    Backed Ulster to beat the handicap against stade on friday, game was called off on the saturday morn and played on the sunday at a different venue and of course ulster never covered the handicap, does this count as voided as called off and played on a different day and a different venue?

    some bookies have a rule that the match is voided if its not refixed within 48 hrs or something like that, maybe thats only for soccer but im not completely sure!

    Let us know how you get on. Read the office rules in the shop though.

    It's actually an interesting one because the venue changing should have had a significant impact on the match considering brussles would have been more like a neutral venue for stade except with a few pink jersies thrown into the mix. Did the handicap lengthen on the day I wonder??

    Once the match is replayed within 24 hours of the original time then your bet will stand.

    In the case of a venue change, the only time it is void is if it is switched to the opponents ground. For international matches, bets will stand once the new venue is in the same country as originally scheduled.

    The bookies you used might have different rules though...

    Only if it's played at the same venue.

    You certainly have a case for Void as the venue was changed.
    Mind you you would also have a case if it was a winner :confused:
    Ring a couple of the big guys and ask them what they did in this case.

    Would def be voided I'd say - the odds on Stade must have shortened after moving back to Paris

    this game was played in a different country so should be void.
    wonder what your opinion would have been if it was a winner ;)
