What happens to my bet if my player retires during the match? Player retirements mainly occur in tennis, but can also happen within other sports. In the case of a retirement, unfinished matches in which the market outcome is already determined before the interruption of play and/or where any further continuation of play could not possibly produce a different outcome to said offers, will be settled based on the result achieved until the interruption. For Example a) Example 1 - Over/Under: A retirement occurs in a match scheduled for three sets with the score 7-6, 4-4. The offers: “Total Games Set 2 – 9.5” (or any lines lower than that amount) & “Total Games Played in the Match – 22.5” (or any lines lower than that amount) will be settled with “Over” bets as winning and “Under” bets as losing. Bets on lines higher than that will be settled as void. b) Example 2 - Handicap: A retirement occurs at the start of the 3rd set in a match scheduled for 5 sets with the score at 1-1. Bets on +2.5 sets will be settled as Winners and bets on -2.5 sets will be settled as Lost Offers on any lines lower than that amount will be settled as void. c) Example 3 – A ‘Best of 5’ set match ends with Player A retiring with the score 6-2, 3-6, 1-4: Had Player A won all remaining games (should the match have continued without retirement), the score would have been 6-2, 3-6, 6-4, 6-0, making the margin 11 games. However, this is not the highest possible margin as the match could also have ended 6-2, 3-6, 6-7, 6-0, 6-0, making the margin 12 games. As such, any bets on -12.5 or higher are settled as lost and any bets on -11.5 or lower are settled as void.
