If bets help customers who want to have action on more than one game but based on the result of the 1st wager. There are 2 types of if bets, "If Win Only" and "If Win/Ties or cancelled.
If Win Only example:501. Dallas Cowboys -5 $110 to win $100 -If Win Only- 504. Carolina Panthers +4 $110 to win $100.
If the Cowboys lose, the wager stops there and is scored a loser -$110; if the Cowboys win +$100 the wager continues to the Panthers wager; if the Panthers win, the wager is a $200 winner; if the Panthers lose the wager is a $10 loss. If the Cowboys win by exactly 5, then there will be no action on the Carolina Panthers and the 110 will go back to your account.
If Win/Ties or cancelled example:501. Dallas Cowboys -5 $110 to win $100If Win/Ties or cancelled504. Carolina Panthers +4 $110 to win $100
In this case, customers will have action on the second part of the wager if Dallas wins by 5 or more points.

A Reverse wager connects two contestants in two separate IF bets.
The first IF would connect contestant A to contestant B, the second bet would connect contestant B to contestant A.

Soccer Rules
We offer all the major leagues in Europe along with US and International matches. The current list of leagues offered include English Premier, English Division One, Spanish 1st Division, Italian Serie A, Major League Soccer, UEFA Champions League, international matches and any match considered significant.
Money Line involving a tie (three-way price): The most common wager offered by Pay per Head Sportsbook is a money line involving a tie. In this case, there are three options on the outcome of the match – team A, team B or a Tie. These wagers are determined after 90 minutes of regulation play. This includes any added time for injuries or stoppage. Penalty shoot-outs or extra time is not considered in determining the winner of this type of wager. An example of this would be a match in Major League Soccer. If after 90 minutes of regulation time the match is tied, they continue playing 5 minute overtime periods. In soccer wagers where a tie price is offered, the winner would be the tie regardless of the outcome of the extra time.
Money Line without a tie option (two-way price): If a two-way price is offered without a draw option, then the winner of the match is deemed the winner for wagering purposes. This type of wager includes any extra time or penalty kicks to determine the winner. If the match still ends in a tie then moneys will be refunded.
Total Goals: When wagering on total goals scored for a match, the outcome is determined after 90 minutes of regulation time including stoppage and injury time.
Postponed Games: If a match is postponed and rescheduled to occur within 48 hours of the original scheduled date, all bets stand. If the match is not rescheduled to be played within 48 hours, wagers on this match will be deemed 'no action'.
Abandoned Games: Should a match be abandoned before the regulation 90 minutes of play, the wagers on this match will be considered 'no action'. However, if an official result is deemed by the local governing body and game points are awarded, then the official result will stand and the wagers on the match will be settled using the official result.
Golf Rules
All proposition betting must be played to its designated entirety. However, if a player is disqualified or withdrawals during the match the side has action and totals have no action.
For all props that are not completed on the day wagered, due to weather, the action carries over to the next day or until completed.
Any future prop based on a certain number of rounds played and does not meet the required length the prop will be deemed no action. For example, Winning 4 round score and the tournament is cut to 54 holes due to bad weather that prop has no action and all wagers will be refunded.
In the event a tournament does not go the specified number of completed holes (usually 72), and the tournament is shortened by PGA officials, the leader at the end of number of holes determined to be official by PGA officials shall be the winner:
Example:
Tournament is scheduled for 72 holes, but only 54 holes can be played due to weather concerns. The leader at the end of 54 holes would be declared the winner of the tournament. In the event that two (or more) golfers are tied for the lead at the end of regulation play, sudden death playoff occurs to determine the winner of the tournament.
In some cases PGA officials may also have the individuals play a specified number of holes to determine the tournament winner.
Example:
Mike and John are tied at the end of regulation play and sudden death occurs. Mike scores a 4 on the first sudden hole and John scores a 5. Mike is the winner of the tournament, and John is awarded a 2nd place finish.
In the event PGA officials order a specified number of holes to be played to determine a winner, the golfer with the lowest score after the specified number of holes have been completed shall be declared the winner, and 2nd, 3rd, etc would be determined by the scores of the remaining golfers. In head to head matches, both golfers MUST tee off in order to have action. The most completed holes and the lowest score for either golfer is the winner of the match up.
Example:
John -120
Mike +100
If John and Mike both tee off for the tournament in question, the above match up is "in action". If both golfers fail to make the cut to advance to the final rounds of play, the golfer with the lowest score wins.
Example:
John completes 36 holes and has a score of +8
Mike completes 36 holes and has a score of +9
In this case, John wins the match up since he has a lower score than Mike does. If John and Mike complete regulation play, and each have a score of -3, the match up would be a tie, and monies refunded, EXCEPT in the case where John and Mike were tied for 1st place at the end of regulation play (then sudden death would be used to determine the winner). If a wager is taken on a match up for the overall tournament, both golfers MUST tee off for action. In the event that one player or the other is disqualified or withdraws, the other golfer will be the winner of the match up.
In the event a match up is taken on a round by round basis (1st Round, 2nd Round, 3rd Round, etc) or (1st and 2nd rounds, or 3rd and 4th rounds), both golfers MUST tee off for action, and in the event that a wager is taken on the 1st and 2nd (or the 3rd and 4th rounds) for the same two players, and the player tees off in the 3rd round, and then withdraws, the player remaining would be the winner of that match up in the 3rd round, and there would be NO action on the 4th round wager (since one of the two players withdrew.
