    The D Las Vegas offered refunds on losing Packer bets

    funny thing is no one on sbr is named Gino DiFelice. Fat people lying online to people they don't know is about as embarrassingly pathetic as it gets.

    Yeah I heard a casino did refund for the game but my local was having none of it. Did'nt bust his balls over it but figured it was worth a try. Oh well!

    Alot of books did, but because mine was the final game of a 5 or 6 parlay, that every other game before hand won, mind you, I couldnt get a refund

    To give you an idea how much money players put into the pool, the $725k was after the OLG took their cut, which I believe is 40%.

    From the article: "His winnings are the third-highest ever awarded in the Pro-Line game."

    Sick but not sickest

    That shows what you know.

    Only a matter of time before Gino steps forward and substantiates TT's claim.

    In other news, I heard Jerry Lawler is soon going to become an SBR member, too.

    The books can't be allowing refunds. The bet rests on the final score regardless of fukked up calls. Plenty of people have and will continie to be screwed on bets because of bad calls by refs/umpires/judges. Where do they draw the line on giving refunds??

    BTW, the title is somewhat misleading. It was technically a pool, not a parlay.

    It's the OLG: http://proline.olg.ca/prolineEvents.do

    Can't play it online though, have to get the tickets where the lotto machines are in Ontario. No shortage of those

    The guy is from brantford, he made posts on other forums that he Knew he won before the MNF game.

    If i had to bet there is no way that the guy who won the pool only played a $5.00 ticket.

    i bet you when that cheque clears payments will be going out to his friends. (just wish i was one of them)

    Why not if it's only five bucks. Or flip a coin for each game, heads is the home team, tails the visitor

    This happens every year ... think a couple years ago, some guy bet KC against the undeated Packers and ended up being a single winner; and also this couple a few years back who raked the entire pot by betting against NE & Ravens in the same week. You just gotta make the most unpredictable ticket, lol
