All bets are settled on the official classification at the time of the podium presentation. If a race is interrupted or postponed but is held within 80 hours after the original start date, then all bets on the event are valid. If the race does not take place within 80 hours after the original start date, then all bets will be cancelled.
Tournament Rules:
All bets are settled on the official classification at the time of the podium presentation (flower eremony). When a betting event within a sporting tournament (e.g. World, European or National Championships, Olympics etc.) is postponed within the official time allocated for the event, all transacted bets remain valid. If a betting event is unable to commence within the official time allocated, all bets are cancelled.
Biathlon Wagers
Ante post/Outright winner (others on request)
If a selection is disqualified for whatever reason, then all bets on this selection will stand.
Finish in Top 3/5/10
If a selection is disqualified for whatever reasons, then all bets on this selection will stand. Should there be a tie for the last position in the market (e.g. 2 competitors tie for 3rd in Top 3 market), then dead heat rules will apply.
Triple Head to Head
If one or more participants withdraw before they have started the event, then all bets will be cancelled. The winner will be the athlete/nation who is placed highest in the race. If an athlete/nation is disqualified or does not finish the race for any reason, then this selection is deemed a loser and the bet is decided between the remaining two athletes/nations. If two athletes/nations are disqualified or do not finish the race for any reason, then the remaining athlete/nation is deemed the winner. If all athletes/nations are disqualified or do not finish the event for any other reason, then all bets will be cancelled.
