Description
Betting on virtual races are presented in a similar way to real races however rather than being based on a real event, the outcomes are determined by a random number generator (RNG) with weighting applied proportional to the listed odds.
Random Number Generator (RNG)
The RNG has been independently tested by an accredited testing supplier details are available upon request.
Frequency
Races are run “On Demand” which means that once a bet is being placed the race will start specifically for you. Each race is a new race and will run only for you.

Win Bet
To determine the RTP of a Single Win Bet, divide 100 by each of the potential odds. Add these figures together and divide 100 by the sum and multiply by 100 to obtain a percentage. This gives the overall RTP shown bottom right of the following table.
For example, if the race has four outcomes with the below decimal odds, here is an example of how the RTP can be calculated:
RACER 1 1.25 100/1.25 80.00
RACER 2 8.5 100/8.5 11.76
RACER 3 11 100/11 9.09
RACER 4 23 100/23 4.35
Total 105.20
(100/105.2) *100 95.05%
Place Bet
To determine the RTP of a Single Place Bet, divide 100 by each of the potential odds. Add these figures together and divide by the number of prize-winning places, take this and divide 100 by the result and multiply by 100 to obtain a percentage. This gives the overall RTP shown bottom right of the following table.
For example, if the race has 8 runners(thus 3 place winning positions) with the below decimal odds, here is an example of how the RTP can be calculated:
RACER1 1.74 100/1.74 57.47
RACER 2 1.99 100/1.99 50.25
RACER 3 2.05 100/2.05 48.78
RACER 4 2.1 100/2.10 47.62
RACER 5 2.2 100/2.20 45.45
RACER 6 2.45 100/2.45 40.82
RACER 7 3.12 100/3.12 32.05
RACER 8 6.6 100/6.6 15.15
Total 337.60
337.60/3 112.53
(100/112.53)*100 88.86%
Minimum Bet And Maximum Win
Betting in Virtual Racing has some limits, we have various minimum and maximum bet limits that may be encountered. There are dynamic and will vary depending on type of bet but will kick in to prevent you placing bets for which we would not return the correct payout. We do this to ensure you will always receive the amount listed as a payout if your bet wins, if a limit would prevent this payout you will be asked to amend you bet amount before it will accept the submission.
Broadcasts
Races are broadcast as live video streams through an integrated media player, you can switch between any of the sports using the menu across the top of the screen.
Odds
You can set your odds to be any of Fractional / Decimal / American these all have their own nuances and it is a personal preference for what you are used too. None of these options affect your returns in any way it is just different systems for calculating or comparing the return. The default is Decimal, where the stake is multiplied by the decimal to calculate the return.
Users should be aware that, by their nature, fractional and American odds are rounded to the nearest number as appropriate. Therefore, in cases where the game or the user is playing with Fractional or American odds, the game will calculate based on the Decimal equivalent. The decimal values should be considered to be the true and correct values to two decimal places.
Basic Navigation
