Football bet settlement

Does a player getting two yellow cards count as two cards or three?

Direct answer

For bet365 Number of Cards, yellow = 1, red = 2, and a second yellow is ignored: a player sent off for two yellows counts as three card points (first yellow 1 + red 2). Other card-count markets can differ.

How to use this answer

This answer is based on the mathematical principle or published rule identified in the source below. If the question involves a live betting market, confirm its settlement definition before applying it to a specific bet.

Some card-index markets count two events, whereas other markets apply card-specific points; use the operator's published definition.

For player, card and corner markets, the exact selection type matters. A singles rule is not automatically the same as a bet-builder rule; use the market definition and the settlement source for the operator shown on your slip.
