Multiple bets which combine different selections within the same event are not accepted where the outcome of one affects or is affected by the other.
For example, in a soccer match involving Arsenal and Everton:
If Arsenal are 'evens' to win at home to Everton and the correct score odds for Arsenal to win 1-0 is 8/1, by having the double Arsenal to win and the correct score to be 1-0, a customer would be getting 17-1 about an 8-1 chance, for if Arsenal win 1-0 they would automatically have won the match.
If such a winning bet is taken in error it will be settled as two single bets with the stake equally divided.
An exception to this rule is where special odds are offered for the combined eventuality, e.g. First Player to Score/Correct Score Double, known as a Scorecast.
When the related parts of a winning bet are resolved at different times but still within the same tournament, the bet/s will be settled with the stake being divided by the number of legs, with each leg being settled individually at the confirmed price of each leg.
For example, a double selects:
Federer to win the semi final of Wimbledon at 1/1, and
Federer to win the Wimbledon tournament outright at 3/1;
If this bet is taken inadvertently as a double at 7/1 (E.g. 700/100) and the double is a winning bet, the bet will be broken down into 2 single bets of R50 each, (50/50 & 150/50).
Multiple bets which combine different selections within different events are also not accepted where the outcome of one affects or is affected by the other.
For example, a double selecting:
King's Best to win the 2000 Guineas
King's Best to win the Derby
As the odds for King's Best to win the Derby depend on whether he wins the 2000 Guineas, the odds for him to win the Derby at the time the bet was struck cannot be used to calculate the double. A special price to win both races will be quoted instead.
In the case of all multiples including selections with related outcomes, if a bet is taken inadvertently, World Sports Betting reserves the right to void part of or the whole of the bet.
In the event that a client has exceeded their Tote Stake limit, all winning duplications will be reversed and stakes refunded. Only the original winning tote bet shall stand.
