LiveScore Bet Extra Places: More Each-Way Places on Selected Races
LiveScore Bet Ireland offers Extra Places on selected horse races every day, giving each-way bettors a better chance of receiving a return when their selection finishes just outside the standard places.
The exact number of places available depends on the individual race and the number of runners. Where the Extra Places offer is active, the enhanced place terms are shown on the relevant race before you place your bet.

How does the Extra Places offer work?
When LiveScore Bet marks a horse race as eligible for Extra Places, each-way bets can be paid on more finishing positions than under the standard place terms.
For example, a race that would normally pay three places may be promoted with four or more places. This means your horse could finish outside the usual payout positions but still qualify for the place part of your each-way wager.
The enhanced terms apply only to specifically selected races, so customers should check the race details before betting.
How many places can LiveScore Bet pay?
The number of places depends on the promotion displayed for the race and how many horses actually start.
The supplied terms set out the following minimum-runner rules:
| Advertised places | Minimum runners required | What happens if runners fall below the limit? |
|---|---|---|
| 3 places | 7 runners | Standard place terms apply |
| 4 places | 12 runners | Standard place terms apply |
| 5 places | 16 runners | Pays 4 places at 1/5 odds |
| 6 places | 20 runners | Pays 5 places at 1/5 odds |
These rules are important because non-runners can change the final place terms even after an Extra Places offer has initially been advertised.
What happens if there are non-runners?
The final number of starters can affect the promotion.
If a race advertised with three places has fewer than seven runners, or a four-place race falls below 12 runners, the enhanced offer is removed and the normal place terms apply.
For races advertised with five places, fewer than 16 starters reduces the payout to four places at 1/5 odds. For six-place races, fewer than 20 starters means LiveScore Bet pays five places at 1/5 odds instead.
Do ante-post bets qualify?
No.
The Extra Places promotion does not apply to ante-post wagers.
To benefit from the enhanced place terms, you need to place an eligible each-way bet on a selected race where the Extra Places offer is currently displayed.
Is there a wagering requirement?
There is no rollover or playthrough requirement attached to this promotion.
Extra Places is not a deposit bonus or Free Bet offer. It simply changes the number of finishing positions that may qualify for the place portion of an eligible each-way bet.
Any winnings are settled according to the applicable enhanced place terms for that race.
How long is the Extra Places promotion available?
The supplied terms do not give a fixed end date.
LiveScore Bet states that Extra Places are available on selected races every day, although the operator reserves the right to remove the offer when necessary.
Terms and conditions of the promotion
The Extra Places offer is available to LiveScore Bet members who are 18 or over, resident in Ireland and physically located in the country when participating.
Customers must have a registered LiveScore Bet account and comply with the operator’s general Terms and Conditions.
