Sportsbook Rules
When placing a bet, each player agrees to these Sportsbook Rules and to the General Terms and Conditions of Rebels Gaming Ltd (hereinafter referred to as ”Betrebels”), which apply to the Betrebels Sportsbook. The Betrebels Sportsbook is operated by Rebels Gaming Ltd.
Each sports bet has two parties: On one hand the bookmaker Rebels Gaming Ltd, 177A St. Moritz, Tower Road, Sliema SLM 1603, Malta, who accepts bets on sports events in accordance with its license, and, on the other hand, the player.
Upon placing his bet, the player confirms that he does not have any knowledge of the result of the respective sports event.
The player acknowledges also that sportsbetting amounts to gaming, that the risk of losing money is implicit and that his involvement is entirely voluntary. On the other hand, there is no right to participation on the side of the player and he accepts that the bookmaker is entitled to restrict, limit or block the access of certain players at his own, exclusive and unfettered discretion.
1. Placing a bet
Before placing a bet, each player is obliged to read and acknowledge not only the General Terms and Conditions, but also these sportsbetting rules, including the provisions regarding minimum stakes, maximum payouts as well as maximum stakes.
The bookmaker will accept a bet duly placed by the player by mouse-click, subject to these rules and the General Terms and Conditions, without issuing a confirmation and at the registered address of the company, provided that his Betrebels Account holds sufficient credit. Any correspondence issued by the bookmaker at a later point in time, (e.g. notices, account information, etc.) will not have any effect whatsoever on the previous conclusion of the contract and its legal effect at the registered address of the bookmaker.
If changes are made to the odds while a bet is being placed (usually 5 to 10 seconds), the bet will automatically be accepted at the odds chosen by the customer. If the odds are lowered, the bet will not be accepted. Instead the user has the chance to update the betting slip and confirm it once more.
Any bet accepted in such manner may not be changed or cancelled by the player at a later point in time. The bookmaker, however, reserves the right to cancel any bets up to the start of the event, without giving any reasons. After the event has started, Betrebels may cancel bets provided that the player is in violation of these rules or the general terms and conditions as applicable from time to time, or, in particular, if he is under the suspicion of manipulation/rigging, of acting in collusion or forming a syndicate of customers, keeping duplicate gaming accounts or using front men in order to place bets.
Only the records kept by the bookmaker shall be relevant concerning the content of all bets. A statement of account may only be modified in order to remedy an obvious error and/or a typographical error and/or an error in calculation. Only the amount registered and/or the amount confirmed by the bookmaker will be regarded as the stake.
The bookmaker's promotions, and special offers are only valid for the respective period specified. Where promotions and special offers are specifically addressed to an individual or to specific sportsbook account, offers are only valid with respect to those individuals or accounts so specified.
The decision as to honour any special promotion or offer shall be entirely up to Rebels Gaming Ltd. The bookmaker also reserves the sole discretionary right to discontinue or cancel any promotion or special offer at any time and for any reason whatsoever, without prior notice.
All rules and principles of the Betrebels Sportsbook apply equally to the Cash-Out function. Betrebels cannot guarantee that the Cash-Out feature is available at all times. Due to, for example, technical issues, human error, suspicions of fraud or other circumstances beyond Betrebels' control, Cash-Out might not be offered for a particular event or betting market, even if the feature had been advertised before-hand. Betrebels reserves the right to withdraw or suspend Cash-Out offers without prior notice.
Unless Cash-Out is available and exercised by Betrebels upon request, the player's bet stands as originally placed.
If bets have been cashed out with incorrect amounts due to technical reasons, an error in the underlying odds, or for any other reason, Betrebels reserves the right to suspend the Cash-Out option and reverse any transactions made. In these cases, the player's bet stands as originally placed. The same rule applies if there is sufficient reason to suspect that the Cash-Out is requested after the outcome of an event is known by the player.
Betrebels reserves the right to accept or decline the Cash-Out option on an individual basis. Cash-Out is not available on free bets and bets on bonus money.

2. Special Rules
If a sports event is not held as posted on the internet (e.g. if the venue or the opponent changes), the bet will be void and all stakes will be refunded. However, bets will not be void if the home team waives its right to play in its own stadium or arena and chooses to play a match on another team's ground, if the home team's arena/stadium is temporarily closed or if the match is held at a neutral site.
If bets are placed after the start of an event or if the stake is not paid before the start of an event, the bet will be void, rated at odds of 1.00 and the stake will be refunded. In live (running) bets, each bet placed (= received) after the event on which the bet was placed occurs, will be void, rated at odds of 1.00 and the stake will be refunded.
The winner of a sports event is determined by decision of the jury at 24:00 midnight on the day of the event (local time at the venue of the event). This also applies to long-term bets. Any change in the results arising after that time for any reasons whatsoever will have no effect on the winnings.
In soccer (European football), ice hockey and handball the results after the scheduled duration of the game are relevant. Any extra-time, penalty shootout, etc. will have no impact on the winnings, with the exception of special bets offered, which are marked accordingly.
If a game/match is abandoned, special bets on scores that have already taken place, such as "first goal scorer" or "match-half betting" will be settled on the basis of the score of the shortened game/match.
In American football, basketball and baseball overtime counts for settlement purposes. An exception from this rule may apply for special bets that are clearly marked accordingly.
For NHL handicap bets the score including overtime is official. For bets on NHL games (three-way with tie option), NHL – how many goals and NHL – first goal, the score at the end of the regular time (60 minutes) is the official one.
If there is no point spread winner (e.g. a team with a minus six points handicap wins exactly with a six-point score), the score will be tied and the bet rated at odds of 1.00. The stake will be refunded.
If a game that has been declared void is repeated by the end of the second day following the game (local time of the venue), the wager will stand for the re-arranged match.
If a game is not played at the scheduled date for any reason whatsoever or ends without official score and is not repeated by the end of the second calendar day following the game, the stakes will be returned, with the exception of soccer and ice hockey games that are stopped after the end of the regular time.
In tennis, bets will stand provided that the match is played in the course of the tournament.
If the result of a match in tennis, volleyball, beach volleyball, darts, badminton, snooker, bowls or table tennis is based on a no-show, retirement / surrender or disqualification of a player, or if the match is not continued until the regular end of its playing time for any other reasons, stakes will be refunded. In combination and system bets these stakes will be evaluated with an odd of 1.0.
Exceptions from this rule are events that have been concluded within the available time frame (e.g. if a player surrenders during the second set, bets on the first set stand). In addition, bets are rated as lost if they could not have been won, even if the match was continued up to regular playing time (e.g. set bet "player A wins 2-0" and player A surrenders during the second set after having lost the first set. All other options, i.e 2-1, 0-2, 1-2 will be rated as cancelled and evaluated with an odd of 1.0).
On the other hand, bets are rated as won if they could not have been lost, even if the match was continued up to regular playing time (e.g. the bet "over 9.5 games in a set" is won if the game is decided by surrender at a score of 4:4).
The same principle applies also to game handicap bets, scores set/points and comparable bets.
If a tennis match is cancelled even before the first serve is made, all bets will be void, rated at odds of 1.00 and the stake will be refunded.
A baseball game is cancelled and the stakes refunded if the game is not begun or continued until the end of the day (local time of betting event) of the original scheduling.
If a sporting event is abandoned but officially scored, this score will be used for settlement purposes.
If a game is abandoned before the end of regular time, bets on North American sports (NBA, NFL, NHL, baseball as well as college sports) will be official after the following limits: NBA - at least 43 minutes of play WNBA; college basketball - at least 35 minutes of play NFL; college football - at least 55 minutes of play; Baseball - after at least 5 innings of play and/or 4.5 innings if the home team is leading.
When wagering on total runs or run-lines, the games must go nine (9) innings or 8.5 innings, if the home team is leading in order to have action; otherwise the game is scored as no action.
The final score will always be determined as the score after the last completed inning unless the home team scores to tie or take the lead in the bottom half of the inning, in which case the final score is determined as the score at the time the game is called.
For a so-called "dead heat", winnings will be divided accordingly. If, for instance, two starters in a race end up on the same podium position (winner) based on identical timings, then the selected odd on "winner" is being divided by 2: 2.5/2 = 1.25. Bets on podium finish 1-3 will be divided accordingly if 2 or more participants share the third place. If 5 starters share position 8, the winning for a bet on "top 10 finish" will be calculated with 3/5 of the original odd. If, on other hand, 2 starters share position 2, the original odd for a bet on "podium finish" will remain in place as the third position remains vacant.
All bets, also combination bets, which are not head-to-head bets, are "play or pay". In other words: no refund will be given, if the competitor on whom the player has placed his bet does not participate in the event for any reason whatsoever.
If one of the selected events in a combination bet is cancelled, abandoned or becomes void, or is not held for other reasons and is not run by the end of the second calendar day following the event, the bet will be void, rated at odds of 1.00 and the stake will be refunded. This also applies to sports events that have been mistakenly listed in the wrong order on the betting program (list of odds), but not in the case of a home team waiving its right to play in its own stadium or arena, if the home team's arena/stadium is temporarily closed or if the match is held at a neutral site. If all the single bets in a combination bet are cancelled, abandoned or declared void, or are not held for other reasons and are not run as specified above, the stakes will be returned.
For head-to-head bets both starters have to participate in the sports event. Should one or both starters not participate in the event, the bet will be void. The winner of a head-to-head bet on Formula 1 Grand Prix races is the driver with the higher finishing position at the end of the race, or the one who completes the most number of laps in case that both drivers fail to finish the race. In the event that the two drivers retire on the same lap, the driver with the better placing after completion of the last lap will be the winner.
If no goals are scored in "first goal scorer" or "time of first goal" bets (0-0 score), such bets will be deemed lost.
Individual types of bets and special bets are ruled by separate terms and conditions indicated in the individual offer.
Payouts are in compliance with any maximum amounts determined by the bookmaker.
3. Minimum Stakes / Maximum Winnings / Stake Limits
The minimum stake for a single bet and combination bet is: EUR 0.50
The minimum stake for each column in a system bet is: EUR 0.3
Maximum Winnings
The maximum winning per player in any one week (Monday 0:00 to Sunday 24:00) is the following net amount: EUR 100,000.
For some betting offers there are certain variable stake limits. If these amounts are exceeded, the player will be immediately notified when placing the respective bet. The player may then reduce its stake accordingly so as to be able to place the bet within the stake limit.
If a player places several bets at once and the total winnings of these bets exceed the maximum winning or the maximum stake limit, the bookmaker has the right, at any time, to reduce those bets accordingly as required for complying with the maximum winning and/or stake limits.
If customers act as a syndicate or in collusion or if individual customers register several times or set up fictitious accounts in their own name or in the name of a third person, by communicating with one or several persons or by placing combination bets, or using front men, acting as front man for any third person or placing bets on another person's account, or if customers use impermissible software tools the bookmaker will have the exclusive right (i) to reduce such bets at any time and in accordance with the maximum winning and/or stake limits or (ii) to cancel bets completely and to declare any bets placed and any winnings of such a player as null, void and forfeited.
In principal, any person acting in breach of these rules or any other terms and conditions applicable to the Betrebels Sportsbook, may be disqualified from participating in general, as well as from special promotions, offers and bonuses without any notice at any time; additionally the accounts of such players may be closed.
When bets are placed in a way that the placed stake(s) and/or the potential winning exceeds the maximum amounts set forth the bookmaker has the unfettered exclusive right to reduce the stake of such a bet or to cancel such a bet but will in no event be liable for the reduced winnings as a result of the reduction of the stake or the cancellation of bets, since the player/customer is aware of the limits.
4. Severability
Each clause contained in these rules shall be separate and severable from each of the others. If any clause is found to be void, invalid, or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever, the remaining clauses shall remain with full force and effect.

5. If the player fails to submit the necessary documentation for identification, or if the player's identity cannot be verified on the basis of the documentation provided, Betrebels will suspend or close the Betrebels Account latest one (1) month after registration. Pay-out requests will be processed only after having established the identity of the player. It is not permissible to withdraw funds from a preliminary account i.e. a Betrebels Account which has not been verified to the satisfaction of Betrebels.

Winnings gained from betting, casino, live casino or virtual sports are credited directly on the Betrebels Account. All winnings credited on the Betrebels Account may be immediately used for placing further bets.

Betrebels reserves the right to close Betrebels Accounts, cancel transactions and retain the payment of funds if the player has made his account available to third parties, makes transactions on behalf of or in the name of third parties, in conjunction with third parties, in groups/syndicates of players by using front man, or by using impermissible software tools, or in violation of other provisions of the General Terms and Conditions or the applicable Rules. Betrebels reserves the right to close any Betrebels Account of players at any time without giving any reasons.
11. Every player can open only one account. The use of identical e-mail addresses in various Betrebels Accounts is prohibited. The player shall use an e-mail address to which only he has access. Should any player open another Betrebels Account in his own name or in someone else's name or in conjunction with one or several persons after his Betrebels Account was closed/limited for any reason whatsoever, Betrebels reserves the right not only to close those accounts but also, at any time, to cancel any transactions (bets, wagers), to exclude the player from participating in further games and call in any free money credited. Betrebels further reserves the right to cancel any transactions, exclude a player from placing bets/the participation in a game and/or block the player's Betrebels Account if there is a justified suspicion of an event or a bet placed being manipulated/rigged, or a suspicion of circumventing the maximum win/stake, using front men, acting as front man for a third party or acting on a third party's account, or the use of impermissible software tools.
12. It is prohibited for players to sell, transfer and/or acquire accounts to/from other players.
13. Furthermore, in line with the Betrebels policy for the prevention of anti-money laundering and applicable legal obligations Betrebels does not permit depositing funds originating from criminal activity, depositing funds by using a card which a player is not authorized to use, knowingly receiving money from such card in any other manner, colluding with a third party to do so, or using a third party's Betrebels Account for any criminal activity or illegal purpose.
14. Betrebels notifies herewith all players that the company is unable to provide advice on fiscal or legal matters. Therefore, Betrebels may not be held liable and shall be held harmless by the players for any loss, damage, loss of profits, fees, costs and any other disadvantage that a player may incur in connection with his use of the services and products offered by Betrebels, unless stated otherwise in these General Terms and Conditions and the applicable rules for specific services and products as amended from time to time.
