Virtual Sports - Frequently Asked Questions

What is Virtual Sports?

Virtual Sports are graphical representations of live sporting events. Just like real-life sporting events, they allow you to place bets before the event and then watch the action unfold. The main difference is that Virtual Sports outcomes are determined by random number generation with no skill required. Every event is a standalone - each event is unaffected by previous events.

Do I need to be an experienced sports bettor before I play?

Virtual Sports are simple and accessible to both novice and experienced sports bettors. Because the outcomes are random, you don't need to be a sports expert to play.

How do I play Virtual Sports?

Clicking on any of the Virtual Sports game tiles will launch a Virtual Sports game in a new pop-up window. Place a bet on the outcome of your choice. Then watch the Virtual Sports game play out and your bet will be settled based on the game outcome.

Do Virtual Sports follow the same seasonality as real life sporting events?

Is it real sports?

No. Virtual Sports are graphical representations of real sports, with results determined by random number generation.

How are the results determined?

After the Virtual Sports software calculates the probability of all potential outcomes and sets the betting price accordingly, the random number generator selects a result.
