This article answers frequently asked questions regarding common sports betting scenarios, including player changes, event disruptions and bet settlements.
Do you offer Super Sub as an available bet?
LeoVegas does not currently offer Super Sub.
However, if this is something you would like to request, please refer to our How can I request odds on an unlisted market or event? article and contact our customer support team.
As this option isn’t available, if you place a bet on a player and they are subbed off, the bet will not transfer to the new player, meaning the bet will still settle as a loss.
For example: If you bet on Erling Haaland to score and he doesn’t before being subbed for Omar Marmoush – even if Marmoush scores, the bet would still settle as a loss.
What happens if a player retires in a sport?
When placing 'Future Winners' bets on sports such as F1, skiing, motorcycling, cycling and more, if a player retires before the bet settles, the bet is considered a loss.
A player retires in a tennis match, why has my bet not been voided?
If the player you bet on withdraws before the first set is completed, the bet is voided meaning you’ll receive your full stake back.
After the first set is completed, any withdrawals/disqualifications don't count, and the bet will settle based on tournament progression.
For example: If you bet on Carlos Alcaraz to beat Novak Djokovic at Wimbledon and Alcaraz retires due to injury in the third game of the second set, your bet will settle as a loss as Djokovic progresses to the next round.
The event has been suspended, postponed or abandoned. Why has my bet not been voided?
Sometimes unforeseen circumstances can lead to competitions/matches being postponed, interrupted or cancelled. There are special rules for this.
Match canceled
Current rules state that a bet on a sporting event is considered valid if the event takes place within twelve hours of the date set in the official program.
The bet remains valid when the outcome of the game has already occurred on the field.
Bets that have not been settled before the match is abandoned will be refunded.
Match cancelled
If a match is abandoned after it has already started and the official result is determined within 12 hours, the bet will stand. Otherwise, your bet will be void and your stake will be refunded.
Suppose you have backed Liverpool to beat Manchester City. After 72 minutes the match is abandoned due to bad weather, with Liverpool leading 2-1. If the result is decided to stand and the score is 2-1, then the bet will stand. If no decision is made within this 12-hour period your bet will be void.
Match postponed
If an event is postponed before the scheduled start time, your bet will be void if the event does not take place within 12 hours of the original start time and date. However, if the match is played within 12 hours of the scheduled start time, all bets will stand.
What happens if one of the selections in my accumulator is voided?
Should one of the selections in your accumulator be voided (system or combination), that selection will be removed from the bet, and the new odds will be based on the remaining selections.
Please note: When betting on football through the Bet Builder functionality, if one of the selections is voided, the remaining selections will also be voided.
