    Yo have this happened to anyone ?

    you saw a bad line at your book and bet it, you won, and the book canceled it,you lost and the book took your money and fukked you over ?

    Is it our fault you got a bad line ? What if one is a newbie and do not know a difference ?

    If I see a bad line I'm pounding it I do not give a fuk

    It is never a good idea to bet a bad line.

    If it wins you'll always find it cancelled.

    If it loses you may well find that it is let stand.

    So you just can't win.

    Best to let the book know and you may get awarded a freeplay.

    Don't try to screw the books, you don't want them to screw you.

    See Hareeba's post.

    Yes, it has happened and its even worse when the book cancels it in the middle of the match while you are ahead.

    If you try to take a shot at a book and it ends up with them taking a shot at you - you deserve what you get, frankly.

    Yes, they should be more competent and ensure that the lines/odds posted are correct but that will generally mean more expense in terms of employing more or better people and when all is said and done that will result in a less valuable proposition for players.

    If you take a shot at a book on obvious faulty line you might get banned. Consider that before taking a shot.

    Took over 9 MLB bet on an overnight line at 5Dimes. Checked next day and they said it was canceled due to the real line being 9.5. Needless to say I got it rectified and they counted the bet as a win after I brought the issue up on SBR.

    I took wake forest +105 pts in cfb this season at SIA line was only up for a few minutes, real line was +10.5 was shocked I got paid for it but have had similar things happen with a mistaken ml value on live betting where the bet was cancelled.

    happens to me alot during live betting. i think it was flyers/habs and flyers were up 3-2 in the third and then the flyers ml came up +300. of course i had to play it, then after the game was over the bet got voided saying a bad line was offered. sometimes they void it, other times they let it go. worth a shot
