Nitro canceled all anthem wagers after placed after 3:29:28PM EST on Friday, due to "leaks."
This is BS to me.
1 - the video of the anthem timer was posted on Twitter at 6:30PM EST.
2 - leaks about anthem or halftime have been wrong in the past, who's to say this one was right?
3 - no other books I know of voided these
Sorry but just because you leave a line up late when information is floating around doesn't make it right to cancel wagers. Especially before "proof" is even posted online. There have been plenty of incidents in the past where leaks are wrong, and wagers gain steam and nothing is canceled - and then they end up losing. Oscars "leaks", purple Gatorade last year, etc.
This is BS to me. Happen to anybody else?
We hope this ticket finds you well.
We are reaching out to you in regards to your action on "Length of US National Anthem (From first word sung to end of last Brave sung.)".
It has come to our attention that information was leaked across the industry regarding the outcome of this proposition. Therefore, we have confirmed that all action taken on and after 15:29:28 EST could be related to this situation.
Based on the previous sources, we have proceeded to cancel all wagers placed at that specific time stamp and afterwards, in accordance with the following policy:
2. Bets made after the event has started and revealed outcomes (From General rules)
Although we will try our best to prevent the listing of any started event, Nitrogen Sports reserves the right to cancel any bet that was made after the event started. This also includes the scenario in which results have been revealed before the start of the event. This rule does not constitute an opportunity to 'freeroll' the sportsbook. Bets made a few seconds into a match in which no significant events have taken place (e.g. the first seconds of an eSports StarCraft match) does not give cause for bets to be cancelled. All judgment is at the sole discretion of Nitrogen Sports. A player will never benefit by betting a started match with the intention of referencing this rule when it loses.
Although we apologize for any inconvenience caused, please be aware that this decision is final.
