Football bet settlement

Why did my passes bet lose even though the player came on for 20 minutes?

Direct answer

Under Sportsbet’s published rule, pre-match player-passes bets are VOID if the selected player is not in the starting XI, even if they later play 20 minutes. Another bookmaker can use a different participation rule.

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 pass markets require the selected player to start, so a substitute's later performance may not make the bet valid.

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.
