If you wager on the tie, and one of the teams wins at the end of 90 minutes, the wager is a loss.

This comprises two separate markets and you must clearly state whether you wish to bet on a player to score the first OR the last goal.

Bets on first goal scorer, where the selection does not play until after the first goal has been scored will be void. Bets on first goal scorers where the selection is substituted or sent off before the first goal is scored will be treated as losers.

Prices for players not quoted are always available on request, and will count as winners if they score the first/last goal.

If the scheduled number of rounds is changed, all wagers on pick the round are void.

Straight money line betting as well as proposition bets on whether the fight, will go to a certain amount of rounds as predetermined on the day of the fight.

Examples:

Tyson –280 risk $280 to win $100 on Tyson

Holyfield +190 risk $100 to win $190 on Holyfield

Will go 4 1/2 rounds +150 risk $100 to win $150

Will not go 4 1/2 rounds –170 risk $170 to win $100

• In round by round betting: if a boxer fails to answer the bell, the fight will be deemed to have ended in the previous round.
• If the scheduled number of rounds is changed all "Pick the round" bets are void and bets refunded.
• All bets on either boxer to win will be decided by the judge's decision, which includes points, Technical knockout (TKO), Knockout (KO) or disqualification.
• Where a match is abandoned or postponed, but fought within 7 days of the original scheduled date, all bets stand.
• Once the 7 days have expired, all bets are void.

This is the most common type of sports wager, based on the results of a single game.

One team is favored over another by a point spread.

The favorite is indicated by a minus sign (–3) and the underdog by a plus sign (+3).

Example:

SAN FRANCISCO –3

Seattle +3

The result of the bet is determined by taking the actual score and subtracting the spread of the team or side chosen.

When wagering on the money line, you must win the game on the field in order to win your bet.

Example:

SAN FRANCISCO –290

Seattle +240

Let's say you're wagering on San Francisco –290

You're simply wagering on them to win outright, the point spread does not matter.

You must risk $290 to win $100.

Wagering on SEATTLE +240, you'd risk $100 to win $240 in order to win this wager Seattle would need to win outright. (the point spread would not come into play.)

A total wager is based on the combined total number of points or goals scored by two teams in a single game. A player bets on whether the combined total number of points or goals scored by the two teams in the game will be over or under the total set by the odds maker/handicapper.

A parlay wager is a bet on two or more teams or selections. It is one of the more versatile forms of sports wagering. The player can combine different sports, point spreads and money lines. In a parlay wager the original stake and winnings are re–invested on the next game, and all selections must be correct, that is, one loss and the parlay loses.

In the event of a push (tie), game cancellation, or a pitcher who you have specified as not starting, actually starts, the parlay reduces to the next lower number. A four team parlay becomes a three team parlay. A winning parlay wager will pay many times greater than the initial wager.

No parlay wagers will be accepted where individual selections or propositions are connected.

For example: you cannot parlay the over of the first half of a football game with the over of the total on the same game, because the two are connected.

A teaser wager is a wager on two or more teams or selections. The difference between the teaser wager and the parlay is that the player can adjust or tease the line in his/her own favor.

For example:

2 team teaser 7pt for $100

Green Bay –7+7 pts = the teased line is now "pick"

Chicago Bears +7+7 pts = the teased line is now +14

An IF – win wager is a bet that carries over to a second team if the player wins on his initial selection.

For example: the player has to wager a fixed amount on one team. If that team wins, or the game is tied, then another fixed amount, up to the original amount wagered, shall be placed on a different team.

The player must win his/her first wager in order to continue the action on the remaining wagers. If the first wager loses, there is no subsequent action. Note that the player cannot have duplicate teams in the same if – win wager.

Let us look at each of the following examples:

Example One:

Place a fixed wager on Denver Broncos to win by more than the spread (–6.5).

If Broncos win by 7 or more, than a fixed wager (up to the original amount) is placed on Seattle Seahawks to win by more than the spread (–2.5).

If Seattle also wins by 3 or more, then the player would collect $200 .00 on a stake of $110.00.

Example Two:

Place a fixed wager on Denver Broncos to win by more than the spread (–6.5).

If Broncos win by 7 or more, than a fixed wager (up to the original amount) is placed on Seattle Seahawks win by more than the spread (–2.5).

However, if Seattle loses, the player would lose $11.00 on a stake of $110.00.

Example Three:

Place a fixed wager on Denver Broncos to win by more than the spread (–6.5).

If Broncos lose, and Seattle wins, the player would then lose $110.00 on a stake of $110.00

A reverse wager is the same as two if – win wagers. This means that if wager A wins, the bet goes to wager B. Likewise, if wager B wins, the bet goes to wager A. On the other hand, if wager A loses, the bet does not go to wager B. And again, if wager B loses, the bet does not go to wager A. If wager A wins, the bet goes to wager B, but if wager B loses, the bet does not go to wager A.

All standard reverse bets are double action, therefore, in the event of a tie, the bet is still active.

For example:

San Francisco 49ers –6.5 VS Miami Dolphins

Chicago Bears –6.5 VS Seattle Seahawks

When wagering on SAN FRANCISCO –6.5 you must win by at least 7 points to win the bet.

When wagering on SEATTLE +6.5 you cannot lose by more than 6 points to win the bet. On the other hand if the line was a solid –6 and SAN FRANCISCO wins by exactly 6 points then the bet is a "push", and the stake or money is returned to your account.

At Thebulldogsports.com all Daily Double tickets are paid out based on the official race results as published by the host track at which the race was run. If there is a scratched horse in a DD, only combinations including the scratched horse will be refunded. We do not recognize consolation payouts, such as payouts on scratched horses. Whenever a track pays "ALL" in any of the positions of the Daily Double only the wagers with the WINNING horse will be paid.

At Thebulldogsports.com if a horse is scratched, all Win/Place/Show wagers placed via the horseracing interface will be refunded. (This does not apply to 'Odds to Win' bets placed via the Sportsbook on those bets a scratch counts as a loss). Only the portion of Exacta/Trifecta/Quinella combos that contain the scratched horse will be refunded. In case a horse is considered a non starter by the track, that horse will be considered a scratch and refunded accordingly. In exotics wagers (Exacta, Trifecta, Quinella) scratches will be refunded. We do not honor "ALL" payouts in any exotic wager. If there is an "all" payout, this will be replaced by the horse that came in that position rightfully and wagers will be graded accordingly. On Daily Doubles, Pick 3 wagers, a scratch will result in an automatic refund of the combination including the scratched horse. There will be no consolation payouts, special payouts such as 2 out of 3 in a Pick 3 will be considered consolation payouts, whenever that happens the Pick 3 will be paid with the rightful winner for each race involved in the Pick 3.

A "WIN" bet is just what it sounds like: The horse that you pick must win the race.

For a horse to "PLACE" it must finish the race second or better. This bet generally pays less than the win bet but it gives you two chances to win instead of just one.

For a horse to "SHOW" it must finish the race third or better. This bet pays less than either the win or place bet, but it gives you three chances to get a return for your investment.

This is a quick way to say that you want to bet a horse to finish in any of the first three positions and consists of three bets:

$2 Across The Board = $2 to win, $2 to place, and $2 to show.

If the horse wins you collect all three bets.

If the horse finishes 2nd then you collect the place and show bets.

If the horse finishes 3rd then you will only collect the show bet.

With this bet you must pick the first two finishing horses in the exact order of their finish. In other words, you must pick the horse that wins and the horse that places (or finishes second).

In the Quinella, you must pick the horses that finish first and second. Either one can be first and the other one second. This bet functions exactly the same as the "Exacta Box." Although the Quinella has a similar function as the "Exacta Box" the payoff can vary substantially. More than two horses can be selected to create all possible combinations.

To win a daily double bet you must pick the winning horse in two consecutive races. Your bet must be placed before the start of the first of the two races.

With this bet you must pick the first three finishing horses in the order of their finish. In other words, you must pick the horse that wins, the horse that finishes second and the horse that finishes third. The simplest form of this wager is the Straight Trifecta, which is a single combination of the first three finishers. A Trifecta is not offered in all races at all tracks.
