If the line was off-market then I can understand it, however I'm not sure what the # was everywhere else offhand. If you feel you need some assistance with that matter, please feel free to fill out a complaint form and one of us will inquire to them on your behalf to find all the details that surround your dispute.

**bubba** · 01-17-09, 01:18 AM

it was a halftime wager for 3k. if i didnt place it there, i would have someplace else. if its a bad line put up at the begging of 1/2 time it should not take untill the end of the 3rd quarter to change. is that a bad line anyway? 106 vs 110? there lines are always off some. they put up weird halftime lines all the time if anyone notices. seriously, tonight they had pistons -.5 instead of -4. they put up didffernt numbers sometimes. i really feel like i got freerolled. they cancelled it 1/2 way through. this is bullshit

**bubba** · 01-17-09, 01:27 AM

filled out the form. they just cant cancell a wager that late. they might as well cancel it when the game is over then. or a week later.

**Peep** · 01-17-09, 01:30 AM

This does not sound like a book I would want to wager $3 at, much less 3K.

What they did is of course not right, but what they are doing to other players by reducing limits in the middle of rollovers is not right either.

This is not a right book......

**sofun** · 01-17-09, 01:32 AM

they can delete the under over 106 and should be 110, but they should not delete the point spread.

**bubba** · 01-17-09, 01:32 AM

Bottom line- the line was off by what-3%? Is that even a bad line? thats like football 20 vs 21 on a halftime line? If its a abd line then cancel right away, they did not do this. not even close. they would not provide me with the time it was cancelled but i know it was way late cause it was pending in my account forever!

**poetwarrior41** · 01-17-09, 01:33 AM

You got robbed my friend, if they would have cancelled your play before the 3rd quarter started, i got no problem with that. But to cancel it after the game is started is not right, they made the mistake and didnt catch it, thats the Books problem not yours.

**sofun** · 01-17-09, 01:34 AM

I believe SBR can help in this case, any books nowaday will steal players money if they have a chance unless we demand hard, good luck

**AgainstAllOdds** · 01-17-09, 01:35 AM

These guys do this and SBR has used them as a contest sponsor in the past?!?!?

Unreal.

**poetwarrior41** · 01-17-09, 01:35 AM

This is the same type of BS that the owners of this book pulled when they were over at NASA. Everyone should avoid this book like you would a case of the clap.

**bubba** · 01-17-09, 01:36 AM

if they cancell before the 3rd quarter starts i have no problem. if i bet over 82 instead of 110 and the cancel midway through the 3rd quarter its not great but i bet into an obvious bad line. betting 106 vs 110 and having it cancelled late in the 3rd quarter (at least) - this is at best horrible judgemet by the book. at worst, they tried to take a shot at me.

**diogee** · 01-17-09, 01:39 AM

Sounds like they initially posted the Lakers halftime line for this one since they were both at the half around the same time. As a player how are you honestly supposed to know a halftime line is a bad line without it being totally obvious? I wouldn't call 106 obvious imo.

**InTheHole** · 01-17-09, 01:39 AM

4 points is a VERY bad line but I think they should honor it since you waited 30 minutes after it looked like a win.

**bubba** · 01-17-09, 01:47 AM

106 vs 110 is a very bad line? i disagree sir.

this is so stressfull. i gamble over my head and 3k is a ton of $$ to me and im pissed right now. i wont be able to sleep tonight thanks to this book. im jst pissed now.

Yeah i don't consider that a bad line either. I have seen halftime movement of almost that much in 10 minutes before.

**bubba** · 01-17-09, 01:55 AM

now this pops up in my account. forget about not cancelling till the end of the 3rd quarter (for a moment). Was this an OBVIOUS mechanical, technical or human error? I really dont think so. this is so shady. a-not an obvious bad line b- cancelling so goddam late.

**bettilimbroke999** · 01-17-09, 01:58 AM

It's amazing you still play there after all the complaints youve posted about them, why not try a diff book?

**InTheHole** · 01-17-09, 02:00 AM

That was a laker line and was changed in 1 minute (moved 4 points-impossible due to action unless someone with 1 million went with the over) according to http://www.sbrodds.com/. No other book was remotely even close.

**bubba** · 01-17-09, 02:01 AM

i got my moeny there, they dont do book to book transfers and have a max 5k bankwire withdrawl per 3 days. thats the cheapest withdrawl method so i am requesting that every 3 business days. i hate to just leave my cash sitting there. (i am obviously not going to depsoit there again!)

**bubba** · 01-17-09, 02:05 AM

inthehole- no problem. if they deem than an obvious bad line, then cancel my wager then. i placed it at the begginig of 1/2 time. cancelling it at end of 3rd quarter is shady. but i dont think 106 vs 110 constitutes an obvious bad line anyway. but even if it was, they had plenty of time to cancel it.

**InTheHole** · 01-17-09, 02:08 AM

I agree...those emails should have gone immediately out.

**bubba** · 01-17-09, 02:11 AM

email? haha. dont push it. only by logging out and into my account did i see it. i was looking for it all night and did not find it till now. about an hour after the game ended! have recieved 0 emails from them.

I know you want the 3k but perhaps an exemption to their rule, perhaps a full interbook or wire at no charge is in order if they do not respond favorably.

**bubba** · 01-17-09, 02:18 AM

perhaps, but that would be an absolute last resort. i cant see how they can remain top rated and have their banner at the top of this page without rectifying this.

**Bill Dozer** · 01-17-09, 03:00 AM

Hi Bubba,

I replied to your complaint form submission earlier.

4 points is not a gross error for an NBA half. It happens sometimes and in general, shouldn't be canceled after the bet is in play. It's odd that you saw it jump from the 104 to 110 and the 104 bets stood.

If it's as you describe, my guess is a lineman made a mistake that mgt. will have to fix. We'll get a mgr's take on it asap.

**tomcowley** · 01-17-09, 03:07 AM

If they considered 106 a bad line, there's no excuse not to void it immediately, since they recognized their "mistake" and changed it in one fell swoop. Waiting was obviously taking a shot on one-sided action.

**awhitejackson** · 01-17-09, 03:20 AM

GL Bubba.... It seems as if you were ripped IMO...Just let the guys here do their thing and hopefully it works out...

**reno cool** · 01-17-09, 03:21 AM

No way can they justify not paying by saying the line was bad. Unless it's a blatant typo like a price with an extra zero behind it they are responsible.

**bubba** · 01-17-09, 07:24 AM

thanks bill, please keep me updated.

Would it be best for me to stay out of it and let SBR do there thing or should i try and present my case to whoever i can at the book?

thanks SBR!

Bingo.

**fiveteamer** · 01-17-09, 09:40 AM

How can a 4 pts difference on a HT total be a BAD LINE??

Tiger Woods +100000 to win the Buick Open, that is a bad line.

If that 106 didn't cover, there's no way they would have canceled it.

What a bunch of scumbags.

Only reason this book is rated A because they pumping money into jjgold's pockets.

unreal.

**HeeeHAWWWW** · 01-17-09, 10:04 AM

Yet another reason not to use this book.

**fiveteamer** · 01-17-09, 10:07 AM

The real sad thing here is that SBR's rating helps them cheat players.

Good job SBR.

First thing the CS did was get the guy to check the SBR rating.
