- A valid, original betting ticket must be presented to receive payment. Circa | Sports is not responsible for lost, stolen, altered, or unreadable tickets. In the event of a lost ticket, a reasonable effort will be made to identify and honor the ticket after a Lost Ticket Claim Form is filled out.

- Regarding wagering disputes, Circa | Sports will come to a resolution that is deemed fair to all parties. If a patron is not satisfied by this resolution, the patron may contact the Nevada Gaming Control Board to review the matter under NRS 463.362.

The alternative to “Listed Pitcher” for a given team is referred to as “Action.” If a patron lists a pitcher, it means that the specified player must throw the first pitch of the game for the associated team, for money line wagers to have action. At any point in time before a game starts, Circa | Sports will have an option available for which specific pitcher can be listed for either team. If either of these starting pitcher options change, all prior wagers on the total, alternate totals, team totals, run line, and alternate run lines will be refunded.

FUTURES
- Wagers on teams are action regardless of any name change to the team or relocation of competition venues.
- Wagers on teams are action as long as the league’s governing body declares a winner for the respective event, regardless of when that occurs.
- If an event has multiple winners or there is a tie for a winning outcome and Circa | Sports has not established a tiebreaker to determine a singular winner, the profit will be divided by the number of winning selections to determine the payout. Reduced decimal odds are necessary for calculation of parlay payouts (see Example below).
Example 1:
$500 wager placed on selection A at +240 to profit $1,200 ($1,700 payout).
Selections A, B, and C are all winning selections, so there exists a three-way tie.
Profit on selection A = $1,200/3 = $400 ($900 payout)
If part of a parlay, calculate reduced decimal odds:
For a ‘+’ money line, decimal odds = 1 + (|money line|/100)
+240 money line odds convert to 1 + (240/100) = 3.4 decimal odds
Profit = decimal odds – 1 = 3.4 – 1 = 2.4
Profit on Selection A = 2.4/3 = 0.8
Reduced decimal odds = 1 + 0.8 = 1.8
Example 2:
$2,000 wager placed on selection X at -450 to profit $444.45 ($2,444.45 payout).
Selections V, W, X, Y, and Z are all winning selections, so there exists a five-way tie.
Profit on Selection X = $444.45/5 = $88.90 ($2,088.90 payout)
If part of a parlay, calculate reduced decimal odds:
For a ‘-’ money line, decimal odds = 1 + (100/|money line|)
-450 money line odds convert to 1 + (100/450) = 1.2222 decimal odds
Profit = decimal odds – 1 = 1.2222 – 1 = 0.2222
Profit on Selection X = 0.2222/5 = 0.04444
Reduced decimal odds = 1 + 0.04444 = 1.04444
IN-GAME WAGERING
- All events must be played to their originally scheduled completion for action, unless otherwise stipulated on display boards, printed sheets, or the mobile app.
PARLAYS & TEASERS
- Parlay payouts are calculated using true odds, also known as decimal odds.
PARLAY ODDS (all legs -110)
Legs | Odds |
2 | 2.64/1 |
3 | 5.95/1 |
4 | 12.28/1 |
5 | 24.35/1 |
6 | 47.41/1 |
7 | 91.42/1 |
8 | 175.44/1 |
9 | 335.84/1 |
10 | 642.05/1 |
Steps to calculate any parlay payout:
a. Convert money line odds to decimal odds for each leg
For selections with a ‘+’ price, 1 + (|money line|/100)
For selections with a ‘-‘ price, 1 + (100/|money line|)
b. Multiply the numbers
c. Subtract 1 to get profit per unit wagered
Example: $200 four leg parlay with odds of -350, -110, +120, +245
a. + (100/350) = 1.2857
1 + (100/110) = 1.90909
1+ (120/100) = 2.2
1 + (245/100) = 3.45
b. 1.2857*1.90909*2.2*3.45 = 18.63
c. 18.63 – 1 = 17.63 = profit per unit wagered
Thus, a $200 wager would profit $3,526 ($3,726 payout)
- The maximum win ratio is 2,000 to 1.
- If a parlay leg results in a “Tie”, “Push” or “No Action” on a parlay involving three or more legs, the parlay is reduced by one leg, with a corresponding true odds payout.
- If a parlay leg results in a “Tie”, “Push” or “No Action” on a parlay involving two legs, the parlay reduces to a straight wager, with a corresponding price.
- If a teaser leg results in a “Tie”, “Push” or “No Action” on a teaser involving three or more legs, the teaser is reduced by one leg, with a corresponding teaser table payout.
- If a teaser leg results in a “Tie”, “Push” or “No Action” on a teaser involving two legs, the teaser is refunded.
- Parlay cards and teaser cards have unique rules that are printed on each card, independent of the House Rules.
- Cross-sport teaser odds will revert to the lowest odds of the involved individual sport tables.
