    Cashing overs during the game

    Does anybody know of a sportsbook that cashes overs while the game is still in progress?

    Absolutely zero. Over/unders aren't official until the game goes 9 innings (8.5 if home team is ahead).

    Some books do have Virtual If bets where you can make a bet on the assumption that your first bet will win. Bet Jamaica does this for one -- and I am sure there are others.

    So your saying, if a game goes 2 innings and the score is already 11-8 and its cancelled due to weather, the over/under is "no action"...

    Thats pretty stupid if thats the case

    brady2moss,
    that's the way it is in bases (has to go 8 1/2 or 9, football (has to go 55 minutes) and basketball (not sure of exact minutes played required but think close to complete game with 2 minuts left on clock.
    almost only sport it comes into play is bases. have had bad beats both ways but seem to equal out over the years.

    Yes, that is the case, plus in your example, it isn't even an official game at that point.

    It also works the other way. If it is 2-0 after 5 innings and the rains come and end the game (an official game), all over/under total bets are NO ACTION. This is standard baseball betting rules everywhere.
