    Bookmaker had Milwaukee available on live bet vs the reds at -117 when the game got tied in bottom of 1st inning. That line should have been around -300

    I put 2k on Milwaukee before the game was locked. Can they void my bets?

    Happened to me before and was voided.

    Rightfully so I suppose.

              He means if Mil wins they'll void it; if they lose, they won't. Heads I win, tails you push.

                You are going to have to sweat this. Pray that Brewers win so they can void it but if they lose this game it will be considered a loss.

                  good luck with that. You are taking shots and may be banned. Very stupid move when you have as much funds as you claim on bookmaker. I'd personally ban you and make you jump through 1000x hoops to get your money back for pulling a stunt like that. I bet milwaukee +120 when they were down 3-0 after top 1st. Such a silly move on your part pal

                        What stunt?

                        Not my fault they offered a live bet and then they choose to accept my action

                          you made a big bet on a clear line error. In vegas they'd take you out back and break your legs and ban you for life back in the day. How much you want to bet they reverse this at some point today and potentially ban you from live betting? They graded my benzema to score a win yesterday and 2 hrs later reversed it and I didnt take any shots. Good luck pal.

                            -125 was out there and traded, same with -118.

                            -117 is not that far off.

                            OP claims the book put up a LIVE bet up on accident.

                            Why make that claim? Why do you think it was an accident?

                            Has this turned into a hypothetical thread?

                              You think the true line was -117 when the game was tied at bottom of 1st inning?

                                when they were down 3-0 the line was only +120. He bet a -118 line tied 3-3 when the actual line was around -300.....

                                    I didn't make a big bet. I bet about 2k


                                    Again. It's not my fault. They offered a bet and I took it

                                      Bookmaker is a top notch book. I am not surprised they honored it. It's their own mistake

                                        For live it all depends on when, you know that.

                                        But I still think -117 is different than had it been +300 when it should have been -300. That's more of an obvious type error.

                                          You may not have understood what happened here.

                                          You keep using the word "mistake" when you should consider that it might not apply here.

                                            lol i would bet you 2k they reverse this. Literally happened to me yesterday when I thought I had gotten a lucky ruling on a prop bet that hit in overtime. They don't review bets in real time. Let us know how this plays out bud. I've seen books literally close accounts over this. Tony is rolling over in his grave wishing he could destroy you

                                              Agreed.

                                              If they made a mistake, they will correct it.

                                              They won't just pay out because they are a "top notch book"

                                              If they agree with the line, nothing will change.

                                              Player should not assume book made a mistake without calling the book to confirm, if so then player admits to taking a shot.

                                              Not good for player.

                                                You might get lucky once betting these type of lines, but if you keep doing it they will freeroll you, limit you or put a severe delay on your live bets. All bookies have bad lines like this covered in their rules.

                                                  Just saw the "line should have been -300" bit. I don't follow baseball so I don't know what the line should have been in that scenario. If other books had a similar line as BM but you thought it should have been -300, you're fine. If BM stood out and other books had them around -300, see my previous post.

                                                    two different times today I made a live bet and clicked submit 3 seconds later only to see the line I bet on was different than the one I hit submit on. For example, I bet on the brewers -2.5 -130 today in the 8th when the reds got a man on and when the bet was submitted it said -3 +120 instead. Same thing with alcaraz in the 3rd set. I bet on him -2.5 (-140) games early in the 3rd and when i clicked submit it said -3.5 -110 instead. I'm clicking and pressing submit within seconds and even though both hit I couldn't be more frustrated when this happens. They should give you a 30 second window to cancel a bet that had a line change as you submitted it.

                                                      There's a thread about that LIVE ticket switching up on us when trying to submit.

                                                      That's still happening? I haven't noticed and haven't been hearing much about it recently.

                                                        if the line before the game was in the -250 range pregame, what do you think the live line would be when the brewers put up 3 runs and tied it up in the bottom of the 1st?

                                                          yes, bookmaker. almost as frustrating as when it used to take 10 times to try and get a live bet in bc of the line movements.

                                                            It is what it trades at, period.

                                                            Trades went off at these levels, regardless of what anyone thinks the line should be.

                                                            If you have a market to compare it to, a case could be made, I suppose, I don't see that in the marketplace.

                                                            BM will correct a mistake if it was made.

                                                            As a general practice, BM needs to correct these sooner though, and audit those LIVE lines during the games.

                                                              At any given moment, there is a range of odds across the various live betting platforms. And while these can and do differ, they are going to differ within a somewhat narrow range, especially in the first inning. So Mil might have been across various platforms: -300, -250, -270, -290, -275, etc. That sort of thing. But then if you see all those along with one lone outlier at -117, clearly they did make an error. Doesn't mean it should be canceled, but that's outside the range. Nevertheless, books don't really like to do a lot of canceling and so unless it is patently off AND they take a ton of action, they will probably not bother. From my experience and understanding, regulated onshores are even less likely to void than offshores.
