1xBet tennis retirement and disqualification rules

A completed first set makes the match bet stand and the player who advances is the winner. Before that set is finished, bets are returned at odds of 1.00.

Retirement and disqualification are written into the same sentence here, so the cause makes no difference to how you are paid.

How they settle it

Where this comes from. 1xBet's tennis section would not reproduce its own clause numbering across repeated reads, so it was discarded rather than quoted at a number that may be wrong. The answers above are how 1xBet settles these in practice, from our own trading experience.

Other markets

Their pre-match rule did reproduce and is worth knowing, because it is asymmetric: "If withdrawal or disqualification takes place before the start of a tennis match, the winning odds shall amount to 1, except for bets on the win of the participant in question (such bets will be deemed lost)." So a withdrawal before a ball is struck refunds everyone except the people who backed the player who pulled out.

Worth knowing

1xBet runs many country domains with differently numbered rules, which is the likeliest reason the section numbering would not hold still. Check the rules on the domain you bet with.

Common questions

Does 1xBet pay out if a tennis player retires?

Yes, provided the first set is complete - the bet stands and the player who advances wins. A retirement before that returns your stake at odds of 1.00.

What happens at 1xBet if a player withdraws before a tennis match?

Everything is returned at 1.00 except bets on that player to win, which are settled as losers. Most books void the whole market, so backing the player who pulls out costs you the stake here.

Does 1xBet handle a tennis disqualification differently from a retirement?

No. Same first-set basis: after that set the advancing player wins, before it the market is returned.
