    WSEX live betting: grading on suspended game 5 TB@PHI
    Did any forum members trade live betting contracts on Mondays suspended game 5 at WSEX??

    Were your Philadelphia/Tampa Bay contracts graded as a winner/loser or no action??

    WSEX live betting rules state:

    "A competition must be complete for trades to be considered action. If a competition is cancelled or postponed before reaching its originally intended length of play, ALL trades for the event will be refunded."

    There is no specific reference to "suspended" in the live betting rules.
    The competition was not "complete" and a MLB games originally intended length of play is 9 innings.

    At sister book matchbook, their live MLB betting rules state:

    "Live markets must go 9 innings (or 8.5 if the home team is leading) or else all live trades will be cancelled."

    I understand that straight wagers on this game were subject to grading at a 2-1 Philadelphia final, but live betting contracts are not straight bets.

    Your interpretations and opinions would be appreciated.

    Based on that wording, bets should be live until game is complete since it will reach the intended length of play and there is no stipulation that game must be completed the same day it started.

      Thanks for you input LT.

      WSEX confirmed that all contracts from Monday carry over to todays completion of the event.

      Certainly would have been nice to have been contacted/emailed by WSEX as to the status of these contracts since it was not entirely clear (at least to me) by the wording of the rules.
      Could easily conclude there was no action or based on what i read, or that the last inning complete rule may have been invoked.

      No further replies to this thread are necessary.
