    Sounds like bs to me, because -.5 lines happen all the time. They must have had tons of people betting on that and couldnt balance in time. Total bs.

      And if Denver didn't cover the half point in the 2H, you think you'd get a refund? Hell no.

        bad lines are subject to cancel, it does suck. How much did you put on it?

          If you mean that you bet Denver -.5 for the game right before the fourth quarter started, then you had zero chance of ever cashing that bet. If you find a blatantly bad line, then don't bother wasting your time getting all excited about it.

            If the odds were -110, that was just a bad line. Considering the line should be -9.5

                You can stop wasting your time and move on. Every reputable book voids bet like those when an egregious error is made putting out a line. Nothing wrong with shopping for a line, but betting a blatantly bad one is a waste of time.

                    Im confused, when you made that live bet, was it for a certain quarter or what, or how much was Denver ahead at that time?

                      Denver was ahead by 11 at the end of the 3rd and he bet them at -.5 for the game.

                            If they were up by 8 and the 4th quarter had already started and the line was -.5 for the game then that was a bad line considering Denver was already favored by 5.5 for the game. Now if before the 4th quarter the line read Denver -.5 for the quarter with them already up, then that would have sounded legit.

                                    Bookmaker always has bad lines. Take a look at their soccer lines.

                                      What did you expect? I am not knocking you too much, but -.5 on a 5 point favorite in the 4th quarter leading by 8?

                                      -.5 for the game is -900 or so at this point. You should know this, and it's fairly obvious you do because you bet it for your balance.

                                      I would love this kind of bet also, but they almost always get voided, and while you can't get your mistakes voided, the book has the power to void theirs. Just the way it is.

                                      Even though you may not love the book, you have to allow yourself to look at it from their perspective. They can't just give money away, unfortunately. I can't portray them as villains on this one.

                                            this is bullshit....i called supervisor and they said its a bad line..
                                            At the end of 3 quarters, Denver was leading Golden State 98-87 and Denver was a 5 1/2 point favorite to start the game.

                                            You jump on an obviously wrong line and bet Denver -0.5 points for the game even though you knew they were up by 11 and then complain and say its bullshit that Bookmaker voided the bet.

                                            While there's nothing technically wrong with you taking a clear and obvious shot against the book, I feel Bookmaker should remove the $110 from your account as a penalty for you starting this RIDICULOUS thread.

                                            If I were the manager of Bookmaker, I would terminate your account and tell you your business was no longer welcome.

                                            UNBELIEVEABLE!!!

                                                  Clearly a bad line. Not only a waste of your time, but now ours too.

                                                        give the guy a break, judging by the fact that he thought he was going to cash in on this tells you he is a rookie gambler

                                                          considering nobody bet GS at +.5, bookmaker pulls in a few hundred thousand bucks on that one bet.........could be a set up. but then you have to figure all the calls they must have gotten after the fact might not make it worth it.

                                                                  And BigD
