    Another BS "no action" from our friends over at Bovada

    I was crushing live betting all night and I guess Bovada decided they had enough...I made this bet when it was 56-14 and Atlanta had the ball and was driving down the field. What is this BS?

    Probably not, but I made over $300 betting on their ridiculous live lines tonight.....3rd quarter line ATL -.05 (+130)??? Lol. Made most of it off that alone. If they don't care, we'll see if they reverse it, because I care.

    No doubt. Atlanta drove to the 50 yard line that possession. Its funny how it was graded "no action" 5 minutes after the bet when they were forced to punt. So if Atlanta scores then I am just out of luck, huh? Blatant theft.

    Update: On the phone for nearly an hour with customer service. They claimed it was a line error and would not budge on reversing it. I asked what the error was and they would not disclose it. I said 48.5 sounds right since Atlanta was up 42 and had the ball and was driving down the field with ease like they had been all night. Had Atlanta score I would have lost, so it wasn't that big of an error. I wanted to know why it was graded no action right after Atlanta was forced to punt and not sooner. She put me on hold several times claiming to talk to a floor manager. They still wouldn't reverse it. I asked to talk to someone in sportsbook, I guess there was nobody to talk to. She finally gave in and said she could credit back half of the winnings. To add insult to injury it was in the form of a bonus with a rollover requirement. I know it was only $7.35 and I shouldn't care, but what if it was was $500 to win $735? A line error is +60, not a line that I could have and should have easily lost. Have a few open bets on Nascar, after that I am off to 5Dimes-won't miss you Bovada.
