Bets, once submitted, will be governed by the version of the Terms and Conditions valid at the time of the bet being accepted.

A bet is deemed to have been placed as soon as confirmation of the acceptance of the betting offer is received from 'Casinò di Vittoriosa'.

The Account Holder affirms that at the time he placed a bet, or bets, he had no knowledge as to the outcome of the respective event/s. Bets on events in which the Account Holder is directly involved, or has access to insider information about, are forbidden. Where there is suspicion of a violation of this rule, 'Casinò di Vittoriosa' retains the right to void the bet and refuse to pay out the eventual winnings. It also retains the right to take any further action it deems necessary to protect its legitimate interests and to comply with existing laws and regulations.

'Casinò di Vittoriosa' retains the right to decline or to accept bets without providing any reasons.

'Casinò di Vittoriosa' retains the right to limit the amounts staked by its Account Holders on certain markets and from certain locations.

'Casinò di Vittoriosa' retains the right to declare all bets on an event or events invalid if they emanate from a group of Account Holders who appear to have had knowledge of the outcome of such event/s and acted together to take advantage of such knowledge - e.g. syndicated betting.

When a bet is declared invalid or void, the odds will be set to 1.00. The Account Holders will be reimbursed of the amount staked. In the case of combination bets, the invalid result will not be included in the calculation of the (total) odds.

Apart from live betting, any bet concluded after the start of the event becomes invalid and the odds will be set to 1.00.

Should 'Casinò di Vittoriosa' decide to close an Account Holder's account, bets which have already been placed and accepted will not be voided and the Account Holder will be paid any resulting winnings. This applies only to accounts on which a bonus has never been claimed. For accounts which have received a bonus, please refer to Account Rules and to the Bonus Terms and Conditions. A bet which has been placed and accepted cannot be amended, withdrawn or canceled. A mistake regarding the details of a bet or bets will not influence the validity of the bet. If the event on which the bet has been placed is incorrect then this will automatically void the bet.

'Casinò di Vittoriosa' endeavors to make no mistakes during the odds publication; if any mistake is inadvertently made 'Casinò di Vittoriosa' reserve the right to modify the odds accordingly, even after the event has finished. An 'error' is a material mistake about odd inserting or exchanging;  arbitration  will be based on other web companies’ opinions and odds.

'Casinò di Vittoriosa' reserves the right to cancel and void repeat bets which contain the same selection. That means Account Holders who place identical bets more than once risk having these bets revoked.

'Casinò di Vittoriosa' reserves the right to refuse the whole or part of any bet and to make ambiguous bets void.

When the Account Holder places a bet/s he acknowledges that he has read and understood in full all of the terms and conditions and game rules regarding the bets offered by 'Casinò di Vittoriosa' as stated on the website.

'Casinò di Vittoriosa' manages the Account Holder's account, calculates the available funds, the pending funds, the betting funds as well as the amount of the winnings. Unless proven otherwise, these amounts are considered as final and are not subject to any dispute.

The Account Holder is fully responsible for the betting orders placed over the Internet. 'Casinò di Vittoriosa' will never question the Account Holder about the relevance of the bets they wish to place and will not be held responsible for the possible mistakes that could have been made during the placing of such bets, including mistakes regarding the amounts staked.

'Results' are the ones achieved on the ground, track, field or podium. Possible theoretical results, gained by disciplinary, sport justice or ordinary actions, will not be taken into consideration. In case of 'illicit sport', 'Casinò di Vittoriosa' reserves the right to freeze the winnings or to not pay them.
All the dates and hours of the matches published on the web site are approximate; in order to correct any bets these dates and hours are taken from the competent organizations and authorities.

Winnings on bets with Fixed Odds are calculated by the multiplication of the amount placed by the per-determined odds.

Bets erroneously accepted after the event has started will be considered void; if the event belongs to a multi-account holder then the selection will be considered void.

Winnings will be paid into the Account Holder's account after the final result is confirmed. Any later amendment to the result, e.g. disciplinary procedures (doping) or intervention by ruling bodies have no influence on the result. However, 'Casinò di Vittoriosa' reserves the right to set aside any winnings should there be investigations into an event as a result of a suspicion of criminal activities that may have affected the result of the event. If the irregularity is confirmed then 'Casinò di Vittoriosa' retains the right to void any related bets.

A bet is declared void if an event is canceled or abandoned and no final result is declared within 24 hours. The following limits apply on winnings per Account Holder:

• The maximum winning is 25,000 Euro
• The maximum winning allowed for a combo bet is 1000 times the amount wagered with a maximum payment of 50,000

'Casinò di Vittoriosa' retains the right to reduce the amount wagered by an Account Holder if the above limits will be surpassed should the Account Holder prove successful with his bet. The difference between the original amount wagered by the Account Holders and the amount revised by 'Casinò di Vittoriosa' will be paid back into his account.

Should 'Casinò di Vittoriosa' become aware that an Account Holder has placed a number of bets from different accounts he has irregularly opened, then the above limits will be applied across all accounts. 'Casinò di Vittoriosa' retains the right to take further action as deemed necessary.

Account Holders may apply for higher limits and written agreements can be reached to increase these limits. If bets, which exceed the stated limits, are erroneously accepted, the excess amount will be disregarded and the bet amount placed will be revised accordingly and the difference paid back to the Account Holders.

'Casinò di Vittoriosa' retains the right to reduce the limits on any event at any time.

Account Holders may also set their own limits on the amounts they permit themselves to bet on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. The limits can be set directly from the 'my account' section. The Account Holder can request the removal of his/her limits by sending an email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.   This e-mail address is protected from Spam-bots. You will need JavaScript enabled to view it . The limits will be removed (or reduced) 7 days after the Account Holder submits the request. Requests to further restrict these limits will take place immediately.

Casino and Poker Rules

Bets are only valid if they have an ID (Identification Code). In case of any dispute, the files and records of 'Casinò di Vittoriosa' will be considered the only acceptable and valid proof.

It will not be the responsibility of  'Casinò di Vittoriosa' if the Internet, browser or computer of the Account-Holder do not work correctly.

'Casinò di Vittoriosa' advises Account Holders to use the portal only whilst using fast and reliable Internet connections (Adsl or Optical Fiber).

In the case of Virtual Games you acknowledge that our random number generator will determine the outcome of the games played on the Poker Room and Casino tables and you accept the outcomes of all such games. You further agree that in the unlikely event of a disagreement between the result that appears on the Software and the game server, the result that appears on the game server will prevail and you acknowledge and agree that our records will be the final authority in determining the terms and circumstances of your participation in the Poker Room or Casino games and related gaming activity.

Once you place a bet you have to validate it by clicking on the “Send” button. After this operation you will be not able to modify or cancel it anymore.

In the Live version the results of the games are read by optical readers; if they should happen to malfunction, the game in progress will be voided and this decision may not be challenged.

In the case of Live Roulette, should there be a mis-spin, then all bets will be confirmed and the spin will be repeated.

If a system error occurs while placing a bet, the bet will be considered valid or invalid according to the error which has occurred. If it is an error originating on the Account Holders side,  we will probably receive the bet confirmation and if such is the case, then your bet will be considered valid. Players can check their own bet history in the 'Bet List' section when they successively log-in to the portal . If the connection is terminated by 'Casinò di Vittoriosa' system malfunction and/or hardware failures, thus without validating bet requests, then the bet will be considered void.

Should there be any lack of conformity between the Live Results, the results displayed in the live streaming window , and the results displayed by the software, then the  true result will be determined as the one displayed by the Live Streaming.

House rules (Poker)

 

Disputes

Should any dispute arise, the decision of the Casinò Vittoriosa Poker Management Team will be final.

The Management reserves the right to close any table at any time at their sole discretion and without having to give prior notice.

The Management also reserves the right to disable or suspend a player or a group of players for a time period to be determined by management for any violation of house rules.

Even though it is extremely unlikely, a server crash may occur with any Internet application. In such an event, customers will have their accounts automatically refunded with the amount of chips they had at the table, both in play and out of play.

In the unlikely event that a pot was awarded wrongly, the Management has the right to adjust players’ account balances to correct any and all inconsistencies and will contact the players involved and provide them with a hand history and a detailed explanation within 48 hours.

Voided Hands (Live Poker)

The Management will void a hand in-play and return all stakes to participants in the following cases:

1. an error occurs with the fiber-optic reader or any other unspecified technical error;
2. two cards are drawn by mistake or any other unspecified type of misdeal.

With regards to human error, the only case in which the hand will not be voided is the following: the croupier mistakenly mixes previously folded cards with the remaining deck cards before the River. Should this situation arise, the croupier will proceed as follows:

1. remix the deck cards and place them anew in the shoe (sabot);
2. re-draw the cards from the shoe until the River or until the game is over;
3. should the extracted card be one of the previously folded cards, the system will notify the card is to be discarded and the following card will be extracted from the shoe.

Should it not be possible to correct an issue in real-time, because the system has already acquired misread card data for example, then the hand will be declared void: within 48 hours, and after examining both the game data and the live feed, the Management reserves the right to amend players' balances accordingly.

Disconnection Policy

If the player loses connection and does not play within the specified period the hand will be automatically folded.

If the disconnection occurs from the server side and all players are disconnected the game will be voided and all bets placed in the interrupted game will be refunded to the players.


Collusion

If team play (also known as collusion) is suspected, the Management has the right to suspend the suspicious accounts and freeze their funds while an investigation is conducted.


Players found to have been acting, or reasonably suspected of acting as a team, will have their account privileges on the portal indefinitely terminated as well as throughout all the casinos operated by Casinò Vittoriosa.

Casinò Vittoriosa membership can be revoked at anytime for any reason.

The funds in a player’s account will be returned unless the player has been found to have cheated another player or players, in which case some or all of the funds may be distributed to the victims of the abuse.

Should funds be returned to a player having broken the house rules, a 25€ administrative fee may be applied. In no event will Casinò Vittoriosa confiscate funds for its own use. Funds arising or left over from fraudulent activities will be transferred to the gaming authority.

Rake

A rake equal to 5% is applied uniformly to all tables and is capped at a maximum of 5€ per hand on virtual, 2€ on heads-up and 10€ on 'live' tables.


Version 2.0
Last revised 6th March, 2012


Chat rules (Poker)

Poker is a social game and the following rules are meant to ensure that it remains so.

Chat is made available for casual chatting between players in a friendly and courteous manner and for no other reason.

Commenting on current hands is strictly forbidden.

Cards may not be disclosed until a hand is finished and players should also refrain from commenting to the table during a hand on cards they have folded, as any information that may be inferred may also influence the hand in play.

Use the chat sparingly so as to not interfere with timely and courteous play. Players may not type words, characters or phrases into chat that make it difficult for others to use the chat feature. Any comments of racial, ethnic or sexual nature will be considered a breach of etiquette.

Please note that all chat must be in Italian or English language.

Harassing, intimidating or otherwise interacting with other players in a manner judged contrary to poker etiquette will not be tolerated and will most certainly lead to temporary, or even permanent banning of chat privileges and in extreme cases may lead to account suspension.

All chat is recorded and monitored for compliance with these rules.
Chat abuse and/or suspicious chat may be reported to the Gaming Authority at the discretion of the monitoring team.
Failure to comply with any of these behavior rules can lead to chat blocking.

If you have any questions regarding the chat rules, or a player is being abusive, rude or disruptive at the table, we urge you to advise support directly via the game's chat and/or contact support via email under the "Contact Us" section of the website.
