    Lightning delay question in the Marshall/WVU game

    I have the Marshall/West Virginia game, they are currently in a lighting delay. If the game is called does the book grade it ?!

    no bet if cancelled, they just showed a shot of the stadium a few minutes ago, looks like its clearing up.

    Fail. Standard grading is at least 55 minutes in a football must be played.

    Yes it is an offical game but it is NOT an official game in our degen world.

    Like jarvol just said in the betting world its 55 minutes to be an official bet.

    55 minutes is the industry standard, so if they don't resume, no bet.

    They WANT to play the game, but I think every time there is a lightning strike within six miles of the stadium, it is an automatic 30 minute delay

    What if you have a 3 team teaser and it's the last leg? Do I autowin? Or is it refunded? Was a freeplay.

    Pretty sure it's treated as a push and you win the next parlay payout level down Cougs.

    Yeah it's a strike within 6 miles so they should just call it because there is no end in sight on the radar and I can get my money back.

    Haha, you could have just texted me, bro.. I know all this crap.. 55 minutes for official grading.. If you didn't already know that, I'm surprised you didn't figure it out after all the WMU/Michigan talk yesterday..

    If the game isn't finished tonight, there are 4 Options:

    1. A forfeit
    2. Call the game with the score as-is determining the winner.
    3. Suspend the game, and pick it up in a future date.
    4. Call a no contest.

    All ungraded wagers would be considered no action.

    #2 is the most likely option, although it won't do the bettors any good

    I'm pretty sure the books are making phone calls right now for the game to be played in its entirety tonight. There are probably tens of millions of bets on that game since it was only one of two games today. And don't forget the teasers and parlays since many people teased and parlayed the only 2 games of the day.

    It reduces to to a 2-team teaser as long as that teaser exists.

    If the 2-teamer doesn't exist, such as a 10-point teaser that requires a minimum of three teams, should be a refund.
