What is virtual sports betting?
Virtual sports betting is just like the real thing. Take our virtual football for example. You’ll find the world’s top international teams doing battle with each other every few minutes, as well as fictional club sides like Islington Reds and Liverpool Stars. You’ll see odds for each team to win as well as a draw. You can also bet on the Correct Score, Over/Under, Both Teams to Score and plenty more. You can watch the action unfold on your desktop, laptop, tablet or smartphone.
If you choose virtual greyhounds, you can bet on your chosen horse to win or make each way bet and watch as those dogs leave the traps and chase the hare around the track. With virtual horse racing you can place a bet on a horse to win or place across virtual sprint race betting, National Hunt, Flat Racing and Horses Chase.
The virtual environments are often modelled on real-life stadiums to create a real immersive feel. Plus, all the action is streamed in HD with advanced graphics and realistic sound effects. You can hear the crowd chanting and listen to the commentator describing the action.
To bet on virtual sports, simply choose your bet, select your stake and watch the event unfold. Just as you would for any real-world sport.
How does virtual sports betting differ from real sports?
One of the biggest advantages of virtual sports is that they’re available 24/7. You don’t need to wait for a Premier League match or deal with the NBA off-season. Virtual events start every few minutes. Plus, factors like bad weather or injuries are never an issue in virtual sprots, and matches are never abandoned.
Unlike real-world sports, virtual matches and races are controlled by a Random Number Generator (RNG). Yes, the odds reflect the likely winner, but the RNG ensures that just like in real life, outsiders still have a chance to win. Each match is computer simulated and controlled by an algorithm using the RNG. This ensures that every outcome is completely fair. The system is even audited by independent bodies like UK Gambling Commission and the Alderney Gambling Control Commission to keep it fair every time. And there’s no need to travel to a stadium or racecourse. You’ll have everything at your fingertips, with the action streamed in HD whether you’re using your mobile, tablet or desktop device.
How do odds work on virtual sports?
With virtual sports betting, the odds work in just the same way as they do with real world betting.
Take virtual horse racing for example. You’ll see the odds on each of the horses to win. Say the favourite has odds of 5/1, you can choose to back it with a stake of your choice. If you place a £10 bet on the 5/1 favourite and it finishes first past the post, you’ll claim winnings of £50. You’ll also get your original bet back too.
As well as simple bets on virtual horse racing and football, you’ll see odds across all our virtual sports with a wide range of markets available.
1. Virtual football includes markets like double chance and handicap betting
2. For virtual basketball, you can bet on winning margin, highest scoring quarter and over/under total points
3. With virtual tennis, you can select markets like total points and correct score
