Play credits only
Every balance is simulated. Credits have no cash value, cannot be purchased, withdrawn, or exchanged for anything. New accounts start at zero and receive credits only from an administrator, who can also adjust them at any time.
Stakes and limits
The house minimum is 1 credits per ticket. The house limit is not set. A personal limit set by an administrator replaces it. A limit of zero means no cap. A ticket over the limit, under the minimum, or larger than the balance is refused and nothing is deducted.
Lines and line changes
Lines refresh continuously from the odds feed. A ticket is accepted only at the exact price shown when it is submitted. If the line moves between selecting and placing, the ticket is refused and you are told the price changed. When the feed goes stale, placement locks across the board until fresh prices arrive.
When betting closes
Games take bets on the day they are played, by California time, and the next day's games open at midnight. Futures stay open for their whole run. Once a game starts, parlays, teasers, and round robins on it close. A single on a game in progress is accepted only at a live price the feed has just refreshed. First 5 innings bets close at the first pitch.
Straight bets
Point spread, moneyline, and total grade off the final score reported by the feed, and so do alternate spreads, alternate totals, and team totals from a game page. A spread or total that lands exactly on the number is a push and the stake is returned. A tie on a moneyline is a push. Returns include the stake, so a 100 credit ticket at +150 returns 250. First half lines grade on the half time score, and second half lines on the final score minus the half time score.
First 5 innings
Baseball first 5 innings lines, the moneyline, the run line, and the total runs, grade on the score after both teams have batted in five full innings. A tie after five on the moneyline is a push and the stake is returned. If the game ends before five full innings are complete, every first 5 ticket on it is voided and the stake is returned. First 5 innings bets close at the first pitch.
Parlays
A parlay takes 2 to 4 selections, one per game, and every leg must win. Decimal odds are multiplied without rounding each leg and the return is rounded once at payout. A pushed or voided leg drops out and the parlay is recalculated on the remaining legs. One losing leg loses the ticket.
Round robins
A round robin takes 3 to 8 selections and breaks them into every possible parlay of the size you choose. Each of those parlays is its own ticket at its own stake, so five selections taken two at a time is ten separate tickets. The total cost is checked against your balance before anything is placed.
Futures
Futures are outright season long markets. A futures ticket stays open until the market is decided and is then graded by hand by an administrator. Futures cannot be teased. If a market is cancelled or a listed entrant never competes, open tickets on it are voided and the stake is returned.
Voids, pushes, and reversals
A game that is cancelled, postponed beyond the listed date, or abandoned before it is official voids every open ticket on it. The house may reverse a ticket accepted in error, including an obviously wrong line, a duplicate, or a grading mistake. A reversal returns the account to exactly where it stood before the ticket, including clawing back a payout already credited, and can leave a balance negative. Every reversal is recorded with a reason.
Account rules
One account per person, identified by username. A suspended account can view its history but cannot place a ticket. The house may adjust credits, change limits, suspend an account, or settle a ticket by hand, and every one of those actions is logged.
