Fairdeal Sportsbook Golf Odds sports betting
• FairDeal Golf Tournaments: In the event a tournament does not go
the specified number of completed holes (usually 72), and the tournament is
shortened by PGA officials, then the leader at the end of the number of holes
determined to be official by the PGA shall be the winner.
• FairDeal head-to-head matchups: In head to head matchups, both
golfers must tee off in order have action. In the event that one player or the
other is disqualified or withdraws after teeing off, the other golfer will be
the winner of the matchup. The most completed holes and the lowest score for
either golfer is the winner of the matchup. If the players complete the same
number of holes, then the player with the lowest score wins. For
FairDeal sports betting purposes, if the players are still tied then
the sports betting wager will be a push, unless they are tied for first place. If
both golfers in a match-up are in a playoff a) winner of play-off wins the
match-up and b) all other playoff participants tie each other.
• FairDeal Dead Heat Rule: Where there is a dead heat for any
sports betting wager – for example where there are 3 players tied for 4th place
and a market has been offered on players to finish in the top 4 of a tournament
– then the amount wagered is divided by the number of participants involved in
the dead heat. The full golf odds are then paid to the divided portion, with the
remainder of the stake money being lost. For Place/Show/Top 4/Top 10 betting
• FairDeal dead heat, where the number of tied participants exceeds
the places available for that particular FairDeal sports betting wager,
the stake money/amount gambled is multiplied by the number of places on offer
but divided by the number of tied participants. The full odds are then paid to
the divided stake, with the remainder of the stake money being lost. Example - a
3 way tie for third on a top four bet would result in the stake money /amount
wagered being multiplied by 2 but divided by 3.
• FairDeal Dead Heat rules do not apply to sportsbook events where a
price is offered for the draw or tie.
• FairDeal Finishing Positions - If a player is involved in a 5 way
tie for 5th, as an example, he is sharing 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th place. His
finishing position is calculated by adding the sum of all the positions (i.e.
5+6+7+8+9 =35) and then dividing this figure by the no of players involved in
the tie. His actual finishing position would be 35 divided by 5, i.e. 7. All
sports betting wagers will be void if 72 holes are not completed.
