Need help with settling a prop bet!

The site my local uses had a prop bet for total point ranges for each team, and the odds I had for each team were:

SF total points between 29 - 34: 20-1
Balt total points between 29 - 34: 12-1

And I hit them both.

I found out at half he was cancelling the bets because the odds were off. I say not my fault and that's a little late to cancel bets... but I'm curious what the actual odds would be on those bets. Does anyone have a link or information on what those odds actually were? I can find odds for an exact team score, but not a range.

Thanks for any help!

It def makes sense that he said the odds were off. He prob just had them reversed. Because the niners wouldnt be a higher payout on points scores than the ravens would be. So if I had to guess you won the same amount anyway, if you bet the same on both teams. Because the odds were prob san fran at 12-1, and balt at 20-1. Good luck with tryin to collect

I was able to find the odds archived from my site... they are a little off from when I got them, but they are close. Clearly they were screwed up (I didn't even notice when I bet them because I only looked at the ranges where I thought the game would be).

Total Points for Ravens	Odds
0-3	225
4-6	425
7-9	425
10-13	650
14-17	750
18-23	900
24-28	800
29-34	1200
35-38	1200
39+	450

Total Points for San Fran	Odds
0-3	200
4-6	400
7-9	425
10-13	375
14-17	425
18-23	600
24-28	1000
29-34	1800
35-38	2000
39+	2000

So I had four $100 bets. On SF between 24-28, and between 29-34; and Balt between 24-28 and between 29-34. I should get paid something because I locked up $400 on these bets that didn't get cancelled until half way through the game, and I hit two of them at great odds and lost the other two (it ended up being a $3K swing). So I wanted to see if there is any way to find what the odds for these bets would really be - and say at least pay me on the right odds.
