quick question about footie betting

was asked by a friend to place an accumulator bet for him today, got there late and the everton game had already started. This was unknown to me, just got home and realised.

Is the bet void now or will i just lose that matches odds?

cheers

You will just lose the odds for that match in most places I think.

You'll lose that match from the bet, but the others will still stand. This is with EVERY bookmaker.

That selection will become null and void within your bet. If you have only a single, you will be able to possibly get a return of your stake. If you have any form of accumulator - say you played a fivefold - it will decrease to the one below; in this case - a fourfold. If you had played a fourfold and the selection was void, your bet would become a treble and so forth.

You will not lose the accumulator. You will only lose the selection.
