RULES OF PLAY
As with any betting site, we abide by strict rules when calculating results and accept the results given to us by the recognised governing bodies for that sport.
We also have sport specific rules for different Game types and sports to help govern the running of our app.
Game Types
Predictions
- You will need to select the Prediction Game you want to enter / create
- You will then make your Predictions on the events included in the Game. Predictions could be made on a number of variables as defined by the Game owner. There include, but are not limited to:
- Predicting the result of a match (i.e Team A to win)
- Predicting the margin of victory in a match (i.e. Team A to win by 2 goals)
- Predicting the score in a match (i.e. Team A 3 - 1 Team B)
- Predicting a tournament / event winner (i.e. - Team A to win tournament)
- Game specific rules and scoring systems will be outlined for each individual Game. The key scoring mechanisms are outlined below
- You will need to pay your joining fee for the Prediction Game before your Predictions are entered into the Game
- The Game pot size is the total of the joining fees minus Hunch’s commission. The Game owner has flexibility to split the pot winnings across up to 3 top placed players.
- The winner will be the person with the highest amount of points as laid out per the scoring system for that Game
- If players have the same score total, then they draw level. If this happens and they are in a position where they win some money, then they share the prize money with the other player(s) who have scored the same as them.

General Rules across all Hunch Games
Results will appear as stated by the relevant sports governing bodies.
If there is an appeal by any team / player after the final whistle, this will have no bearing on Hunch even if the result is changed.
If there is a dispute about any result, Hunch reserves the right to have the final say on the outcome.
Cancellations of Sporting Events
If the sports event does not take place for any reason and this is the sole event in the Hunch Game, the Hunch will be declared void and return all players entry stakes in full to the account from which they paid.
If there are multiple events in a Game and 50% or more of the events are cancelled Hunch will declare the Game void and return all players' entry stakes in full to the account from which they paid.
