Introduction to Rules

We pride ourselves on our customer service and our commitment to operating our business fairly and in a responsible way. All transactions and bets placed with Coral are covered by our rules. Changes to our rules will be communicated to you on our website.

You must exercise your own judgement in choosing to place a bet. You acknowledge that, in placing your bet, you are not relying on any statement of any employee of Coral relating to the subject matter of the bet. The terms of your bet may only be varied by oral or written notice given by an authorised representative of Coral. Coral reserves the right to refuse part or all of a bet.

General Rules cover all sports, but are superseded by any rules specific to individual sports.

'All In' or 'All in Play or Not'

'All in' or 'All in play or not' markets are markets that have been priced up to reflect the fact that the selection may not take any part in the event. Therefore if your selection does not play, or take part in the event, your bet will stand as a loser.

Acceptance and Validation of Bets

Late bets

Bets can only be placed on the outcome of a future event or race, unless we are offering special ‘betting in-running prices’ for that event or race. If Coral mistakenly accepts a bet for an event that has already started then the bet will be void and your stake returned, except in the following circumstances:

• Where bets are taken after the start of an event, bets will stand if nothing has happened which would significantly alter the chances of the selection winning or losing.
• In the case of football matches, bets will be valid if they are placed within five minutes of kick-off, providing there has been no score in the match or no player has been sent off. If a player has been sent off or there has been a goal, or a penalty has been awarded but not yet taken, then the bet will be void and the stake returned.

All bets placed after the result of an event is known will be void win or lose.

Late Bets via Internet and Telephone Betting

Internet bets include bets placed on any of our remote channels such as Digital TV and WAP. In the case of such bets, the bet is struck when a bet id or receipt exists in our back end systems or database.

• In the case of Horse Racing, we would allow a horse bet to stand (win or lose) if only a small part of the race had elapsed and if no significant event had occurred, such as a horse falling or refusing to race.

Late Bets in our Coral Shops

• In the case of horse races, where our EPOS systems record an automatic “no more bets time”, if a bet is taken after the start of an event it will still be valid if it is placed before the automatic “no more bets time”. For horse races of less than one mile, the automatic “no more bets time” is set at 10 seconds after the actual start of the race. For horse races of a mile or greater, the automatic “no more bets time” is set at 20 seconds after the actual start of the race. Please note, for customers betting in shops in Ireland on races of 2 miles or greater the automatic 'no more bets' time is set at 30 seconds after the actual start of the race.
• In the case of dog and virtual races, where our EPOS systems record an automatic “no more bets time”, if a bet is taken after the start of an event it will still be valid if it is placed before the automatic “no more bets time”. For dog and virtual races, the automatic “no more bets time” is set at 2 seconds after the actual start of the race.

Account Corrections

Coral has the right to recover from you any amount overpaid and has your authority to adjust your account to reflect the true outcome and rectify the mistake. An example of such a mistake might be where a price is incorrect Acceptance and Validation of Bets) or where we enter a result of an event incorrectly.

Ante Post Bets

Ante Post bets are accepted on the basis of ‘all in’, whether the horse or selection participates or not. This means that if the horse or selection does not run or participate in the race/event named, the bet is a loser. This applies even if the selection was not entered in the race, as long as there was the possibility that it could have been entered at a later stage.

Ante-Post Horse Racing

Unless advertised differently ante-post bets will be declared void in the following circumstances:

the race is abandoned and does not take place at a later date at the same venue;

• the race is declared void;
• the race is moved to a different venue;
• the selection is balloted out;
• the selection was ineligible for the race at the time the bet was struck. For example, if after all entry stages have been closed, a bet has been struck on a runner who is not in the list of entries then the bet will be considered void;
• it is not possible for the selection to win at the time the bet was struck, for example the horse is dead;
• the ante-post bet is offered 'with a run' which is a specific ante-post bet where stakes are not lost on the non-running horse.

Postponed Race(s)/Meetings - Race(S) Run Another Day

All Ante-Post Bets Placed Before Final Declaration Stage

Bets will stand if the race is run on a later date at the same venue.

All Bets Placed After Final Declaration Stage.

If a bet is placed after the final declarations, but the race is postponed to another day, all bets will be void.

Each-Way Ante Post bets are settled according to the Each-Way terms advertised at the time the bet was placed. Ante Post selections can be included in most types of bets, including our range of speciality bets. However, any built-in bonuses and consolations specific to certain speciality bets (such as double the odds one winner on a Lucky 15/31/63 bet will not apply.

Betting In Play

Bet in Play is available on a number of live events. Whilst every effort is made to ensure that the prices quoted are correct, the nature of live betting (i.e. constantly changing prices), means that on occasion, the price may have changed by the time the bet is placed. The correct price at the time the bet is accepted will be used to settle the bet.

Customers should be aware that certain 'live' feeds, be they on TV, radio or the internet are subject to delays and might be watching an event slightly behind or slightly ahead of other users. This includes live streaming provided by Coral.

A 'delay' is placed on all betting in play bets, the length of which varies depending on the sport.

As indicated in the Errors section, any live scores or clocks displayed on the site during a bet in play event are for guidance purposes only, and although we make every effort to ensure that this information is accurate, Coral accepts no liability should the displayed information be listed incorrectly.

Dead Heats

A dead heat in horse racing is when two or more runners finish tied for the same place in any race.

An example of this may be when two selections cannot be split by a photo finish and the course would determine both selections as the winner.

In order to calculate your returns in the event of a dead heat, you would need to divide your total stake by the number of selections which finished 'tied', and then multiply by the odds at which the bet was placed.

Disputes

If you wish to make a query or complaint, as a first step you should as soon as reasonably practicable contact the shop’s Duty Manager if it is regarding a shop, or our Customer Support Team for any non-shop related points, for assistance. If you are unable to resolve your query satisfactorily with our shop manager you should then contact our Customer Support Team. If, having spoken to a member of the team, your query or complaint is not resolved, you can ask for the matter to be escalated to a manager or supervisor. Our manager/supervisor will look into your query/complaint in more detail and contact you back with a resolution within 24 hours. You will be given the name and status of the person to whom your query/complaint has been referred.

Any dispute or difference that arises out of or in connection with the Contract shall be determined by the Independent Betting Adjudication Service (IBAS) whose ruling shall be binding. If, notwithstanding the above, the customer issues Court proceedings, Coral reserve the right to apply to stay those proceedings pending determination by the IBAS. If the customer fails or refuses to follow the ruling of the IBAS, the customer will reimburse all resulting expenses (including court fees) incurred by Coral.

Each-Way Betting

An Each Way bet is made up of 2 parts: the ‘Win' and the ‘Place'.

Each part is an equal stake, e.g. a £1 Each Way bet will have £1 on the ‘Win' and £1 on the ‘Place' (a total stake of £2).

The ‘Win' part of your bet is on your selection to win the event, and the ‘Place' part is on your selection to finish either first or in one of the pre-determined places.

If your selection wins, both the ‘Win' and ‘Place' parts of your bet will pay out. But if your selection only places, you will lose the ‘Win' part of your bet (and lose that part of the stake) but get paid out on the ‘Place'.

The odds for the ‘Place' are given as a fraction of the odds for the ‘Win' and will be displayed to you when you place your bet.

Each-Way betting is most common in horse and greyhound racing, and is also usually available in other sports e.g. Football or Golf tournaments.

For Horse and Greyhound Racing, unless otherwise stated the ‘Place' part of Each Way bets will be given the following Place terms:

Non-Handicap Races

• 2 - 4 Runners Win Only
• 5 - 7 Runners 1/4 the Odds 1, 2
• 8 or more Runners 1/5 the Odds 1, 2, 3

Handicap Races

• 2 - 4 Runners Win Only
• 5 - 7 Runners 1/4 the Odds 1, 2
• 8 - 11 Runners 1/5 the Odds 1, 2, 3
• 12 - 15 Runners 1/4 the Odds 1, 2, 3
• 16 or more Runners 1/4 the Odds 1, 2, 3, 4

In other cases, including Horse Racing Ante Post, selected ‘feature’ Horse and Greyhound races, Football and Sports betting events, the Each Way ‘Place’ terms will be as advertised at the time the bet was placed.

Things to Consider

Please Note: Non-runners in a race can affect the Each-Way terms of your bet.

For example, if your bet is placed in an 8 runner race, and a horse later withdraws reducing the field to 7, the each-way terms will change from 1/5 odds first 3 places to 1/4 odds on the first 2 places only. Similarly, if a race is reduced from 5 runners to 4, the place terms will change from 1/4 odds for the first 2 places, to 'Win only'.

Enhanced Prices for Multiple Bets

Unless otherwise stated (onsite and/or within specific marketing) where special multiples are available (ie: Doubles, Trebles and upwards) the following rules will apply:

• Win bets only are accepted. Any Each Way bets taken in error will be settled to win.
• If any of the featured horses and greyhounds are non-runners all bets will be settled on the remaining selections at Starting Price (SP) unless it was an Ante Post bet on an all-in run or not basis then the bet will be a loser.
• For greyhounds If any non-runners or reserves are involved in the selected races, all bets placed prior to non runner will be settled at SP.

Football and All Other Sports

• Unless otherwise stated (onsite and/or within specific marketing), in the instance where one selection of an enhanced/price boosted multiple does not take place/participate or start (e.g. match abandoned) the bet will be voided and stakes returned to your account.

Errors

Coral make every effort to ensure that we do not make errors in accepting bets. However, if as a result of human error or system problems a bet is accepted at a price (which includes the odds, handicap provisions, and other terms and conditions or details of the bet) that is:

1. materially different from those available in the general market at the time the bet was made; or
2. clearly incorrect given the chance of the event occurring at the time the bet was made

After this, Coral will pay winnings at the correct price.

Where an incorrect handicap is displayed as a result of a technical or manual inputting error, we reserve the right to settle any affected bets at corrected odds to reflect those odds that would have been available had the incorrect handicap line been offered knowingly.

To establish the correct price Coral will consider prices available in the general market at the time the bet was made, including the prices offered by William Hill, Betfred, Bet Victor, Paddy Power and Bet365.

Examples of circumstances where this would apply are:

1. the price is recorded as 100-1 when the price on offer in the general market is 10-1
2. the margins for handicap betting have been reversed

If a bet is accepted in error by Coral on an event or outcome for which no Coral prices are available the bet will be void and your stake returned.

Any results, clocks or scores displayed on the site - for example during betting in play - are for guidance purposes only, and although we make every effort to ensure that this information is accurate, Coral accepts no liability should the displayed information be listed incorrectly.

Fraud

Coral will seek criminal and contractual sanctions against any customer involved in fraud, dishonesty or criminal acts. Coral will withhold payment to any customer where any of these are suspected.

The customer shall indemnify and shall be liable to pay to Coral, on demand, all costs, charges or losses sustained or incurred by Coral (including any direct, indirect or consequential losses, loss of profit and loss of reputation) arising directly or indirectly from the customer’s fraud, dishonesty or criminal act.

Maximum Payouts

The maximum daily payouts on any bet, or bets, including Ante Post, are as detailed below. The maximum payout limits apply to individual events. The limits below refer to the total return on the bet, excluding the original stake. If a multiple bet has been placed which involves events with different maximum payout limits, the lowest limit will apply.

All maximum payout limits apply to any one customer, or group of customers acting together, who have backed the same combination of selections, including where placed in a series of bets, at a range of prices, over a number of days using different betting accounts and/or across different betting channels. Should we have reason to believe that a number of bets have been placed this way, the total payment of all those bets combined will be limited to one single maximum payout.

Coral shall not be liable for any loss of profits, loss of anticipated savings, loss of goods, or any special, indirect, consequential or pure economic loss, costs, damages, charges or expenses.

Throughout these rules, ‘Full Service’ refers to horse and greyhound races for which full details (shows of betting, official off times and results) are broadcast to Coral and viewable in our shops by satellite and terrestrial media..

Horse Racing

Greyhound Racing

Bets on graded races at meetings not listed above will be void.

Football

Sports Betting

Non Sports Betting

Postponed Matches

For any cancelled or postponed match, any bets struck prior to the scheduled kick-off will be void. All bets stand on any match that is delayed prior to the scheduled kick-off time and takes place on the same day (local time). The only exceptions are matches that take place within a fixed date tournament framework eg Olympic Games, Tennis Tournaments, European Championships Finals, World Cup Finals etc then bets will stand (does not apply to non-tennis qualifying matches taking place outside of the fixed date tournament framework). See Individual Sport rules for superseding rules relevant to those sports.

Price Changes

All prices are subject to change and may, on occasion, be restricted to certain stake levels. The prices offered via our different business channels may vary. For example, our shops or on-course betting facilities, may offer slightly different prices from those available at our Call Centre or on our Website/Mobile Sites.

Online/Mobile

We will always endeavour to ensure that the process of placing your bet is as quick and simple as possible.

In some instances, where prices may be changing rapidly - e.g. in-play sports betting - the price of your selection may change between the moment you place your bet and the time at which your receive confirmation that the bet has been placed, the following scenarios apply:

If the price of your selection decreases - e.g. from 6/4 into 5/4 - your bet will not be placed and you will be presented with the option to place your bet at the new price.

If the price of your selection increases - e.g. from 2/1 to 5/2 - your bet will not be placed and you will be presented with the option to place your bet at the new price.

Results

All bets placed on UK and Irish horse racing will be settled on First Past the Post AND the official result.

• First Past the Post: The immediate result after the race has been completed (see Exceptions below)
• Official Result: Announced at the 'weigh-in' on the day, after any Steward's Enquiries and/or objections have been considered. If a winner is disqualified after the official result is announced, the disqualification will not affect the settlement of bets.

Exceptions

The exceptions where First Past the Post does not apply and bets are only settled according to the official result are:

• A selection taking the wrong course
• A selection carrying the wrong weight or the jockey failing to weigh-in
• Any Ante Post bet
• A Forecast or Tricast bet
• A void race
• Any Tote/Pari-Mutuel bet
• A selection given as the winner in error by the judge
• A bet placed on a two-runner race or a special match bet
• A bet placed in a “without the favourite” or any other special market
• Aintree Grand National
• Any bet placed at the rails on a racecourse
• We pay FPP on UK & Irish racing ONLY - Horse racing bets placed on non-UK/Irish meetings are settled on the official result declared by the racecourse judge and confirmed by the ‘Weighed-In’ announcement. If a winner is disqualified after the official result is announced, the disqualification will not affect the settlement of bets.

Things to Consider

• This offer applies to winning single and multiple bets and the win part of Each-Way bets. There is no restriction on staking, and payouts are subject to our advertised Maximum Payout Limits.
• In the event of a double result, payout on the horse that was first past the post may be subject to a small delay while we process your winnings. The funds will be credited to your account as a manual adjustment.

In the case of Greyhound racing, bets are settled on the official result announced at the conclusion of the event. If a winner is disqualified after the official result is announced, the disqualification will not affect the settlement of bets.

In the case of Football and other Sports, bets are settled on the first result published by the official source/governing body or alternatively the official website of the relevant event, immediately after the match/event is finished. Any subsequent corrections or amendments to this result will not apply for settlement purposes.

If the result is not immediately available from the official source/governing body or the official website of the relevant event, or there is significant evidence that the official source/governing body or official website is incorrect, we will use independent sources such as Press Association to decide settlement.

In the absence of any consistent, independent evidence or in the presence of significant conflicting evidence, bets will be settled based on our own statistics.

Special Bets

We will sometimes offer special betting opportunities, for which the rules are not covered specifically in these Rules. In these instances, we will display the additional terms/rules in the text description that relates to the opportunity on the website, and bets will be settled accordingly.

Fixed Price Enhanced Multiple Bets

• An enhanced multiple bet is a win single only selection at a fixed price.
• In the event of a Dead Heat, selections will be settled as an SP (starting price)/ Standard Price accumulative bet with Dead Heat rules applied.
• All bets are struck at selection level e.g. Enhanced Jockey Multiples: in the instance a different jockey is declared to ride, the bet will stand on the horses selected not the Jockey.
• Horse Racing enhanced multiple bets - If a different jockey is declared to ride, the bet will stand on the horses selected.
• Where an enhanced multiple has selections affected by the withdrawal of another selection/s in a Racing market, selections may be settled as an SP (starting price) accumulative bet and a rule 4 deduction may be applied. (standard rule 4 deductions apply)
• Football enhanced multiple bets apply to 90 minutes only i.e. never include extra time.
• US Sports enhanced multiple bets Overtime and extra innings count.
• Standard trading rules will be applied to all variants/markets within the enhanced multiple.

Voids

If a selection in a single bet is made void the stake will be returned.

Void selections in multiple/accumulator bets will be treated as non-runners and the stake will run onto the remaining selections in the bet.

Withholding payment and our right to set off liability

We reserve the right to withhold payment and to declare bets on an event void if we have evidence that the following has occurred:

1. the integrity of the event has been called into question
2. the price(s) or pool has been manipulated
3. match rigging has taken place

Evidence of the above may be based on the size, volume or pattern of bets placed with us across any or all of our betting channels. A decision given by the relevant governing body of the sport in question (if any) will be conclusive. If any customer owes any money to Coral for any reason, we have the right to take that into account before making any payments to that customer.

Game Props:

In the event that a game ends as a tie in NFL, bets on Margin of Victory and Double Result will be settled as a loss. Note that this is an extremely rare occurrence.

Most football props are straightforward. Examples of regularly featured basic props are listed below:

• Total points scored by the home team
• Total points scored by the visiting team
• First team to score
• Last team to score
• Will the last team to score win the game?
• Will there be a score in the last two minutes of the first half?
• Will there be a score in the first six and a half minutes of the game?
• Which team will have the longest touchdown?
• Will there be a successful two-point conversion?
• Will there be a safety?
• Which half will have the highest point score?
• Which quarter will have the highest point score?

However, some prop bets are a little more complex:

'What will the first scoring play of the game be?' In this prop bet you will see the following list of possibilities:

• Field Goal
• Safety
• Touchdown Pass
• Touchdown Run
• Any Other Touchdown

If you choose the 'Any Other Touchdown' option then you are picking a touchdown not already mentioned in the list of options. Passing/Running Touchdowns, Safeties or Fieldgoals would not count as they are on the list.

'Will there be a defensive or special teams touchdown?' In this prop 'defensive touchdown' refers to interceptions, fumble returns or offensive drives. A 'special teams touchdown' refers to punt returns and kick returns.

'Will either team score 3 straight times without other team scoring?' In this prop you are betting on either team scoring 3 consecutive times during the game. Only touchdowns, field goals or safeties are included. Any PATs (point after touchdown or 2 point conversions) are not included.

'Distance of the FIRST punt of the game' (must be an official punt)(no punt-no-action)
'Total punts by BOTH teams' (must be an official punt) In these props, official punt is defined as follows:

• Official Punt: The punting team punts (for example, 40 yards) and no penalties occur.
• Un-official Punt: The punting team punts (for example, 40 yards) and the punting or receiving team incurs a penalty (which is accepted) during that play.

'Distance of 1st Gross Punt' In props stating 'Gross Punt', this is defined as follows:

• 'Gross Yards' is the total official yardage of the punt.
• 'Net Yards' would take return yardage into consideration.

'Net punting average' In props relating to the Net punting average, this is calculated as follows:

• Net punting average = Gross punting yards, minus return yards, minus 20 yards for every touchback, divided by total punts).

NBA Playoffs, Exact Games, Series Prop

All NBA Playoff series consist of 7 games. For the Exact Games prop bet, the lines would look something like this:

If you choose, for example, 5 Games Heat Win +300, you are betting on how many games it will take the Heat to win the series (and NOT how many games in a row they will win).

The price, +300 (3-1 in fractional odds or 4.00 in decimal odds) tells you how much you can win.

The numbers in brackets in the bet's header indicates the number of games to be played in each home team court. For example: Mavs vs Heat – exact Games – 7 games Series (2-3-2) indicates 2 games in the Mavs home court, 3 games in the Heat home court and 2 in the Mavs home court for a total of 7 games.

The 'All Bets Action' clause in the header of this particular Exact Games prop bet means that:

• If any game in the series is shortened for any reason but one team is still deemed the winner, all bets will remain action or,
• If a game starts but gets suspended (for whatever reason) with no winner declared and must be replayed later, then all bets remain action.

These would be extremely rare scenarios.

Major League Baseball Rules

Major League Baseball games are considered official after 5 innings of play, or 4 1/2 innings if the home team is leading. If a game is subsequently called or suspended, the winner is determined by the score after the last full inning unless the home team ties the score or takes the lead in the bottom half of the inning in which the game was suspended. In that case the winner will be determined by the score at the time the game is called. (This rule holds for betting purposes even if the game is suspended and /or completed on a different day than it began).

7 Inning Games

In the case of games scheduled as 7 innings (as introduced in the shortened 2021 MLB season) the game must complete 7 innings, or 6 1/2 innings if the home team is leading, otherwise wagers on Totals, Run Lines or Propositions and Live betting will constitute a 'no-action' wager”.

Pitching Options

When you place a money line wager on game lines where starting pitchers are listed, you can choose whether or not you would like your bet to have action in the event of a pitching change. The options are:

• Listed: both listed pitchers must start.
• Selected: the pitcher for the team on which you are betting must start.
• Opposing: the pitcher for the opposing team must start.
• Action: your bet will have action regardless of pitcher changes.

Note: If there is a pitching change and you have selected to keep action on the wager, the odds of your bet will be adjusted to the odds as they stand when the game begins.

All other baseball wagers where starting pitchers are listed will be accepted as ‘Listed.’ In the event of a pitching change prior to the game, all wagers on the game with said listed pitchers are considered ‘no-action’. All wagers will be refunded to members’ accounts as soon as official confirmation is received allowing you to make the bet again with the new pitcher and the new price if you so wish.

Note: Each team’s starting pitcher is defined for betting purposes as the pitcher that throws the first pitch.

No Listed Pitchers

All wagers placed on Money Lines, Totals or Run Lines where starting pitchers are not listed will be considered action at the confirmed price.

All baseball props must go the full 9 innings (8½ if the home team is winning) unless otherwise stated. They also must start with the listed pitchers. If a game is suspended and/or completed on a different day than it began, props will be graded ‘no-action’ unless otherwise stated.

In baseball, all games that go at least the full 9 innings and finish tied as a result of a suspension of play, shall be graded as a push on all money line bets. However, all run line and total bets will have action. Note that this is an extremely rare occurrence. In the event of a change in Las Vegas rules, we will adhere to the decision set forth in Las Vegas.

MLB Series Price: Any and all baseball series wagers must have all 3 games played by the end of a specified date for the wager to have action. If all 3 games are not played by that specified date then all wagers have ‘no-action’, regardless if one team has 2 wins. All 3 games must be official by Las Vegas Gaming Standards (see our rules regarding baseball wagers and what constitutes an official result).

Note: If we provide a baseball series price for a series that has 4 games, for grading purposes, the wager is based on the initial 3 games.

‘First Five Innings Bets':

Money lines and run lines are official after 5 full innings of play, or 4½ if the home team has the lead and the game is called before completion of the inning.

-4½ innings with home team winning and total is over: over is winner

-4½ innings with home team winning and total is under: no action

‘Team to Score First’ props are accepted as ‘listed pitchers’ and will be graded as soon as the first team has scored and the home team has had a turn at bat. If the home team scores first, that bet will be graded at that time and bets are action regardless of game suspension or postponement. If the visiting team scores first, the bet will be graded once the home team has completed its turn at bat.

Parlay or Multiple Betting

No parlay wagers can be accepted where individual wagers are ‘connected’, ‘dependent’ or ‘correlated’.

Using a baseball game as an example, let's say you want to take the Boston Red Sox to win on the money-line and the Boston Red Sox on the run-line. If the Boston Red Sox win the game, it is also likely that they will win by at least two runs therefore the selections are said to be ‘correlated’ and cannot be parlayed together. For the same reason, we do not allow the favorite/underdog on the runline and the over/under of the same game to be placed in the same parlay.

In the same way, you cannot parlay the line for the first half of a football game with the line for the whole game or the total for the first half of a football game with the total for the whole game, as the two are ‘dependent’. Less obviously, but nonetheless correlated, are the favorite/underdog on the spread and the over/under of the same game placed together in a parlay or teaser bet when the spread is greater than or equal to 30% of the total.

Dead Heat Rule

In the event of a dead heat (a tie), stakes will be divided by the number of selections that have tied, with the divided stake settled at full odds. Remaining stakes are lost. If the tie was a betting option, then the dead heat rule does not apply. The dead heat rule only applies to 'future' wagers. For example, if there is a 3 way tie for the top scorer in a basketball game, then your winnings are calculated by taking your stake, dividing it by 3, and multiplying that amount by the odds on your betting ticket.

Buying Points

Buying points allows you to change the point-spread or total of a football or basketball game.

You can move the point-spread so you get more points when betting the underdog or you give away fewer points when betting the favorite. When buying the first ½ point or full point we charge 10 cents per ½ point. But after the first point, we charge 20 cents per ½ point.

You can only buy a maximum of 3 points in Football and Basketball, both College and Professional.
There is a special rule when buying points on the spread in football:
