Does your Book allow mistaken plays to be corrected? Like, one played a minute ago?

      I've had BetIslands and 5DIMES cancel wagers for me in the past. Both told me it was a "one time exception". Still, it was very cool of them.

          I'm shocked at how many people here make mistakes with their bets. I guess I was wrong though that it is extremely rare. I must have read dozens of posts over a dozen years about not being able to change bets. On occasional someone will say a site helped them. I don't recall ever having 15 people show up to say yeah I've done it multiple times, or guys like Brian Laverty who has done it quite a few times at one, many at another and knows a third will too. So anyway guess I was wrong, I thought it was much more rare until reading this thread.

            Yet, they will cancel your wagers...LOL

              Prop, you shouldn't be surprised anymore, because these Books change lines like the cartoon I put in yesterday. Changing lines in mid-stream, leads to confusion and mistakes.
              I bet the Books love it, though.

                Yeah, blame the books for your stupidity, lack of reading skills and fat fingers.

                  I just noticed I have 4094 posts and this lad has 262, and he's trying to school me.
                  Hey Abe "All books are out to get me" Honest:

                  I know you are a longtime professional..but why did you think that Heritage should cover a BONUS on the FEES for your deposit? They already credited you the fee amount as well..

                  Are these the kind of posts that "pro's" create?: http://forum.sbrforum.com/players-ta...-resolved.html

                  Let me know if you need some more examples shown where you're completely out of touch...or just looking for some free handouts after you lost your deposit!

                    Nah has nothing to do with that. It usually has to do with someone mistyping or not understanding wtf they were betting.

                    I've posted on here about how I misunderstood a "where will LeBron James go" prop and my bets were voided other than my first bet. Thought I was going to make a killing betting on every other option than Cleveland until a poster pointed out that I'd totally read the whole thing wrong. I've also posted about how I made a bet on an NHL game not realising that I was betting on regulation time only so that was cancelled as well and my bet was placed including OT instead (still lost ffs). And I've posted several times about my taking a side or total accidentally and having to eat the juice and buy out by betting on the other side. Sometimes betting way more (by an extra zero or two) than I intended. Didn't even bother to ask to have those bets cancelled as those mistakes were due to my own carelessness. Often it's because of the different formats between books ie over/unders placed in flipped orders, rushing, on an iPad/phone, etc. I can't fault the book at all for my mistakes. If they cancel them, great. But if anyone is expecting that to be a part of normal CS - regardless of what country you're dealing with - you'll be sadly disappointed.
