How long will it take to pay out the PGA golf results? I understand the other sports are paid automatically and this will take a while to do manually.
I'm just looking for an ETA?

This was explained in the Bet Status. The result was a dead heat and a manual review was required.

Your bets have now been settled.

Both those bet I psted were winners and neither were paid correctly. Could you please review.
On both I picked Rory McElroy to finish in the Top 5 or Top 10...he finished #1, meaning both of those bets were winners.
Neither were paid out as winning. Will you explain why I did not win the bet when I picked Rory to place in the Top 5 and he won the tourney, but I didn't win my bets?

That's not a mistake. Payout was reduced because the result was a dead heat.

There were 6 winners in the top 5 bet instead of the expected 5 winners so the payout was multiplied by 5/6.
There were 12 winners in the top 10 bet instead of the expected 10 winners so the payout was multiplied by 10/12.

Following is the relevant information from our Rules page :

Dead Heats

The Dead Heat Rule applies to bets where there are more winners than expected, unless stated otherwise in the Specific Sports Rules and/or the Bet Information.

For each bet on a relevant winning selection, the payout is reduced in proportion by multiplying it by the sum of the number of winners expected, divided by the number of actual winners.

For example, assume there is a dead heat for first place between three horses and you have bet on one of the winners for a stake of 3 BTC at odds of 4.0. When the event is settled, your payout of 12 BTC is multiplied by 1/3 (i.e. the number of expected winners (1) divided by the number of actual winners (3)) for a total reduced payout of 4 BTC.

Please feel free to contact me for any further information.

I think your dead heat rules are the same as with fiat bookmakers.
Therefore I also think that you graded his golf winners correctly  Wink

(Although I obviously have to agree that it now feels like a loss when his 1.02 odds are reduced)

He finished #1, Not tied for #1, but came in at #1. The dead heat would have been between the players tied for #5 or #10.

If your bet was on Rory McIlroy to win then your bet would not have been subjected to the dead heat rule because he did not share first place with another player.

However, your bet was on Rory McIlroy to finish in the top 5 and there were 6 players who shared the top 5 spot and therefore the dead heat rule applies.

This is a standard universal rule among Sportbooks. The reasoning behind it is because we the bookies have to pay out more winners than expected. For example in the top 5 bet we have to pay out 6 winners instead of 5, that's why the payout is proportionally reduced for each winner.

When a dead heat occurs your bet may partially win or lose.

I don't really understand how you could partially win or lose as you put it.  It would be a loss for everyone as far as I can tell.  Unless you mean if you had the guy tied for 10th (in a top 10 scenario) you would only lose 1/10th of the winnings instead of 1/2.

In other words, for the top 10 bet, the bettor was saying only bettors with players finishing tied for 10th should have had bets reduced.  I can see either argument, it would be the same payout for the bookie as long as bookie reduced the payout to a third on the three players tied for 10th.
