2. Definitions |
|
|
| |
| 2.1 |
Stake: is the amount placed on a bet.
|
| 2.2 |
Winnings: is calculated by multiplying the stake by the odds of the selected event. In case of multiple bets, the amount is calculated by multiplying all the odds between themselves and then multiplying this number by the stake.
|
| 2.3 |
Service charge: On any bet made by phone or fax we apply a service charge of 3% of the stake (Internet bets are Taxfree).
|
| 2.4 |
Single/Multiple bet: a Single is a bet on one selection in one event. Your selection must be successful to get a return. A multiple consists of one bet involving two or more selections. All must be successful to get a return.
|
| 2.5 |
Minimum/Maximum selections: indicates the minimum/maximum number of selections that can be combined with given events. (e.g. the match Liverpool-Arsenal reads "Sel. Min.1 Max.5", means that it can be selected alone or combined with a maximum of 4 other matches)
|
| 2.6 |
Compatibility: min./max. indicates whether various selections or sports events can be combined . (e.g. It may not be possible to combine a basketball match with a F1 race.)
|
| 2.7 |
Void bets or events: void bets have no effect on the calculation of winnings. If a single bet is void, the stake will be refunded (including tax if applicable). In case of multiple bets, only the void events will be considered void and indicated by a "V" (void).
|
| 2.8 |
Combinations: is a bet that gives you the chance to "hedge" your bets by selecting some of the events as fixed (Bankers).
|
| 2.9 |
Under/Over Score: You have to forecast whether the total number of goals will be under or over the given number. "Under" will be successful where you forecast a lower total than the given figure."Over" will be successful where you forecast a higher total than the given figure.
|
| 2.10 |
Head-to-Head: You have to forecast which out of two competitors will win the match or have the best time.
|
| 2.11 |
Handicap: The outcome of the bet is obtained by adding or subtracting the handicap quoted from the Home team's final result. e.g.: (+9.5) Dallas - San Diego; to be successful Dallas must win by at least 10 points.
|
| 2.12 |
Goal/No Goal (GG/NG): GG will be successful when both teams score during the regular 90 minutes (e.g. 1-1, 2-1, 2-3); NG will be successful when either team fails to score (e.g. 0-0, 1-0, 0-2). This type of selection is minimum trebles (T) and can be combined only with other GG/NG.

|
|
7. Calculating and paying off winnings |
|
|
| |
| 7.1 |
The calculation of the winnings on a determined event/competition will take place at the conclusion of the last event.
|
| 7.2 |
All winnings will be credited to the client's account.
|
| 7.3 |
Unless otherwise specified, odds are expressed in decimals and include the stake.
Examples of equivalents:
Decimal odds 3.00 = 200 (Italian odds) = 2/1 (English odds) = +200 (American odds)
Decimal odds 1.50 = 50 (Italian odds) = 1/2 (English odds) = -200 (American odds)
Decimal odds 1.25 = 25 (Italian odds) = 1/4 (English odds) = -400 (American odds)
|
| 7.4 |
In the case of singles bets, a win is calculated as the stake multiplied by the odds given to the event selected. E.g.: if one bets £ 100 on a team that wins with an odds of 2.50, the winning are £ 250 (100 x 2.50). The net winnings are £ 150 (£ 250 winnings - £100 stake).
|
| 7.5 |
The accumulated winning amount of a multiple bet is calculated by multiplying the stake by the product of the odds of the selected events. E.g.: if one bets £ 100 on three events having as odds 1.25, 2.00, 2.40, the winnings amount is £ 600 (£ 100 x 1.25 x 2.00 x 2.40). The net winnings are £ 500 (£ 600 winnings - £ 100 stake).
|
| 7.6 |
There is no limit for the total odds of single or multiple bets.
|
| 7.7 |
The maximum weekly winning for each client or betting syndicate is €50.000 (or equivalent in all other currencies) independently of the number of placed bets. Globet reserves the right to revoke the winning amounts exceeding €50.000 on the account of a client or of a number of clients controlled by a betting syndicate. The week is intended to start from Monday at 15:00:00 GMT to the following Monday at 14:59:59. The maximum winning amount for a bet is €30.000 (or equivalent in all other currencies). Globet reserves the right to revoke winning amounts exceeding €50.000 relating to the total weekly winnings credited to the account of a client or of a number of clients controlled by a betting syndicate.
|
| 7.8 |
If an event is cancelled, for the purpose of calculating winnings it is considered as having odds equal to 1.00. If it is a single selection the entire stake is refunded.
|
| 7.9 |
Globet cannot be held responsible for the wrong publication of sport results. The results taken into consideration will be those published by the relevant Governing Sporting Body at the end of the event. Any other subsequent modification of the results (due to disciplinary measures or any legal intervention) will have no effect on the calculation of the bets. In the case of a suspected criminal action affecting the events, Globet reserves the right to suspend crediting the related winnings until the necessary investigations have been finalised. If these investigations confirm irregularities the bets and the related winnings may be cancelled.
|
| 7.10 |
Dead Heat: where an event normally has a single winner but the result is a dead heat and the rules do not cater for this, the odds of the winning selections are divided by the total number of winners (e.g. if one selects a winner with odds equal to 1.90 and the result of the event is a dead heat, the odds will be divided by 2, thus becoming 0.95).
|
