on NASCAR Wagering Events:
NASCAR
Motor Racing
Odds
on all major Nascar races are available.
Nascar
Win Odds
You may wager on a driver to win the race at fixed odds. Wagering on the
"Field" includes any driver that odds have not been assigned to.
Nascar
Match-Ups
When wagering on a match-up, both drivers involved must start the race
(cross the start/finish line) otherwise the wager is "No Action"
or "Push/Cancel" and money is refunded. In a case where the
starting driver is replaced during the race with another driver from the
same team, the position the new driver finishes in will be awarded to the
original driver. This holds for wagering on win odds and/or
match-ups.
Nascar
Match-Ups (Qualifying)
Qualifying match-ups are graded based on qualifying times (not the
starting line-up). Qualifying match-ups are deemed action as soon as the
driver starts the qualifying lap and the timer begins. If a driver has
started the qualifying lap, but does not post a time because of mechanical
failure, accident, etc. the wager will still be graded as action. If the
driver fails to start the match for any reason, then the wager will be
graded as no action, and money refunded.
Odds
To Win The Pole-Pole bets are deemed action as soon as the driver starts
the qualifying lap and the timer begins. If a driver has started the
qualifying lap, but does not post a time because of mechanical failure,
accident, etc. the wager will still be graded as action. If the driver
fails to start the match for any reason, then the wager will be graded as
no action, and money refunded.
Las
Vegas Rules apply for any rules not mentioned here.
18.
Rules on GOLF Wagering:
Wagering
on match-ups between golfers
The winner of the match-ups will be decided by which golfer ends up with
the lowest score having played equal rounds. Both golfers must tee off in
the tournament or the wager will be "No Action" or
"Push/Cancel" and all money will be refunded. If one of the
golfers misses the cut, withdraws, or is disqualified during the
tournament, the opposing golfer wins the match-up.
19.
SOCCER BETTING
Unless
otherwise specified, all bets are for regulation time (first 90 minutes)
only. Different bookmakers apply different sets of rules with regards to
soccer betting. Please make sure you understand TROPIC SPORTS full set of
rules before wagering on soccer.
Postponed
Games
If a game is postponed and rescheduled to occur within 48 hours of the
original start time, all bets stand for soccer only. If rescheduled for
more than 48 hours later, all single bets are void and wagers refunded
while affected multiple bets will be recalculated excluding that leg.
