    Heritage Live Betting Question

    I placed a live betting wager on an MLB game last night and at the time of the wager it was the half inning and the team was down 2-1. Well right after I bet it, there was an appeal and they said the run had scored. So it was 3-1 after the half inning? Is my wager still valid? Shouldn't it be cancelled? Down 3-1 is a big difference from being down 2-1

    If the bet was accepted before the appeal decision then I think you would be out of luck.

    Of course. And if you bet the team that was now up 3-1--instead of 2-1--they'd cancel the bet and say line error

    Hey man, I saw you sent me a private message but I can't respond because I am new to the site. Yes I did contact customer service to review the wager. I just don't understand how this wager could be valid?? I mean a 2-1 game going in to the middle of the inning is completely different than a 3-1 game in to the middle of the inning.

    i dont see how they can cancel the bet. in football, if a wager i placed before an official review, all wagers would stand. this is just 1 of the dangers (or sometimes advantages) of live betting

    In football if there is a play where there is an official review the betting freezes. That's exactly what happened last night, I was watching the game and as soon as the 3rd out was made, the wager came available. I bet it and when I got brought back to the screen it was frozen. Well sure enough when the game came back on there was a review. As soon as the review happened and they allowed the run, the betting came back on after it was 3-1

    What was the new line shown when the score was 3-1? Any different than it was when it was 2-1. the line shouldn't have changed that much unless it was late innings.

    having it "freeze" is not your god given right. its actually done to protect the book, not you. is there something specifically stated in their rules about all wagers being cancelled in the event of no freeze occurring at certain points? i doubt it. if yes though, you have a case!

    The bet should stand.
