    Bet the wrong side by accident....
    Maybe you have never made this stupid mistake before...

    If you have, what's your best or worst story betting the wrong side by accident?

    Not a big deal at all but just bet the over with betpoints. Was intending to bet the under but was multitasking!



    Ticket#:4529675
    Sep 26 12:00 PM
    Sep 24 08:25 AM CFB STRAIGHT BET
    [389] TOTAL o77-110
    (UCF vrs EAST CAROLINA)
    2000.00 / 1818.18
    I've got a "real money bet" on the under for a lot more than the value of 2k betpoints so hopefully ECU comes out flat and UCF doesn't score 64+

          I did it one time I MEANT to bet the Florida Gators total under in the first half. Teddy Dupay hits a fade away three pointer before the buzzer and puts it over

            wrongly added a zero to a bet once or twice also

                Sometimes they let you cancel if the line hasn't changed.

                Bookmaker and BOL have canceled some of my bets.

                  Done it more than once. Always when in a hurry. I've gotten out of most of them if its before the game starts. The times they won't let me. I will live bet the other side ASAP to recoup it close to even. Usually, lose about 10-20 bucks on the ordeal doing that. Most of the time, if you are honest and the game "just started" they will cancel it. If you ask all the time, then forget it.

                  In some cases above, referring to placing the bet on a total when I wanted a side or the money line when I wanted a side, etc. But, if its just the wrong side, then double-up on the right side as polock mentioned.

                      Ive done it a few times

                      Definitely easier to do on over under though

                        The best is when you do it and dont realize you did it, and you lose what you thought you bet, then check your bet results and see a winner.

                          dont have the bet points to fade it. So best case for me is I lose the bet points and win my 1k real dollars. Chalk up the bet points to retardation...
