the designated official and not to the actual amount played.
Settlement of bets on offers such as “Most Valuable Player”, “Man of the Match,” etc. will be based on the competition’s organizer’s decision, unless otherwise stated.
Settlement of bets which make reference to terms such as “go-ahead scorer” or “decisive goal” will be settled based on the scorer of the points/run/goal that at the end of the game/match/tie (as applicable) proves to be the one that has produced an unassailable lead, following which any further points/runs/goals would prove to be irrelevant towards the final outcome. For a bet to be settled as “YES”, the listed player’s team must be declared winner of that particular game/match (in case of one game) or progressing to the next round/winning the competition. Points/runs/goals scored in Regular Time and overtime or extra time count (but not Penalty Shoot-outs in Soccer).
Bets on events which feature a selection of episodes that could happen in a game/match (e.g., “What will happen first to the player?” with options Score a goal, get a Yellow/Red Card, Be Substituted) will be settled as void should none of the listed events/outcomes occur, unless odds for such eventuality have been published within the market.
Settlement of Transfer bets will also take into account players signed by the club on loan deals.
Bets referring to Managerial changes refer to the individual in the Head Coach/Manager role (as applicable) who steps down/is removed from the position for any reason. Bets are valid even in cases where a joint responsible (if any) leaves their position and will be settled accordingly. In case that no more changes are happening between the time the bet is placed and the last league event (excluding Playoffs, Playouts, Postseason, etc.), the bets placed after the last Managerial change (if any) will be void, unless a suitable option has been offered for betting. Soccer markets will consider and settle accordingly, any interim/caretaker Head Coach/Manager who since the last Managerial change has led the team for 10 consecutive games.
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 event changes and number of games/rounds played.
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 on Gameday X) will be based upon the timeframe in the respective game/match in which the feat has been accomplished. For example, Team A plays on Thursday and score their first touchdown in the 13th minute of play while Team B plays on Sunday and score their first touchdown after 5 minutes of play, then Team B will be settled as winner.
From time-to-time Potawatomi Sportsbook, at its sole discretion and without prejudice to related contingencies as described in the Conditions of Agreement, Section A, Paragraph 5, Clause 8, may publish a bet offer which refers to either the single performance of a participant/team or offerings which combine the potential outcomes of 2 or more teams/participants (e.g., Enhanced Multiples, Boosted Odds, etc.), at higher odds than those normally available. Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right to remove such offers, edit the respective odds and implement any further changes Potawatomi Sportsbook might deem necessary at its sole discretion.
Settlement of these bet offers will be based on the following criteria in the listed order:
Unless specifically stated, the offer refers only to the listed day(s) and/or next official game/match/event/round (as applicable) in which the listed participants/teams are scheduled to take part at the time the offer is published;
Results settled as per respective Sport Specific Rules, Section C. 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 thereof) of the other events listed in the offer would not influence the outcome of the offer. Such markets will be settled according to the already determined outcomes;
Unless explicitly stated within the offer, result settlement will only take into account occurrences deriving from the actual play. Results attributable to walk-overs, protests, changes to the first official result, etc. will not be taken into consideration. Stakes will be refunded should it be impossible to determine a winning outcome in accordance with the respective Sport Specific Rules, Section C;
All connotations related to the offer must be fully and unquestionably complied with for the bet to be deemed as winning, regardless of any possible conflict with the Sport Specific Rules, Section C, or with any potential interpretation based on previous or current presentation of offers related to events in that particular sport and the way these are normally presented in Potawatomi Sportsbook. Where applicable, should the offer include any outcome the result of which ties exactly the chosen Total (Over/Under) or Spread (aka Push), this will not be considered as having accomplished the listed occurrence and will result in the bet being settled as Lost.
Although Potawatomi Sportsbook takes reasonable precautions to ensure a superior user experience, the 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 the Site. All bets remain valid regardless of these eventual fluctuations.
During selected events, Potawatomi 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 (“Prebuilt Parlay”) present on the Site (excluding Enhanced Multiples, Boosted Odds, etc. for which the General Betting Rules, Section B, Paragraph 3, Clause 21, apply) or through the BetBuilder functionality. Such functionality is only present at Potawatomi Sportsbook’s sole discretion and without prejudice to related contingencies as described in the Conditions of Agreement, Section A, Paragraph 5, Clause 8. All selections within an intra-event combination (Same Game Parlay (SGP)) will be settled according to the respective Sport Specific Rules. Should any selection be settled as VOID, all selections within that intra-event combination will be settled as VOID. Where applicable, should the combination feature any outcome the result of which ties exactly the chosen Totals (Over/Under) or Spread (aka Push), such part 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.
“Teaser+” allows 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/Under) or a combination of both. Example: User combines NFL Team X +6.5 points in a parlay with Over 41 points in the NFL game 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.
Bets referring to “Rest of the game” 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.
Bets on specific timeframes/intervals (e.g., game result between 60:00-89:59) 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 game/event/match outside the specified timeframe/interval, including stoppage/injury time, unless specified.
In pre-game and live betting, it may be possible to combine up to sixteen (16) different offers on a single ticket. Based on these sixteen offers, patrons can choose their own number of singles, doubles, trebles, etc.
All selected games/offers in a parlay must be included in the ticket and no other multiple options which exclude 1 or more games/matches/offers are available. Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right to limit the number of combinations due to what is known as outcome related contingencies, as defined in the Conditions of Agreement, Section A, Paragraph 5, Clause 4, and other factors, solely at its own discretion.
It is possible to include one or several games as “bankers” which means that the selected games/events will be included in all parlay tickets.
Same Game Parlays (SGP) are two or more bet offers from the same event that are combined into a single grouping. On betting tickets and in bet slips, SGPs are identifiable by a single combined price for two or more bet offers. SGPs can be built and placed as a wager by themselves or be combined with other events and/or other SGPs.
A “Trixie” is a combination, which includes one 3-way parlay (treble) and three 2-way parlays (doubles) from a selection of three games.
A “Patent” is a combination, which includes one 3-way parlay (treble), three 2-way parlays (doubles) and three singles from a selection of three games.
A “Yankee” is a combination, which includes one 4-way parlay (fourfold), four 3-way parlays (trebles) and six 2-way parlays (doubles) from a selection of four games.
A “Canadian” (also known as “Super Yankee”) is a combination, which includes one 5-way parlay (fivefold), five 4-way parlays (fourfolds), ten 3-way parlays (trebles) and ten 2-way parlays (doubles) from a selection of five games.
A “Heinz” is a combination, which includes one 6-way parlay (sixfold), six 5-way parlays (fivefolds), fifteen 4-way parlays (fourfolds), twenty 3-way parlays (trebles) and fifteen 2-way parlays (doubles) from a selection of six games.
A “Super Heinz” is a combination, which includes one 7-way parlay (sevenfold), seven 6-way parlays (sixfold), twenty-one 5-way parlays (fivefolds), thirty-five 4-way parlays (fourfolds), thirty-five 3-way parlays (trebles) and twenty-one 2-way parlays (doubles) from a selection of seven games.
A “Goliath” is a combination, which includes one 8-way parlay (eightfold), eight 7-way parlays (sevenfold), twenty-eight 6-way parlays (sixfold), fifty-six 5-way parlays (fivefolds), seventy 4-way parlays (fourfolds), fifty-six 3-way parlays (trebles) and twenty-eight 2-way parlays (doubles) from a selection of eight games.
For display purposes, when necessary, the second digit after the decimal point of the odds is shown as rounded up in the patron’s ticket or bet history to the nearest decimal number. The payout will, however, be affected based on the actual odds multiplied by the stake, disregarding the aforementioned rounding.
When settling results, Potawatomi Sportsbook takes reasonable steps to use information obtained firsthand (during or exactly after the event has been concluded), through TV transmissions, streaming (web-based and through other sources), and official sites. Should the required information be omitted from firsthand viewing and/or official sources, or if there is an obvious Error in the information included in the sources above, the settlement of the bet offer will be based on other public sources.
Unless a clear and verifiable Error is noted in the first official result, settlement of bets will not include any changes deriving from and/or attributable to, 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.
Settlement of markets held over more than 1 round/stage (e.g., Season Bets) will only consider amendments affecting bets which settlement has not been decided yet. Such measures must be announced by the governing body before the last scheduled round/stage will be considered. Any changes affected after this date or referring to bets which have already been settled based on events happening during the event/competition, will not be considered.
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 that result in Potawatomi Sportsbook offering odds/lines/totals which are incongruent with the revised playing format will result in the voiding of the bets affected by the format change.
Offers where the format change does not preclude the governing body from declaring a winner (e.g., Season winner), regardless of whether there will be a continuation of play or not, revised length of season/competition, etc., will be settled according to the result issued by the governing body provided the result is issued as per the timeframes listed below and is congruent to the odds/lines/totals available at time of offer publishing.
The following settlement provisions apply in such cases:
Should the governing body declare a relevant outcome within 3 months from the last game played before the interruption (be it final classification, cancellation or intentions to resume play), markets will be determined accordingly;
In case no applicable official communication/result is issued within 3 months from the last game played before the interruption, markets will be settled in accordance with the last classification/rankings available, regardless of number of games played/current stage/phase of the competition;
Markets which refer to whether a team/participant will reach a subsequent phase of the competition (e.g., Playoffs) will be settled as void should there be any changes to the format/number of participants scheduled to contest that particular phase or that particular phase is not played at all, unless an outcome based on the market connotations at time of bet publishing has already been determined and the change in number of applicable games bears no influence on the outcome of the offer;
Markets which odds are dependent/based on a full schedule of games being played (e.g., Over/Under Wins in the Regular Season/Points in the League) will be declared void should the number of games 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 games bears no influence on the outcome of the offer.
Occurrences which have not been sanctioned and/or acknowledged by the game/match/event officials (e.g., overturned touchdowns) will not be taken into account towards the settlement of the bet. Unless otherwise stated in the bet offer, occurrences will be settled based on the time the related action is taken, not on the time when the occurrence was awarded. Occurrences are only considered valid for settlement 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). Should the occurrence be only awarded and not taken, it will not be considered for settlement purposes.
All bet offers related to games/matches/events which do not take place at all or are awarded a result through a walk-over decision will be declared void.
In case of an abandoned event, 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 its start time, all pending offers related to the event will be settled as void.
In case an event is abandoned and is scheduled to restart from the beginning, all bets placed before the initial game 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 game is continued. Bets on events that are cancelled, postponed or rescheduled more than 12 hours beyond their official start time will be void, unless otherwise specified in sport-specific rules or the specific bet offer. However, bets will remain valid under the following exceptions:
The event did not have an official start time confirmed by the relevant governing body at the time of bet placement.
The event is rescheduled for logistical or broadcast reasons but remains within the same competition round, and the sequence of official events for all participants remains unchanged.
The start time is advanced, but the event still occurs within the same round, and the order of official events is preserved. Past-posting and similar cancellation occurrences as defined in <Section A, Para 5.4> still apply.
An event is no longer deemed part of the same gameday/round if, due to rescheduling, it is no longer the next scheduled official event for all participating teams. In such cases, affected bets will be VOID.
This rule does not apply to season or outright bets, which remain valid provided the competition is held and completed in the relevant season/year as displayed within the offer, regardless of scheduling changes.
For playoff or multi-leg series, individual game rescheduling does not affect bet validity provided the order of home/away games is maintained and the game occurs within the series framework. Otherwise, bets are VOID.
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, Potawatomi Sportsbook will use the issued decision as the official result for the following bet offers: Moneyline, Tie No Bet and Double Chance. Notwithstanding that, the issued decision does not change the outcome of the 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 (e.g., Total Points, Spreads, 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.
All bet offers related to uncompleted games/matches/events where the official governing body is not previously acknowledged will be declared as void unless at least 90% of the stipulated Regular/Full Time (see the General Betting Rules, Section B, Paragraph 1, Clause 1) is played. Should the game/match/event be abandoned after 90% has been completed, the settlement will be based on the current score at the time when the game/match/event was stopped.
Unless stated alongside the wagering market, settlement of bet offers, such as, but not limited to, stolen bases, errors, sacks, shots, shots on target, ball possession, assists, rebounds, etc., will be based according to the definition with which the official governing body issues the statistics. Potawatomi Sportsbook will not consider inconsistent personal interpretation of such terms.
Wagers placed on participants/teams who do not take part in an event will be declared void. 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.
No refunds of bets will apply, even if the winning outcome of a game/match/event is a participant/outcome that has not been listed for betting purposes. On all bet offers, the patron has the ability to ask for a price on a non-listed participant/outcome. Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right, at its own discretion, to decline such requests.
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. No changes will be made to previous results, regardless of any modifications due to actions. Bets placed after the disqualified participant last took part in the event will be declared void.
If two or more Participants share the applicable finishing positions and no odds have been offered for a drawn outcome, the payout will be calculated using “Dead Heat” rules. The payout is calculated using the following equation:
Payout = Stake x (Odds ÷ Number of Participants Sharing the Certain Positions)
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>.
Examples of Dead Heat rules settlements include, but are not limited to, the following instances. All calculations use decimal odds.
Example 1
You bet $20 on a participant to finish in the Top 20 at odds 2.0. The participant finishes tied 16th with 5 other players. Payout would be calculated as follows:
Payout of $33.40
Example 2
You bet $10 on a participant to finish in the Top 10 at odds 3.0. The participant finishes tied 10th with 3 other players. Payout would be calculated as follows:
Payout of $10
Note here the payout computed is less than the original stake. As the rule states, payouts will always equal the stake except in cases of Head-to-Heads. In this example, the bet was not a Head-to-Head, and thus payout equals the stake of $10.
Example 3
You bet $10 on a participant to win his 3-ball at odds 2.40. The participant finishes tied for best score with 1 other player. Payout would be calculated as follows:
Payout of $12
Example 4
You bet $10 on a participant to win his 3-ball at odds 1.50. The participant finishes tied for best score with 1 other player. Payout would be calculated as follows:
Payout of $7.50
Note here the payout is less than the stake. As the rule states, payouts will always equal the stake except in cases of Head-to-Heads. In this example, the bet was a Head-to-Head and thus payout can be less than the stake.
In “Group Betting” (aka “Best of X”), all listed participants must start the event for bets to stand.
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 tiebreaking criteria, the bets will be declared void.
In a “Head-to-Head” between two or three participants, all listed participants must start the particular round/event to which the bet refers for bets to be considered valid.
In a “Head-to-Head” 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 tiebreaking procedures, in which case these bets will be deemed valid.
If a “Head-to-Head” 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.
Unless specifically stated, whenever the governing body deems it fit to include any necessary rounds, games, matches, or series of games/matches (e.g., Playoffs, Playouts, Postseason) following the end of the Regular Season in order to determine the classification, league winners, promotion/relegation, etc., Potawatomi Sportsbook will take into account the results and outcomes deriving from these games for settlement purposes of bets referring to the final league classification, promotion, relegation, etc. For example, seasonal bets on the team winning the NHL will refer to the Stanley Cup Winners.
Offers which confront against each other the performances of two or more 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.
Unless specifically stated, all offers referring to a single player’s performance in a specific domestic league (e.g., Total Points 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 Playoffs/Playouts/Postseason or any other games, or series of games, which would happen after the Regular Season. For the avoidance of doubt, Canadian teams, as pertains to NHL, NBA, MLB and MLS, are considered domestic.
Offers related to a total amount of occurrences/events scored/tallied by a particular team, either in a single team performance in a specific league (e.g., Total Runs Scored by Team X), “Head-to-Head” bet offers involving two teams’ performances in leagues (e.g., Most Penalty Minutes in UK Premier League – Team Y vs. Team Z), or a cumulative league performance (e.g., Team to receive Most Penalties in NHL), will not take into account those events happening during eventual Playoffs/Playouts/Postseason or any other games, or series of games, which would happen after the Regular Season, unless otherwise specified.
In a single player performance bet offer in a specific league (e.g., Total Runs Scored by Player X in MLB) or “Head-to-Head” bet offers involving two players’ performances in leagues, unless an outcome has already been achieved, stakes will be refunded should any of the following occurrences happen to any relevant participant:
The participant is not part of the gameday lineup or squad for the team/club they are eligible for at time of bet placement in 50% or more of the remaining applicable games for any reason;
The participant does not take part in at least another game after the bet has been placed; or
The participant totals the same amount as the other player, unless a tie/draw option has been offered.
Other sport-specific conditions may apply. Please refer to the Sport Specific Rules, Section C.
In a single player performance bet offer in a specific event (e.g., Total Runs by Player X in Game 1 of World Series) 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:
The participant does not take part at all in the event;
The participant totals the same amount as the other participant, unless a draw/tie option has been offered.
During specific events Potawatomi 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.
Offers that make specific reference to a participant’s/participants’ performance(s) 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.
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.
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 game dates, assuming the game(s) actually takes place within the frame of the competition.
A bet on a “To Qualify” market originally requiring just one stage/leg to advance to a subsequent phase/round of a competition (including any eventual prolongations/additional games, e.g., replays) will be declared void if a game is not decided within more than 12 hours of its supposed start time.
Bets remain valid if the venue or surface changes, unless the sport’s specific rules state otherwise or the event is moved to the regular home venue of one of the teams involved. As a general principle, the designation of “Home” (host) and “Away” (visitor) is determined by the governing body’s official game list, not by the order teams appear on the betting interface.
Furthermore, bets on games at neutral venues remain valid regardless of how the teams are positioned in the betting display or whether neutrality is explicitly stated. Home/Away designations will not affect bets in sports or events where venue doesn’t provide any material advantage, such as, but not limited to, Tennis, UFC events or MMA fights.
Similarly, events held at pre-determined venues such as the NCAA Final Four or the Super Bowl are considered neutral even if one participant/team is playing at a location or venue deemed as a potential “Home” venue, such as, but not limited to, the Super Bowl being held in LA with the LA Rams being one of the participants.
Information referring to gender of the teams, age groups and youth teams, as well as various definitions of reserve teams (e.g., 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 game/match/event, provided this does not cause an obvious inconsistency in odds offered.
Although Potawatomi Sportsbook takes reasonable precautions to assure an accurate rendition of all components involved in a bet offer, 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 game/match/event, to the extent that it does not create confusion with other participants or cause an obvious inconsistency in odds offered. The same applies for denominations referring to events, team names, sponsor names, etc.
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, etc.
Unless listed either in conjunction with the bet offer or in the Sport Specific Rules, Section C, bets referring to game/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 in a Tennis match will be settled as Over only if at least 89 full minutes are completed.
Potawatomi Sportsbook acknowledges 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, Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right to adjust and settle accordingly.
Any reference to goals scored by specific players will not count if they are defined as “own goals” (scored in their own goals) unless otherwise stated.
Any reference to confederation, nationality or similar will be subject to the definition by the governing body.
Any medals won by a team/nation per competition will count as one (1) single medal regardless of the number of team members (e.g., Olympic gymnastics team all-around gold medal).
Offers referring to individual player performances over a particular period/tournament (example: Total Goals Scored by Player X during the World Cup) or confronting 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.
Offers on whether certain individuals will be occupying a specified position/title/job on a certain date (e.g., Player or Coach to still be with Team Y on Date Z) refer to the individual in question to hold (or alternatively to be appointed in) the listed position uninterruptedly between the time the bet is placed and the specified deadline. Should the individual for any reason whatsoever leave the position before the specified deadline, the outcome of the bet will be considered as not having happened, even in cases where the individual is re-appointed/signed again in that same position/title/job and even if on the specified deadline the individual is occupying once more that same position/title/job to which the bet refers. Settlements will also take into account players signed on loan deals.
Any bets referring to “breaking” of records require the listed occurrence to be fully accomplished. Equaling the record will not be considered as having fully accomplished the feat. Only the listed occurrence will count for settlement purposes.
Unless stated otherwise, all bets on Football are determined on the basis of the result after any overtime or extra time. All bet offers will only be considered valid should there be less than 5 minutes of scheduled play left in the 4th Quarter/2nd Half, as applicable. Exceptions will be made for those outcomes which have been decided prior to early abandonment and could not possibly be changed regardless of future events, which will be settled according to the decided outcome. In NCAA games, should the playing time of any quarter(s) be shortened by mutual agreement of the opposing head coaches and referee, this will not serve as grounds to void any bets. All bet offers will be settled as normal based off of the official result at the end of the game.
Offers referring to individual player performance in a single game (e.g., Total Passing Yards Thrown by Player X) or relative performance of 2 individual players during the course of a game (e.g., Will Player X or Player Y throw most Passing Yards) require all listed individuals to participate in at least one more play in the applicable game, after bet acceptance, for the bet(s) to stand.
Unless specifically stated or implied in the offer, settlement of Season long (or “future”) bets will be based on the classifications, definitions and tiebreaking rules as per NFL.com or the official website of the competition (as applicable).
Unless otherwise specified, a typical week/round schedule is considered starting on a Thursday through the following Wednesday, as per local stadium time. Any events/offers not completed within the designated or specified time period will be settled as void, except for those offers in which the outcomes have already been decided and could not possibly be changed regardless of future events, which will be settled according to the decided outcome. Bets referring to events which have been rescheduled within the same week/round will remain valid so long as such events are played within the Thursday to Wednesday time period described above.
Gameday/Weekly props are offers on the performance or outcome of a group of teams or individual player performance for games/events over a specified time period (week/round/day/game) (e.g., Week 3 – Total Points Scored in the AFC, Week 7 – Highest Scoring Team in the NFL, Week 9 – the Player with the most passing yards, etc.). All applicable games/matches/events (including any rescheduled games that are played within the same game week) must be completed and validated for the specified week/gameday/round for bets to stand except for those the outcomes which have been decided prior to the abandonment or change in schedule, and could not possibly be changed regardless of future events, which will be settled according to the decided outcome. In addition, offers referring to the performance of specified players require that all the specified players participate in at least one more play in the applicable game, after bet acceptance, for bets to stand.

Any bets placed after any news which could potentially reduce the number of markets a listed player is eligible to participate within the competition (e.g., injury/transfer/trade news), and theoretically alter the odds in favor of any particular outcome without the odds having been adjusted to reflect the current state of the bet, will be declared void.
Bets on Double Result (e.g., “Half Time/Full Time” which predict the outcome at Half Time combined with the result at the end of the 4th Quarter) will not take into account any outcomes in overtime (if applicable).
First/Next Offensive Play markets are settled based on the first/next offensive play from scrimmage (as applicable), excluding penalties. For settlement purposes, incomplete/intercepted passes will be considered a “Pass Play”. Fumbles on exchanges to a running back will be considered a “Run Play”. For NFL, Quarterback sacks or fumbles will be considered as “Pass Play” unless the Quarterback has passed the line of scrimmage, at which point it would be considered as “Run Play”. For NCAAF, Quarterback sacks or fumbles will be considered as “Run Play” in all situations.
Settlement on offers referring to “Offensive Yards” will be based on the net number of yards including any sack yardage lost. For the avoidance of doubt, the calculation is completed by adding the relevant passing and receiving yards and subtracting the number of yards lost to sacks from the total.
Offers referring to any team scoring a specified successive number of times unanswered will consider scorings tallied during eventual overtime but excludes any PATs (points after Touchdowns or 2-point conversions).
“Team to call first/next Timeout” offers will not take into consideration any timeouts lost through any other means such as failed challenges, coaches challenges and/or injuries for settlement purposes.
Settlement on all penalty offers will be based on the penalty being accepted. Declined penalties do not count.
Bets referring to the outcome of a particular drive will be settled as void in case of an incomplete drive. In cases where Team A has the ball and fumbles with the ball being recovered by Team B who successively fumbles it back to Team A, the outcome will be settled as a “Turnover”. Turnover on Downs (failed 4th Down attempt) will also be considered as a “Turnover”. Should a punt be fumbled by the receiving team and subsequently recovered by the kicking team, bets will be settled as a “Punt”.
Offers on “if a 1st Down will be made” refer only to the team currently in possession and achieving such accomplishment. Market will be settled as “YES” should a new set of “Downs” be achieved either by Run, Pass (including cases where a Touchdown is scored as a result) or an Automatic 1st Down Penalty. “Safety”, “Field Goal” (regardless of whether the Field Goal being scored or not), fumbles or any change in possession will settle the offer as “NO”. Any Down replayed due to non-automatic penalties will not be considered for settlement purposes unless committed with 5 yards or less to go.
Settlement on which team will gain most Passing/Rushing yards will be based on the gross number of yards thrown/run, including any negative yardage for rushing.
For settlement purposes, bets on Touchdown scorers require the listed player to be part of the active roster for that game. Stakes on players which are not on the active roster will be refunded. In cases of “passing Touchdowns” only the player who catches the pass will be considered as the Touchdown scorer.
Player props and other stats-based offers will be settled according to the official game reports as published after the game by the governing body.
Unless otherwise specified in conjunction with the bet offer, bets on outcomes related to 2nd Half will only take into consideration points and occurrences tallied/obtained during the regular game period and will not consider any points and occurrences tallied/obtained during overtime.
Offers referring to tackles made will be settled according to tackles made on regular defensive plays only. This will be determined by the final defensive statistics in the official gamebook.
“Drive Crosses X Yardline” markets will be settled according to the spot of the ball at the end of the drive. If the drive ends in a Field Foal, the final yardline is the line of scrimmage of the field goal attempt. If the drive ends in a Fumble, the final yardline is the yardline where the fumble occurred. If the drive ends in an Interception, the final yardline is the line of scrimmage of the play during which the interception occurs.
Unless otherwise stated, bets on Baseball are determined on the basis of the result after any eventual extra innings, and regardless of the number of innings played, as declared by the respective organizing body.

In the case of a shortened or abandoned game, “Moneyline” bets will be settled as per the rules of the respective governing body. “Run Line”, “Over/Under”, “Odd/Even” and all other markets, including player performance markets, but except Moneyline, require all scheduled innings to be completed, or at least 8.5 innings to be completed if the home team is in advantage, for bets to stand. This applies to all bet offers except those the outcome of which has been decided prior to the abandonment and could not possibly be changed regardless of future events. These will be settled according to the decided outcome. For NCAA, exceptions will be made for games that are shortened by mutual agreement of the opposing head coaches and umpire or any “Mercy Rules” which come into play as stipulated by the relevant governing body.
In case “Mercy Rules” are invoked, specified offers will be settled as follows:
With the exception of those offers where the start/participation of the listed pitcher(s) is specifically required for the market to be deemed valid (e.g., Listed Pitcher Moneyline), whoever is chosen to be the starting pitcher of either team has no relevance on how offers are settled.
For settlement purposes, “First Half” bets refer to the outcome of the first 5 innings. All 5 innings must be completed for the bets to stand, except for those offers in which the outcome has been decided prior to abandonment and could not possibly be changed regardless of future events, which will be settled according to the decided outcome. For games played under a scheduled, shortened format, the first half innings will be shortened accordingly.

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 DP World Tour sanctioned events and 54 holes for PGA Tour sanctioned events), have been completed by the eligible players, and an official result has been declared by the sanctioning body.

Any reference to 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 whether the player has qualified or not following the first “Cut” made.
Disqualification/withdrawals by a player before the “Cut” is made will result in the player being considered as having missed the “Cut”. Disqualification/withdrawals subsequent to the “Cut” being made will be irrelevant towards the original settlement of the “Make the Cut” offers.
In “Head-to-Heads” 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 as the winner. Should both players fail to make the “Cut” with the same score 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”.

Any team winning during Overtime/Shootouts will only be credited as having scored one goal, regardless of the number of goals scored during the eventual prolongations.
Offers referring to individual player performances in a single game (e.g., Total Goals Scored by Player X) or relative performance of 2 individual players during the course of a game (e.g., Will Player X or Player Y score the most Goals) require all listed individuals to be an active participant (spends time on the Ice, if not mentioned by the appropriate body, we will settle based on being in the lineup) in the applicable game for bets to stand. Similar type of bets placed after the relevant game has started will be settled as void should the listed player(s) not be included in the lineup for whatever reason after bet acceptance.
Settlement of player related and team markets (such as Goals, Assists, Points, Penalty Minutes, Shots on Goal, etc.) will be settled based on official statistics by the governing body. Unless otherwise stated, settlement of such bets will include eventual prolongations (e.g., overtime) but not Penalty Shoot Outs.
First/Last Goalscorer – The bet refers to a specific player being the scorer of the listed goal within the applicable timeframe, or else being the first scorer for their team (e.g., “First Goalscorer – Team X”). Bets will be voided on players who do not take part in the game or else come on the ice after the listed goal to which the bet refers to has been scored. In case no goals (or no further goals, as applicable) is/are scored and fulfil the remaining bet offer parameters, all bets will be considered lost, unless an applicable option has been listed within the offer.
All NHL and NCAA offers will only be considered valid should there be less than 5 minutes of scheduled play left in the 3rd Period. Exceptions will be made for those the outcome 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.
Unless specifically stated or implied in the offer characteristics, settlement of Season long (future) bets will be based as per the classifications, definitions and tiebreaking rules as per NHL.com, or the official website of the competition (as applicable).
Season bets, regardless of whether these include outcomes obtained during Playoffs or otherwise, as well as offers referring to particular teams or player performances will remain valid regardless of eventual player trades, team movements or name changes during any point in the season.
Offers referring to individual player performance (e.g., Total Goals Scored by Player X during the Playoffs) or relative performance of 2 individual players over a particular game/period/tournament/season (e.g., Will Player X or Player Y score the most points during the Regular Season) require that all listed individuals must be an active participant in at least one more game applicable for the offer for bets to stand. If no data is available for a given player’s time on ice, that player is deemed to have been active in the game if the player is included in the official game roster/report.
Unless clearly specified that the fights are unconfirmed, bets are only valid should the fight take place on the card/date it was announced for regardless 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 the match ends up taking place as originally announced.
With the exception of the instances as detailed in the Sport Specific Rules, Section C, Paragraph 6.4, 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 provided the fight takes place on the card it was announced for.
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”, “Winning Group of Rounds”, “Alternate Winning Round”, “Alternate Winning Group of Rounds”, “Over/Under” offers, “Winning Method” and “To go the distance” will be declared void.
For settlement purposes, in case the fight is interrupted for any reason in between rounds, e.g., retirement before the start of a round, disqualification, or failure to answer the bell, the fight will be deemed to have finished at the end of the previous round.
Offers on fights declared as a “No Contest” will be settled as void, except for those offers the outcome of which has been decided prior to the decision and could not possibly be changed or in cases where such outcome was offered for betting purposes.
A fight will only be considered as having gone “the distance” only if a points/judges’ decision is awarded after the full duration of all scheduled rounds has been completed. If a judges or referees’ decision is awarded before the full number of scheduled rounds are completed (Technical Decision), offers such as “Alternate Round Betting”, “Alternate Group of Rounds”, “Over/Under”, and “To go the distance” will be declared void, unless the outcome is already determined. For settlement purposes, betting on rounds or groups of rounds is for a fighter to win by KO, TKO, disqualification or submission during that round/group of rounds. In the event of a Technical Decision before the end of the fight, all bets will be settled as a “Win by Decision”.
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. 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.
Bets referring to round/fight duration represents the actual time passed in the round/fight, as applicable, depending on the scheduled round/fight duration. For example, a bet on Over 4.5 Total Rounds will be settled as Over once two minutes and 30 seconds in the 5th Round has passed.
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 based according to the definition with which the official governing body issues the statistics. In cases where both fighters are declared as having accomplished the same result, with that outcome not having been available as a possible outcome for betting purposes, bets will be voided.
Markets which confront or tally different fights from 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 yet the number of fights on the card or the applicable specific section of it remain the same (e.g., re-booking, replacement fighter or undercard/preliminary matches being pushed to the main card). Should for whatever reason the listed number of fights not take place during the card or the specific section of it to which the bet refers, bets will be settled as void.
This section is valid for all sports related to Motor Racing, such as: Formula One, A1 GP, CART, Indy Car, NASCAR, Circuit Racing, Touring Cars, DTM, Endurance, Rally, Rally-cross, Motorcycling, Superbike.
With the exception of NASCAR, bets are settled according to the publication of live timing and classification as shown on TV at the time of podium presentations, or at the end of the session/race/event (as applicable). Should the information required for the settling of the offer be missing/not shown and/or incomplete, the first official information on the official site will be deemed binding, regardless of subsequent promotions, demotions, appeals and/or penalties inflicted after the termination of the session/race to which the bet refers.
For bets on NASCAR, all markets will be settled based on the unofficial results first released by NASCAR. Any subsequent penalties, disqualifications or appeals after and including the official post-race inspection will not affect settlement.
Events shortened due to weather conditions or other situations, but deemed official by the governing body, will be settled accordingly, regardless of any changes which the associations might make due to the incompletion of the race.
Should an event/race/session/lap/heat be restarted from the beginning, bets will stand and will be settled according to the result issued after the restart, except for those bets the outcome of which has already been determined.
For settlement purposes, bets will be settled as per events related to the specified session within the bet offer, including, but not limited to, “Practice”, “Qualifying”, “Sprint Shootout”, “Sprint” and “Race”.
In “Head-to-Head” bets all listed participants must take part in the session to which the bet refers for bets to stand, regardless of whether a driver manages to get an official time. An exception will be made for “Head-to-Head” bets placed on Practice events in which neither listed participant records an official laptime, in which case, affected bets will be voided.
Settlement for any offer with reference to “Race completion” will be based on official regulations as issued by the governing body.
A “Head-to-Head” bet where both drivers/riders fail to complete the race is determined on the basis of the most laps completed (except in cases of Rally, where at least one of the listed participants must complete the event, otherwise the bets will be declared void). For a race determined on the basis of most laps completed, if both participants are recorded for the same number of laps, the bet is declared void.
Time penalties inflicted by the governing body during the qualifying session(s) will count. Other grid demotions/promotions are disregarded.
Should a listed driver be deemed as DNS (Did Not Start) in official published rankings for the session, bets on the listed driver will be Void.
Settlement of seasonal markets will take into account the classification issued exactly after the completion of the last race of the season including any decisions taken by the governing body during the season, provided the decision is issued before the last race of the season. Any decision (even on appeal) taken after the end of the last stipulated race is deemed as irrelevant.
All bets which make reference to teams’ performances will stand regardless of any driver/rider changes.
For NASCAR and IndyCar, bets will stand regardless of any schedule/location/circuit changes provided the race/event is held within the same year/season, regardless of any time delays, calendar order, etc., except for those bets placed after 00:00 CET of the Monday two weeks prior for which the race/event is scheduled, which will be refunded should the race/event/session to which the offer refers not be held within 7 days of the scheduled date at the time the bet was placed.
Bets referring to specific teams’ performance during the race require the initially stipulated number of vehicles from each team to start the race for bets to stand, otherwise they will be declared void (e.g., in Formula 1, two cars from each team should start the race).
Settlement of bets referring to the inclusion of the “Safety Car” will not take into account those occurrences in which the actual race starts behind the “Safety Car”.
Settlement of offers on the first driver/car to retire will be based on the actual lap in which the driver is considered to have withdrawn from the race. Thus, if two or more drivers retire during the same lap bets will be settled in accordance with the General Betting Rules, Section B, Paragraph 5, Clause 14.
Bets on the First/Next Driver to retire during the race will include only the outcomes deriving after the official start of the race. Any retirements/withdrawals previous to the actual start of the GP (including those during the warm-up lap) will not be considered for settlement purposes.
For NASCAR qualifying, the winner will be settled based on the qualifying session alone. Any subsequent penalties (e.g., cars to the rear) or alternate methods of determining the starting line-up will not apply to this market. If the session is cancelled due to weather or any other reason, all bets will be voided. A driver is deemed to have participated in qualifying if a penalty is applied prior to qualifying which prevents actual participation in the session.
All bets are valid provided that the event is held and decided during the championship and the year it refers to, regardless of any venue changes.
This clause is applicable to offers which reasonably fulfil any of the following criteria:
The bet refers to events scheduled for the final phase of events forming part of Olympic, World and Continental competitions;
The final phase of the event is time restricted.
First/Next Goalscorer – The bet refers to a specific player being the scorer of the listed goal within the applicable timeframe or being the first scorer for his team (e.g., “First Goalscorer – Team X”). Bets will be void 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 has been scored. Own goals do not count for the settlement of this offer. Should the goal to which the bet refers be deemed as an own goal, the next player to score a goal which is not an own goal and which conforms with the bet offer parameters will be deemed as the winning outcome. In case no goals (or no further goals, as applicable) is/are scored which are not own goals and which fulfil the remaining bet offer parameters, all bets will be considered lost, unless an applicable option has been listed within the offer.
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 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, regardless 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 be deemed as an own goal, the previous player to score a goal which is not an own goal and which conforms with the bet offer parameters will be deemed as the winning outcome. In case no goals (or no previous goals, as applicable) is/are scored which are not own goals and which fulfil the remaining bet offer parameters, all bets will be considered lost.
“Scorecast” and “Matchcast” are bet offers where it is possible to bet simultaneously on a particular occurrence (e.g., First Goalscorer) combined with another from the same or related event (e.g., Correct Score in the match or match outcome). Should the bet refer to First or Last Goal Scorer, terms and conditions as stated in Sport Specific Rules, Section C, Paragraphs 25.1 and 25.2 will apply, where applicable. Bets will be voided on players who do not take part in the match at all. In all other instances bets will remain valid, regardless of the time of inclusion/substitution of the player. Own goals do not count for the settlement of this offer.
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. Similar types 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 whatever reason after bet acceptance. Own goals will never count as a goal scored for any selected player.
On all bets related to yellow/red cards, booking points, etc. only cards shown to players which 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.
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. 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 whatever reason after bet acceptance.
Offers referring to individual player performance in a single match (e.g., Total Goals Scored by Player X) or relative performance of 2 individual players during the course of a match (e.g., Will Player X or Player Y score the most Goals) require all listed individuals to play from the start of the match for bets to stand.
Offers referring to individual player performances (e.g., Total Goals Scored by Player X during the World Cup) or relative performance of 2 individual players over a particular period/tournament/season (e.g., Will Player X or Player Y score the most goals during the league) require that all listed individuals must be an active participant in at least one more event applicable for the bets to stand. Bets placed after any news which can potentially reduce the number of markets any listed player is eligible for within the competition (e.g., injury/transfer/trade news), and theoretically alter the odds in favor of any particular outcome without the odds having been adjusted to reflect the current state of the bet, will be declared void.
All bets referring to aggregated Tournament Totals (such as Goals, Corners, Cards, Penalties, etc.) will be settled based on official statistics by the governing body. Unless otherwise stated, cumulative amounts of such bets will include eventual prolongations (e.g., Extra Time) but not Penalty Shoot-outs.
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 apparent equivalent of the respective FA Cup and League Cup as well as the Champions League, Europa League or Copa Libertadores. Other trophies (e.g., domestic and European Super Cup, Club World Cup, Europa Conference League) do not count.
The “Domestic Double” is to be considered as the team’s victory in the apparent equivalent of the respective domestic league and FA Cup.
For settlement purposes, bets referring to the number of cards shown by the referee 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 cards for one player is 3 cards. Only cards shown to players currently eligible as per the Sport Specific Rules, Section C, Paragraph 25, Clause 5, will be taken into consideration.
Bets on whether a particular player 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, regardless of any further deflections which the ball trajectory might incur following the initial shot. For the sake of clarity, the lines delineating the “penalty box” are to be considered as an integral part of such area of the pitch. Thus, should a shot be struck with the ball hovering above, or touching, even partially, the lines, the shot will not be considered as having been outside the box.
Bets on whether a particular player or team will manage to hit the cross bar, goal post or any other part of the frame delineating the goal area (i.e., the “Woodwork”) 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. Additionally, shots which hit the woodwork only as a result of a clear deflection off of a defending player will not be considered a successful occurrence. Settlement will only take into consideration shots taken 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.
During certain events Potawatomi Sportsbook might decide to offer a reduced selection of participants for betting (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.
Bets on the performance of substitute players will be settled as void if the player is either listed in the starting XI (11 players) or does not take part in the match at all.
On offers such as Next Goalscorer, Next Carded player, Next Assist and Man of the Match stakes will be voided should the chosen player not take part in the match at all or had no possibility to accomplish such feat during the specified timeframe.
Bets on “Player to give an assist” or “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 was an own goal and/or no more goals were scored in the match during the specified timeframe.
Bets referring to penalty kicks conversion and/or outcome will be settled according to the outcome 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 case the penalty is ordered to be re-taken and will be settled with the outcome achieved from the re-taken penalty.
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 the winning outcome, disregarding any other persons/objects the ball hits in its subsequent trajectory following any previous deflection, if any. The following examples are being issued as a general guideline on settlement:
“Goal” would be the winning outcome in case of the following scored penalty scenarios:
Any penalty kick which ends up as a goal without it being deflected;
Goalkeeper touches the penalty kick, but ball ends up as goal;
Penalty kick touches the woodwork before ending up in goal.
“Save” would be the winning outcome in case of the following missed penalty scenarios:
Goalkeeper deflects the penalty kick to outside the goal frame;
Goalkeeper deflects the penalty kick onto the post/crossbar.
“Woodwork” would be the winning outcome in case of the following missed penalty scenarios:
Penalty kick hits the woodwork before it is touched/saved by the goalkeeper;
Penalty kick hits the woodwork 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 ends up outside the goal frame.
Exception to the above scenarios would be:
During a penalty shoot-out, if the ball hits the woodwork, bounces on the goalkeeper and ends in goal, the penalty will be considered as having been scored and “Goal” will be considered as the winning outcome; and
During any other part of the match that is not a penalty shoot-out, if the ball hits the woodwork, bounces on the goalkeeper and ends in goal, the penalty taker will be considered as having missed the score and “Woodwork” will be considered as the winning outcome.
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 deemed 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 bet-offers, 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 VAR decision will stand.
For settlement purposes, VAR reviews, and the decisions emanating from the reviews to be considered as having happened at the time of the original incident for which the VAR would be eventually used even if play has not been immediately interrupted. Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right, in accordance with the Conditions of Agreement, Section A, Paragraph 6, Clause 2, to reverse any previously settled offers where the settlement becomes inaccurate following the final referee decision, providing the decision is taken and communicated before the conclusion of the match and/or timeframe listed.
In order to avoid any doubts, Potawatomi Sportsbook will consider the VAR as having been used if it is understood from the referee’s gestures (e.g., hand gestures, stopping the match to review the incident themselves), and/or the VAR usage is confirmed by the match report issued by the governing body. In cases where it is unclear whether the VAR has been used due to missing TV coverage and/or conflicting reports, Potawatomi Sportsbook will settle the bets based on the information acquired from feed providers and reputable online sources on the basis of equity.
For settlement purposes, markets referring to team 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 examples are being listed as a guideline:
First card shown in a match is a straight Red Card. The team to which the card is awarded will be settled as the winning selection for the offers: 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 to which the cards are awarded will be settled as the winning selection for the offers: Cards #1, #2 and #3;
First card shown in a match is a Yellow Card followed by a second Yellow Card with a subsequent Red Card to the same player. The team to which the cards are awarded will be settled as the winning selection for the offers: Cards #1, #2 and #3.
Markets referring to which specific player will be the next to be booked/receive a card are to be understood and settled as per the order of the instance in which each single player gets booked/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” provided 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.
Any reference to “Free Kicks” when presented as either a single outcome or as an occurrence will also take into consideration instances awarded for offsides and any other violation except those sanctioned with a penalty.
All bets will remain valid provided the match/offer is played within the tournament framework regardless of any changes (either before or during the match) in conditions (indoor/outdoor) and/or surface types, unless other arrangements have been agreed.
Match Bet offers are based on the general principle of tournament progress or tournament win, depending on the phase of the competition to which the match refers. The player/team progressing to the next round or winning the tournament is to be considered as the winner of the bet regardless of withdrawals, disqualifications, etc. These bets require at least one set to be completed for bets to stand.
“Total” and “Spreads” (or “Handicap”) offers on unfinished matches in which the outcome is already determined before an interruption of play and/or any further continuation of play could not possibly produce a different outcome to the offers will be settled based on the result achieved until the interruption. For the calculation of these settlements, the minimum number of occurrences had the matches been completed without a retirement 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 variations could affect the outcome of the offer this will be settled as such. The following examples can be used for consideration:
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. Bets on lines higher than that will be settled as void.
Example 2 – Handicap: A retirement occurs at the start of the 3rd set in a match scheduled for 5 sets with the score at 1-1. Bets on +2.5 sets will be settled as Winners and bets on -2.5 sets will be settled as Lost. Offers on any lines lower than that amount will be settled as void.
Example 3: A “Best of 5” set match ends with Player A retiring with the score 6-2, 3-6, 1-4: Had Player A won all remaining games (should the match have continued without retirement), the score would have been 6-2, 3-6, 6-4, 6-0, making the margin 11 games. However, this is not the highest possible margin as the match could also have ended 6-2, 3-6, 6-7, 6-0, 6-0, making the margin 12 games. As such, any bets on -12.5 or higher are settled as lost and any bets on -11.5 or lower are settled as void.
All “Correct Score” (namely Set Betting and Game Betting) and “Odd/Even” offers, and those offers which refer to the winner of a particular period in the match (e.g., “Which player will win the first set?” and “Set 2 – Game 6: Winner”), require the relevant part of the match to be completed.
All types of offers not specified above require at least one set to be completed for bets to stand, except for those offers in which the outcome is already determined prior to an interruption of play and any further continuation of play could not possibly produce a different outcome.
In a Doubles match, all bets will be declared void if any of the stated players are substituted or replaced.
Any reference to “Grand Slams” will be based on the tournaments for that particular season to which the ITF attributes the definition, regardless of any venue, date or any other changes.
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. 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.
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 is already determined. Should a match be played in a format/number of sets different than that presumed at time the market was published, Potawatomi Sportsbook will void the applicable markets pertaining to X, Y, Z unless the necessary number of occurrences has already been achieved regardless of the change in format/number of sets.
As a general rule “tiebreaks” are always considered as 1 game only, regardless of the number of points needed to win or whatever the format of the “tiebreak”. The following tiebreaking scenarios will be settled as follows:
“Match tiebreak”: 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 tiebreak 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 1 game and counted accordingly as well as a tiebreak 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 1 game and counted accordingly as well as a tiebreak 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 1 game and counted accordingly as well as a tiebreak 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 tiebreak for the settlement of the relevant offers;
“Tiebreak Tens”: A match which consists solely of a tiebreak 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 tiebreak and as a full match for the settlement of the relevant offers.
Should any match include a tiebreaking format not listed above, offers will be settled according to the definitions as described by the ITF or, in absentia, the closest in principle to the examples listed above.
Win/Place and Each-Way bets referring to the Tournament Winner 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. Exception will be made for any participants still involved in the qualifying stages as these will be considered as active participants.
Bets on season related performances (e.g. “number of Grand Slam titles won” or “to finish top 20 yes/no” will be void if the player does not play at least 5 ranking point awarding events during the season.
All wagers will be settled in accordance with official information available on league websites or other publicly available sources.
Wagers on which team will draft a player are settled on the team who officially drafted that player. Any previous or subsequent trades will not be taken into consideration for settlement.
Season Long Awards offered by professional leagues are those given out by the respective leagues.
Season Long Awards offered in college are explicitly listed by the name of the award (i.e. Heisman Memorial Trophy, John R. Wooden Award, etc.) or are those given out by the governing body (i.e. NCAA).
Single Game Awards are those given out by the respective league governing body (i.e. Super Bowl MVP).
Series Awards offered by professional leagues are those given out by the respective league governing body (i.e. World Series MVP).
All offers will be settled based on the official result declared by the governing body at the completion of the last scheduled heat. Subsequent promotions, demotions, appeals and/or penalties inflicted after the termination of the event which the bet refers to are disregarded.
“Match” bets between two teams/riders are settled according to the official result, regardless of the number of heats completed.
“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 amount 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 <Section C, Para 28.3> for reference.
“Handicap” offers require all scheduled heats 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 <Section C, Para 28.3> for reference.
All “Head-to-Head” and “Over/Under” bets featuring the performance of one or more riders in an event/heat are considered valid given that all listed riders take part in at least one heat for bets to stand.
Bets referring to a specific heat require the specific heat to be completed and all listed participants to take part in the particular heat for bets to stand.

However, Potawatomi Sportsbook will take into account and settle/re-settle accordingly, following any changes to the official result issued within 24 hours after the event has taken place. For such eventuality to be considered, the protest must be attributable to incidents happening exclusively during the event, such as a line infringement, pushes or a false handover in a relay race, etc. No doping cases will be considered. The result available at the end of the aforementioned 24 hours will be deemed as binding regardless of any further protests, changes to the official result, etc.
If two or more participants take part in different heats during a competition, all Head-to-Head offers between them will be considered void, unless there is a later stage in the competition that at least one of them qualifies for.
A participant that is disqualified due to infringement of the start procedure (false start) will be deemed as having taken part in the event.

All bet offers will be settled based on the first official result being presented. However, Potawatomi Sportsbook will settle/re-settle accordingly, any changes to the official result issued within 24 hours after the event has taken place. For such eventuality to be considered, the protest must be attributable to incidents happening exclusively during the event, such as a lane infringement or an early start in a relay race, etc. No doping cases will be considered. The result available at the end of the aforementioned 24 hours will be deemed as binding regardless of any further protests, changes to the official result, etc.

This section is valid for the following sports: Alpine Skiing, Biathlon, Cross Country Skiing, Freestyle, Nordic Combined, Short Track, Ski Jumping, Snowboard & Speed Skating.
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.
In cases of abandoned/uncompleted events, all 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 are deemed valid and will be settled accordingly.
All offers will be settled as void if the original/stated format of an event is completely changed, like the size of hill in Ski Jumping, style in Course Country Skiing, etc.
Offers related to specific Winter Sports events (excluding for example bets referring to Overall classifications, Olympic, World and Continental competitions), are offered with the explicit assumption that the particular event will be the next event held in that particular sports/discipline. Should the specific event be moved for any reason whatsoever and an exactly similar event for that sports/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 sports/discipline.
Thus, if for example two separate races from the same sports/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 in accordance with the next scheduled event, in this case Saturday's events.
In cases where just 1 event is scheduled in that sports/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 connotations be held in the 72 hour period after the initially scheduled time, bets will be settled as void.
In a “Head-to-Head” between two or three participants, at least one of the listed participants must complete the final run/stage/jump which the bet refers to, for bets to be considered valid. Such provision is not applicable for Cross-country Sprint events which include different elimination stages as well as Ski Jumping. In such cases, settlement will be based on the official classification irrespective of whether any of the listed participants completes the final run/stage/jump.
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 “Dead Heat” rule as detailed in <Section B, Para 5.14>. 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, where 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.
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 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/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).
For “Total Runs Delivery X” (Over/Under & Odd/Even) betting, “extras” (but not “penalty runs”) as per match scorecard 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).
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 & 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, 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).
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, declaration).
For “Total Wides” (Over/Under) betting, settlement will be based on the “Runs” scored from “Wides” and not the number of “Wides” bowled. E.g. If a single wide delivery reaches the boundary it shall count as 5 total wides.
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.
For “Most Run Outs” betting, settlement will be based on the batting team not the fielding team. (E.g. run outs count for the team of the player that is dismissed).
For “Odd/Even” betting, a ball must be bowled for bets to stand.
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.
For all “4s” betting including but not limited to total 4s, most 4s & 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 batter will be counted. No-balls that reach the boundary off the bat and are awarded to the batter will be counted. Leg-byes & byes that reach the boundary are not included. Wides that reach the boundary are not included.
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.
Offers combining a number of occurrences by a specific player/team within a match/event require that all connotations related to said offer be fully and unquestionably complied with. Should one or more parts of the offer end in a tie, bets will be settled as LOST.
“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 and not entering the game as an “Impact Player” or batting/bowling substitute will be declared void. Bets on players who are selected but do not bat or field will be settled as losers. In the event of a tie, “Dead Heat” rule as detailed in <Section B, Para 5.14> will apply. Additionally, the following will apply as specified:
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 Twenty 20 match, T10 or Hundred match unless a team is all-out or the match is completed.
For all Test matches and 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”).
All “Top Wicket Taker” bets will be settled solely on the number of wickets taken regardless of the number of runs conceded.
All “Top Wicket Taker” bets will be void if no wicket is taken by any bowler in that innings.
This rule excludes any Tournament or Series market as covered in <Section C, Para 10.b.5>.
“Player of the Match/Match Hero” bets placed on any player not in the starting 11 and not entering the game as an “Impact Player” or batting/bowling substitute will be declared void. Bets on players who are selected but do not bat or bowl will be settled as losers. In the event of a tie, “Dead Heat” rule as detailed in <Section B, Para 5.14> will apply.
“Next Batter Out” 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 batters must be batting at the fall of the nominated wicket for bets to stand.
“Most Runs” (2-way & 3-way) matchups require that both/all players 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” rule as detailed in <Section B, Para 5.14> will apply.
“Most Wickets” (2-way & 3-way) matchups require that both/all players bowl at least 1 ball for bets to stand. In the event of a tie, if no draw price was offered, “Dead Heat” rule as detailed in <Section B, Para 5.14> will apply.
“Player Performance” bets placed on any player not in the starting 11 and not entering the game as an “Impact Player” or batting/bowling substitute will be declared void. Settlement is based on the following points-based scoring system:
Additionally, for all limited overs matches, all bets will be declared as void should the number of overs be reduced due to weather (or any other reason) from the standard scheduled number of overs in a Twenty 20 match or any other 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 will be settled accordingly.
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 and not entering the game as an “Impact Player” or batting/bowling substitute will be declared void. Bets will also be void if the player does not bowl a ball.
“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.
For “Player to score Fastest 50/Century” betting, settlement is based on the least number of balls faced to reach the milestone (either 50 runs or 100 runs). In the event of a tie, “Dead Heat” rule as detailed in <Section B, Para 5.14> will apply.
“Player’s Total Runs/Player’s Total 4s/Player’s Total 6s/Player to Score at Least X Runs” (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 batter's innings is ended by weather or bad light, all bets where a result has not been determined will be declared void. A result is deemed to have been determined if a batter has passed the run total at which the bet was accepted, has been dismissed or an innings completed/declaration made.
For example, if a batter's score stands at 50 “Not-Out” when a game or innings is terminated due to bad light or rain, 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 batter 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.
“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 score is 50 or more runs regardless of whether the player scores a century or more. In cases where a batter's innings is ended by weather or bad light, all bets where a result has not been determined will be declared void, unless the game has reached a natural conclusion. Should a batter 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 the intervention of rain (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 (player to score 50) bets will be declared void granted that the reduction is 10% or more of those scheduled. 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 less, then any reduction in overs will void bets. Should the outcome of such offers be already decided before the interruption and no further play could possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these will be settled accordingly.
For in-play bets for all limited overs matches, any reduction in scheduled overs after the bet was struck will void bets unless the outcome of such offers has already been decided before the interruption and no further play could possibly change the outcome of such bets.
“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 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 score is 200 or more runs.
In cases where a batter's innings is ended by weather or bad light, all bets where a result has not been determined will be declared void. Should a batter 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 the intervention of rain (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 (player to score 100/200) bets will be declared void granted that the reduction is 10% or more of those scheduled. 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 less, then any reduction in overs will void bets. 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 will be settled accordingly.
For in-play bets for all limited overs matches, any reduction in scheduled overs after the bet was struck will void bets unless the outcome of such offers is already decided before the interruption and no further play could possibly change the outcome of such bets.
“Batter’s Strike Rate” (Over/Under) betting requires players to reach the crease and face a ball. In cases where a batter’s innings is ended by weather or bad light, all bets where a result has not been determined will be declared void. A result is deemed to have been determined if a batter has been dismissed or an innings completed/declaration made. Should a batter 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.
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.
Match odds (head to head) betting pays on the official result. In the event of a tie, “Dead Heat” rule as detailed in <Section B, Para 5.14> 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.
If any “Super Over” or tie-breaker is required, any runs, wickets or any other stat that may occur in the super over/tie breaker do not count towards any betting market (except match result) including player bet offers & team totals (e.g. Top batsman/bowler, player runs, total 6’s, to take at least X wickets). This rule does not apply to specific bet offers relating to “Super Overs” (e.g. Super Over Total Runs).
For “Match Handicap / Winning Margin” betting, settlement will depend on whether the winning team bats 1st or 2nd. If the team batting 1st wins, 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 (or any other reason) from the standard scheduled number of overs in a Twenty 20 match or any other limited overs match.
For “Highest 1st 6/15 Overs” all bets will be declared as void should the number of overs in the match be reduced due to weather (or any other reason) from the scheduled number of overs at the time the bet was accepted (whether standard or already reduced). 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 will be settled accordingly. In the event of a tie, if no draw price was offered, “Dead Heat” rule as detailed in <Section B, Para 5.14> will apply.
“Highest Total 1st X Overs” bets will be void should the intervention of rain (or any other delay) 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 interruption and no further play could possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these will be settled accordingly.
“Highest Opening Partnership” requires that both sides complete their opening partnerships with the exception of those situations where an outcome has already been determined. 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” rule as detailed in <Section B, Para 5.14> 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 (or any other reason) from the scheduled number of overs at the time the bet was accepted (whether standard or already reduced). 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 will be settled accordingly.
In “Fall of Next Wicket” & “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; 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 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 all bets will stand, unless there is no further play in the match. In such case all bets where a result has not been determined will be declared void.
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 & earlier” or “any delivery in over 6 & later”).
Additionally, all (F.O.W) bets will be declared as void should the number of overs in the match be reduced due to weather (or any other reason) from the scheduled number of overs at the time the bet was accepted (whether standard or already reduced). 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 will be settled accordingly.
For “Total Match Runs/Total Runs – Innings X” (Over/Under) (e.g. Total Team Runs) betting, all bets will be declared as void should the number of overs in the match be reduced due to weather (or any other reason) from the scheduled number of overs at the time the bet was accepted (whether standard or already reduced). 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 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. Extras and penalty runs during the innings, according to the match scorecard, will be counted.
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 (or any other reason) from the scheduled number of overs in the match at the time the bet was accepted (whether standard or already reduced). Should the outcome of such offers have already been decided before the interruption and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these 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.
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 (or any other reason) from the scheduled number of overs in the match at the time the bet was accepted (whether standard or already reduced). Should the outcome of such offers have already been decided before the interruption and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these will be settled accordingly. Leg-bye and byes that reach/pass the boundary do not count towards total 4s/6s. Overthrows awarded to the batter do count. Wides that reach the boundary are not counted. No-balls that reach the boundary off the bat and are awarded to the batter will be counted.
For “Most Fours/Sixes/Wides/Run-outs/Boundaries/Ducks/Extras” betting, should the intervention of rain (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 will be declared void granted that the reduction is 10% or more of those scheduled. 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 less, then any reduction in overs will void (most “X”) bets. 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 will be settled accordingly. Leg-bye and byes that reach/pass the boundary do not count towards total 4s/6s. In the event of a tie, if no draw price was offered, “Dead Heat” rule as detailed in <Section B, Para 5.14> apply.

For “Highest Individual Score”, all bets will be declared as void should the number of overs in the match be reduced due to weather (or any other reason) from the standard scheduled number of overs in a Twenty 20 match or any other limited overs match. Should the outcome of such offers be already decided before the interruption then these will be settled accordingly.
For “Team of Top Run Scorer” betting, should the intervention of rain (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 scheduled. 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 less, then any reduction in overs will void bets. 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 will be settled accordingly. In the event of a tie, if no draw price was offered, “Dead Heat” rule as detailed in <Section B, Para 5.14> will apply.
For “Fifty/Century in Match” (Yes/No) betting, should the intervention of rain (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 granted that the reduction is 10% or more of those scheduled.

In “Fall of Next Wicket” & “Opening Partnership” (Over/Under) betting, should either batsman retire due to injury or any other reason before a result has been determined all 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 such case all bets where a result has not been determined will be declared void.

Should none of the above provide an adequate resolution, Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right, in its discretion, to settle offers on an individual basis on the basis of equity, using generally accepted betting norms, customs and definitions.
When settling results, Potawatomi Sportsbook takes reasonable steps to use information obtained firsthand (during or exactly after the event has been concluded) from the governing body, through the game broadcast (whether TV, web-based or through other sources) and any relevant counters it might display, the game API and the official website. Should the required information be omitted from firsthand viewing and/or official sources, or if there is an obvious Error in the information included in the sources above, the settlement of the bet offer will be based on other public sources.
Settlement of bets will not include any changes deriving from and/or attributable to: disqualifications, penalizations, protests, sub-judice results, successive changes to the official result after the event has been completed and a result has been announced, even preliminarily, or the like. For bets referring to competitions which span over more than 1 round/stage (e.g., Tournament Bets), only amendments affecting bets which have not been settled yet will be taken into consideration.
The following example is being provided as a general guideline of how such bets would be treated in case of comparable situations: A bet on a team to reach the semi-finals of a tournament will be considered as having been attained once the governing body deems it as such, even if the same team is disqualified from the tournament at a later stage for any reason whatsoever.
Although Potawatomi Sportsbook takes reasonable precautions to represent an accurate rendition of the event as scheduled by the governing body, any references to the order in which the participants are shown, venue(s), etc. are to be deemed for information purposes only. Switching of Home/Away participants, as well as previously announced venues, will not be deemed as valid grounds for cancellation of bets placed.
Before or during an event/match, Potawatomi Sportsbook may decide to show current and past scores, counters and other statistics related to the offer. Potawatomi Sportsbook provides such data for information purposes only and will not be responsible for the accuracy of such data. All data presented in this regard must be treated as unofficial and any inaccuracy will not be deemed as valid grounds for the cancellation of bets placed.

Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right, in its discretion, to void bets should any of the following situations arise:
Potawatomi Sportsbook experiences lag in receiving data/image streams from any of its sources/providers, resulting in Potawatomi Sportsbook presenting odds not reflecting the current state of the bet;
It is reasonably obvious that bets have been placed from accounts which have access to data/image streams not available at that time to Potawatomi Sportsbook;
Bets have been placed after any participant has gained an advantage sufficient to alter the odds of any offer, even just theoretically, without the odds having been adjusted to reflect the current state of the bet.
Should a match start at a different time than that listed on the Site, this will not be deemed as valid grounds for cancellation of the bets, provided the exact same match is the next match taking place for both teams within the same tournament and is valid for the round/stage initially intended.
Unless specifically stated, if the governing body includes any extra rounds/overtime, qualifying match(es) or series of matches in order to determine any classification and/or match outcome, Potawatomi Sportsbook will take into account the results and outcomes deriving from the added matches, rounds, and overtime for settling bets referring to match/classification.
All bet offers related to matches, or parts thereof, which do not take place at all or are awarded a result through a walk-over decision will be declared void. For settlement purposes, action within a match (or part thereof) is considered to have occurred if either the game clock has started or a participant performs an in-game action related to the match (or part thereof), whichever happens first.
Offers related to matches or parts thereof which get abandoned for whatever reason, with no result declared by the official organization within 12 hours from the actual match start, will have the stakes refunded on those bet offers whose result has not yet been determined. 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.
For all Match odds, Series Outcome and Team to go Through offers, the first official decision on the outcome of the offer issued by the governing association within 12 hours of match completion/abandonment will be the deciding factor for the settlement of bets, including but not limited to any decisions involving disqualifications, withdrawals, concessions, etc., which will be taken into account for settlement purposes. In cases where the offer ends in a drawn outcome, with said outcome not having been available as a possible outcome for betting purposes, stakes will be refunded.
Should it be decided that an abandoned match (or part thereof) is to be continued within 12 hours of the original start time, all bets placed on the initial match will stand and will be settled through the outcomes deriving from the continued play.
Should it be decided that an abandoned match (or part thereof) is to be restarted from the beginning within 36 hours of the original start time, all bets placed on the initial match which could not be settled through the outcomes deriving from the play prior to abandonment will be declared void.
Unless otherwise stated either in the Game-Specific rules or in conjunction with the bet offer, specific events forming part of tournaments/competitions which are 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 schedule conflicts, technical issues or similar scenarios will be declared void, with the following exceptions where bets will remain valid:
Events which starting times have not been officially confirmed yet by the governing body at time of bet placement;
Events which are moved due to scheduling conflicts but remain scheduled to be played within the same game day/game week/round (as applicable) and the movement does not change the order of official fixtures for any of the participants in the offer;
Events which start times are anticipated (brought forward) but remain scheduled to be played within the same game day/game week/round (as applicable) and, without prejudice to past-posting and similar occurrences as defined in <Section A, Para 5.4>, the change does not modify the order of official fixtures for any of the participants in the offer.
Should it be the case that either participant is involved in a match from the same tournament with a different opponent between the time of the abandonment and the continuation of the initial match, all pending bets on the initial match will be settled as void regardless of the outcomes obtained during the continuation of the match.
Offers referring to Tournament outcomes and or matches/events scheduled over 2 or more days will remain valid, provided the event is considered completed and an official result is announced by the governing body within the specified year, regardless of the current/future participation (or lack thereof) of any listed and/or previously announced participant, unless otherwise stated.
Where matches have not been completed before their natural conclusion, but a result is issued through a decision by the governing body not more than 36 hours from the event’s actual start without play having continued following the abandonment, Potawatomi Sportsbook will use the issued decision as the official result for the offers detailing the outcome of the match and/or tournament progress (e.g., Match odds and Participant to reach next round) provided the issued decision does not change the outcome of the bet offers at the time of the abandonment, in which case the stakes will be refunded.
(E.g., Team A leading 2 Maps to nil in a best of 5 Maps match and Team B concedes: Association declares Team A as winner of the match = bet stands. Meanwhile if the same best of 5 Maps match was abandoned with the score 1-1 and the Association declares either team as the winner, the bet will be considered as void).
All other offers 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.
Settlement of bet offers linked to counters (e.g., Total Kills) and any other offers related to specific terminology will be decided according to the definition with which the official governing body issues the statistics. Potawatomi Sportsbook will not consider inconsistent personal interpretation of such terms.
When placing “Outright” or “Place” bets, no stakes will be refunded on participants/outcomes that are not participating, withdraw from an event prior to the beginning of the entire event (including qualifying events), unless otherwise stated.
Offers referring to a single participant’s performance in a specific event/timeframe (such as Tournament Progress of Team X) require the listed participant to play an active part at least once in a subsequent stage of the applicable event/timeframe after the bet has been placed and/or accepted.
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 patron has the possibility to ask for a price on a non-listed participant/outcome. Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right, at its own discretion, to decline such requests.
Offers which confront against each other the performances of two or more participants over a specified timeframe/competition will only be settled based on the result of the listed participants, disregarding all other participants in the same competition/event.
In case a participant is disqualified/withheld/banned from taking part in a subsequent part/phase of an event/competition for any reason whatsoever, as well as in case of voluntary withdrawals, the disqualification will be considered to have taken place at the time of the official announcement. No changes will be made to previous results, regardless of any modifications due to the actions.
In an “Outright” or “Place” bet, should two or more participants be considered to have obtained the same result and the governing body does not distinguish in their classification, dead heat rules as specified in the General Betting Rules, Section B, Paragraph 5, Clause 14, applies.
Potawatomi Sportsbook will refund stakes on offers comparing the achievements/performances of two participants within a specified timeframe (e.g., Tournament Best Finishing Position, Match Winner, Winner of Map X) should any of the following circumstances apply:
No odds were offered on a “draw” outcome and no tie-breaking procedures/overtime/extra rounds are used by the governing body to result in a match/offer or classify participants that obtained the same result;
Any of the listed participants does not play any further part in any subsequent stage of the related event/part thereof after the bet has been placed and/or accepted;
None of the listed participants is included in the applicable classification;
None of the listed participants is deemed to have achieved the specified requirement after the bet has been placed and/or accepted and no odds for such outcome has been offered.
Offers comparing the achievements/performances of three participants will be treated as detailed in preceding clause, with the exception that should two or more participants share the applicable finishing position dead heat rules as specified in the General Betting Rules, Section B, Paragraph 5, Clause 14, applies.
“Outright” and “Place” bets rules apply on offers comparing the achievements/performances of four or more participants, with the exception of those offers specifically listed as “Group Betting”. In such cases, stakes will be refunded if at least one of the listed participants is not actively involved anymore for whatever reason after the bet has been placed and/or accepted.
Unless the outcome of the offer has already been determined before any change is announced, bets referring to a race to a particular happening/totals of a particular occurrence (e.g., First participant to win X rounds, Over/Under Maps played) or the margins/difference of completed occurrence between participants (e.g., Map Handicap, Exact Map score in the match) will be settled as void if the match format is completely changed in a way that would alter the counter of such occurrences and their respective odds, including but not limited to cases where the number of scheduled Maps is changed from a previously announced odd number of scheduled Maps (e.g., Best of 1/3/5) to an even number of scheduled Maps (e.g., Best of 2/4/6) and vice-versa.
Bets will stand and will be settled accordingly for those offers where the announced changed is not relevant (e.g., Match odds will remain valid if the number of scheduled Maps is changed from the previously announced 3 Maps to 5 Maps), or the outcome of the offer has already been determined before any change is announced.
The following example is being provided as a general guideline of how such bets would be treated in case of comparable situations: A bet on “To win 1st Map” will remain valid if a match is changed from 3 to 5 Maps but an Over/Under bet on Total Maps in the Match would be settled as void in a similar scenario.
Should Potawatomi Sportsbook erroneously offer odds and lines based on a different number of Maps/Games/Rounds from the correctly scheduled number of the instances, settlement of offers referring to a race to a particular happening/totals of a particular occurrence (e.g., First participant to win X rounds, Over/Under Maps played) or the margins/difference of completed occurrence between participants (e.g., Map Handicap, Exact Map score in the match) will be settled as void if the match format is completely different in a way that would alter the counter of such occurrences and their respective odds, including but not limited to cases where the number of scheduled Maps is calculated on an odd number of scheduled Maps (e.g., Best of 1/3/5) when the match is scheduled for an even number of Maps (e.g., Best of 2/4/6) and vice-versa.
Bets will stand and will be settled accordingly for those offers where the discrepancy is not relevant (e.g., Match odds will remain valid if the number of scheduled Maps quoted is 3 instead of the stipulated 5 Maps), or the outcome of the offer has already been determined before any change is announced.
The following example is being provided as a general guideline of how such bets would be treated in case of comparable situations: A bet on “To win 1st Map” will remain valid if a match is listed as 3 instead of 5 Maps but an Over/Under bet on Total Maps in the Match would be settled as void in a similar scenario.
During specific events Potawatomi Sportsbook might decide, solely at its own discretion, to offer for betting purposes a reduced selection of participants which could 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. Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right to list/specify more participants at a later stage. Should these newly listed participants be the winning outcome, they will be considered as having been unlisted until the time they have actually been introduced to the list and settled accordingly.
Offers that make a specific reference to a participant’s performance in a particular event/timeframe (e.g., Team X vs The Field or Winner without Team X) are to be considered void if the mentioned participants fail to play an active part at least once in a subsequent stage of the applicable event/timeframe after the bet has been placed and/or accepted.
Should a match start with a different number of players than that encompassed in the event regulations (e.g., Either team starts a match with only 4 players instead of the scheduled 5 players), all bets will be determined as void. In case either team loses momentarily and/or permanently from the match any number of players, after the match has started with the stipulated number of participants as per the event regulation, bets will remain valid.
Bets on matches/events featuring participants which use a different/wrong nickname or using a “smurf account” will stand, provided it does not become reasonably obvious that the participant using that particular nickname is not the one intended. In such cases bets will be settled as void.
Bets on a team are to be considered valid regardless of the individuals used by the team as participants. Should the governing body deem it permissible for a team to play with a stand-in participant or replacement player, all bets will stand provided an official result is issued.
Any form of a qualification ahead of the main tournament (where applicable) 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 stage.
In the 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, etc.
Any bets referring to duration represent the actual time passed in the map/round/event, as applicable. For example, a bet on Over 30.5 minutes in a Map will be settled as Over once 30 minutes and a half in the specified map have passed.
Any reference to “Winner” and/or “Upper” bracket will remain valid regardless of whether Maps and/or any other advantages are awarded via the event rules to any participant.
Advantages awarded via event structure will be considered for settlement purposes, unless otherwise specified. Nonetheless, any reference to specific indexes of Maps, Games, etc. as presented on the Site is always to be considered as relevant to the phase of the match being actually played.
Example: in a best of 3 Maps match where Team A starts with a 1 Map advantage, any Map 1 related offers will actually refer to the outcomes emanating from the second Map of the match (i.e., the first Map to be actually played).
The following rules apply to any games which are categorized as being of an FPS genre. These include, but are not limited to Call of Duty, Counterstrike, Overwatch, Quake, Valorant and Rainbow Six.

Potawatomi Sportsbook reserves the right to apply the settlement rules of this genre to any games not listed above which are generally acknowledged as such.
Should overtime/extra Maps/extra rounds be required to decide the Match Outcome (or any part of it), and unless otherwise stated within the offer, the outcomes deriving from added play will be taken into account for settlement purposes. This however does not apply to Correct Score offers.
