Asian Handicap is a style of betting where the bookmaker handicaps the

an example, the bookmaker gives a goals deficit to the team he thinks is
more likely to win, and a head start to the team he thinks is less
likely to win. The handicaps are expressed in goals, or fractions of
goals. To win a bet, the end user, rather than backing a team to win,
bets on it to overcome the handicap.

23. IN RUNNING ("LIVE") BETS SERVICE

of events or in a special file entitled "LIVE" on the Website.

An In Running ("Live") bet is where the End User is permitted to place a
bet during an ongoing match or event up to such time when the Operator
ceases betting on that match or event.
23.3 In an In Running ("Live") Bet for Asian Handicap bets, two types of scoring system are displayed on the Website:
(a)
Where current scores or results are updated and displayed ("Type A
Scoring"). The settlement of a bet is determined by the result of the
final score (including the handicap) at the conclusion of the match or
Period Betting (depending on the nature of the bet), minus the current
score at the time of the placing and acceptance of the bet.
(b)
Where current scores or results are not displayed and instead a 0-0
score or result will be displayed ("Type B Scoring"). The settlement of a
bet is determined by the result of the final score (including the
handicap) at the conclusion of the match or Period Betting (depending on
the nature of the bet). The End User is advised to verify match status
before placing their bet.
23.4
Depending on the specific sport, selected markets may be offered for
betting at the sole discretion of the Operator. The Operator does not
acknowledge or accept any liability whatsoever if it is not possible to
place a bet or if the live score update is incorrect. It is the scores
or results displayed at the conclusion of the match that are valid.
23.5
At all times, it is the End User's responsibility to be aware about the
score and is advised to verify match status before placing your bets.
23.6
Unless otherwise stated on the Specific Sport Rules, any information,
statistic or editorial text ( e.g. scores, timers or results) displayed
on the website during an In Running ("Live") game situation are purely
for general information purposes and should not be relied upon for
betting purposes.
23.7
As with non-live bets, the winner of an event will be determined at the
conclusion of the event. Protested, appealed or overturned decisions
will not be recognized for wagering purposes and subsequent changes to
the results will not affect the outcome of the bet.
23.8
The Operator reserves the right to suspend a market or not accept bets
at anytime without notice. When a market is suspended any bets placed
for that market but prior to being accepted by the Operator may be
rejected at the Operator's discretion. Any bets accepted prior to
suspension or cessation of the live market will stand, while any bets
placed after live betting has ceased will not be accepted unless
otherwise stated in the Specific Sports Rules.
23.9
During In Running ("Live") bet conditions, bets placed will be kept in
pending mode during specific high risk/ danger moments in a match. Such
bets will be indicated as "Pending" on each bet slip until such time
when the bet is accepted or rejected by the Operator. High Risk/ Danger
moments are defined as follows:
(a) Corner kicks;
(b) Penalty kicks;
(c) Free kick awarded to attacking team near the opponent's penalty box area;
(d) Throw in given to attacking team near the opponent's penalty box area;

Substitutions and/or bets which do not have an effect on the overall
result of the match) will be cancelled if one of the following occurs:
(a) A goal is scored
(b) A player is sent off
23.11
All other bets such as Total Bookings, Total Corners, Total Offsides,
Total Substitutions and/or bets which do not have an effect on the
overall result of the match may be accepted at the Operator's
discretion.
23.12
The Operator at its sole discretion shall determine the time in which
any goal or point was scored. References as to the time of goal(s) or
points scored as stated in official league/club website, media website
or "live score" website may be considered for guidance purposes but
shall not be binding on the Operator in its determination of time.
23.13
Where the Operator has reason to believe or suspect that a live bet has
been placed after the outcome of a live event is known or if delayed
"live" television coverage results in a live bet being placed at the
incorrect price after the selected participant has gained an advantage
(to be determined at the Operator's sole discretion), the Operator shall
be entitled to treat the bet as void without having to provide any
reason whatsoever.
23.14
In the event of any technical malfunction, including the crashing of
its website or suffers any downtime which hinders, delays or prevents
the Operator from accessing its website to update the score, odds or
handicap, the Operator reserves the right to cancel all pending bets
placed at the time of the incident.
23.15
With regard to live betting, the general rules concerning results'
evaluation apply. Where a live event is interrupted in the course of
play, causing the event to be postponed or abandoned, any bets taken on
such postponed or abandoned events that are not restarted within 12
hours from the event commencement time (unless specifically provided for
in a particular sports' betting rule) shall be void. The exception
shall be for bets which have been unconditionally determined before the
actual interruption of play. In such circumstances, such bets will be
valid.

2.6
Under no circumstances will the Operator take on the liability for the
bet or otherwise be held responsible for the bet not being transmitted
to, received by, or otherwise accepted by the Tote. The Operator will
not be liable for any loss of
winnings that would have been due had the
bet been placed in the Host Tote’s pool.
2.7 If your bet does not reach the Host Tote’s pool the bet amount will be returned to your betting account.
2.8 The Operator assumes no responsibility for:

(b)
the accuracy, completeness or timeliness of the information services

3. SETTLEMENT OF BETS

3.2
Winning dividends are calculated by dividing the total amount of stakes
entered into the Host Tote’s pool (less Deductions) by the number of
winning units. The percentage Deductions taken from each pool vary
depending on the Host Tote and the country where the Host Tote operates.
3.3
Where no winning dividend is declared settlement will be based on the
rules of the relevant Host Tote where the pool is based.
3.4
All odds and potential dividends advertised by the Operator on the
Website before the pool closes are taken from the approximate odds
indicator at the relevant Host Tote and, therefore, are for guidance and
information purposes only.
3.5 Settlement will be based on the Dividend declared for the official result by the Host Tote after the weigh-in.
3.6
In the event that an objection is lodged against the result of a race,
any payments on the result of the race shall be made in accordance with
the decisions of the race meeting officials or stewards.

guaranteed Dividend equal to the unit of the wager, for all pari-mutuel
bet types.

the horse name/number then the number declared by the racecourse will
take precedence.
4. KEY TERMS
4.1 Commingling
Commingling
of pools is the process where one Tote combines its wagering pool with a
pre-determined community of betting entities to create one common
Dividend. Commingling is commonplace in many horserace betting
organisations around the world.
4.2 Deductions
The
Tote will make deductions from the total pool to cover its margin for
running the pool and other statutory taxes and levies imposed.
The level of Deductions will vary between individual Host Totes and between different bet types.
Dividends are declared after deductions have been made from the pool.
4.3 Dividend
The
Dividend is the amount declared to be paid for the winning selection or
combination in respect of each unit bet in accordance with the Tote’s
rules as they apply to each form of betting offered.
4.4 Official
An
official or steward is a person acting, in a permanent or temporary
capacity, on behalf of the racing authority in a given jurisdiction. The
role of an official can be to determine the race outcome and/or hear
objections to the race result.
4.5 Official Result
The
official result is the official announcement and publication of the
outcome of a race upon which the dividend shall be calculated and
winning bets be paid.
4.6 Pari-Mutuel Betting
Pari-mutuel
betting (also called ‘pool betting or ‘Tote betting’) refers to bet
types in which all money staked is placed into a pool. The return on
winning bets (‘dividend’) is calculated from the total amount wagered in
the pool and the total number of winning tickets after the official
race result is known. Dividends are declared after Deductions have been
made from the pool.
Unlike
fixed-odds betting, a customer will not know what their potential
winnings are when they strike a pari-mutuel bet. In pari-mutuel betting
the final Dividend is only determined after the pool has closed and the
result of the race is officially declared.
A Tote (totalisator) will give an indication of the potential dividend based on bets already placed into the pool.
4.7 The Off
The
‘Off’ refers to point at which a race is deemed to have started. The
point at which the “Off” is officially determined has implications both
for the classification for non-runners and the point at which betting
pools close.
4.8 Tote (totalisator)
A
Tote (an abbreviation of the term ‘totalisator’) is the operator of
pari-mutuel betting. A Tote is responsible for running the betting
pools, collecting the pool bets, displaying potential dividends,
calculating the final dividends, and paying out winnings.
In
return for running the betting pools, a Tote will take a deduction from
the pool and may also collect other statutory levies and taxes on
behalf of government.
4.9 Unit Bet
Unit
bet, in respect of each bet type, means the minimum amount fixed by the
Tote as the amount on which dividends will be calculated.
4.10 Weigh In
A
jockey must weigh in carrying the same weight at the end of a race as
the jockey carried at the start of a race. Failure to do so can result
in disqualification. Once the weigh-in has been completed to the
satisfaction of the officials, the official result can be announced. The
weigh is also called the “all clear” at some tracks.
16. ICE HOCKEY
16.1
For bets to be valid, there must be 5 minutes or less of scheduled game
time left when the remainder of the game is called off, unless
