Chess Betting Terms
General
All bets are based on the official game result. The match result is decided by the results of all games of the match. If upon the completion of a tournament several players share first place, and a tie-break for first place is not played, then the dead heat rule applies. If a game is delayed or postponed for any reason, then all bets will stand until the end of the game or the end of the tournament.
Moneyline
Predict the winner of the match according to the points collected by players based on played games. 1 point is awarded for a win, 0.5 points for a draw, and 0 points for a loss. There are 3 possible outcomes: - Designated home team player wins X – Draw - Designated away team player wins
Spread
Predict the winner (player who will collect most points) of the match/game, applying the given handicap (spread). If the statutory number of games/matches according to the official rules of the tournament is changed, all bets will be cancelled.
Outright
Predict the winner of the tournament. Bets will be settled according to the final standings, including playoffs (if played), unless otherwise stated. All bets are considered valid, even if the player withdraws or doesn’t start the tournament at all. Dead-heat rules apply.
