Sportsbook
Sports betting
Next to the casino, EpicStar runs a sportsbook on the Altenar platform with more than 30 disciplines and over 1,000 events in the line. The interesting part is not the size of the line but its rules: how each bet type is settled, when cash-out is offered and what happens when a match is interrupted.

Bet types and how they are settled
- Single — one outcome, one stake.
- Accumulator — several outcomes from different events; the odds multiply, and every leg must win.
- System — a set of accumulators built from your selections, so one losing leg does not lose everything.
- Bet Builder — several outcomes from one match on one slip. If any of them is settled as void, the whole slip is refunded.
- Teaser — adjusted lines on several selections; a single loss loses the whole bet.
The rules also describe esports titles such as CS, Dota 2, League of Legends, Call of Duty, Overwatch, FIFA and NBA 2K alongside traditional sports.
Cash-out and Asian lines
Cash-out, including partial cash-out, lets you settle a bet before the event ends. It is not guaranteed on every bet; when it is unavailable, the bet simply stays as it was. Quarter handicaps and totals on Asian lines settle half the stake on one line and half on the neighbouring one, so a result can be a half win or a half loss with the other half refunded.
Promotions in the line
The rules describe three promotions, each applying only to markets marked in the line.
- Early payout on pre-match win bets (without the draw): the bet is paid once your team leads by 2 goals in football, 3 in hockey, 2 sets in tennis, 5 runs in baseball, 17 points in American football, or 18 or 20 points in basketball. It does not apply after a cash-out.
- 0% margin on marked pre-match markets: football 1X2 and match winner in basketball, American football, tennis, baseball and hockey. It cannot be combined with early payout.
- 0:0 refund on marked pre-match markets: if the match ends goalless, the stake is returned; cashing out cancels the promotion.
Settlement rules worth knowing
- Football is settled on regular time unless the market name says otherwise.
- A match stopped at 79:00 or later is settled on the result; stopped earlier, undecided markets are refunded.
- Bets placed between an incident and a VAR decision are void if the decision changes the course of the match.
- Resettlement is possible for up to 30 days after settlement.
- Outrights follow play-or-pay: a selection that does not take part loses; head-to-head bets are refunded.
- In a dead heat the odds are divided by the number of tied participants.
The operator may decline a bet in full or in part without explanation, returning the stake, and may void bets after the start for obvious errors in the line, duplicate or multi-account play, related outcomes or insider knowledge.
What the rules do not say
The published rules leave some things open: the maximum payout per slip, stake limits, live coverage of each discipline and whether sports bets count towards the casino bonus. We do not fill these gaps with guesses; check them in the betslip and the current rules.
