Football
General Football Rules
Games must start in the same scheduling week of the league for bets to have action:
For the NFL, the scheduling week is Thursday - Wednesday.
For the NCAA, the scheduling is Tuesday - Monday
For all other football leagues, the scheduling week will be considered as Monday – Sunday
Games must have a minimum of 55 minutes official game time for bets to have action.
If a game is not completed/paused and fewer than 55 minutes of official game time have been played and is not resumed within 24 hours at the same venue, then all bets that are not unequivocally determined will be voided.
For markets that apply to a specific period (half/quarter/etc.) will not have action if the entire period isn’t played in full unless the result has already been determined or other special terms apply. Period markets played to completion will be deemed to have action if the game is not completed.
If a game is halted at any time, and replayed in full, all bets will be void.
If a game venue is changed, and the home team remains designated as such, bets will stand.
If a game venue is changed, and the home and away team’s listings are reversed, bets placed on the original listing will be void.
Forfeited games, whether won or lost, will not count as a game played or completed (or any other similar term) for settlement purposes.
Markets will include Overtime for settlement purposes unless otherwise stated. If markets do exclude Overtime they will be clearly marked with “Excl. OT” for leagues that offer Overtime.
For the sake of clarity, markets that apply to the 4th quarter DO NOT consider Overtime, while markets that apply to the 2nd half DO consider Overtime.
All settlements are based on results and statistics provided by the relevant league’s governing body.
In the absence of a statistical result being provided by the official organizing body for any market that is required for settlement, Betr Sportsbook will seek a reputable independent source for wager settlement.
Player markets, or other statistically dependent markets, are settled when the game is final, and when the necessary statistics are readily available on the league’s official website, or by the official statistical provider of the league. Any subsequent statistical changes after these markets are settled will not result in a re-settlement
In 2-way markets, push rules apply unless otherwise stated, i.e. the market wagered on results in a “tie” and the wager is considered neither a winner nor a loser.
Overview of Specific Market Rules
Moneyline/Handicap/Totals Markets:
Markets will include Overtime for settlement purposes unless otherwise stated. If markets do exclude Overtime they will be clearly marked with “Excl. OT” for leagues that offer Overtime.
In the event that after Overtime markets result in a tie, for 2-way markets, push rules apply unless otherwise stated.
Where a 3-way market is offered listing each team and the ‘tie’ as betting options, bets will be settled according to the result.
Period (Quarter & Half) Markets:
For bets based on a specific period (Quarter or Half), the entire period must be played for bets to stand.
Markets specified for the fourth quarter DO NOT include Overtime.
Markets specified for the second half DO include Overtime.
Unless otherwise stated all handicap and total markets are to be calculated based on the result from the start of the listed period to the end of the specified period. Examples:
Handicap (To win or lose by (3rd Quarter)): If the score was 14-14 at the start of the 3rd Quarter and the score was 21-17 at end of the 3rd quarter, then the scoreline referenced in the 3rd Quarter handicap wager would be 7-3.
Total Points (2nd Quarter): If the score was 10-7 at the start of the 2nd quarter and the score was 13-14 at end of the 2nd quarter, then the total points scored in the 2nd quarter would be 10.
Proposition or Prop Markets:
For Player Prop markets, only when a player does not play a snap in that game are the selections voided. All other bets stand, with the exception of Kickers.
For Head2Head markets, both players need to play a snap in their game for bets to have actions.
For Odd or Even markets, zero is considered an even number.
In the event of an abandoned game, all wagers will be declared void, unless a market result is already determined through the course of play that has taken place.
For Longest Completion/Reception/Rush, if the specified player does not record a respective statistic, then bets on that market will be declared void.
For next play markets, if the play does not occur due to the end of the half or game then bets on this play will be deemed to have no action. Additionally, if a penalty negates a play, bets on this play will be deemed to have no action.
A sack will be deemed to be a pass attempt in the NFL and rush attempt in the NCAA. If a touchdown occurs, this will be settled as a First Down occurring.
For the Drive Result market, drives are considered to start from the first offensive snap. ‘Punt’ will be settled as the winning selection is the punter kicks the ball, even if the returning team returns the ball for a touchdown. A blocked punt that results in a safety will be settled as ‘Safety’ and a blocked punt that results in an offensive touchdown will be settled as ‘Touchdown’. Any drives which are completed due to the end of the half or game will be settled as ‘Any Other’.
Current Drive - Cross X Yard Line markets will be settled according to the final sport of the ball if time expires and the yard line of any fumble. If the target yard line is crossed but there is a subsequent penalty that moves the ball back past the target, the play will not count as passing the target.
Live Betting:
Odds offered are for the whole game inclusive of any overtime played, unless otherwise stated.
As the markets are live, Betr reserves the right to close the market at any time.
When scores, game time or statistically game data is shared during a game, every effort is made to ensure the accuracy. However, no liability is accepted for incorrect information displayed.
