\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\n“Syndicate\r\nBetting” is an act where patrons act together to place a series of bets on the\r\nsame event or competition. Syndicate Betting is prohibited on the Site.

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
1) \r\nA\r\nbet is not valid until it is validated and shows in the patron’s bet history. In\r\ncases of uncertainty about the validity of a bet, the patron is requested to\r\ncheck the open (pending) bets or contact Desert Diamond.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\nUnless\r\naccepted in Error, once accepted, a bet will remain valid and cannot be\r\nwithdrawn. The patron is responsible for ensuring that the details of bets\r\nplaced are correct. Under no circumstance will Desert Diamond be responsible\r\nfor any mistakes (perceived or actual) deriving from either Errors as listed\r\nunder the Conditions of Agreement, Section A, Paragraph 2, Clause 1, or\r\nany other reason, such as but not limited to, incorrect listing of the\r\nodds/betting objects.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\nShould\r\na dispute arise about the acceptance (or lack thereof) of any transaction in\r\nthe patron’s account, the transaction log database will be the ultimate\r\nauthority in deciding such matters.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
1) \r\nDesert\r\nDiamond reserves the right to limit the net payout (the payout after the stake\r\nhas been deducted) on any bet or combination of bets by one patron which does\r\nnot exceed $250,000 for select bets. This limit may be lower depending on the\r\nspecific sport, league and type of bet offer. See Section E –\r\nSport Specific Limits for additional detail of payout limits by sport,\r\nleague and bet type.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\nAll\r\nbet selections are subject to pre-imposed limits set solely at Desert Diamond’s\r\ndiscretion which may be lower than the limits mentioned in Sport Specific Limits, Section E. Should this\r\nlimit be reached, a patron has the right to ask for it to be increased by making\r\na request through the Desert Diamond sports betting platform. Desert Diamond reserves\r\nthe right to accept (fully or partially) or reject the request without any\r\nprior notice and further explanation.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\nDesert\r\nDiamond reserves the right to decline, solely at its own discretion, all, or\r\npart of, any bet requested. This includes the possibility that a “System bet”\r\nas defined in the General Betting\r\nRules, Section B, Paragraph 4, is not accepted in full, either in\r\nterms of stake or combination included in the “System bet”.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4) \r\nDesert\r\nDiamond reserves the right to restrict, limit or exclude patrons, totally or partially, from their user accounts at its\r\nown discretion.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
5) \r\nAll\r\nbets placed through any Desert Diamond platform, including bets requiring\r\nmanual approval, may be subject to a time delay prior to acceptance, the length\r\nof which may vary. Such delay is to be determined by Desert Diamond at its sole\r\ndiscretion.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
6) \r\nDesert\r\nDiamond reserves the right to withhold payment and/or to declare bets void on\r\nan event (or series of events) if there is sufficient evidence that any of the\r\nfollowing has occurred:
\r\n\r\na. \r\nthe\r\nintegrity of the event has been called into question;
\r\n\r\nb. \r\nthe\r\nprice(s) or pool has been manipulated;
\r\n\r\nc. \r\ngame-fixing\r\nhas taken place, or the game/match is under investigation for such;
\r\n\r\nd. \r\nresults/outcomes\r\nneed further investigation with a third-party organization, including, but not\r\nlimited to, the organizing association and/or the relevant regulatory body.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Evidence\r\nof the above may be based on the\r\nsize, volume or pattern of bets placed with Desert Diamond, across any or\r\nall of its betting channels, as well as the size, volume or pattern of bets\r\nplaced with, or information received from, other betting providers or\r\nofficially recognized organizations.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
7) \r\nAll\r\nodds offered are subject to variation. Such fluctuation is determined solely at\r\nDesert Diamond’s discretion. Bets are accepted only at the odds available in\r\nthe betting grid at the time the bet was accepted by Desert Diamond, regardless\r\nof any other claim or previous publication present on the Site or any other\r\nmedia detailing otherwise.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
8) \r\nAll\r\npayout calculations when settling bets will be done based using decimal odds, regardless\r\nof any other format displayed/chosen at time of bet placement.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
1) \r\nA\r\nbet can be declared void. In\r\nthe event that it is void, the stake will be refunded to the patron.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) A\r\nbet made as a Parlay Bet involving two or more distinct sporting events shall\r\nremain valid even if a game/match or event which is part of the Parlay Bet is\r\ndeclared void, with that particular selection excluded from the parlay and the\r\ncomputation of odds/payout re-adjusted accordingly.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) Desert\r\nDiamond reserves the right, in its discretion, to declare a bet void, totally\r\nor partly, if an obvious error was made. This includes, but is not limited to:
\r\n\r\na. \r\nBets\r\nhave been offered, placed and/or accepted due to an Error and/or at odds which\r\nsignificantly differ from those currently present elsewhere in the market;
\r\n\r\nb. Bets\r\nplaced while the Site was encountering technical problems, that would otherwise\r\nnot have been accepted;
\r\n\r\nc. \r\nInfluence\r\nBetting;
\r\n\r\nd. Syndicate\r\nBetting;
\r\n\r\ne. \r\nA\r\nresult has been affected by criminal actions - directly or indirectly;
\r\n\r\nf. \r\nA\r\npublic announcement has occurred in relation to the bet which alters\r\nsignificantly the odds.
\r\n\r\nWhen a wager is voided in the\r\ncase of an obvious error, you will be notified by way of your online account\r\nbeing credited.
\r\n\r\n4) Related\r\ncontingencies: Unless placed through Desert Diamond’s permitted parlay functionality,\r\nor offered explicitly as a specific related contingency offering, Desert\r\nDiamond prohibits parlay bets that include two or more outcomes which might\r\nturn out to be related (e.g., Team X to become Stanley Cup Champions and Player\r\nY to be Top Goal Scorer in the same league). Although Desert Diamond takes reasonable\r\nsteps to prevent such possibilities, in the eventuality that this could happen,\r\nDesert Diamond reserves the right, in its discretion, to declare void all parts\r\nof a parlay bet which include the correlated outcomes whose odds are not\r\nindicative of the related contingency.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
5) Bets\r\ncan be voided regardless of whether the event has been settled or not.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
(a) Pre-Game\r\nWagers
\r\n\r\n\r\ni. \r\nBets\r\nplaced or accepted after the event has started;
\r\n\r\n\r\nii. \r\n Bets\r\nplaced after a related event was underway and where conditions could have been\r\naltered in a direct and indisputable way.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
(b) In-play\r\n(in-game) Wagers
\r\n\r\n\r\ni. \r\nBets\r\nplaced/accepted at incorrect odds due to delayed or failing “live” coverage;
\r\n\r\n\r\nii. \r\nBets\r\nplaced on odds which represented a different score than the actual;
\r\n\r\n\r\niii. \r\nBets\r\nplaced on particular offers after these have occurred or after an event which\r\ncould normally be deemed as leading to the outcome has happened or is happening;\r\n
\r\n\r\n\r\niv. \r\nBets\r\nplaced following the last instance that a participant had any chance to\r\ninfluence the match/event scoring applicable to the relevant market and an\r\neventual withdrawal/disqualification/cancellation/format change or anything\r\nwhich precludes the ability of the applicable participant to influence scoring\r\nwill be declared void;
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
1) \r\nDesert\r\nDiamond reserves the right, at its own discretion, to adjust a payout credited\r\nto a patron’s balance if it is obvious that the payout has been credited to the\r\npatron account in Error.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\nIn\r\norder to adjust any inaccuracy in the patron’s balance following amounts\r\ncredited due to an Error, Desert Diamond reserves the right to take any\r\nnecessary action, without prior notice and within reasonable limits, to adjust\r\nthe patron’s balance through the reversal, amendment or cancellation of any\r\nsubsequent transaction on the patron’s account.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\nDesert\r\nDiamond reserves the right to suspend access to a patron’s account until it\r\ncompletes any investigations it deems necessary.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4) \r\nThese\r\nrules are applicable to all transactions with Desert Diamond and may be\r\nsupplemented with other rules. In the event of ambiguity, priority should be\r\nconsidered in the following order:
\r\n\r\na. \r\nRules\r\nand conditions published in conjunction with an offer and/or campaign;
\r\n\r\nb. \r\nShould\r\nthese be inconclusive, reference will be made to the General Betting Rules, Section\r\nB, unless the Sport Specific Rules, Section C, declare otherwise.
\r\n\r\n5) \r\nIn\r\ncases where it deems that these rules are inconclusive, Desert Diamond reserves\r\nthe right, in its discretion, to settle offers on an individual basis on the\r\nbasis of equity, using generally accepted betting norms, customs and\r\ndefinitions.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
6) \r\nAdaptations\r\ninto other languages of these House Rules, or any other text which can be\r\nassociated with bet offers, are done for purely informative purposes. Although Desert\r\nDiamond takes reasonable precautions to assure an accurate translation of these\r\nterms into the specific language, Desert Diamond will not be responsible for\r\nany inconsistency between the English version and any other language. Thus, in\r\ncase of discrepancy between the English edition and the respective translation,\r\nthe former will be deemed as binding and will be the basis upon which the\r\noffers will be settled.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
7) \r\nAny\r\ndata provided or accessible in, from or related to the Site may be used by the patron\r\nfor private, non-commercial use only and any use or attempted use of such data\r\nfor commercial purposes is strictly prohibited.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
8) \r\nDesert\r\nDiamond has the right to enforce the Terms of Service, the Privacy Policy, and\r\nthe House Rules against any patron.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\n
Section B. General Betting Rules
\r\n\r\n1) \r\nUnless\r\nlisted either in conjunction with the bet offer, or in the Sport Specific Rules,\r\nSection C, all bets should be considered valid for the result at the end\r\nof the “Regular Time” or “Full Time” only. “Regular Time” or “Full Time” is\r\ndefined as interpreted by the official rules published by the respective\r\ngoverning association. For example, in Soccer, Full Time is stipulated to be 90\r\nminutes including injury time, and in Ice Hockey it is stipulated as the 3 x 20-minute\r\nperiods. Should the governing association decide to stipulate, before the start\r\nof the event, that such event is to be played over a different duration, this\r\nwill be treated as being the official rules for the event (e.g., a soccer match\r\nplayed with a 3 x 20 minute format vs. the typical 2 x 40 minute format).\r\nNonetheless, such occurrence is limited to the “regular” playing time and does\r\nnot include any prolongation such as extra time or overtime, unless explicitly\r\nstated.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\n“In-game\r\nbetting” or “live betting” is where it is possible to bet after the game has\r\nstarted (i.e., during the game or event). Desert Diamond will not be\r\nresponsible if it is not possible to place a bet or if the live score update is\r\nnot correct. At all times, the patron is responsible for being aware of the game\r\nand the events surrounding it, such as the current score, its progression and\r\nhow much time remains before the game is completed. Desert Diamond will not be\r\nresponsible for changes to the in-game betting schedule or interruption of the in-game\r\nbetting service.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\nThe\r\n“Cash Out” function allows the patron the ability to redeem a bet prior to the\r\noutcome being settled at its current value. It is available on designated events\r\nand offered for pre-game and live as well as on single and multiple bets. Cash\r\nOut functionality cannot be used on free bets. Cash Out requests might be\r\nsubject to the same delay procedure as listed in the Conditions of Agreement, Section\r\nA, Paragraph 4, Clause 5. During this delay, for whatever reason, if the\r\noffer is removed or odds fluctuate, the Cash Out request will not be accepted,\r\nand the patron will be notified. Desert Diamond reserves the right to offer\r\nsuch functionality solely at its own discretion and will not be responsible if\r\nthe Cash Out functionality is not available. If a Cash Out request is successful,\r\nthe bet will be settled immediately and any subsequent events which occur in\r\nrelation with the bet will not be considered. In the circumstance of a Cash Out\r\nbet having negatively impacted from a technical, pricing or settlement error at\r\nany time between the time of original offering and the final settlement, Desert\r\nDiamond reserves the right to rectify such inaccuracy in accordance with the\r\nConditions of Agreement, Section A, Paragraph 6, Clause 2.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4) \r\nA\r\n“participant” is an object constituting part of an event. A “participant” may\r\nbe a single player, a team or any group of individuals grouped or listed\r\ntogether. In “Head-to-Head” and “Triple-Head”, the participant only refers to\r\nobjects that are subject to the “Head-to-Head” or “Triple-Head” in the event.\r\nAny reference to a participant(s) in these House Rules should be construed\r\naccordingly, regardless of whether the term is used in the singular or plural.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
5) \r\nThe\r\ndeadline (cut-off time) shown on the Site is to be treated for information\r\npurposes only. Desert Diamond reserves the right, at its own discretion, to\r\nsuspend, partially or completely, the betting activity at any time where it\r\ndeems necessary.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
6) \r\nStatistics\r\nor editorial text published on the Site are to be considered as added\r\ninformation, and Desert Diamond will not be responsible if the information is\r\nnot correct. The patron is responsible, at all times, to be aware of circumstances\r\nrelating to an event.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
7) \r\nThe\r\ntheoretical return to the player in fixed odds betting is determined by the\r\nodds of all possible outcomes in the offer. For example, the theoretical\r\npayback to a player on a bet with 3 outcomes (a, b and c) can be calculated as\r\nfollows.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Theoretical % = 1 / (1/ “odds outcome a” + 1/”odds\r\noutcome b” + 1/”odds outcome c”) x 100
\r\n\r\n1) \r\n“Straight”\r\nor “Single-Game” bet is a single wager on any spread, moneyline or total\r\n(over/under) outcome.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\n“Moneyline”\r\nor “Game” is where it is possible to bet on the (partial or definite) outcome\r\nof a game or event whereby there will only be one winner.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\n“3-way\r\nMoneyline” (or “1X2”) is where it is possible to bet on the (partial or\r\ndefinite) outcome of a game or event inclusive of the option of a tie. The\r\noptions are: “1” = Home Team; “X” = Tie; “2” = Away Team.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4) \r\n“Correct\r\nScore” (or “Result Betting”) is where it is possible to bet on the (partial or\r\ndefinite) exact score of a game or event.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
5) \r\n“Over/Under”\r\n(or “Totals”) is where it is possible to bet on the (partial or definite)\r\namount of a predefined occurrence (e.g., goals, points, corners, rebounds,\r\npenalty minutes, etc.). Should the total amount of the listed occurrences be\r\nexactly equal to the betting line, then all bets on this offer will be declared\r\nvoid. Example: an offer where the betting line is 44.0 points and the game ends\r\nwith the result 22-22 will be declared void.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
6) \r\n“Odd/Even”\r\nis where it is possible to bet on the (partial or definite) amount of a\r\npredefined occurrence (e.g., goals, points, corners, rebounds, penalty minutes,\r\netc.).”Odd” is 1, 3, 5 etc.; “Even” is 0, 2, 4 etc.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
7) \r\nA\r\n“Head-to-Head” and/or “Triple-Head” is a competition between two or three\r\nparticipants/outcomes, originating from either an officially organized event or\r\nas virtually defined by Desert Diamond. An example of a Triple-Head offer is\r\nwho of three golfers will finish highest in a particular event.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
8) \r\n“Half\r\nTime/Full Time” is where it is possible to bet on the Half Time result and\r\nthe final outcome of the game. For example, if at Half Time the score is 10-7\r\nand the final score is 17-21, the winning outcome is 1/2 (assuming the score is\r\nlisted Home Team-Away Team, the Home Team led at the half and the Away Team won\r\nthe overall game or “Full Time”). Bets on this market will be declared void\r\nshould the game is played with a format where it is impossible to determine an\r\noutcome based on the timeframes listed within the offer.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
9) \r\n“Period\r\nbetting” is where it is possible to bet on the outcome of each separate period\r\nwithin a game/event. For example, if the period scores in an Ice Hockey game\r\nare 2-0, 0-1 and 1-1, the winning outcome is 1/2/X. Bets on this market will be\r\ndeclared void should the game be played with a format where it is impossible to\r\ndetermine an outcome based on the timeframes listed within the offer.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
10) “Tie\r\nNo Bet” (or “Draw No Bet”) is where it is possible to bet on either “1” (Home win)\r\nor “2” (Away win) as defined in the General Betting Rules, Section B, Paragraph\r\n2. Clause 10. It is also common practice to refer to Tie No Bet in cases\r\nwhere no tie odds are offered. Should the specific game produce no winner (e.g.,\r\ngame ends as a draw) or the occurrence not happen (e.g., First Goal, Draw No\r\nBet and match ends 0-0), all wagers will be refunded.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
11) \r\n“Spread”\r\n(or “Points Spread” for Football and Basketball, “Runline” for Baseball, “Puckline”\r\nfor Hockey betting” or “Handicap”) is where it is possible to bet on whether\r\nthe chosen outcome will be victorious once the listed spread/line is\r\nadded/subtracted (as applicable) to the game/period/total score to which the\r\nbet refers. In those circumstances where the result after the adjustment of the\r\nspread/line is exactly equal to the betting line, then all bets on this offer\r\nwill be declared void and wagers refunded. For example, a bet on -3.0 points will\r\nbe declared void if the chosen team wins the game by exactly 3 points\r\ndifference (10-7 or 24-27, etc.). Any reference in this section to the term “margin”\r\nis intended to be understood as the outcome emerging from the subtraction of\r\nthe points/runs/goals scored by the 2 teams/participants.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Unless\r\notherwise stated, all spreads/lines/handicaps listed on the Site are to be\r\ncalculated based on the result from the start of the listed game/quarter/period\r\nto the end of the specified game/quarter/period. It is customary that for\r\ncertain spread/handicap bet offers in specific sports such as Asian Handicap in\r\nSoccer, only the outcomes obtained from the time of bet placement until the end\r\nof the listed timeframe will be taken into consideration, thus disregarding any\r\npoints/goals scored before the time the bet was placed and accepted. Any bet\r\noffer with these characteristics will be highlighted on the patron’s ticket or\r\nbet history with the score at the time of bet placement.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
There\r\nare 3 different spread (or handicapping) formats:
\r\n\r\n2-way Spread: Team A (-7.5) vs\r\nTeam B (+7.5)
\r\n\r\n· \r\nTeam\r\nA is given a -7.5 point “handicap” in the game. For a bet to be won, Team A\r\nmust win the game by more points than the listed spread (i.e., 8 points or\r\nmore).
\r\n\r\n· \r\nTeam\r\nB is given a +7.5 point advantage in the game. For the bet to win, Team B must\r\neither win the game outright or not lose by more points than their listed\r\nadvantage (i.e., lose by 7 points or less).
\r\n\r\n· \r\nIn\r\nthe case the spread/line is a whole number (e.g., 7.0), the wager is refunded\r\nin the event that the game ends in a tie when taking the spread into account.\r\nFor example, Team A has a spread of -7.0 and wins the game by exactly 7 points,\r\n(e.g., 27-20), the wagers will be refunded. Likewise, if the patron places a\r\nwager on Team B at +7.0 and Team B loses by exactly 7 points, the wager is\r\nrefunded.

3-way\r\nHandicap (primarily betting on Soccer): Team A (-2) Draw (Exactly 2) Team B\r\n(+2)
\r\n\r\n· \r\nTeam\r\nA is given a 2 goal “handicap” in a game. For the bet to be won, Team A must\r\nwin the game by a bigger margin than the listed handicap i.e., 3 goals or\r\nmore).
\r\n\r\n· \r\nTie\r\n(or Draw) would be the victorious outcome should the game end up with exactly\r\nthe listed margin (i.e., match ends with results such as 2-0, 3-1 or 4-2).
\r\n\r\n· \r\nTeam\r\nB is given a 2 goal advantage in the game. For the bet to be won, Team B must\r\neither win the game outright, the game finish in a draw or not lose by a margin\r\nequal or bigger than their listed advantage (i.e., lose by a maximum of 1\r\ngoal).
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Asian\r\nHandicap (primarily betting on Soccer): Team A (-1.75) vs Team B (+1.75)
\r\n\r\n· \r\nTeam\r\nA is given a -1.75 goal handicap in the game. This means that the stake is\r\ndivided into 2 equal bets and placed on the outcomes -1.5 and -2.0. For the bet\r\nto be fully paid out at the listed odds, Team A must win the game with a bigger\r\nmargin than both of their listed handicaps (i.e., a margin of 3 goals or more).\r\nIf Team A wins with only a 2 goal margin, the bet will be considered partially\r\nwon with a full payout on the -1.5 part of the bet and a refund on the -2.0\r\nside since the outcome on that part of the bet would be considered a “tie”.\r\nShould the game result in any other outcome, including a Team A victory with\r\nonly a 1 goal margin, the whole wager would be lost.
\r\n\r\n· \r\nTeam\r\nB is given a +1.75 goal advantage in the game. This means that the stake is\r\ndivided into 2 equal bets and placed on the outcomes +1.5 and +2.0. For the bet\r\nto be fully paid out at the listed odds, Team B must either win the game\r\noutright, finish the game in a tie (draw) or not lose by a margin equal or\r\nbigger than any of their listed advantages (i.e., lose by only a maximum of 1\r\ngoal). If Team B loses by exactly 2 goals, the bet will be considered partially\r\nlost with a refund on the -2.0 part of the bet and a loss on the -1.5 part of\r\nthe bet. Should the game result in any outcome which results in a defeat of\r\nTeam B with a margin of 3 or more goals, the whole stake would be lost.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Alternative\r\nlines/spreads (also known as Teasers)
\r\n\r\n· \r\nA\r\n“Teaser” is where the patron can “buy” additional points at less favorable odds\r\nthan the main spread of any particular game. For example: the main line may be\r\nPhoenix -3 at odds -110, but the patron wants to bet Phoenix -1.5 points. The\r\nodds given in this example might instead be -150.
\r\n\r\n· \r\nDesert\r\nDiamond might offer several different spreads/handicap lines on any given game.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
12) \r\n“Double\r\nChance” is where it is possible to bet simultaneously on two (partial or\r\ndefinite) outcomes of a game or event, typically in a 3-way Moneyline bet (or “1X2”\r\nbet). The options are: 1X, 12 and X2 with “1”, “X” and “2” as defined in the\r\nGeneral Betting Rules, Section B, Paragraph 2, Clause 3.

Clause 13.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
14) \r\nAn\r\n“Each Way” bet (aka EW) refers to a bet where the chosen selection must either\r\nWin or Place within the payout terms. The bet is divided in two parts (the “Win”\r\npart and the “Place” part) of an equal stake. Settlement of such bets will take\r\ninto account the applicable rules governing the “Win” and “Place” bets, namely\r\nthe Sport Specific Rules, Section C, as well as the General Betting\r\nRules, Section B, Paragraph 5, Clause 14.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
15) \r\n“Goal\r\nminutes” is where it is possible to bet on the sum of the minutes when the\r\ngoals have been scored (primarily Soccer). When settling such bets, goals\r\nscored in injury time of both halves are to be considered as having been scored\r\nin the 45th minute in case the goal was scored in the first half injury time and\r\nthe 90th minute in case the goal was scored in the second half injury time. Own\r\ngoals will not count towards the settlement of individual player’s “goal\r\nminutes”.
\r\n\r\n1) \r\n “Head-to-Heads”\r\nor Fantasy/Virtual “Matches” are implicit match-ups where the performances of\r\ntwo or more participants/teams which are not directly playing each other in the\r\nsame match/event/round are compared. Settlement will be based on the number of\r\ntimes each participant records a predefined occurrence (e.g., goals) in the\r\nrespective match. The following criteria will be used to determine the\r\nsettlement of these type of offerings:
\r\n\r\na. \r\nUnless\r\nspecifically stated, the bets refer to the next official match/event/round (as\r\napplicable) that the listed participants/teams are scheduled to take part in.

\r\n\r\nc. \r\nResults\r\nfor these offers will only consider occurrences deriving from the actual play.\r\nResults attributable to walk-overs, as well as other decisions as specified in\r\nclauses 2, 3 and 4 of the General Betting Rules, Section B, Paragraph 5,\r\nwill not be taken into consideration.
\r\n\r\nd. \r\nShould\r\nthe criteria be inconclusive in determining the outcome for these offers, the\r\nfollowing criteria will be progressively referenced to settle the offering:
\r\n\r\n(i) the applicable Sport Specific Rules, Section\r\nC; and
\r\n\r\n(ii) Result Settlement rules as listed in the General\r\nBetting Rules, Section B, Paragraph 5.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Bets\r\nwill be settled as void should it still be impossible to determine a winning\r\noutcome.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\n“Grand\r\nSalami” is where it is possible to bet on the total number of listed\r\noccurrences (e.g., Total Goals, Total Runs) happening in a collection of games/events\r\non a specified round/day/match day. All related games/events must be completed\r\nfor bets to stand except for those the outcomes of which have been decided\r\nprior to the abandonment and could not possibly be changed regardless of future\r\nevents, which will be settled according to the decided outcome.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\nOver/Under\r\nbets on classification of participants in performances/events must be\r\ninterpreted as follows: “Over” means a worse or lower position while “Under”\r\nmeans a better or higher position. Example: A bet on a player’s classification\r\nin a tournament with an Over/Under line 2.5 will be settled as Under if the\r\nplayer classifies first or second. All other placements will be settled as\r\nOver.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4) \r\nBets\r\non “Quarter / Half / Period X” refer to the result/score achieved in the\r\nrelevant timeframe and does not include any other points/goals/events tallied\r\nfrom other parts of the game/event/match. Bets on this market will be declared\r\nvoid should the game be played in a format where it is impossible to determine\r\nan outcome for the timeframes specified in the offer.

Should the listed score not be reached within the stipulated\r\ntimeframe (if any), all bets will be declared void, unless odds for such\r\neventuality have been published within the market.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
7) \r\nBets\r\non “Touchdown X Scorer”, “Winner of Point X” and similar offers refer to the\r\nteam/participant scoring/winning the listed occurrence. For the settlement of\r\nthese offers, no reference to events happening prior to the listed occurrence\r\nwill be taken into consideration.

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
8) \r\nBets\r\nreferring to the happening of a particular occurrence in a pre-defined time\r\norder, such as “Next Team to receive penalty minutes” or “First Card” will be\r\nsettled as void should it not be possible, without any reasonable doubt, to\r\ndecide the winning outcome, for example in case of players from different teams\r\nwhich are shown a card in the same interruption of play.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
9) “To\r\nscore first and win” refer to the listed team/participant being the first to\r\nregister any scoring in the game and going on to win the game. Should there be\r\nno scoring in the game, all bets will be settled as void.

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
13) \r\nAny\r\nreference to “Injury Time” refers to the amount displayed by the designated\r\nofficial and not to the actual amount played.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
14) \r\nSettlement\r\nof bets on offers such as “Most Valuable Player”, “Man of the Match,” etc. will\r\nbe based on the competition’s organizer’s decision, unless otherwise stated.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
15) \r\nSettlement\r\nof bets which make reference to terms such as “go-ahead scorer” or “decisive\r\ngoal” will be settled based on the scorer of the points/run/goal that at the\r\nend of the game/match/tie (as applicable) proves to be the one that has\r\nproduced an unassailable lead, following which any further points/runs/goals\r\nwould prove to be irrelevant towards the final outcome.

In case that no more\r\nchanges are happening between the time the bet is placed and the last league event\r\n(excluding Playoffs, Playouts, Postseason, etc.), the bets placed after the\r\nlast Managerial change (if any) will be void, unless a suitable option has been\r\noffered for betting. Soccer markets will consider and settle accordingly, any\r\ninterim/caretaker Head Coach/Manager who since the last Managerial change has led\r\nthe team for 10 consecutive games.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
19) \r\nOffers\r\nreferring to which team/participant will achieve a particular accomplishment\r\nagainst another team/participant (e.g., Next team to beat Team X), as well as\r\noffers which refer to the classification on a certain date, will stand and be\r\nsettled regardless of any eventual event changes and number of games/rounds\r\nplayed.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
20) \r\nSettlement\r\nof offers referring to which team/participant will be the first to achieve a\r\nparticular accomplishment against other team(s)/participant(s) (e.g., Team to\r\nscore first on Gameday X) will be based upon the timeframe in the respective game/match\r\nin which the feat has been accomplished. For example, Team A plays on Thursday and\r\nscore their first touchdown in the 13th minute of play while Team B plays on\r\nSunday and score their first touchdown after 5 minutes of play, then Team B\r\nwill be settled as winner.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\n
Settlement\r\nof these offers will be based on the following criteria in the listed order:
\r\n\r\n1. Unless specifically stated, the offer refers\r\nonly to the listed day(s) and/or next official game/match/event/round (as\r\napplicable) in which the listed participants/teams are scheduled to take part\r\nat the time the offer is published;
\r\n\r\n2. Results settled as\r\nper respective Sport Specific Rules, Section C. All related events must\r\nbe completed as scheduled within the applicable timeframes for bets to stand\r\nunless any other outcome in the offer would incontrovertibly determine the\r\noutcome of the offer in a way that completion (or lack of thereof) of the other\r\nevents listed in the offer would not influence the outcome of the offer. Such\r\nmarkets will be settled according to the already determined outcomes;
\r\n\r\n3. Unless explicitly stated within the offer,\r\nresult settlement will only take into account occurrences deriving from the\r\nactual play. Results attributable to walk-overs, protests, changes to the first\r\nofficial result, etc. will not be taken into consideration. Stakes will be\r\nrefunded should it be impossible to determine a winning outcome in accordance\r\nwith the respective Sport Specific Rules, Section C;
\r\n\r\n4. All connotations related to the offer must be\r\nfully and unquestionably complied with for the bet to be deemed as winning,\r\nregardless of any possible conflict with the Sport Specific Rules, Section C,\r\nor with any potential interpretation based on previous or current presentation\r\nof offers related to events in that particular sport and the way these are\r\nnormally presented in Desert Diamond. Where applicable, should the offer\r\ninclude any outcome the result of which ties exactly the chosen Total (Over/Under)\r\nor Spread (aka Push), this will not be considered as having accomplished the\r\nlisted occurrence and will result in the bet being settled as Lost.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
22) \r\nAlthough\r\nDesert Diamond takes reasonable precautions to ensure a superior user\r\nexperience, the markets might fluctuate in such a way that, at any given point\r\nin time, these markets do not represent an enhanced value comparable to related\r\nbet offers currently present on the Site. All bets remain valid regardless of\r\nthese eventual fluctuations.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
23) \r\n During\r\nselected events, Desert Diamond will provide users with functionality to place\r\nbets combining outcomes and occurrences from the same event (aka Intra-Event\r\nCombinations), either through pre-established combinations (“Prebuilt Parlay”) present on the Site (excluding\r\nEnhanced Multiples, Boosted Odds, etc. for which the General Betting Rules, Section\r\nB, Paragraph 3, Clause 21, apply) or through the BetBuilder functionality.\r\nSuch functionality is only present at Desert Diamond’s sole discretion and\r\nwithout prejudice to related contingencies as described in the Conditions of\r\nAgreement, Section A, Paragraph 5, Clause 4. Settlement will be based on\r\nthe respective Sport Specific Rules, Section C. All related occurrences\r\nmust be fully accomplished for a bet to be considered as having happened and\r\neventually paid out at the odds struck. Stakes will be refunded if any part of\r\nthe combination is settled as void. Where applicable, should the combination\r\nfeature any outcome the result of which ties exactly the chosen Totals (Over/Under)\r\nor Spread (aka Push), such part of the combination will be removed from\r\nsettlement calculation and bets will be paid out taking into consideration only\r\nthe other parts of the combination.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
24) \r\n“Teaser+”\r\nallows the user the possibility to allocate the same pre-set number of points\r\nto all outcomes present in a parlay (combination) containing Spreads\r\n(Handicaps), Totals (Over/Under) or a combination of both. Example: User\r\ncombines NFL Team X +6.5 points in a parlay with Over 41 points in the NFL game\r\nbetween Team Y and Team Z. By choosing the “Teaser+ Football 6 points” option,\r\nthe lines and odds get recalculated into a parlay featuring Team X +12.5 points\r\n(previously +6.5), combined with Over 35 points (previously Over 41). Should\r\nany part of a “Teaser+” bet be settled as void (push), that particular selection will be excluded from the parlay\r\nand the computation of odds/payout will be re-adjusted accordingly.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
25) Bets\r\nreferring to “Rest of the game” or similar will consider only outcomes and\r\noccurrences obtained from the time of bet placement until the end of the listed\r\ntimeframe, thus disregarding any occurrences registered before the time the bet\r\nwas placed and accepted.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
26) \r\nBets\r\non specific timeframes/intervals (e.g., game result between 60:00-89:59) will\r\nconsider only outcomes and occurrences accumulated during the specified\r\ntimeframe/interval. Settlement will not take into account any other\r\npoints/goals/events tallied from other parts of the game/event/match outside\r\nthe specified timeframe/interval, including stoppage/injury time, unless\r\nspecified.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\nIn\r\nin-game (or live) betting, it is possible to combine up to twelve (12) different\r\noffers on a single ticket as a parlay bet. Based on these twelve offers, patrons\r\ncan choose their own number of singles, doubles, trebles, etc. All\r\nselected games/offers in a parlay must be included in the ticket and no other\r\nmultiple options which exclude 1 or more games/matches/offers are available.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\nDesert\r\nDiamond reserves the right to limit the number of combinations due to what is\r\nknown as outcome related contingencies, as defined in the Conditions of\r\nAgreement, Section A, Paragraph 5, Clause 4, and other factors, solely\r\nat its own discretion.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4) \r\nIt\r\nis possible to include one or several games as “bankers” which means that the\r\nselected games/events will be included in all parlay tickets.

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
12) \r\nFor\r\ndisplay purposes, when necessary, the second digit after the decimal point of\r\nthe odds is shown as rounded up in the patron’s ticket or bet history to the\r\nnearest decimal number. The payout will, however, be affected based on the\r\nactual odds multiplied by the stake, disregarding the aforementioned rounding.
\r\n\r\n1) \r\nWhen\r\nsettling results, Desert Diamond takes reasonable steps to use information obtained\r\nfirsthand (during or exactly after the event has been concluded), through TV\r\ntransmissions, streaming (web-based and through other sources), and official\r\nsites. Should the required information be omitted from firsthand viewing and/or\r\nofficial sources, or if there is an obvious Error in the information included\r\nin the sources above, the settlement of the bet offer will be based on other\r\npublic sources.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Unless\r\na clear and verifiable Error is noted in the first official result, settlement\r\nof bets will not include any changes deriving from and/or attributable to, but\r\nnot limited to: disqualifications, penalizations, protests, sub-judice results\r\nand/or successive changes to the official result after the event has been\r\ncompleted and a result has been announced, even preliminarily.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\nSettlement\r\nof markets held over more than 1 round/stage (e.g., Season Bets) will only\r\nconsider amendments effecting bets which settlement has not been decided yet.\r\nSuch measures must be announced by the governing association before the last\r\nscheduled round/stage will be considered. Any changes effected after this date\r\nor referring to bets which have already been settled based on events happening\r\nduring the event/competition, will not be considered.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
a. \r\nUnless\r\notherwise specified within the offer, implied by the official competition rules\r\nor announced beforehand as being the official format for that particular event,\r\nany changes from the default sport/event/competition format that result in\r\nDesert Diamond offering odds/lines/totals which are incongruent with the\r\nrevised playing format will result in the voiding of the bets effected by the\r\nformat change.
\r\n\r\nb. \r\nOffers\r\nwhere the format change does not preclude the organizing association from\r\ndeclaring a winner (e.g., Season winner), regardless of whether there will be a\r\ncontinuation of play or not, revised length of season/competition, etc., will\r\nbe settled according to the result issued by the governing association provided\r\nthe result is issued as per the timeframes listed below and is congruent to the\r\nodds/lines/totals available at time of offer publishing.
\r\n\r\nc. \r\nThe\r\nfollowing settlement provisions apply in such cases:
\r\n\r\n\r\n(i) \r\nShould\r\nthe governing association declare a relevant outcome within 3 months from the\r\nlast game played before the interruption (be it final classification,\r\ncancellation or intentions to resume play), markets will be determined\r\naccordingly;
\r\n\r\n\r\n(ii) \r\nIn\r\ncase no applicable official communication/result is issued within 3 months from\r\nthe last game played before the interruption, markets will be settled in\r\naccordance with the last classification/rankings available, regardless of\r\nnumber of games played/current stage/phase of the competition;
\r\n\r\n\r\n(iii) \r\nMarkets\r\nwhich refer to whether a team/participant will reach a subsequent phase of the\r\ncompetition (e.g., Playoffs) will be settled as void should there be any\r\nchanges to the format/number of participants scheduled to contest that\r\nparticular phase or that particular phase is not played at all, unless an\r\noutcome based on the market connotations at time of bet publishing has already\r\nbeen determined and the change in number of applicable games bears no influence\r\nthe outcome of the offer;
\r\n\r\n\r\n(iv) \r\nMarkets\r\nwhich odds are dependent/based on a full schedule of games being played (e.g.,\r\nOver/Under Wins in the Regular Season/Points in the League) will be declared\r\nvoid should the number of games played end up being different than originally\r\nscheduled at the time of bet publishing, unless an outcome has already been\r\ndetermined and the change in number of applicable games bears no influence the\r\noutcome of the offer.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\nOccurrences\r\nwhich have not been sanctioned and/or acknowledged by the game/match/event\r\nofficials (e.g., overturned touchdowns) will not be taken into account towards\r\nthe settlement of the bet. As a general rule, and unless the offer specifies\r\notherwise, Desert Diamond will settle offers based on the exact time that the\r\nflow of play was interrupted/resumed (as applicable) by the occurrence in\r\nquestion (e.g., ball went out of play for a throw-in/goal kick or crosses the\r\nline for a goal), or play is interrupted by the referee, whichever is earliest.\r\nBets referring to the accumulation of a particular occurrence (e.g., Total points\r\nscored and/or the execution of a particular action) will require the occurrence\r\nto actually take place during the time interval specified (e.g., the 2-point\r\nbasket completed). In such instances, should the occurrence be only awarded and\r\nnot taken, it will not be considered for settlement purposes.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4) \r\nAll\r\nbet offers related to games/matches/events which do not take place at all or\r\nare awarded a result through a walk-over decision will be declared void.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
5) \r\nIn\r\ncase of an abandoned event, all bet offers that have been decided prior to the abandonment\r\nand could not possibly be changed regardless of future events will be settled\r\naccording to the decided outcome. Should the abandoned event not resume within\r\n12 hours of its start time, all pending offers related to the event will be\r\nsettled as void.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
6) \r\nIn\r\ncase an event is abandoned and is scheduled to restart from the beginning, all\r\nbets placed before the initial game which could not be settled through the\r\noutcomes deriving from the play prior to abandonment will be declared void\r\nregardless of whether or when the game is continued.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
7) \r\nUnless\r\notherwise stated either in the Sport Specific Rules, Section C, or in\r\nconjunction with the bet offer, specific events forming part of\r\ntournaments/competitions which are not held, get postponed and/or are rescheduled\r\nfor a time/date longer than 12 hours from the last scheduled time issued by the\r\ngoverning association due to bad weather, crowd trouble or similar scenarios\r\nwill be declared void with the following exceptions where bets will remain\r\nvalid:
\r\n\r\na. \r\nEvents\r\nfor which starting times have not been officially confirmed yet by the\r\ngoverning association at time of bet placement;
\r\n\r\nb. \r\nEvents\r\nwhich are moved due to scheduling conflicts/TV broadcasts but remain scheduled\r\nto be played within the same gameday/game week/round (as applicable) and the\r\nchange does not change the order of official games/events for any of the\r\nparticipants in the offer;
\r\n\r\nc. \r\nEvents\r\nfor which start times are anticipated (brought forward) but remain scheduled to\r\nbe played within the same gameday/game week/round (as applicable) and, without\r\nprejudice to past-posting and similar occurrences as defined in the Conditions\r\nof Agreement, Section A, Paragraph 5, Clause 6, the change does not modify\r\nthe order of official game/event for any of the participants in the offer.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
For\r\nthe avoidance of doubt, the definition of same gameday/game week/round is to be\r\ninterpreted as the order of events as dictated by the governing association\r\nwith each specific game representing a gameday/game week/round. Should this\r\norder not be upheld and the sequence of events change in a way that games against\r\nother teams get scheduled in between so much that the listed event ceases to be\r\nthe next official commitment from that particular tournament/league/competition\r\nfor all teams involved, that will be considered as not part of the same gameday/game\r\nweek/round and offers will be declared void. The above does not apply to Season\r\nbets which will remain valid assuming the tournament/league/competition is held\r\nand decided during the season/year it refers to, regardless of any eventual\r\ndate changes. In cases of Playoffs series or other series of games which are\r\nscheduled to confront 2 teams over 2 or more games, any rescheduling of a\r\nsingle game will be considered as being part of the same gameday regardless of\r\nthe length of the rescheduling, assuming the order of Home and Away events in\r\nthe series is not modified and the listed event takes place within the series. Otherwise,\r\nbets will be declared void.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
8) \r\nIn\r\ncases of events which have not been completed before their natural conclusion,\r\nand a result is issued through a decision by the association not more than 12\r\nhours from the event’s start, Desert Diamond will use the issued decision as\r\nthe official result for the following bet offers: Moneyline, Tie No Bet and\r\nDouble Chance. Notwithstanding that, the issued decision does not change the\r\noutcome of the bet offers at the time of the abandonment. In that case, the\r\nstakes will be refunded. All offers referring to the tallying of particular occurrences\r\n(e.g., Total Points, Spreads, etc.) will be declared void except for those the\r\noutcomes of which have been decided prior to the abandonment and could not\r\npossibly be changed regardless of future events, which will be settled\r\naccording to the decided outcome.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
9) \r\nAll\r\nbet offers related to uncompleted games/matches/events where the official\r\ngoverning body is not previously acknowledged will be declared as void unless\r\nat least 90% of the stipulated Regular/Full Time (see the General Betting\r\nRules, Section B, Paragraph 1, Clause 1) is played. Should the game/match/event\r\nbe abandoned after 90% has been completed, the settlement will be based on the\r\ncurrent score at the time when the game/match/event was stopped.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
10) \r\nSettlement\r\nof bet offers, such as, but not limited to, stolen bases, errors, sacks, shots,\r\nshots on target, ball possession, assists, rebounds, etc., will be based\r\naccording to the definition with which the official governing body issues the\r\nstatistics. Desert Diamond will\r\nnot consider inconsistent personal interpretation of such terms.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
11) \r\nWhen\r\nplacing “Outright” or “Place” bets, no stakes will be refunded on participants\r\nthat are not participating or withdrawing from an event prior to or during the\r\nevent unless otherwise stated. Desert Diamond reserves the right, at its own\r\ndiscretion, to apply Tattersalls Rule 4, as explained in the General Betting\r\nRules, Section B, Paragraph 6, on any competition and this will be\r\nstated in correlation to the bet offer and/or the relevant Sport Specific Rule,\r\nSection C.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
12) \r\nNo\r\nrefunds of bets will apply, even if the winning outcome of a game/match/event\r\nis a participant/outcome that has not been listed for betting purposes. On all\r\nbet offers, the patron has the possibility to ask for a price on a non-listed\r\nparticipant/outcome. Desert Diamond reserves the right, at its own discretion,\r\nto decline such requests.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
13) \r\nIn\r\ncase a participant is disqualified/withheld/banned from taking part in a\r\nsubsequent part/phase of an event/competition, the disqualification will be\r\nconsidered to have taken place at the time of the participant’s removal from\r\nthe event. No changes will be made to previous results, regardless of any\r\nmodifications due to actions. Bets placed after the disqualified participant\r\nlast took part in the event will be declared void.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
14) \r\nIf\r\ntwo or more participants share the applicable finishing positions and no odds\r\nhave been offered for a tied outcome, the payout will be calculated by dividing\r\nthe odds by the number of participants sharing those certain positions and are\r\nsettled accordingly. The payout will always be at least equal to the wager\r\namount, except in cases of “Head-to-Heads” (see the General Betting Rules, Section\r\nB, Paragraph 2, Clause 7 and Section B, Paragraph 5, Clause.19).
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
15) \r\nIn\r\n“Group Betting” (aka “Best of X”), all listed participants must start the event\r\nfor bets to stand.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
16) \r\nIn\r\n“Group Betting” (aka “Best of X”), at least one participant from the selection\r\nlist must successfully complete the event for bets to stand. Should that not be\r\nthe case, and the governing association does not follow specific tiebreaking\r\ncriteria, the bets will be declared void.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
17) In\r\na “Head-to-Head” between two or three participants, all listed participants\r\nmust start the particular round/event to which the bet refers for bets to be\r\nconsidered valid.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
18) \r\nIn\r\na “Head-to-Head” between two participants, all bets will be refunded if both\r\nparticipants share the same position/score or are eliminated at the same stage\r\nof the competition, unless the governing association follows specific tiebreaking\r\nprocedures, in which case these bets will be deemed valid.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
19) \r\nIn\r\na “Head-to-Head” between three participants and more than one winning outcome,\r\nthe odds will be divided by the outcomes sharing the winning position, regardless\r\nof whether the net outcome is lower than the patron’s stake.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
20) \r\nIf\r\na “Head-to-Head” is offered between different rounds/stages, all participants\r\nmust take part in the upcoming round/stage for bets to be valid. Should any\r\nparticipant listed in the offer not take any subsequent part, bets placed from\r\nafter the last time the participant was active in the event will be declared\r\nvoid.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
21) \r\nUnless\r\nspecifically stated, whenever the organizing association deems it fit to\r\ninclude any necessary rounds, games, matches, or series of games/matches (e.g.,\r\nPlayoffs, Playouts, Postseason) following the end of the so-called Regular\r\nSeason in order to determine the classification, league winners, promotion/relegation,\r\netc., Desert Diamond will take into account the results and outcomes deriving\r\nfrom these games for settlement purposes of bets referring to the final league\r\nclassification, promotion, relegation, etc. For example, seasonal bets on the\r\nteam winning the NHL will refer to the Stanley Cup Winners.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
22) \r\nOffers\r\nwhich confront against each other the performances of two or more individuals/teams\r\nover a stipulated timeframe/competition will only be settled based on the\r\nresult of the listed participants, disregarding all other participants in the\r\nsame competition/event.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
23) \r\nUnless\r\nspecifically stated, all offers referring to a single player’s performance in a\r\nspecific domestic league (e.g., Total Points Scored by Player X in League Y) or\r\n“Head-to-Head” bet offers involving two players’ performances in domestic leagues\r\nwill not take into account those events happening during eventual Playoffs/Playouts/Postseason\r\nor any other games, or series of games, which would happen after the Regular\r\nSeason.\r\nFor the avoidance of doubt, Canadian teams, as pertains to NHL, NBA, MLB and\r\nMLS, are considered domestic.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
24) \r\nOffers\r\nrelated to a total amount of occurrences/events scored/tallied by a particular\r\nteam, either in a single team performance in a specific league (e.g., Total\r\nRuns Scored by Team X), “Head-to-Head” bet offers involving two teams’\r\nperformances in leagues (e.g., Most Penalty Minutes in UK Premier League - Team\r\nY vs Team Z), or a cumulative league performance (e.g., Team to receive Most Penalties\r\nin NHL), will not take into account those events happening during eventual Playoffs/Playouts/Postseason\r\nor any other games, or series of games, which would happen after the so-called\r\nRegular Season, unless otherwise specified.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
25) \r\nIn\r\na single player performance bet offer in a specific league (e.g., Total Runs Scored\r\nby Player X in MLB) or “Head-to-Head” bet offers involving two players’\r\nperformances in leagues, unless an outcome has already been achieved, stakes\r\nwill be refunded should any of the following occurrences happen to any relevant\r\nparticipant: (i) the\r\nparticipant is not part of the gameday line up or squad for the team/club\r\nthey are eligible for at time of bet placement in 50% or more of the remaining\r\napplicable games for any reason, (ii) the participant does not take part in at\r\nleast another game after the bet has been placed, or (iii) the participant totals\r\nthe same amount as the other player, unless a tie/draw option has been offered.\r\nOther sports-specific conditions may apply, please refer to the Sport Specific Rules,\r\nSection C.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
26) \r\nIn\r\na single player performance bet offer in a specific event (e.g., Total Runs by\r\nPlayer X in Game 1 of World Series) or “Head-to-Head” bet offers involving two\r\nplayers’ performances in specific events, should any of the following\r\noccurrences happen to either of the participants in the selection list, the\r\nbets will be considered void: (i) the participant does not take part at all in\r\nthe event (ii) the participant does not take part in at least another game after\r\nthe bet has been placed, or (iii) the participant totals the same amount as the\r\nother participant, unless a draw/tie option has been offered.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
27) \r\nDuring\r\nspecific events Desert Diamond might decide to offer for betting a reduced\r\nselection of participants and might also include betting options such as “any\r\nother”, “the field”, or similar. This option includes all unlisted participants\r\nexcept for the ones mentioned specifically as available.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
28) \r\nOffers\r\nthat make specific reference to a participant’s/participants’ performance(s) in\r\na particular event (e.g., Player X vs The Field) are to be considered void if\r\nthe mentioned participant(s) do(es) not take part in the competition.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
29) \r\nAny\r\nform of a qualification ahead of the main event is considered to be a valid\r\npart of that competition. Thus, any participant who is eliminated at\r\nqualification stage will be considered losing to anyone that is pre-qualified\r\nor is successful in the qualification part.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
30) \r\nBet\r\noffers which originally require participant(s) to compete in two or more\r\nstages/legs to advance into a subsequent phase/round of a competition will\r\nremain valid regardless of any postponement/ movement of the actual game dates,\r\nassuming the game(s) actually takes place within the frame of the competition.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
31) \r\nA\r\nbet on a “To Qualify” market originally requiring just one stage/leg to advance\r\nto a subsequent phase/round of a competition (including any eventual prolongations/additional\r\ngames, e.g., replays) will be declared void if a game is not decided within\r\nmore than 12 hours of its supposed start time.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
32) \r\nShould\r\nan event be moved from its originally announced venue and/or have its playing\r\nsurface changed, this will not be treated as a cause for the offers to be\r\nvoided unless (i) the Sport Specific Rules dictate such, and/or (ii) the new\r\nlocation in which the event takes place is the habitual “Home” stadium, field, pitch,\r\ncourt, ice, etc. of either participant involved in the game, except as dictated\r\nbelow. As a general principle, Desert Diamond will refer to the Home Team\r\n(host) and the Away Team (visitor) in accordance with the definition issued by\r\nthe governing association for that particular game/competition. Bets on games\r\nplayed on so-called “Neutral” fields, pitches, courts, stadiums, ice, etc. will\r\nremain valid regardless of whether such information has been detailed in the\r\nbet offer and/or the positioning of the teams on the betting board/display. In\r\nthose cases where there is a discrepancy between the positioning of the\r\nteams/participants on the official website and their placement on the betting\r\nboard/display, and such discrepancy causes a significant effect on the odds of\r\nthe game/match/competition, Desert Diamond will void the affected bets. Such\r\neventuality is contemplated only in cases where the discrepancy has a material\r\nand visible effect on the odds. For example, in cases of swapped Home and Away Teams\r\nin an Ice Hockey game, Desert Diamond will void the bets. Nevertheless, Desert\r\nDiamond will consider valid bets placed on events where the so-called\r\nhome-field advantage is not considered and in cases of neutral venues. Examples\r\nof such cases include, but are not limited to, tennis tournaments, MMA fights,\r\nsingles competitions in general, or specific events such as the final/late\r\nstages of team competitions being held in pre-established venues, like the\r\nSuper Bowl, the NCAA Final 4 or the Italian Football Cup Final, even if the\r\nlocation can be deemed as a potential customary “Home” pitch for either of the\r\nteams involved. In such cases, events will be considered as being played in\r\nneutral venues and all bets stand regardless of the positioning of the\r\nteams/participants on the official website and their placement on the Site.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
33) \r\nInformation\r\nreferring to gender of the teams, age groups and youth teams, as well as\r\nvarious definitions of reserve teams (e.g., B and C teams), is to be treated as\r\nsupplementary information. The inclusion (or lack of) and correctness of such\r\ninformation will not be treated as sufficient cause for the voiding of the\r\noffers related to the game/match/event, provided this does not cause an obvious\r\ninconsistency in odds offered.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
34) Although\r\nDesert\r\nDiamond takes reasonable precautions to assure an accurate rendition of all\r\ncomponents involved in a bet offer, certain denominations could be represented\r\ndifferently due to different interpretations deriving from adaptations into\r\nanother language. Such linguistic incongruence will not be treated as\r\nsufficient cause for the voiding of the offers related to the game/match/event,\r\nto the extent that it does not create confusion with other participants or\r\ncause an obvious inconsistency in odds offered. The same applies for\r\ndenominations referring to events, team names, sponsor names, etc.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
35) \r\nIn\r\ncase of bets where there is reference to timeframes, they should be interpreted\r\nin the following way: “within the first 30 minutes” will include anything\r\nhappening until 0 hours 29 minutes and 59 seconds; “between 10 to 20 minutes”\r\nwill include anything happening from 10 minutes and 0 seconds until 19 minutes\r\nand 59 seconds, etc.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
36) \r\nUnless\r\nlisted either in conjunction with the bet offer or in the Sport Specific Rules,\r\nSection C, bets referring to game/event/match duration which include\r\nnon-full integer digits (e.g., 88.5 minutes or X.5 rounds) require the full\r\ncompletion of the full integer of the listed duration for them to be considered\r\nwon. For example, a bet on Over/Under 88.5 minutes in a Tennis match will be\r\nsettled as Over only if at least 89 full minutes are completed.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
37) \r\nDesert\r\nDiamond acknowledges that some bets might require the rounding-up of\r\npercentages, units or other criteria which are decisive for the settlement of\r\nthe bet. Should that be the case, Desert Diamond reserves the right to adjust\r\nand settle accordingly.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
38) \r\nAny\r\nreference to goals scored by specific players will not count if they are\r\ndefined as ‘own goals’ (scored in their own goals) unless otherwise stated.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
39) \r\nAny\r\nreference to confederation, nationality or similar will be subject to the\r\ndefinition by the governing association.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
40) \r\nAny\r\nmedals won by a team/nation per competition will count as one (1) single medal\r\nregardless of the number of team members (e.g., Olympic gymnastics team\r\nall-around gold medal).
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
41) \r\nOffers\r\non whether certain individuals will be occupying a specified position/title/job\r\non a certain date (e.g., Player or Coach to still be with Team Y on Date Z)\r\nrefer to the individual in question to hold (or alternatively to be appointed\r\nin) the listed position uninterruptedly between the time the bet is placed and\r\nthe specified deadline. Should the individual for any reason whatsoever leave\r\nthe position before the specified deadline, the outcome of the bet will be\r\nconsidered as not having happened, even in cases where the individual is\r\nre-appointed/signed again in that same position/title/job and even if on the\r\nspecified deadline the individual is occupying once more that same\r\nposition/title/job to which the bet refers. Settlements will also take into\r\naccount players signed on loan deals.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
42) \r\nAny\r\nbets referring to “breaking” of records require the listed occurrence to be\r\nfully accomplished. Equaling the record will not be considered as having fully\r\naccomplished the feat. Only the listed occurrence will count for settlement\r\npurposes.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
1) \r\nIn\r\nthe event of one non-runner or one non-participant, the odds on the remaining\r\nrunners or remaining participants are reduced in accordance with the so-called\r\nTattersalls Rule 4.

Section C. Sport Specific Rules
\r\n\r\n1) \r\nUnless\r\nstated otherwise, all bets on Football are determined on the basis of the\r\nresult after any overtime or extra time.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\nAll\r\noffers will only be considered valid should there be less than 5 minutes of\r\nscheduled play left in the 4th Quarter/2nd Half, as applicable. Exceptions will\r\nbe made for those outcomes which have been decided prior to early abandonment\r\nand could not possibly be changed regardless of future events, which will be settled\r\naccording to the decided outcome.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\nOffers\r\nreferring to individual player performance in a single game (e.g., Total\r\nPassing Yards Thrown by Player X) or relative performance of 2 individual\r\nplayers during the course of a game (e.g., Will Player X or Player Y throw most\r\nPassing Yards) require all listed individuals to actively play in the\r\napplicable game for the bet(s) to stand.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4) \r\nUnless\r\nspecifically stated or implied in the offer, settlement of Season long (or “future”)\r\nbets will be based on the classifications, definitions and tiebreaking rules as\r\nper NFL.com or the official website of the competition (as applicable).

Bets referring to\r\nevents which have been rescheduled within the same week/round will remain valid\r\nso long as such events are played within the Thursday to Wednesday time period described\r\nabove.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
6) \r\nGameday/Weekly\r\nprops are offers on the performance or outcome of a group of teams or\r\nindividual player performance for games/events over a specified time period (week/round/day/game)\r\n(e.g., Week 3 - Total Points Scored in the AFC, Week 7 - Highest Scoring team\r\nin the NFL, Week 9 - the Player with the most passing yards, etc.). All\r\napplicable game/matches/events (including any rescheduled games that are played\r\nwithin the same game week) must be completed and validated for the specified\r\nweek/gameday/round for bets to stand except for those the outcomes which have\r\nbeen decided prior to the abandonment or change in schedule, and could not\r\npossibly be changed regardless of future events, which will be settled\r\naccording to the decided outcome.

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
7) \r\nSeason\r\nlong bets, including results of Playoff games or other similar events, or particular\r\nteam or player performance will remain valid regardless of possible player\r\ntrades, team movements, name changes, changes of season length or playoff\r\nformat changes during any point in the season.

Any bets placed after any\r\nnews which could potentially reduce the number of events/games a listed player\r\nis eligible to participate within the competition (e.g., injury/transfer/trade\r\nnews), and theoretically alter\r\nthe odds in favor of any particular outcome without the odds having been\r\nadjusted to reflect the current state of the bet, will be declared void.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
9) \r\nBets\r\non Double Result (e.g., “Half Time/Full Time” which predict the outcome at Half\r\nTime combined with the result at the end of the 4th Quarter) will\r\nnot take into account any outcomes in overtime (if applicable).
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Fumbles\r\non exchanges to a running back will be considered as “Run Play”.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
11) \r\nSettlement\r\non offers referring to “Offensive Yards” will be based on the net number of\r\nyards including any sack yardage lost.

12) \r\nOffers\r\nreferring to any team scoring a specified successive number of times unanswered\r\nwill consider scorings tallied during eventual overtime but excludes any PATs\r\n(points after Touchdowns or 2 point conversions).
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
13) \r\n“Team\r\nto call first/next Timeout” offers will not take into consideration any\r\ntimeouts lost through any other means such as failed challenges, coaches\r\nchallenges and/or injuries for settlement purposes.

Turnover on Downs (failed 4th Down\r\nattempt) will also be considered as a “Turnover”. Should a punt be fumbled by\r\nthe receiving team and subsequently recovered by the kicking team, bets will be\r\nsettled as a “Punt”.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
16) \r\nOffers\r\non “if a 1st Down will be made” refer only to the team currently in possession and\r\nachieving such accomplishment. Market will be settled as “YES” should a new set\r\nof “Downs” be achieved either by Run, Pass (including cases where a Touchdown\r\nis scored as a result) or an Automatic 1st Down Penalty. “Safety”, “Field Goal”\r\n(regardless of whether the Field Goal being scored or not), fumbles or any\r\nchange in possession will settle the offer as “NO”. Any Down replayed due to\r\nnon-automatic penalties will not be considered for settlement purposes unless\r\ncommitted with 5 yards or less to go.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
17) \r\nSettlement\r\non which team will gain most Passing/Rushing yards will be based on the gross\r\nnumber of yards thrown/run, including any negative yardage for rushing.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
18) \r\nFor\r\nsettlement purposes, bets on Touchdown scorers require the listed player to be\r\npart of the active roster for that game.

For such eventuality to be considered, a protest must be\r\nattributable to incidents happening exclusively during the event, such as a\r\nline infringement, pushes or a false handover in a relay race, etc. No doping\r\ncases will be considered. The result available at the end of the 24 hours will\r\nbe deemed as binding regardless of any further protests, changes to the\r\nofficial result, etc.

3) \r\nIf\r\ntwo or more participants take part in different heats during a competition, all\r\nHead-To-Head-offers between them will be considered void, unless there is a later stage in the competition that at\r\nleast one of them qualifies for.

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4) \r\nFirst\r\nGoalscorer in the match/1st Quarter - Stakes will be refunded on players who\r\nare not in the starting 21.

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
9) \r\nWhen\r\nsettling offers which relate to the performances of two or more\r\nindividuals/teams over a stipulated timeframe/competition, stages of\r\nelimination within the “Finals” will count for the settlement.

For the calculation of these\r\nsettlements, the minimum number of occurrences which should have been needed to\r\nbring the offer to the natural conclusion will be added as necessary depending\r\non the number of sets which the match is scheduled for. Should this calculation\r\nproduce a situation where no possible variations could affect the outcome of\r\nthe offer, this will be settled as such.

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\nFor\r\nsettlement purposes, in case the match is interrupted for any reason in between\r\nrounds, e.g., retirement before the start of a round, disqualification, or failure\r\nto answer the bell, the fight will be deemed to have finished at the end of the\r\nprevious round.

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
5) \r\nFor\r\nsettlement purposes, betting on rounds or groups of rounds refers to a fighter\r\nto win by KO (Knockout), TKO (Technical Knockout), or disqualification during\r\nthat round or group of rounds. If for any reason, a points decision is awarded\r\nbefore the full number of scheduled rounds is completed, or a boxer is\r\ndisqualified, bets will be settled on the round in which the fight was stopped.\r\nBets which nominate ‘to win on points’ will only be deemed winners if the full\r\nnumber of rounds is completed.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
6) \r\nFor\r\na match to be declared as having been decided by “points” (e.g., the different\r\ndefinition of “decision”), all scheduled rounds must be completed. All other\r\ndecisions (e.g., KO, TKO, withdrawal, disqualification, failure to answer the\r\nbell, clash of heads, low blow, etc.) will be settled as if the boxer has won\r\nthe fight without the need of a decision, aka “before the bell”.

7) \r\nBets\r\nreferring to round/fight duration represents the actual time passed in the\r\nround/fight, as applicable, depending on the scheduled round/fight duration.\r\nFor example, a bet on Over 4.5 Total Rounds in a Boxing fight will be settled\r\nas Over once a minute and a half in the 5th Round has passed.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
8) \r\nAny\r\nconfirmed fight must be completed by 23:59 local time of the following day for\r\nbets to stand. Any changes in venue or location will not be deemed valid\r\ngrounds for voiding of the offers.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
9) \r\nIn\r\noffers where a draw/tie is possible and odds have not been offered for such\r\noutcome, bets will be settled as void should the official result be declared as\r\nsuch. For settlement purposes, fights in which the outcome is declared as\r\neither a “Majority draw” or a “Split draw” are to be considered as a drawn/tied\r\noutcome and offers will be settled accordingly.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
10) \r\nSettlement\r\nof statistics-based offers such as “Boxer X to be knocked down” or similar will\r\nbe settled based on the results declared by the referee and no personal\r\ninterpretation will be considered.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
a. General\r\nCricket Rules
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
1) \r\nIn\r\ncases where no odds have been offered for a tie and the match/offer ends in a\r\ntie, bets would be settled according to the dead heat rule, where the payout\r\nwould be calculated after the odds are divided and multiplied by the stake, regardless\r\nof whether the net payout is lower than the patron’s stake. In competitions\r\nwhere other means are used to determine a winner after a tie (e.g., “Bowl-out”\r\nor “Super Over”) then offers will be settled based on the result after such\r\nprolongations are completed. The only exception to this rule is for “Match Odds”\r\nbetting in Test/First Class/3, 4 or 5 day matches where in the event of a tie\r\n(where both teams have completed two innings each and have the same score) bets\r\non “Match Odds” will be settled as void.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\nFor\r\n“Total Runs Over X” (Over/Under & Odd/Even) betting, “extras” and “penalty\r\nruns” (as per match scorecards) are included for settlement purposes. Bets will\r\nbe void if the over is not completed unless a result has already been\r\ndetermined or the over has reached its “natural conclusion” (e.g., innings\r\nend/declaration). The market refers only to the listed over (e.g., “5th\r\nover” refers to over number 5, i.e., the over directly following over number\r\n4).
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\nFor\r\n“Total Runs Delivery X” (Over/Under & Odd/Even) betting, “extras” (but not “penalty\r\nruns”) as per match scorecard are included for settlement purposes. Deliveries\r\nare counted from the start of the over, and additional deliveries (resulting\r\nfrom “extras”) will be counted consecutively and separately (e.g., if delivery\r\n1 is a wide, the next ball is considered delivery 2).
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4) \r\nFor\r\n“Boundary Over X” (Yes/No) betting, any instance of the ball striking or\r\nclearing the boundary regardless of whether the ball comes off the bat shall be\r\ndeemed a boundary. This includes wides, byes, leg byes & overthrows (e.g.,\r\nany instance of an in play ball that hits or clears the boundary shall be\r\nsettled as yes for that over). 4 runs that are “all run” between the wicket\r\nshall not be counted as a boundary. Bets will be void if the over is not\r\ncompleted unless a result has already been determined or the over has reached its\r\n“natural conclusion” (e.g., innings end, declaration). The market refers only\r\nto the listed over (e.g., “5th Over” refers to over number 5, i.e.,\r\nthe over directly following over number 4).
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
5) \r\nFor\r\n“Wicket Over X” (Yes/No) betting, the over must be completed for bets to stand,\r\nunless a wicket has already fallen or the innings reaches its natural\r\nconclusion (e.g., innings end, declaration).
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
6) \r\nFor\r\n“Total Wides” (Over/Under) betting, settlement will be based on the “Runs”\r\nscored from “Wides” and not the number of “Wides” bowled, e.g., if a single\r\nwide delivery reaches the boundary, it shall count as 5 total wides.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
7) \r\nFor\r\n“Method of Dismissal” betting, bets will be void if either player retires due\r\nto injury or any other reason before the wicket falls or there are no further\r\nwickets.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
8) \r\nFor\r\n“Most Run Outs” betting, settlement will be based on the batting team not the\r\nfielding team, (e.g., run outs count for the team of the player that is\r\ndismissed).
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
9) \r\nFor\r\n“Odd/Even” betting, a ball must be bowled for bets to stand.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
10) \r\nFor\r\nany betting involving “ducks”, a “duck” is defined as when a player is\r\ndismissed for a score of zero runs. Any player not-out for zero runs is not\r\nconsidered a duck.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
11) \r\nFor\r\n“Maiden in Match” betting, a maiden is considered any over bowled with no runs\r\nscored. Only completed overs with zero runs count. A minimum of 1 over must be\r\nbowled for bets to stand. For settlement purposes, leg-byes and byes are not\r\napplied to this bet offer, as per the match scorecard.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
12) \r\nFor\r\nall “4s” betting including but not limited to total 4s, most 4s & player’s\r\ntotal 4s; any “all run” 4s will not count towards the total. Over-throws that\r\nreach the boundary and are awarded to the batsman will be counted. No-balls\r\nthat reach the boundary off the bat and are awarded to the batsman will be\r\ncounted. Leg-byes & byes that reach the boundary are not included. Wides\r\nthat reach the boundary are not included.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
13) \r\nPenalty\r\nruns awarded will be counted towards the over, interval and innings for\r\nsettlement purposes, as per match scorecard. If penalty runs are not awarded to\r\na specific over, they will only count towards innings runs.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
b. Player\r\nCricket Rules
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
1) \r\n“Top\r\nRun Scorer” and “Top Wicket Taker” bets (including all variants by “Home Team”,\r\nAway Team”, “1st Innings” & “2nd Innings”) placed on\r\nany player not in the starting 11 will be declared void. Bets on players who\r\nare selected but do not bat or field will be settled as losers. In the event of\r\na tie, dead heat rules as explained in the Sport Specific Rules, Section C,\r\nParagraph 9(a).1, will apply.
\r\n\r\na) \r\nAdditionally,\r\nfor all limited overs matches the following will apply. Betting\r\nrequires a minimum of 20 overs to be bowled per innings of a One Day match,\r\nunless a team is all-out or the match is completed, or a minimum of 5 overs to\r\nbe bowled per innings of a Twenty 20 match, T10 or Hundred match unless a team\r\nis all-out, or the match is completed
\r\n\r\nb) Additionally,\r\nfor all Test matches & 4/5 day matches the following will apply. Betting\r\nrequires 50 overs to be completed for bets to stand, unless the innings has\r\nreached its natural conclusion (including “Innings declared”).
\r\n\r\nc) All\r\n“Top Wicket Taker” bets will be settled solely on the number of wickets taken\r\nregardless of the number of runs conceded.
\r\n\r\nd) All\r\n“Top Wicket Taker” bets will be void if no wicket is taken by any bowler in\r\nthat innings.
\r\n\r\ne) This\r\nrule excludes any Tournament or Series market as covered in the Sport Specific\r\nRules, Section C, Paragraph 9(e).5.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\n“Man\r\nof the Match/ Player of the Match” bets placed on any player not in the\r\nstarting 11 will be declared void. Bets on players who are selected but do not\r\nbat or bowl will be settled as losers. In the event of a tie, dead heat rules\r\nwill apply as explained in the Sport Specific Rules, Section C, Paragraph 9(a).1.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3)\r\n“Next Man Out” & “First Batsman Dismissed” bets will be settled as void if\r\neither player retires due to injury or any other reason before the wicket falls\r\nor if there are no further wickets. Both named batsmen must be batting at the\r\nfall of the nominated wicket for bets to stand.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4)\r\n“Most Runs” (2-way & 3-way) matchups require that both/all players reach\r\nthe batting crease while a ball is bowled, though it is not necessary they face\r\na ball, nor must the quoted players have batted together, otherwise bets will\r\nbe void. In the event of a tie, if no draw price was offered, dead heat rules\r\nwill apply as explained in the Sport Specific Rules, Section C, Paragraph 9(a).1.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
5)\r\n“Most Wickets” (2-way & 3-way) matchups require that both/all players bowl\r\nat least 1 ball for bets to stand. In the event of a tie, if no draw price was\r\noffered, dead heat rules will apply as explained in the Sport Specific Rules, Section\r\nC, Para 9(a).1.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
6)\r\n“Player Performance” bets placed on any player not in the starting 11 will be\r\ndeclared void. Settlement is based on the following points-based scoring system:\r\n
\r\n\r\n· \r\n1\r\npoint per run scored (batsman only);
\r\n\r\n· \r\n10\r\npoints per catch taken (fielder or wicket keeper only);
\r\n\r\n· \r\n20\r\npoints per wicket (bowler only);
\r\n\r\n· \r\n25\r\npoints per stumping (wicket keeper only).
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Additionally,\r\nfor all limited overs matches, all bets will be declared as void should the\r\nnumber of overs be reduced due to weather (or any other reason) from the\r\nstandard scheduled number of overs in a Twenty 20 match or any other limited\r\novers match. Should the outcome of such offers already be decided before the\r\ninterruption and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such\r\nbets, then these will be settled accordingly.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
7)\r\n“Player to take 5 or more Wickets/Player’s Total Wickets/Player to take a\r\nwicket” bets placed on any player not in the starting 11 will be declared void.\r\nBets will also be void if the player does not bowl a ball.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
8)\r\n“Player to take make a Duck” (Yes/No) bets require that the player reaches the\r\nbatting crease while a ball is bowled, though it is not necessary they face a\r\nball.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
9)\r\nFor “Player to score Fastest 50/Century” betting, settlement is based on the\r\nleast number of balls faced to reach the milestone (either 50 runs or 100\r\nruns). In the event of a tie, dead heat rules will apply as explained in the\r\nSport Specific Rules, Section C, Paragraph 9(a).1.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
10)\r\nFor “Race to X Runs” bets, both players must open the batting for bets to\r\nstand.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
11)\r\n“Player’s Total Runs/Player’s Total 4s/Player’s Total 6s” (Over/Under) betting\r\nrequires that the player reach the batting crease while a ball is bowled,\r\nthough it is not necessary they face a ball. In cases where a batsman’s innings\r\nis ended by weather or bad light, all bets where a result has not been\r\ndetermined will be declared void. A result is deemed to have been determined if\r\na batsman has passed the run total at which the bet was accepted, if a batsman has\r\nbeen dismissed or if an innings completed/declaration made. For example, if a batsman’s\r\nscore stands at 50 “Not-Out” when a game or innings is terminated due to bad\r\nlight or rain, all bets on 50.5 runs will be voided unless the game has reached\r\nits natural conclusion. However, all bets on Over 49.5 Runs will be considered\r\nas winning while bets on Under 49.5 Runs will be settled as losing. Should a\r\nbatsman retire due to injury or any other reason, his score at the end of his\r\nteam’s innings will be considered as the result for that bet. Additionally, for\r\nall limited overs matches, all bets will be declared as void should the number\r\nof overs be reduced due to weather (or any other reason) from the standard\r\nscheduled number of overs in a Twenty 20 match or any other limited overs\r\nmatch. Should the outcome of such offers be already decided before the\r\ninterruption and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such\r\nbets, then these will be settled accordingly.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
12)\r\n“Player to Score 50/Half Century” (Yes/No) betting requires that the player\r\nreach the batting crease while a ball is bowled, though it is not necessary\r\nthat they face a ball. A player is deemed to have scored 50 or a “Half Century”\r\nonce their score is 50 or more runs regardless of whether the player scores a\r\ncentury or more. In cases where a batsman’s innings is ended by weather or bad\r\nlight, all bets where a result has not been determined will be declared void,\r\nunless the game has reached a natural conclusion. Should a batsman retire due\r\nto injury or any other reason, his score at the end of his team’s innings will\r\nbe considered as the result for that bet. Additionally, for all limited overs\r\nmatches, should the intervention of rain (or any other delay) result in the\r\nnumber of overs being reduced from those initially scheduled at the time the\r\nbet was accepted, then all open (player to score 50) bets will be declared void\r\nif the reduction is 10% or more of those scheduled. If the reduction is less\r\nthan 10% of the scheduled overs at the time the bet was accepted, then bets\r\nwill stand. If a team innings is 10 overs or less, then any reduction in overs\r\nwill void bets. Should the outcome of such offers be already decided before the\r\ninterruption and no further play could possibly change the outcome of such\r\nbets, then these will be settled accordingly.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
13)\r\n“Player to Score 100/Century/200/Double Century” (Yes/No) betting requires that\r\nthe player reach the batting crease while a ball is bowled, though not\r\nnecessarily facing a ball. A player is deemed to have scored 100 or a “Century”\r\nonce their score is 100 or more runs regardless of whether the player scores a\r\ndouble century or more. Similarly, a player is deemed to have scored 200 or a “Double\r\nCentury” once their score is 200 or more runs. In cases where a batsman’s\r\ninnings is ended by weather or bad light, all bets where a result has not been\r\ndetermined will be declared void. Should a batsman retire due to injury or any\r\nother reason, his score at the end of his team’s innings will be considered as\r\nthe result for that bet. Additionally, for all limited overs matches, should\r\nthe intervention of rain (or any other delay) result in the number of overs\r\nbeing reduced from those initially scheduled at the time the bet was accepted,\r\nthen all open (player to score 100/200) bets will be declared void if the\r\nreduction is 10% or more of those scheduled. If the reduction is less than 10%\r\nof the scheduled overs at the time the bet was accepted, then bets will stand.\r\nIf a team innings is 10 overs or less, then any reduction in overs will void\r\nbets. Should the outcome of such offers be already decided before the interruption\r\nand no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these\r\nwill be settled accordingly.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
c. \r\nLimited Overs Cricket (including One-Day\r\nInternationals, Twenty20s & Domestic One-Day cricket)
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
1)\r\nShould a match be transferred to a “reserve” day, all bets will remain valid as\r\nlong as the game commences within 48 hours of the original, scheduled start\r\ntime.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2)\r\nMatch odds (head-to-head) betting pays on the official result. In the event of\r\na tie, dead heat rules as explained in Clause 1 of the General Cricket Rules\r\nwill apply unless a subsequent tiebreaker method is used to determine the\r\nwinner (e.g., Super Over, Bowl-out), in which case the outcome will be settled\r\non the result of this method. Should the match be declared a “no-result” all\r\nbets are void.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3)\r\nIf any “Super Over” or tiebreaker is required, any runs, wickets or any other\r\nstat that may occur in the Super Over/tie breaker do not count towards any\r\nbetting market (except match result) including player bet offers & team\r\ntotals (e.g., Top batsman/bowler, player runs, total 6’s, to take at least X\r\nwickets). This rule does not apply to specific bet offers relating to “Super\r\nOvers” (e.g., Super Over Total Runs).
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4)\r\nFor “Match Handicap / Winning Margin” betting, settlement will depend on\r\nwhether the winning team bats 1st or 2nd. If the team\r\nbatting 1st wins, then the runs handicap will be used for\r\nsettlement. If the team batting 2nd wins, then the wickets handicap\r\nwill be used for settlement. All bets will be declared as void should the\r\nnumber of overs be reduced due to weather (or any other reason) from the\r\nstandard scheduled number of overs in a Twenty 20 match or any other limited\r\novers match.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
5)\r\nFor “Highest 1st 6/15 Overs” all bets will be declared as void\r\nshould the number of overs in the match be reduced due to weather (or any other\r\nreason) from the scheduled number of overs at the time the bet was accepted\r\n(whether standard or already reduced). Should the outcome of such offers be\r\nalready decided before the interruption and no further play would possibly\r\nchange the outcome of such bets, then these will be settled accordingly. In the\r\nevent of a tie, if no draw price was offered, dead heat rules as explained in\r\nClause 1 of the General Cricket Rules will apply.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
6)\r\n“Highest Total 1st X Overs” bets will be void should the\r\nintervention of rain (or any other delay) result in the number of overs in the\r\nmatch being reduced from those initially scheduled at the time the bet was accepted.\r\nShould the outcome of such offers be already decided before the interruption\r\nand no further play could possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these\r\nwill be settled accordingly.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
7)\r\n“Highest Opening Partnership” requires that both sides complete their opening\r\npartnerships with the exception of those situations where an outcome has\r\nalready been determined. An opening partnership is considered to have begun\r\nonce the first ball is bowled in a team innings, and lasts until the fall of 1st\r\nwicket or, should no 1st wicket fall, the innings reaching its\r\nnatural conclusion. In the event of a tie, if no draw price was offered, dead\r\nheat rules as explained in Clause 1 of the General Cricket Rules will apply.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Additionally,\r\nall “Highest Opening Partnership” bets will be declared as void should the\r\nnumber of overs in the match be reduced due to weather (or any other reason)\r\nfrom the scheduled number of overs at the time the bet was accepted (whether\r\nstandard or already reduced). Should the outcome of such offers be already\r\ndecided before the interruption and no further play would possibly change the\r\noutcome of such bets, then these will be settled accordingly.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
8)\r\nIn “Fall of Next Wicket” & “Opening Partnership” (Over/Under) betting,\r\nshould either batsman retire due to injury or any other reason before a result\r\nhas been determined, all bets placed before the retirement will be declared\r\nvoid; bets taken after the first ball of the new partnership will stand. A result\r\nis deemed to have been determined if the partnership total has passed the run\r\ntotal at which the bet was accepted. If a team reaches their target, the total\r\nachieved by the batting team will be the result of the market. If a partnership\r\nis disrupted due to weather all bets will stand, unless there is no further\r\nplay in the match. In such case all bets where a result has not been determined\r\nwill be declared void. In relation to the over number at the fall of next\r\nwicket, any quoted half refers to the whole over number not the specific balls\r\nbowled in each over (e.g., over/under 5.5 refers to either “any delivery in\r\nover 5 & earlier” or “any delivery in over 6 & later”).
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Additionally,\r\nall Fall of Wicket (F.O.W.) bets will be declared as void should the number of\r\novers in the match be reduced due to weather (or any other reason) from the\r\nscheduled number of overs at the time the bet was accepted (whether standard or\r\nalready reduced). Should the outcome of such offers be already decided before\r\nthe interruption and no further play would possibly change the outcome of such\r\nbets, then these will be settled accordingly.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
9)\r\nFor “Total Runs – Innings X” (Over/Under) (e.g., Total Team Runs) betting, all\r\nbets will be declared as void should the number of overs in the match be\r\nreduced due to weather (or any other reason) from the scheduled number of overs\r\nat the time the bet was accepted (whether standard or already reduced). Should\r\nthe outcome of such offers be already decided before the interruption and no\r\nfurther play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these will be\r\nsettled accordingly. For the avoidance of doubt: Any bets taken after the\r\nnumber of overs has been reduced will stand unless there is a further\r\nreduction.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
10)\r\nFor “Total Runs – Innings X, Overs X-X” (Over/Under) (e.g., Total Runs – Home\r\nTeam, Overs 1-15) betting, all bets will be declared as void should the number\r\nof overs be reduced due to weather (or any other reason) from the scheduled\r\nnumber of overs in the match at the time the bet was accepted (whether standard\r\nor already reduced). Should the outcome of such offers have already been\r\ndecided before the interruption and no further play would possibly change the\r\noutcome of such bets, then these will be settled accordingly. For the avoidance\r\nof doubt: Any bets taken after the number of overs has been reduced will stand\r\nunless there is a further reduction.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
11)\r\nFor “Total 4s/6s/Boundaries/Wickets” (Over/Under) betting, all bets will be\r\ndeclared as void should the number of overs be reduced due to weather (or any\r\nother reason) from the scheduled number of overs in the match at the time the\r\nbet was accepted (whether standard or already reduced). Should the outcome of\r\nsuch offers have already been decided before the interruption and no further\r\nplay would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these will be settled\r\naccordingly.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Leg-bye\r\nand byes that reach/pass the boundary do not count towards total 4s/6s.\r\nOverthrows awarded to the batsman do count. Wides that reach the boundary are\r\nnot counted. No-balls that reach the boundary off the bat and are awarded to\r\nthe batsman will be counted.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
12)\r\nFor “Most Fours/Sixes/Wides/Run-outs/Boundaries/Ducks/Extras” betting, should\r\nthe intervention of rain (or any other delay) result in the number of overs\r\nbeing reduced from those initially scheduled at the time the bet was accepted,\r\nthen all open (Most “X”) bets will be declared void if the reduction is 10% or\r\nmore of those scheduled. If the reduction is less than 10% of the scheduled\r\novers at the time the bet was accepted, then bets will stand. If a team innings\r\nis 10 overs or less, then any reduction in overs will void (most “x”) bets.\r\nShould the outcome of such offers be already decided before the interruption\r\nand no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these\r\nwill be settled accordingly. Leg-bye and byes that reach/pass the boundary do\r\nnot count towards total 4s/6s.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
In\r\nthe event of a tie, if no draw price was offered, dead heat rules as explained\r\nin Clause 1 of the General Cricket Rules will apply.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
13)\r\nFor “Total Wides/Run-outs/Ducks/Extras/Stumpings” (Over/Under) betting, all\r\nbets will be declared as void should the number of overs be reduced due to\r\nweather (or any other reason) from the scheduled number of overs in the match\r\nat the time the bet was accepted (whether standard or already reduced). Should\r\nthe outcome of such offers have already been decided before the interruption\r\nand no further play would possibly change the outcome of such bets, then these\r\nwill be settled accordingly. For wides and extras, settlement will include the\r\nruns scored from wides and not just the number of wides bowled.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
14)\r\nFor “Highest Individual Score”, all bets will be declared as void should the\r\nnumber of overs in the match be reduced due to weather (or any other reason)\r\nfrom the standard scheduled number of overs in a Twenty 20 match or any other\r\nlimited overs match. Should the outcome of such offers be already decided\r\nbefore the interruption then these will be settled accordingly.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
15)\r\nFor “Team of Top Run Scorer” betting, should the intervention of rain (or any\r\nother delay) result in the number of overs being reduced from those initially\r\nscheduled at the time the bet was accepted, then all open (team of top run\r\nscorer) bets will be declared void if the reduction is 10% or more of those\r\nscheduled. If the reduction is less than 10% of the scheduled overs at the time\r\nthe bet was accepted, then bets will stand. If a team innings is 10 overs or\r\nless, then any reduction in overs will void bets. Should the outcome of such\r\noffers be already decided before the interruption and no further play would\r\npossibly change the outcome of such bets, then these will be settled\r\naccordingly.

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

For the calculation of these settlements, the\r\nminimum number of occurrences which should have been needed to bring the offer\r\nto the natural conclusion will be added as necessary depending on the number of\r\nlegs which the match is scheduled for. Should this calculation produce a\r\nsituation where no possible variations could affect the outcome of the offer\r\nthis will be settled as such.

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
10) \r\nSettlement\r\nof “Head-to-Head” bet offers involving the performance of two or more players (e.g.,\r\nBest Finishing Position in the tournament) will be based upon the best\r\nfinishing position/lowest score (as applicable) achieved in the relative\r\nevent/round to which the bet refers.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
11) \r\nAny\r\nreference to Make/Miss the “Cut” requires an official cut/exclusion effected by\r\nthe organizers for bets to stand. In the case of tournaments where players are\r\neliminated during more than one phase, settlement will be based on a whether\r\nthe player has qualified or not following the first “Cut” made.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
12) \r\nDisqualification/withdrawals\r\nby a player before the “Cut” is made will result in the player being considered\r\nas having missed the “Cut”.

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
13) \r\nIn\r\n“Head-to-Heads” based on the best finishing position in the tournament, in case\r\none player misses the cut then the other player will be settled as the winner.\r\nIf both participants fail to make the “Cut” the player with the lowest score at\r\nthe “Cut” will be considered as the winner. Should both players fail to make\r\nthe “Cut” with the same score then the bet will be void. A player disqualified\r\nafter the “Cut” has been made is deemed to have beaten a player who has failed\r\nto make the “Cut”.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
14) \r\nAny\r\nreference to “Majors” will be based on the tournaments for that particular\r\nseason to which the PGA attributes the definition, regardless of any venue,\r\ndate, or any other changes.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
15) \r\nShould\r\nplay be stopped after a round has started and the governing association decide\r\nto cancel all action referring to that round and start from scratch or cancel\r\naltogether the round, then all bets placed after the start of that round on the\r\nTournament outright, Leader After Round market and the Miss/Make the cut market\r\nwill be void.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
5) \r\nFor\r\nsettlement purposes, in case the fight is interrupted for any reason in between\r\nrounds, e.g., retirement before the start of a round, disqualification, or failure\r\nto answer the bell, the fight will be deemed to have finished at the end of the\r\nprevious round.

Settlement will be based according to the definition with which the\r\nofficial governing body issues the statistics. Desert Diamond\r\nwill not consider inconsistent personal interpretation of such terms.\r\nIn cases where both fighters are declared as having accomplished the same\r\nresult, with that outcome not having been available as a possible outcome for\r\nbetting purposes, stakes will be refunded.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

15) \r\nBets\r\nreferring to specific teams’ performance during the race require the initially\r\nstipulated number of vehicles from each team to start the race for bets to\r\nstand, otherwise they will be declared void (e.g., in Formula 1, two cars from\r\neach team should start the race).

Bets\r\nplaced after any news which can potentially reduce the number of events any\r\nlisted player is eligible for within the competition (e.g.,\r\ninjury/transfer/trade news), and theoretically alter the odds in favor of any\r\nparticular outcome without the odds having been adjusted to reflect the current\r\nstate of the bet, will be declared void. Settlement of similar bets will be\r\nbased on the result after potential over (extra) time, unless otherwise stated.\r\n
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
6) \r\nAll\r\nbets stand, regardless of change of venue.
\r\n\r\n1) \r\nAll\r\nbets will remain valid provided the match/offer is played within the tournament\r\nframework regardless of any changes in schedule, etc., unless other\r\narrangements have been agreed.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\n“Moneyline”\r\n(or “Match”) bet offers are based on the general principle of tournament\r\nprogress or tournament win, depending on the phase of the competition to which the\r\nmatch refers. The player progressing to the next round or winning the\r\ntournament is to be considered the winner of the bet regardless of match\r\nduration, withdrawals, disqualifications, etc. These bets require at least one\r\nframe to be completed for bets to stand.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\n“Over/Under”\r\noffers on unfinished matches/events in which the outcome is already determined\r\nprior to the interruption and/or any further continuance of play could not\r\nproduce a different outcome to such offers will be settled based on the result\r\nachieved prior to the interruption occurred. For the calculation of these\r\nsettlements, the minimum number of occurrences which should have been needed to\r\nbring the offer to its natural conclusion will be added as necessary depending\r\non the number of frames which the match is scheduled for. Should this\r\ncalculation produce a situation where no possible variations could affect the\r\noutcome of the offer this will be settled as such. See examples from the Tennis\r\nsection for reference.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4) \r\n“Handicap”\r\noffers require all scheduled frames to be completed for bets to stand except in\r\nthose events the outcome of which is already determined before the interruption\r\nand/or any further continuance of play could not possibly produce a different\r\noutcome to the offers which will be settled accordingly. See examples from the\r\nTennis section for reference.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
5) \r\nAll\r\n“Correct Score” and “Odd/Even” offers, and those offers which refer to the\r\nwinner of a particular period in the match (e.g., “Player to win the first set”\r\nor “First Player to reach X Frames”), require the relevant part of the match to\r\nbe completed.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
6) \r\nAll\r\ntypes of offers not specified above require at least one frame to be completed\r\nfor bets to stand, except for those offers the outcome of which is already\r\ndetermined before an interruption of play and any further continuation of play\r\ncould not possibly produce a different outcome.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
7) \r\nIn\r\ncases of a re-rack, all pending bets on that specific frame will be settled as\r\nvoid and a new market will be opened. An exception will be made for those\r\noffers in which the outcome is already determined prior to the re-rack and any\r\nfurther continuation of play could not produce a different outcome.
\r\n\r\n1) \r\nFirst/Next\r\nGoalscorer – The bet refers to a specific player being the scorer of the listed\r\ngoal within the applicable timeframe or being the first scorer for his team\r\n(e.g., “First Goalscorer – Team X”). Stakes will be refunded on players who do\r\nnot take part in the match or come on the field of play after the listed goal\r\nto which the bet refers has been scored. Own goals do not count for the\r\nsettlement of this offer. Should the goal to which the bet refers be deemed as\r\nan own goal, the next player to score a goal which is not an own goal and which\r\nconforms with the bet offer parameters will be deemed as the winning outcome.\r\nIn case no goals (or no further goals, as applicable) is/are scored which are\r\nnot own goals and which fulfil the remaining bet offer parameters, all bets\r\nwill be considered lost, unless an applicable option has been listed within the\r\noffer.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\nLast\r\nGoalscorer – The bet refers to a specific player being the scorer of the last\r\ngoal either during a particular timeframe of the event (e.g., “Last goal in the\r\nmatch” or “Last goal in the 1st Half”) or being the last scorer for his team (e.g.,\r\n“Last Goalscorer – Team X”). Stakes will be refunded only on players who do not\r\ntake part in the match at all. In all other instances bets will remain valid, regardless\r\nof the time of inclusion/substitution of the player. Own goals do not count for\r\nthe settlement of this offer. Should the goal to which the bet refers be deemed\r\nas an own goal, the previous player to score a goal which is not an own goal\r\nand which conforms with the bet offer parameters will be deemed as the winning\r\noutcome. In case no goals (or no previous goals, as applicable) is/are scored\r\nwhich are not own goals and which fulfil the remaining bet offer parameters,\r\nall bets will be considered lost.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\n“Scorecast”\r\nand “Matchcast” are bet offers where it is possible to bet simultaneously on a\r\nparticular occurrence (e.g., First Goalscorer) combined with another from the\r\nsame or related event (e.g., Correct Score in the match or match outcome).\r\nShould the bet refer to First or Last Goal Scorer, terms and conditions as\r\nstated in Sport Specific Rules, Section C, Paragraphs 25.1 and 25.2\r\nwill apply, where applicable. Stakes will be refunded on players who do not\r\ntake part in the match at all. In all other instances bets will remain valid, regardless\r\nof the time of inclusion/substitution of the player. Own goals do not count for\r\nthe settlement of this offer.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4) \r\nUnless\r\notherwise specified, or indicated in conjunction with the bet offer, all bets\r\nplaced before match start related to whether a specific player(s) will manage\r\nto score any number of goals require the listed player(s) to play from the\r\nstart of the match to be valid. Similar types of bets placed after the relevant\r\nmatch has started will be settled as void should the listed player(s) not take\r\nany further part in the match for whatever reason after bet acceptance. Own\r\ngoals will never count as a goal scored for any selected player.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
5) \r\nOn\r\nall bets related to yellow/red cards, booking points, etc. only cards shown to\r\nplayers which at that moment are on the pitch are valid for settlement\r\npurposes. Cards, disciplinary actions, or suspensions imposed on any other\r\nindividual who at the moment of the sanction is not, or should not, be actively\r\nplaying on the pitch, as well as disciplinary measures taken after the game has\r\nofficially ended, are disregarded.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
6) \r\nUnless\r\notherwise specified or indicated in conjunction with the bet offer, all\r\ndisciplinary-related bets placed before match start referring to individual(s)\r\n(e.g., yellow card, red card, number of fouls) require the listed player(s) to\r\nplay from the start of the match to be valid. Similar type of bets placed after\r\nthe relevant match has started will be settled as void should the listed\r\nplayer(s) not take any further part in the match for whatever reason after bet\r\nacceptance.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
7) \r\n“Booking\r\nPoints” are calculated according to the following rules: Yellow card = 10\r\npoints; Red card = 25 points. Maximum points for one player are 35.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
8) \r\nOffers\r\nreferring to individual player performance in a single match (e.g., Total Goals\r\nScored by Player X) or relative performance of 2 individual players during the\r\ncourse of a match (e.g., Will Player X or Player Y score the most Goals)\r\nrequire all listed individuals to play from the start of the match for bets to\r\nstand.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
9) \r\nOffers\r\nreferring to individual player performance (e.g., Total Goals Scored by Player\r\nX during the World Cup) or relative performance of 2 individual players over a\r\nparticular period/tournament/season (e.g., Will Player X or Player Y score the\r\nmost goals during the league) require that all listed individuals must be an\r\nactive participant in at least one more event applicable for the bets to stand.\r\nBets placed after any news which can potentially reduce the number of events\r\nany listed player is eligible for within the competition (e.g.,\r\ninjury/transfer/trade news), and theoretically alter the odds in favor of any\r\nparticular outcome without the odds having been adjusted to reflect the current\r\nstate of the bet, will be declared void.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
10) \r\nAll\r\nbets referring to aggregated Tournament Totals (such as Goals, Corners, Cards,\r\nPenalties, etc.) will be settled based on official statistics by the governing\r\nassociation. Unless otherwise stated, cumulative amounts of such bets will\r\ninclude eventual prolongations (e.g., Extra Time) but not Penalty Shoot-outs.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
11) \r\nUnless\r\nspecifically stated, all bets referring to a particular team winning a\r\nnumber/selection of trophies in the same season will be based on the particular\r\nteam’s performance within the following competitions: the domestic league, the\r\napparent equivalent of the respective FA Cup and League Cup as well as the\r\nChampions League or Europa League. Other trophies (e.g., domestic and European\r\nSuper Cup, World Club Cup) do not count.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
12) \r\nThe\r\n“Domestic Double” is to be considered as the team’s victory in the apparent\r\nequivalent of the respective domestic league and FA Cup.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
13) \r\nFor\r\nsettlement purposes, bets referring to the number of cards shown by the referee\r\nwill be counted as follows:
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
· \r\nYellow\r\ncard = 1
\r\n\r\n· \r\nRed\r\ncard = 2
\r\n\r\n· \r\nOne\r\nyellow and a red = 3
\r\n\r\n· \r\nTwo\r\nyellow cards and a red = 3
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
The\r\nmaximum cards for one player is 3 cards. Only cards shown to players currently\r\neligible as per the Sport Specific Rules, Section C, Paragraph 25, Clause 5,\r\nwill be taken into consideration.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
14) \r\nBets\r\non whether a particular player will manage to score from certain areas of the\r\npitch (e.g., from outside the “penalty box”) will be settled based on the\r\nposition of the ball at the time the shot was struck by the player, regardless\r\nof any further deflections which the ball trajectory might incur following the\r\ninitial shot. For the sake of clarity, the lines delineating the “penalty box”\r\nare to be considered as an integral part of such area of the pitch. Thus,\r\nshould a shot be struck with the ball hovering above, or touching, even\r\npartially, the lines, the shot will not be considered as having been affected\r\nfrom outside the box.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
15) \r\nBets\r\non whether a particular player will manage to hit the cross bar, goal post or\r\nany other part of the frame delineating the goal area will only be settled as\r\nhaving accomplished such feat if the shot does not result directly in a goal\r\nbeing awarded exactly after the ball hits a part of the goal frame. Settlement\r\nwill only take into consideration shots aimed at the goal frame defended by the\r\nopponents of the listed player’s team. Should a player have a shot which hits\r\nthe post their team defends, this will not be considered as having accomplished\r\nsuch feat.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
16) \r\nDuring\r\ncertain events Desert Diamond might decide to offer a reduced selection of\r\nparticipants for betting (e.g., Any unlisted Team X player) or a single\r\nparticipant as a representation of the whole squad (e.g., “Any Team X player”).\r\nIn both cases for settlement purposes, all unlisted squad members are to be\r\ndeemed as starters (and settled as such), including substitutes regardless of whether\r\nthey take part in the match or not.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
17) \r\nBets\r\non the performance of players starting the match on the bench will be settled\r\nas void if the player is either listed in the starting XI (11 players) or does\r\nnot take part in the match at all.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
18) \r\nOn\r\noffers such as Next Goalscorer, Next Carded player, Next Assist and Man of the\r\nMatch stakes will be refunded should the chosen player not take part in the\r\nmatch at all or had no possibility to accomplish such feat during the specified\r\ntimeframe.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
19) \r\nBets\r\non “Next Assist” for a particular goal will be settled as void should the governing\r\nassociation declare the specified goal as having been unassisted, the specified\r\ngoal was an own goal and/or no more goals were scored in the match during the\r\nspecified timeframe.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
20) \r\nBets\r\nreferring to penalty kicks conversion and/or outcome will be settled according\r\nto the outcome occurred on the field of play as per the rules governing that\r\nspecific scenario and in cases of penalty shoot-outs will remain valid\r\nregardless of the format employed by the governing association during the\r\nshoot-out. Bets stand in case the penalty is ordered to be re-taken and will be\r\nsettled with the outcome achieved from the re-taken penalty.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
As\r\na general principle, settlement will be based on the concept that unless the\r\npenalty kick results in a goal being awarded (and settled accordingly), the\r\nfirst person/object/location (as applicable) which the ball initially touches\r\nafter being kicked will be considered as the winning outcome, disregarding any\r\nother persons/objects the ball hits in its subsequent trajectory following any\r\nprevious deflection, if any. The following examples are being issued as a\r\ngeneral guideline on settlement:
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
“Goal”\r\nwould be the winning outcome in case of the following scored penalties\r\nscenarios:
\r\n\r\n· \r\nAny\r\npenalty kick which ends up as a goal without it being deflected;
\r\n\r\n· \r\nGoalkeeper\r\ntouches the penalty kick, but ball ends up as goal;
\r\n\r\n· \r\nPenalty\r\nkick touches the woodwork before ending up in goal.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
“Save”\r\nwould be the winning outcome in case of the following missed penalties\r\nscenarios:
\r\n\r\n· \r\nGoalkeeper\r\ndeflects the penalty kick to outside the goal frame;
\r\n\r\n· \r\nGoalkeeper\r\ndeflects the penalty kick onto the post/crossbar.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
“Woodwork”\r\nwould be the winning outcome in case of the following missed penalties\r\nscenarios:
\r\n\r\n· \r\nPenalty\r\nkick hits the woodwork before it is touched/saved by the goalkeeper;
\r\n\r\n· \r\nPenalty\r\nkick hits the woodwork and ball goes outside the goal frame.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
“Any\r\nother Miss” would be the winning outcome in case of any penalty kick which\r\nwithout any deflection either by the goalkeeper or by the woodwork ends up\r\noutside the goal frame.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Exception\r\nto the above scenarios would be: 1) during a penalty shoot-out, if the ball hits the woodwork,\r\nbounces on the goalkeeper and ends in goal, the penalty will be considered\r\nas having been scored and “Goal” will be considered as the winning outcome);\r\nand 2) during any other part of the match that is not a penalty shoot-out, if\r\nthe ball hits the woodwork, bounces on the goalkeeper and ends in goal, the\r\npenalty taker will be considered as having missed the score and “Woodwork” will\r\nbe considered as the winning outcome.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
21) \r\nAny\r\ndecision taken by the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) which conflicts with the\r\noriginal decision sanctioned by the officials on the pitch (including\r\nnon-decisions like allowing play to continue before reviewing the video), thus\r\naltering the understood state of the match at the time of bet placement, will\r\nresult in all bets placed in the timeframe between the actual occurrence of the\r\noriginal incident and the referee’s final decision on the incident being deemed\r\nas void, unless the odds offered on the specific bet offer are unaffected by\r\nthe use of VAR or have already been accounted for in the odds offered at the\r\ntime of bet acceptance. Settlement on all other unrelated bet-offers, including\r\nthose determined by any play between the time of the original incident and the\r\ndecision following the VAR review, which are not influenced/altered by the VAR\r\ndecision will stand.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
For\r\nsettlement purposes, VAR reviews, and\r\nthe decisions emanating from the reviews to be considered as having happened at\r\nthe time of the original incident for which the VAR would be eventually used\r\neven if play has not been immediately interrupted. Desert Diamond reserves the\r\nright, in accordance with the Conditions of Agreement, Section A, Paragraph\r\n6, Clause 2, to reverse any previously settled offers where the settlement\r\nbecomes inaccurate following the final referee decision, providing the decision\r\nis taken and communicated before the conclusion of the match and/or timeframe\r\nlisted.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
In\r\norder to avoid any doubts, Desert Diamond will consider the VAR as having been\r\nused if it is understood from the referee’s gestures (e.g., hand gestures,\r\nstopping the match to review the incident themselves), and/or the VAR usage is\r\nconfirmed by the match report issued by the organizing association. In cases\r\nwhere it is unclear whether the VAR has been used due to missing TV coverage\r\nand/or conflicting reports, Desert Diamond will settle the bets based on the\r\ninformation acquired from feed providers and generally reputable online sources\r\non the basis of equity.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
22) \r\nFor\r\nsettlement purposes, markets referring to team to be shown the next Card\r\n(booking) and/or “Total Cards” will always consider a Red Card as 2 instances\r\nof a card being shown and will be settled accordingly. The following examples\r\nare being listed as a guideline:
\r\n\r\n· \r\nFirst\r\ncard shown in a match is a straight Red Card. The team to which the card is\r\nawarded will be settled as the winning selection for the offers: Cards #1 and\r\n#2;
\r\n\r\n· \r\nFirst\r\ncard shown in a match is a Yellow Card followed by a straight Red Card to the\r\nsame player without a second yellow card being shown. The team to which the\r\ncards are awarded will be settled as the winning selection for the offers:\r\nCards #1, #2 and #3;
\r\n\r\n· \r\nFirst\r\ncard shown in a match is a Yellow Card followed by a second Yellow Card with a subsequent\r\nRed Card to the same player. The team to which the cards are awarded will be\r\nsettled as the winning selection for the offers: Cards #1, #2 and #3.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
23) \r\nMarkets\r\nreferring to which specific player will be the next to be booked/receive a card\r\nare to be understood and settled as per the order of the instance in which each\r\nsingle player gets booked/sent off by the referee. The card color shown by the\r\nreferee will not be given any consideration in the settlement of this offer and\r\nthe decisive criteria will always be the order in which the single player is\r\nconsidered to have gone into the referee’s book. For settlement purposes, it is\r\npossible for a single player to be listed twice as the “Next Carded player” provided\r\nboth bookings occur during different interruptions of play. Should 2 or more\r\nplayers be booked during the same interruption of play, bets on this offer will\r\nbe settled as void.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
24) Any\r\nreference to “Free Kicks” when presented as either a single outcome or as an\r\noccurrence will also take into consideration instances awarded for offsides and\r\nany other violation except those sanctioned with a penalty.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
25) \r\nOffers\r\nthat refer to a specific player playing the whole match require that specified\r\nplayer to start the match for the bet to stand. For settlement purposes, bets\r\nwill be settled as YES only if the specified player is neither substituted nor\r\nsent off during Regular Time only. Eventual extra time does not count.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
1) \r\nAll\r\noffers will be settled based on the official result declared by the governing\r\nassociation at the completion of the last scheduled heat. Subsequent\r\npromotions, demotions, appeals and/or penalties inflicted after the termination\r\nof the event to which the bet refers are disregarded.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\n“Match”\r\nbets between two teams/riders are settled according to the official result,\r\nregardless of the number of heats completed.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\n“Over/Under”\r\noffers on unfinished matches/events, the outcome of which is already determined\r\nbefore an interruption and/or any further continuance of play could not\r\npossibly produce a different outcome to offers, will be settled based on the\r\nresult achieved until the interruption. For the calculation of these\r\nsettlements, the minimum amount of occurrences which should have been needed to\r\nbring the offer to the natural conclusion will be added as necessary depending\r\non the number of sets which the match is scheduled for. Should this calculation\r\nproduce a situation where no possible alterations could affect the outcome of\r\nthe offer this will be settled as such. See examples from the Tennis section\r\nfor reference.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4) \r\n“Handicap”\r\noffers require all scheduled heats to be completed for bets to stand except in\r\nthose events the outcome of which is already determined before the interruption\r\nand/or any further continuance of play could not possibly produce a different\r\noutcome to offers which will be settled accordingly. See examples from the Tennis\r\nsection for reference.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
5) \r\nAll\r\n“Head-to-Head” and “Over/Under” bets featuring the performance of one or more\r\nriders in an event/heat are considered valid provided all listed riders take\r\npart in at least one heat for bets to stand.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
6) \r\nBets\r\nreferring to a specific heat require the specific heat to be completed and all\r\nlisted participants to take part in the particular heat for bets to stand.
\r\n\r\n1) All\r\nterms and conditions stated for Tennis apply where applicable.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
1) \r\nAll\r\nbets stand, regardless of any postponement, change of venues, etc., provided\r\nthe event is held within the official waiting period as declared by the\r\ngoverning body.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\nMatchups\r\nreferring to the performance of one or more surfers are considered valid provided\r\nall listed surfers start in the listed heat/event.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\nCertain\r\ncompetitions/events might have offers that are relevant to the performance in\r\nan event where two or more listed surfers are eliminated in the same stage. In\r\nthis case bets would be settled according to the dead heat rule, where the\r\npayout would be calculated after the odds are divided and then multiplied by\r\nthe stake, regardless of whether the net payout is lower than the patron’s\r\nstake. Should such provision be in place it would be listed in conjunction with\r\nthe bet offer.
\r\n\r\n1) \r\nUnless\r\notherwise stated, all bets on Swimming are determined on the basis of the\r\nresult after the final stage of that competition. If neither of the listed\r\nparticipants takes part in the final stage, all bets will be void, unless the\r\ngoverning association follows specific tiebreaking procedures, in which case\r\nthese will be deemed valid.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\nAll\r\nbet offers will be settled based on the first official result being presented.\r\nHowever, Desert Diamond will take into account and settle/re-settle accordingly\r\nany changes to the official result issued within 24 hours after the event has\r\ntaken place. For such eventuality to be considered, a protest must be\r\nattributable to incidents happening exclusively during the event, such as a\r\nlane infringement, an early start in a relay race, etc. No doping cases will be\r\nconsidered. The result available at the end of the aforementioned 24 hours will\r\nbe deemed as binding regardless of any further protests, changes to the official\r\nresult, etc.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\nIf\r\ntwo or more participants take part in different heats during a competition, all\r\nHead-To-Head-offers between them will be considered void, unless there is a\r\nlater stage in the competition that at least one of them qualifies for.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4) \r\nA\r\nparticipant who is disqualified due to the infringement of the start procedure\r\n(false start) will be deemed to have taken part in the event.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
1) \r\nAll\r\nbets will remain valid provided the match/offer is played within the tournament\r\nframework regardless of any changes (either before or during the match) in\r\nconditions (indoor/outdoor) and/or surface types, unless other arrangements\r\nhave been agreed.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\nMatch\r\nBet offers are based on the general principle of tournament progress or\r\ntournament win, depending on the phase of the competition to which the match\r\nrefers. The player/team progressing to the next round or winning the tournament\r\nis to be considered as the winner of the bet regardless of withdrawals,\r\ndisqualifications, etc. These bets require at least one set to be completed for\r\nbets to stand.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\n“Over/Under”\r\nand “Spreads” (or “Handicap”) offers on unfinished matches in which the outcome\r\nis already determined before an interruption\r\nof play and/or any further continuance of play could not possibly produce a\r\ndifferent outcome to the offers will be settled based on the result achieved\r\nuntil the interruption. For the calculation of these settlements, the minimum\r\nnumber of occurrences which should have been needed to bring the offer to its\r\nnatural conclusion will be added as necessary depending on the number of sets\r\nwhich the match is scheduled for. Should this calculation produce a situation\r\nwhere no possible variations could affect the outcome of the offer this will be\r\nsettled as such. The following examples can be used for consideration:
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Example\r\n1 - Over/Under: A retirement occurs in a match scheduled for three sets with\r\nthe score 7-6, 4-4. The offers: “Total Games Set 2 – 9.5” (or any lines lower\r\nthan that amount) & “Total Games Played in the Match – 22.5” (or any lines\r\nlower than that amount) will be settled with “Over” bets as winning and “Under”\r\nbets as losing. Bets on lines higher than that will be settled as void.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Example\r\n2 - Handicap: A retirement occurs at the start of the 3rd set in a\r\nmatch scheduled for 5 sets with the score at 1-1. Bets on +2.5/-2.5 Sets will\r\nbe settled as winners and losers respectively. Offers on any lines lower than\r\nthat amount will be settled as void.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4) \r\nAll\r\n“Correct Score” (namely Set Betting and Game Betting) and “Odd/Even” offers,\r\nand those offers which refer to the winner of a particular period in the match\r\n(e.g., “Which player will win the first set?” and “Set 2 – Game 6: Winner”),\r\nrequire the relevant part of the match to be completed.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
5) \r\nAll\r\ntypes of offers not specified above require at least one set to be completed\r\nfor bets to stand, except for those offers in which the outcome is already\r\ndetermined prior to an interruption of play and any further continuation of\r\nplay could not possibly produce a different outcome.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
6) \r\nIn\r\na Doubles match, all bets will be declared void if any of the stated players\r\nare substituted or replaced.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
7) \r\nAny\r\nreference to “Grand Slams” will be based on the tournaments for that particular\r\nseason to which the ITF attributes the definition, regardless of any venue,\r\ndate or any other changes.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
8) \r\nUnless\r\nexplicitly stated, all bets on Davis Cup matches will be voided if the match is\r\nplayed in any other format other than “Best of 5 Sets” (e.g., Best of 3 Sets).
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
9) \r\nAll\r\nDavis Cup offers explicitly assume that the particular match-up will form part\r\nof the so-called “rubbers” for the next available singles session, which\r\nusually consists of two singles matches per session. All bets will be cancelled\r\non matches which are intended for the first or second rubber (usually Friday\r\nSingles matches) which had the listed participants changed, regardless of the\r\nfact that the same encounter could actually happen during other match-ups of\r\nthe same tie/round.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
10) \r\nResults\r\nacquired in a “Pro Set” will be valid only for the following offers: “Match”, “Set\r\nHandicap”, “Set Betting” and “Total Sets”. All other types of offers will be\r\nsettled as void, with the exception of offers for which the outcome is already\r\ndetermined.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
11) \r\nAs\r\na general rule “tiebreaks” are always considered as 1 game only, regardless of\r\nthe number of points needed to win or whatever the format of the “tiebreak”.\r\nThe following tiebreaking scenarios will be settled as follows:
\r\n\r\n· \r\n“Match\r\ntiebreak”: Normally played instead of the decisive set when both participants\r\nhave won the same number of sets. For settlement purposes, this is considered\r\nas a full set as well as a game and counted accordingly. However, it will not\r\nbe considered as a tiebreak for the settlement of the relevant offers;
\r\n\r\n· \r\n“Tiebreak\r\nat 6-6 in a set, first to 7 points”: For settlement purposes, this is\r\nconsidered to be 1 game and counted accordingly as well as a tiebreak for the\r\nsettlement of the relevant offers;
\r\n\r\n· \r\n“Tiebreak\r\nat 6-6 in a set, first to 10 points”: For settlement purposes, this is\r\nconsidered to be 1 game and counted accordingly as well as a tiebreak for the\r\nsettlement of the relevant offers;
\r\n\r\n· \r\n“Tiebreak\r\nat 12-12 in a set, first to 7 points”: For settlement purposes, this is\r\nconsidered to be 1 game and counted accordingly as well as a tiebreak for the\r\nsettlement of the relevant offers;
\r\n\r\n· \r\n“Tiebreak\r\nat 3-3 in a set, first to 7 points” (aka Fast 4 format): For settlement\r\npurposes, this is considered to be 1 game and counted accordingly as well as a\r\ntiebreak for the settlement of the relevant offers;
\r\n\r\n· \r\n“Tiebreak\r\nTens”: A match which consists solely of a tiebreak with the winning participant\r\nbeing the one to first reach 10 points and lead by a margin of 2. This is\r\nconsidered both as a tiebreak and as a full match for the settlement of the\r\nrelevant offers.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Should\r\nany match include a tiebreaking format not listed above, offers will be settled\r\naccording to the definitions as described by the ITF or, in absentia, the\r\nclosest in principle to the examples listed above.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
12) \r\nWin/Place\r\nand Each-Way bets referring to the Tournament Winner placed between the time of\r\nthe first publication of the main draw by the organizing association and the\r\nstart of the competition will be refunded should the listed participant not\r\ntake any further part in the Tournament. Exception will be made for any\r\nparticipants still involved in the qualifying stages as these will be\r\nconsidered as active participants.
\r\n\r\n
1) \r\nAny\r\npoints tallied during the so called “Golden Set” will not count for the\r\nsettlement of the offers relating to that particular match, with the exception\r\nof any bets referring to tournament progression and Tournament Totals.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\nSettlement\r\nof player-related bets in match/event/tournament will be based on the result\r\nafter potential over (extra) time, unless otherwise stated.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\nOffers\r\nreferring to individual player performance in a single match (e.g., Total\r\nPoints Scored by Player X) or relative performance of 2 individual players\r\nduring the course of a match (e.g., Will Player X or Player Y score the most\r\nPoints) require all listed individuals to be an active participant in the\r\napplicable match for bets to stand.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4) \r\n“Over/Under”\r\nand “Handicap” offers on unfinished matches in which the outcome is already\r\ndetermined prior to the interruption of play and/or where any further\r\ncontinuance of play could not produce a different outcome to such offers will\r\nbe settled based on the result achieved until the interruption. For the\r\ncalculation of these settlements, the minimum number of occurrences which\r\nshould have been needed to bring the offer to its natural conclusion will be\r\nadded as necessary depending on the number of sets which the match is scheduled\r\nfor. Should this calculation produce a situation where no possible variations\r\ncould affect the outcome of the offer, this will be settled as such. See\r\nexamples from the Tennis section for reference.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
5) \r\nAll\r\n“Correct Score” and “Odd/Even” offers, and those offers which refer to the\r\nwinner of particular period/timeframe in the match (e.g., “Which team will win\r\nthe 1st set?” and “Set 2 – Race to 15 points”), require the relevant part of\r\nthe match to be completed.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
6) \r\nAll\r\ntype of offers not specified above require at least one set to be completed for\r\nbets to stand, except for those offers in which the outcome is already\r\ndetermined before an interruption of play and any further continuation of play\r\ncould not possibly produce a different outcome.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
7) \r\nOffers\r\nreferring to individual player performance (e.g., Total Points Scored by Player\r\nX during the World Championship) or relative performance of 2 individual\r\nplayers over a particular period/tournament/season (e.g., Will Player X or\r\nPlayer Y score the most points during the Regular Season) require that all\r\nlisted individuals must be an active participant in at least one more event applicable\r\nfor the offer to stand. Bets placed after any news which can potentially reduce\r\nthe number of events any listed player is eligible for within the competition (e.g.,\r\ninjury/transfer/trade news), and theoretically alter the odds in favor of any\r\nparticular outcome without the odds having been adjusted to reflect the current\r\nstate of the bet, will be declared void.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
1) \r\nThis\r\nsection is valid for the following sports: Alpine Skiing, Biathlon, Cross\r\nCountry Skiing, Freestyle, Nordic Combined, Short Track, Ski Jumping, Snowboard\r\n& Speed Skating.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\nResults\r\nfrom a competition will be deemed valid if it is declared as a valid\r\ncompetition for the relevant category, by the governing association for that\r\nsport. This applies in case of an event being shortened, such as only\r\nconsisting of one run/jump instead of two, or an event being moved to another\r\nvenue.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\nIn\r\ncases of abandoned/uncompleted events, all those offers the outcome of which is\r\nalready determined before the interruption of play and any further continuation\r\nof play could not possibly produce a different outcome are deemed valid and\r\nwill be settled accordingly.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4) \r\nAll\r\noffers will be settled as void if the original/stated format of an event is\r\ncompletely changed, like the size of hill in Ski Jumping, style in Cross\r\nCountry Skiing, etc.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
5) \r\nDesert\r\nDiamond reserves the right to apply Tattersalls Rule 4 in case of a non-starter\r\nin a “Group Betting” (“Best of X”) offer.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
6) \r\nOffers\r\nrelated to specific Winter Sports events (excluding, for example, bets\r\nreferring to Overall classifications, Olympic, World and Continental\r\ncompetitions) are offered with the explicit assumption that the particular\r\nevent will be the next event held in that particular sports/discipline. Should\r\nthe specific event be moved for any reason whatsoever and an exactly similar\r\nevent for that sports/discipline is held in the same location starting in not\r\nmore than 72 hours, the bets will be valid for the next scheduled event in that\r\nsports/discipline. Thus, if, for example, two separate races from the same\r\nsports/discipline are scheduled for Friday and Saturday and the Friday\r\ncompetition is moved to Saturday or Sunday, the bets on the Friday competition\r\nwill be settled in accordance with the next scheduled event, in this case\r\nSaturday’s events. In cases where just 1 event is scheduled in that\r\nsports/discipline and the starting time is moved less than 72 hours, bets will\r\nremain valid and will be settled accordingly. Should no event with the same\r\nconnotations be held in the 72 hour period after the initially scheduled time,\r\nbets will be settled as void.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
7) \r\nIn\r\na “Head-to-Head” between two or three participants, at least one of the listed\r\nparticipants must complete the final run/stage/jump to which the bet refers,\r\nfor bets to be considered valid. Such provision is not applicable for Cross Country\r\nSprint events, which include different elimination stages, or to Ski Jumping.\r\nIn such cases, settlement will be based on the official classification regardless\r\nof whether any of the listed participants completes the final run/stage/jump.
\r\n\r\n
1) \r\nThe\r\nconditions stated in this section refer to all offers which would not be\r\nreasonably classified under the different sports categories (Ex. TV Programs,\r\nPolitics, Awards & Prizes, Beauty Contests, Entertainment and similar).\r\nWhenever applicable, and unless otherwise stated in this section or in the\r\noffer, settlement of these offers will be based on the General Betting Rules, Section\r\nB, Paragraph 5.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\nUnless\r\notherwise specified below or in conjunction with the bet offer, all bets which fall\r\nunder this section are valid until a result is officially declared regardless\r\nof any delays in the announcement, extra voting rounds, etc. which would be\r\nneeded for the outcome to be announced.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\nAll\r\nopen offers involving participants who withdraw/have been evicted from TV shows\r\n(either departing voluntarily or following an organizer’s decision) will be\r\nsettled as lost. Should the same participant re-enter the same competition at a\r\nlater date, he/she will be treated as a new contestant thus previous bets will\r\nbe settled as lost.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4) \r\nBets\r\nreferring to the removal of a participant are only valid for the next scheduled\r\nshow. Any changes to the methods of eviction, amount and/or line-up of\r\nparticipants eliminated during the same program, or any other factors which were\r\nnot reasonably expected, will result in the bets referring to “Next eviction”\r\nor “Next Elimination” to be voided.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
5) \r\nIn\r\nthe event of the show terminating before an official winner is declared, bets\r\nwill be settled as a tie (i.e., dead heat) between the contestants who have not\r\nbeen eliminated. Win/Place bets on contestants who have been already eliminated\r\nwill be settled as lost.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
6) \r\nPolitics\r\nmarkets will be settled in accordance with the result as confirmed 12 hours\r\nafter it was first published by the government organization responsible for\r\nholding the election within that particular jurisdiction on its official\r\nwebsite/social media. In essence, once a relevant governmental organization\r\ndeclares an official result and confirms it for 12 hours, this will constitute\r\nthe basis for settlement regardless of eventual protests, disputes, sub-judice\r\nresults and/or successive changes to the official result.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
7) \r\nFor\r\nthe sake of maximizing user experience, Desert Diamond reserves the right, in\r\nits discretion, to use information collected from generally reputable and\r\nhistorically accurate sources to settle markets before the official result, as\r\ndescribed in the Sport Specific Rules, Section C, Paragraph 33, Clause 6,\r\nis proclaimed and confirmed. In the unusual cases where, after the eventual\r\npublishing and confirmation of the first official result, a discrepancy is\r\nfound which changes the outcome of the market, Desert Diamond will rectify the\r\nError and honor the eventual winning bets as per official result, while\r\neffecting all necessary amendments in accordance with the Conditions of Agreement, Section A, Paragraph 6,\r\nClause 2. Changes deriving from eventual protests, disputes, sub-judice\r\nresults and/or successive changes to the official result after has been\r\nissued/confirmed will not be considered.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
1. Conditions\r\nof Agreement
\r\n\r\nA. Introduction
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
1) \r\neSports\r\nbetting is understood to encompass single or multi-player competitive video\r\ngaming in both online and/or offline setup. A list of the games/genres covered\r\nin this section can be found in Section D, Paragraph 2, of these House\r\nRules.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\nDesert\r\nDiamond reserves the right to include and treat offers on events related to\r\ngames/genres not listed in the aforementioned clause as eSports, provided they\r\nreasonably fit the description. Previous or future iterations of games/genre\r\nforming part of the same series will be treated as per the rules related to\r\nthat particular game/genre as present in these House Rules, regardless of any\r\ndifferent numbering and/or denomination. If a game, genre, event and/or offer\r\nrelated to it is not specifically listed in these House Rules, settlement of\r\nsuch offers will be based on the general principles established in the House\r\nRules.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\nUnless\r\nspecifically stated in this section, the rules present in the General Betting Rules, Section B, apply. In\r\nthe event of ambiguity, priority will be set in the following order:
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\ni. \r\nRules\r\nand conditions published in conjunction with an offer and/or campaign;
\r\n\r\n\r\nii. \r\neSports\r\nGame-specific rules (if applicable);
\r\n\r\n\r\niii. \r\neSports\r\nGenre-specific rules;
\r\n\r\n\r\niv. \r\neSports\r\nGeneral Result Settlement rules;
\r\n\r\n\r\nv. \r\nDesert\r\nDiamond’s General Betting Rules, Section B.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
4) Should\r\nnone of the above provide an adequate resolution, Desert Diamond reserves the\r\nright, in its discretion, to settle offers on an individual basis on the basis\r\nof equity, using generally accepted betting norms, customs and definitions.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
B. General Result Settlement rules
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
1) \r\nWhen\r\nsettling results, Desert Diamond takes reasonable steps to use information obtained firsthand\r\n(during or exactly after the event has been concluded) from the organizing\r\nassociation, through the game broadcast (whether TV, web-based or through other\r\nsources) and any relevant counters it might display, the game API and the\r\nofficial website. Should the required information be omitted from firsthand\r\nviewing and/or official sources, or if there is an obvious Error in the\r\ninformation included in the sources above, the settlement of the bet offer will\r\nbe based on other public sources.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) \r\nSettlement\r\nof bets will not include any changes deriving from and/or attributable to:\r\ndisqualifications, penalizations, protests, sub-judice results, successive\r\nchanges to the official result after the event has been completed and a result\r\nhas been announced, even preliminarily, or the like. For bets referring to\r\ncompetitions which span over more than 1 round/stage (e.g., Tournament Bets),\r\nonly amendments effecting bets which have not been settled yet will be taken\r\ninto consideration. The following example is being provided as a general\r\nguideline of how such bets would be treated in case of comparable situations: A\r\nbet on a team to reach the semi-finals of a tournament will be considered as\r\nhaving been attained once the organizing association deems it as such, even if\r\nthe same team is disqualified from the tournament at a later stage for any\r\nreason whatsoever.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
3) \r\nAny\r\nreference to words/objects that appear in singular also applies to plural. As\r\nsuch the term “participant”, “competitor” or similar must be understood both as\r\na single individual and a team representing a single entity.
\r\n\r\n4) \r\nAlthough Desert Diamond takes reasonable precautions to\r\nrepresent an accurate rendition of the event as scheduled by the governing\r\nassociation, any references to the order in which the participants are shown,\r\nvenue(s), etc. are to be deemed for information purposes only. Switching of Home/Away\r\nparticipants, as well as previously announced venues, will not be deemed as\r\nvalid grounds for cancellation of bets placed.
\r\n\r\n5) \r\nBefore or during an event/match, Desert Diamond may decide\r\nto show current and past scores, counters and other statistics related to the\r\noffer. Desert Diamond provides such data for information purposes only and will\r\nnot be responsible for the accuracy of such data. All data presented in this\r\nregard must be treated as unofficial and any inaccuracy will not be deemed as\r\nvalid grounds for the cancellation of bets placed.
\r\n\r\n6) \r\nShould the name of any participant/event/game be misspelled\r\nand/or be changed, bets will remain valid provided it is reasonably clear and\r\ncan be ascertained through reputable sources that the object the bet has been\r\nplaced upon is the same as the participant/event/game intended.
\r\n\r\n7) \r\nThe\r\ndeadline (cut-off time) shown on the Site is to be treated for information\r\npurposes only. Desert Diamond reserves the right, at its own discretion, to\r\nsuspend, partially or completely, the betting activity at any time where it\r\ndeems necessary.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
8) \r\nRegardless\r\nof the start times displayed on the Site, the rules mentioned in the General\r\nBetting Rules, namely those in the Conditions of Agreement, Section A, Paragraphs\r\n2 to 6, regarding the validity or lack thereof of bets placed and/or\r\naccepted, apply.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
9) \r\nWithout\r\nprejudice and in addition to the above clause, Desert Diamond reserves the\r\nright, in its discretion, to void bets should any of the following situations\r\narise:
\r\n\r\n\r\ni. \r\nDesert\r\nDiamond experience lags in receiving data/image streams from any of its sources/providers,\r\nresulting in Desert Diamond presenting odds not reflecting the current state of\r\nthe bet;
\r\n\r\n\r\nii. \r\nit\r\nis reasonably obvious that bets have been placed from accounts which have\r\naccess to data/image streams not available at that time to Desert Diamond;
\r\n\r\n\r\niii. \r\nbets\r\nhave been placed after any participant has gained an advantage sufficient to\r\nalter the odds of any offer, even just theoretically, without the odds having\r\nbeen adjusted to reflect the current state of the bet.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
10) \r\nShould\r\na match start at a different time than that listed on the Site, this will not\r\nbe deemed as valid grounds for cancellation of the bets, provided the exact\r\nsame match is the next match taking place for both teams within the same\r\ntournament and is valid for the round/stage initially intended.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
11) \r\nUnless\r\nspecifically stated, whenever the organizing association includes any extra\r\nrounds/overtime, qualifying match(es) or series of matches in order to\r\ndetermine any classification and/or match outcome, Desert Diamond will take\r\ninto account the results and outcomes deriving from the added\r\nmatches/rounds/overtime for settling bets referring to match/classification.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
12) \r\nAll\r\nbet offers related to matches, or parts thereof, which do not take place at all\r\nor are awarded a result through a walk-over decision will be declared void. For\r\nsettlement purposes, action within a match (or part thereof) is considered to\r\nhave occurred if either the game clock has started or a participant performs an\r\nin-game action related to the match (or part thereof), whichever happens first.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
13) \r\nOffers related to matches or parts thereof which get\r\nabandoned for whatever reason, with no result declared by the official\r\norganization within 36 hours from the actual match start, will have the stakes\r\nrefunded on those bet offers whose result has not yet been determined. All bet\r\noffers that have been decided prior to the abandonment and could not possibly\r\nbe changed regardless of future events will be settled according to the decided\r\noutcome.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
14) Should\r\nit be decided that an abandoned fixture (or part thereof) is\r\nto be continued within 36 hours of the original start time, all bets placed on\r\nthe initial match will stand and will be settled through the outcomes deriving\r\nfrom the continued play.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
15) \r\nShould it be decided that an abandoned fixture (or\r\npart thereof) is to be restarted from the beginning within 36 hours of the\r\noriginal start time, all bets placed on the initial match which could not be\r\nsettled through the outcomes deriving from the play prior to abandonment will\r\nbe declared void.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
16) \r\nShould it be the case that either participant is\r\ninvolved in a match from the same tournament with a different opponent between\r\nthe time of the abandonment and the continuation of the initial match, all\r\npending bets on the initial match will be settled as void regardless of the\r\noutcomes obtained during the continuation of the match.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
17) \r\nOffers\r\nreferring to Tournament outcomes and or matches/events scheduled over 2 or more\r\ndays will remain valid, provided the event is considered completed and an\r\nofficial result is announced by the organizing association within the specified\r\nyear, regardless of the current/future participation (or lack thereof) of any\r\nlisted and/or previously announced participant, unless otherwise stated.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
18) \r\nWhere\r\nmatches have not been completed before their natural conclusion, but a result\r\nis issued through a decision by the organizing association not more than 36\r\nhours from the event’s actual start without play having continued following the\r\nabandonment, Desert Diamond will use the issued decision as the official result\r\nfor the offers detailing the outcome of the match and/or tournament progress (e.g.,\r\nMatch odds and Participant to reach next round) provided the issued decision\r\ndoes not change the outcome of the bet offers at the time of the abandonment, in\r\nwhich case the stakes will be refunded. (E.g., Team A leading 2 Maps to nil in\r\na best of 5 Maps match and Team B concedes: Association declares Team A as\r\nwinner of the match = bet stands. Meanwhile if the same best of 5 Maps match\r\nwas abandoned with the score 1-1 and the Association declares either team as\r\nthe winner, the bet will be considered as void). All other offers will be\r\ndeclared void except for those the outcomes of which have been decided prior to\r\nthe abandonment and could not possibly be changed regardless of future events,\r\nwhich will be settled according to the decided outcome.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
19) \r\nSettlement\r\nof bet offers linked to counters (e.g., Total Kills) and any other offers\r\nrelated to specific terminology will be decided according to the definition\r\nwith which the official governing body issues the statistics. Desert\r\nDiamond will not consider inconsistent personal interpretation of such terms.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
20) \r\nWhen\r\nplacing “Outright” or “Place” bets, no stakes will be refunded on\r\nparticipants/outcomes that are not participating, disqualified and/or\r\nwithdrawing from an event (both prior and during) for any reason whatsoever,\r\nunless otherwise stated. Desert Diamond reserves the right, at its own discretion,\r\nto apply Tattersalls Rule 4, as explained in the General Betting Rules, Section\r\nB, Paragraph 6, on any competition and this will be stated in correlation\r\nto the bet offer.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
21) \r\nOffers\r\nreferring to a single participant’s performance in a specific event/timeframe\r\n(such as Tournament Progress of Team X) require the listed participant to play\r\nan active part at least once in a subsequent stage of the applicable\r\nevent/timeframe after the bet has been placed and/or accepted.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
22) \r\nNo\r\nrefunds of bets will apply, even if the winning outcome of a match/event is a\r\nparticipant/outcome that has not been listed for betting purposes. On all bet\r\noffers the patron has the possibility to ask for a price on a non-listed\r\nparticipant/outcome. Desert Diamond reserves the right, at its own discretion,\r\nto decline such requests.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
23) \r\nOffers\r\nwhich confront against each other the performances of two or more participants\r\nover a specified timeframe/competition will only be settled based on the result\r\nof the listed participants, disregarding all other participants in the same\r\ncompetition/event.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
24) \r\nIn\r\ncase a participant is disqualified/withheld/banned from taking part in a\r\nsubsequent part/phase of an event/competition for any reason whatsoever, as\r\nwell as in case of voluntary withdrawals, the disqualification will be\r\nconsidered to have taken place at the time of the official announcement. No changes\r\nwill be made to previous results, regardless of any modifications due to the\r\nactions.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
25) \r\nIn\r\nan “Outright” or “Place” bet, should two or more participants be considered to\r\nhave obtained the same result and the organizing association does not\r\ndistinguish in their classification, dead heat rules as specified in the\r\nGeneral Betting Rules, Section B, Paragraph 5, Clause 14, applies.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
26) \r\nDesert\r\nDiamond will refund stakes on offers comparing the achievements/performances of\r\ntwo participants within a specified timeframe (e.g., Tournament Best Finishing\r\nPosition, Match Winner, Winner of Map X) should any of the following\r\ncircumstances apply:
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\ni. \r\nNo\r\nodds were offered on a “draw” outcome and no tie-breaking\r\nprocedures/overtime/extra rounds are used by the organizing association to result\r\nin a match/offer or classify participants that obtained the same result;
\r\n\r\n\r\nii. \r\nAny\r\nof the listed participants does not play any further part in any subsequent\r\nstage of the related event/part thereof after the bet has been placed and/or\r\naccepted;
\r\n\r\n\r\niii. \r\nNone\r\nof the listed participants is included in the applicable classification;
\r\n\r\n\r\niv. \r\nNone\r\nof the listed participants is deemed to have achieved the specified requirement\r\nafter the bet has been placed and/or accepted and no odds for such outcome has\r\nbeen offered.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
27) \r\nOffers\r\ncomparing the achievements/performances of three participants will be treated\r\nas detailed in preceding clause, with the exception that should two or more\r\nparticipants share the applicable finishing position dead heat rules as\r\nspecified in the General Betting Rules, Section B, Paragraph 5, Clause 14,\r\napplies.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
28) \r\n“Outright”\r\nand “Place” bets rules apply on offers comparing the achievements/performances\r\nof four or more participants, with the exception of those offers specifically\r\nlisted as “Group Betting”. In such cases, stakes will be refunded if at least\r\none of the listed participants is not actively involved anymore for whatever\r\nreason after the bet has been placed and/or accepted.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
29) \r\nUnless\r\nthe outcome of the offer has already been determined before any change is\r\nannounced, bets referring to a race to a particular happening/totals of a particular\r\noccurrence (e.g., First participant to win X rounds, Over/Under Maps played) or\r\nthe margins/difference of completed occurrence between participants (e.g., Map\r\nHandicap, Exact Map score in the match) will be settled as void if the match\r\nformat is completely changed in a way that would alter the counter of such\r\noccurrences and their respective odds, including but not limited to cases where\r\nthe number of scheduled Maps is changed from a previously announced odd number\r\nof scheduled Maps (e.g., Best of 1/3/5) to an even number of scheduled Maps (e.g.,\r\nBest of 2/4/6) and vice-versa. Bets will stand and will be settled accordingly\r\nfor those offers where the announced changed is not relevant (e.g., Match odds\r\nwill remain valid if the number of scheduled Maps is changed from the previously\r\nannounced 3 Maps to 5 Maps), or the outcome of the offer has already been\r\ndetermined before any change is announced. The following example is being\r\nprovided as a general guideline of how such bets would be treated in case of\r\ncomparable situations: A bet on “To win 1st Map” will remain valid if a match\r\nis changed from 3 to 5 Maps but an Over/Under bet on Total Maps in the Match\r\nwould be settled as void in a similar scenario.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
30) \r\nShould\r\nDesert Diamond erroneously offer odds and lines based on a different number of\r\nMaps/Games/Rounds from the correctly scheduled number of the instances,\r\nsettlement of offers referring to a race to a particular happening/totals of a\r\nparticular occurrence (e.g., First participant to win X rounds, Over/Under Maps\r\nplayed) or the margins/difference of completed occurrence between participants\r\n(e.g., Map Handicap, Exact Map score in the match) will be settled as void if\r\nthe match format is completely different in a way that would alter the counter\r\nof such occurrences and their respective odds, including but not limited to\r\ncases where the number of scheduled Maps is calculated on an odd number of\r\nscheduled Maps (e.g., Best of 1/3/5) when the match is scheduled for an even\r\nnumber of Maps (e.g., Best of 2/4/6) and vice-versa. Bets will stand and will\r\nbe settled accordingly for those offers where the discrepancy is not relevant (e.g.,\r\nMatch odds will remain valid if the number of scheduled Maps quoted is 3\r\ninstead of the stipulated 5 Maps), or the outcome of the offer has already been\r\ndetermined before any change is announced. The following example is being\r\nprovided as a general guideline of how such bets would be treated in case of\r\ncomparable situations: A bet on “To win 1st Map” will remain valid if a match\r\nis listed as 3 instead of 5 Maps but an Over/Under bet on Total Maps in the\r\nMatch would be settled as void in a similar scenario.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
31) \r\nDuring\r\nspecific events Desert Diamond might decide, solely at its own discretion, to\r\noffer for betting purposes a reduced selection of participants which could\r\ninclude betting options such as “Any Other”, “The Field”, or similar. This\r\noption includes all unlisted participants except for the ones mentioned\r\nspecifically as available. Desert Diamond reserves the right to list/specify\r\nmore participants at a later stage. Should these newly listed participants be\r\nthe winning outcome, they will be considered as having been unlisted until the\r\ntime they have actually been introduced to the list and settled accordingly.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
32) \r\nOffers\r\nthat make a specific reference to a participant’s performance in a particular event/timeframe\r\n(e.g., Team X vs The Field or Winner without Team X) are to be considered void\r\nif the mentioned participants fail to play an active part at least once in a\r\nsubsequent stage of the applicable event/timeframe after the bet has been\r\nplaced and/or accepted.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
33) \r\nShould\r\na match start with a different number of players than that encompassed in the\r\nevent regulations (e.g., Either team starts a match with only 4 players instead\r\nof the scheduled 5 players), all bets will be determined as void. In case either\r\nteam loses momentarily and/or permanently from the match any number of players,\r\nafter the match has started with the stipulated number of participants as per\r\nthe event regulation, bets will remain valid.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
34) \r\nBets\r\non matches/events featuring participants which use a different/wrong nickname\r\nor using a so-called “smurf account” will stand, provided it does not become\r\nreasonably obvious that the participant using that particular nickname is not\r\nthe one intended. In such cases bets will be settled as void.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
35) \r\nBets\r\non a team are to be considered valid regardless of the individuals used by the\r\nteam as participants. Should the organizing association deem it permissible for\r\na team to play with a stand-in participant or replacement player, all bets will\r\nstand provided an official result is issued.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
36) \r\nAny\r\nform of a qualification ahead of the main tournament (where applicable) is\r\nconsidered to be a valid part of that competition. Thus, any participant who is\r\neliminated at qualification stage will be considered losing to anyone that is\r\npre-qualified or is successful in the qualification stage.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
37) \r\nIn\r\nthe case of bets where there is reference to timeframes, they should be\r\ninterpreted in the following way: “within the first 30 minutes” will include\r\nanything happening until 0 hours 29 minutes and 59 seconds; “between 10 to 20\r\nminutes” will include anything happening from 10 minutes and 0 seconds until 19\r\nminutes and 59 seconds, etc.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
38) \r\nAny\r\nbets referring to duration represent the actual time passed in the\r\nmap/round/event, as applicable. For example, a bet on Over 30.5 minutes in a\r\nMap will be settled as Over once 30 minutes and a half in the specified map\r\nhave passed.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
39) \r\nAny\r\nreference to “Winner” and/or “Upper” bracket will remain valid regardless of\r\nwhether Maps and/or any other advantages are awarded via the event rules to any\r\nparticipant.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
40) \r\nAdvantages\r\nawarded via event structure will be considered for settlement purposes, unless\r\notherwise specified. Nonetheless, any reference to specific indexes of Maps,\r\nGames, etc. as presented on the Site is always to be considered as relevant to\r\nthe phase of the match being actually played. Example: in a best of 3 Maps\r\nmatch where Team A starts with a 1 Map advantage, any Map 1 related offers will\r\nactually refer to the outcomes emanating from the second Map of the match (i.e.,\r\nthe first Map to be actually played).
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
