Dead Heat Rule
This rule applies where two or more selections which you have had the opportunity to wager on, have finished in the same position, drawn or tied (as applicable). The number of selections which you have had the opportunity to wager on who finish in the same position, drawn or tied (as applicable) will determine your return with respect to such wager. In such an event, your wager will be settled at the full odds, but your stake will be divided by the number of selections which you have an opportunity to wager on, which have finished in the same position, drawn or tied (as applicable).
The method for calculating dead heat returns is as follows:
Return = (Original Stake * (Number of Expected Winners / Number of Actual Winners)) * Original Odds
By way of example only,
In the event that at the end of the NFL regular season, and all three players have recorded the same amount of passing yards (tied for the most):
If one or more legs of a parlay is affected by a “Dead-Heat” then the original parlay stake is reduced accordingly. For example, if one leg of a three-leg parlay is affected by a dead heat with four players tied for one place, the original parlay stake would be divided by four and the returns calculated using the original parlay odds.
Error
Any type of mistake, misinterpretation, misreading, technical hazard, registration error, transaction error, manifest error, (including without limitation any such error made by us or on our behalf).
An “Obvious Error” or “Palpable Error” can be defined by the non-exhaustive list below:
In the event of an Obvious Error, affected users will be contacted regarding the wager(s) and all wagers will be canceled or voided, after obtaining regulatory approval, if necessary.
If a user believes a wager was accepted at incorrect, stale, latent or
otherwise inaccurate odds, then Underdog will rely on its backend trading database to confirm the correct odds at the time of wager acceptance, and reserves the right to grade the at-issue wager based on that data housed and maintained by Underdog, to the extent permitted by law. Underdog has the right to void or cancel any wagers where odds differ between the customer’s betslip and Underdog’s database. To resolve such issues, Underdog Customer Support can be contacted at [email protected].
If a user believes Underdog has posted an incorrect wager result, please contact Underdog Customer Support at [email protected]. Underdog will make any necessary adjustments to a user’s account balance to account for any incorrect payments or deductions made based on an incorrect wager result.

Live Wagering, Live or In-Play

Push Rules
Means when you have placed a wager on a spread, total or handicap and your wager ends in a tie when the spread is taken into account and no tie option was available to place a wager on. Your stake will be returned in this case.
Regular Time and Full Time

(1) a wager where after a player has placed a wager, the wagering event is canceled, postponed or rescheduled to a different date prior to completion of the wagering event;
(A) in the case of a wager on a portion of a wagering event, that wager shall be valid when the event is canceled, postponed, or rescheduled if the outcome of the affected portion was determined prior to the cancellation, postponement, or rescheduling;
(B) the Specific Sports Rules below set forth additional information about the timeframe for the canceling of a wager in the event a specific wagering event is rescheduled or postponed;
(2) a change in the venue where a wagering event was scheduled to be held occurs after a player has placed a wager;
(3) a wager when an individual participant fails to participate in a wagering event and the outcome of the wager is solely based on that individual participant’s performance;
(4) a wager received on whether a team will qualify to participate in post-season competitions when the number of teams allowed to participate in the post-season changes after a player has placed a wager;
(5) changes to rules by a sports governing body or equivalent regarding the format or number of participants scheduled to participate in a defined phase of a wagering event or in the event that a defined phase is not played at all;
(6) when, prior to the start of the wagering event, a player requests a wager be canceled or voided due to an error in communicating the type, amount or parameters of the wager; or
(7) when authorized or ordered by the Commission.
Where Underdog has a reasonable basis to believe there was an Obvious Error (as defined herein) in the placement or acceptance of the wager, Underdog may use its discretion to cancel the wager without prior authorization from the Director. For more information relating to this, see examples in the rules for each individual sport below.
Underdog may cancel or void a wager for a material change in circumstances for a given wagering event or wager type, provided:
(1) the Director approves the material change;
(2) Underdog documents the material change in these Wagering Rules (see the Specific Sports Rules below); and
(3) Underdog displays what constitutes a material change to a player at the time of placement of the wager.
Occasionally wagers may be placed in “pending” status. When Underdog requests that the Director authorize the cancellation or voiding of one or more wagers, wagers related to the request will be placed in a pending status until the Director rules on the request. Moreover, if Underdog suspects an Obvious Error or any illegal or suspicious wagering activity, wagers may be placed in a pending status until Underdog completes an investigation. While a wager is pending, the wager will remain unsettled. Following the Director’s ruling or the completion of Underdog’s investigation, as may be appropriate, the wager will either be voided or allowed to settle normally at the correct odds and time. If the wager is deemed an Obvious Error or otherwise permitted by the Director to be cancelled or voided, the wager will be voided.
When a wager is cancelled or voided, all funds will be returned to the customer. For parlays (situation involving wagers with multiple selections) where one or more legs or selections are cancelled or voided, please refer to our parlay rules.
Type of Wager
Explanation
Parlay Wager
Means a wager which combines two or more selections into a single wager. You need to win every selection in order to win the wager.
Handicap, Margin or Spread
Spread wagering (also known as handicap) is where one selection in an event is given a "spread" to overcome in order to win. Spread wagering may also be referred to as "handicap" or “margin”.
For example in a two way spread where you may wager on a winner or loser (there is no handicap draw option to wager on):
Outright Winner or Place
This provides you with the opportunity of wagering on a selection winning or finishing in a specified place (but not necessarily winning). For example, on golf events we may offer you the chance to wager on players finishing inside the top five or ten.
Over/Under or Total
This gives you the opportunity to be on a predefined amount of events or occurrences in a game. For example: Over/Under 2.5 goals. For an Over wager to win there must be 3 or more goals in the relevant match. For Under 2.5 goals to win there must be two or less goals in the relevant match. Over/Under or Totals can also be three way. If no draw option is provided for you to wager on, and the result lands on the exact amount, your stake will be returned. Overtime is included for settlement here, and the wager will be settled on the official game score.
Period/Half Wagering
This provides you with the opportunity of wagering on a period, quarter, or half.
Player Props
These give you the option to wager on an individual player's performance. There are over/unders, such as Passing Yards in football or Points in Basketball. There will also be Yes/No markets such as “player to score a TD” in football or “Player to hit a HR” in baseball.
