Your stake will be returned to your account, so you neither win nor lose the wager that you’ve placed. They have made your wager null and void, essentially returning it to a point that means it is as if it had never been placed. A voided bet is one that has basically been cancelled by your bookmaker. What A Bet Void Meansīefore we look into why a bookmaker might make a bet void, let’s briefly look into what making a bet void actually means. There are also some bets you can place where might expect them to be made void but they’re not, which you need to know about too. There are some obvious reasons why it happens as well as some less obvious ones. Knowing the reasons why a bet might be made void is helpful, given that it will stop you from puzzling over why your stake was put back into your account and the bet didn’t play out as you’d expect. It’s better than it ending up as a losing bet, of course. It can be frustrating when you’ve placed a bet that you’re sure is going to be a winner, only to find out that it has been made void and you’ve had your stake returned to you.
There are all sorts of reasons why a bet might be made void, such as an event not taking place as it was supposed to or a player that you’ve bet on as the First Goalscorer not actually playing.
