It's illogical to say a player should be paid on winnings from ill-gotten gains. By that thinking he could have bet $570 instead of 57 cents at +7000 and ended up with 4 million dollars and let it all ride right away. The same argument would apply that hey, he made other bets a the correct odds with the winning cash so those bets have to be good and he is owed millions. It's the books fault for paying him with an extra zero to begin with.

The only reason he got the 11k and the reason we are discussing it now is because it was such a small amount but the reality is it was 10x the correct payout. I'll add that the bad line rule is subjective in that it says it needs to be a gross/obvious error. That rule implies the player should know better initially or be able to understand afterwards why it was such an error. In a lot of cases the player can make a case that he really doesn't understand how that is an obvious gross error. This is not one of those times.

Is the rule on 5 Dimes also illogical, Bill?

5Dimes reserves the right to correct grading errors at any time. If an account reaches a negative balance due to the re-grade of an event, all in-progress pending wagers will stand and be honored. Since winning wagers in this instance will be honored, immediate settlement of losing wagers is also expected.

It explicitly states that the wagers stand.

What the fukk happened to this place, Bill? It's absolutely sickening.
