Every day there are a huge number of different sporting events that betters bet on. Basically, they all start and end at a set time. However, due to a number of reasons, a match can be canceled or abandoned, and most players have absolutely no idea how the bet is calculated in such a situation. So, the bookmaker's office "Liga Stavov" clearly describes in the rules what will happen to the bet and how the player should act in this case.

Why can a match be interrupted or stopped?

There are different situations in sports, but basically the match is canceled for the following reasons:

• Weather conditions. Heavy rain, snow, frost, and wind can make a match impossible.
• Technical problems. They are mainly related to the lack of lighting.
• Removing a team or a certain athlete from the tournament.
• Disqualification of one of the parties.
• Fans hooligans in the stands, throwing various objects on the field.

Ifthe match is interrupted, what about the bet? Each situation is considered individually.

Match completely canceled

Regardless of the reason for the cancellation of a sporting event, the bet is calculated with odds of 1.00. Moreover, all bookmakers adhere to this principle. If the user has placed a single, the funds are returned.

With express and system, the situation is somewhat different. Even if one of the matches is canceled, the coupon continues to play. If all other events play out in the end, the bookmaker's office "Liga Stavov" will make a payment, the canceled match will go with a coefficient of 1.00. Naturally, the total profit will decrease.

Match abandoned

This happens very often, many events are suspended for a certain period of time. A quite logical question arises: "If the match is interrupted, what will happen to the bet next?" Each bookmaker handles this situation differently. You must carefully study the rules or ask a question to the support service of the bookmaker.

Based on the general rules of all bookmakers, we can highlight the following points:

• Stop time. Each bookmaker has a minimum period of time, if it is passed, the bet will be calculated. So, for example, in football this interval is 55 minutes.
• Played half-time, set, but the match was stopped. All bets placed on the first half, period or set are settled. Total stakes are either returned or the event will be played out soon.
• The event has been rescheduled. It all depends on when the game will finish playing. Some bookmakers set a time limit of 24 hours, others - 48 hours. If there is no official decision, then after the time presented above, the bet will be returned to the bookmaker.

It should be noted that bookmakers make decisions on interrupted games individually. Sometimes the decision is extremely unexpected and not always pleasant for the player.

Match rescheduled

What will happen to the bet if for some reason the match did not take place on the set day, but was rescheduled for another time? In such a situation, the decision depends on two things - time and place.

The game will take place within 48 hours - the bet will be valid. With the exception of those bookmakers whose rules set a period of 24 hours. Although even they can consider the event individually and leave the bet in place.

If the sporting event is held much later (in a week, a month), then the bet is returned. If express - the game is removed from the coupon.

Much more difficult with the venue of the game. If the game is played on a neutral field, the bettor may receive a refund or the bet may stand. If the hosts have to play in a foreign field, a refund will follow.

How are tennis bets calculated?

If the match is interrupted, what happens to a bet in tennis is of interest to many, since this is a very popular sport. In this case, the situation is somewhat different and depends onfollowing points:

• Player injury. If he announced it in advance, the game is canceled and the better receives his funds back. However, if he entered the court, received an injury and refuses to finish the match, he is considered defeated.
• Game stopped due to weather or technical issues. The bet will be valid as long as the tournament continues. The game will be played in any case, unless one of the athletes is injured or withdraws from the tournament for personal reasons.
• Court coverage. The match is played out exclusively on the surface indicated in the tournament schedule. Moreover, the game can be played out in the hall, the main thing is on the right surface.

In closing

Before you make a bet, be sure to study all the rules, highlight the key points for yourself. Compare the regulations of different bookmakers, as at certain points the difference can be significant. So, if the match is abandoned, what happens to the bet? How will it be paid? Most often, the game is played out within 48 hours, then the full settlement takes place. Only in isolated situations, the event is completely canceled or postponed to a later date, then a refund occurs.
