    [FAKE CLAIM] FanDuel changes T&C after having to payout $2.2 million in parlay bets
    MOD EDIT: CONFIRMING THAT THIS TWITTER ALLEGATION IS UNTRUE. THERE IS NO RULE THAT ALLOWS FANDUEL TO ACT AS ALLEGED HERE AND THERE WAS NO RULE ALTERATION AS ALLEGED IN THIS FAKE NEWS TWEET



    Wtf is FanDuel thinking? This is horrible and total bs. FD is ruining it's brand. https://x.com/incarceratedbob/status...61568570458362

    There was a home run parlay bet on X (twitter) and a lot of people hit it one person cashed in over $100k with others cashing in large also, so FanDuel changed their terns and conditions and in the future they can refuse to pay you if they think you colluded with other bettors to come up with a big multi leg parlay. GTFO of here.

      I don't know but if it was me I wouldn't post the parlay on X (twitter) but would only share it using carrier pigeons. That's how you bypass rules.

        Do you think those rules wording really applies to people sharing their bets in public? Or tailing a public posted bet?

        I don't think the quoted rule changes apply to that situation.

        Misguided twitter outrage?

          Giving themselves license to void any winning parlay they want is a very bad idea. That violates public trust in the business. How many times do bunches of people tail public prognosticators and lose and the house rakes it in big ? much more often

            FanDuel claims the terms were already there and not part of the recent updated that coincided with the HR parlay hitting.

            Customers took to social media to claim the online sportsbook updated its terms and conditions after bettors hit on massive home run parlay.

              It would be difficult to enforce a rule to punish people for tailing a tipster when Fanduel (and all books?) advertize suggested bets to tail all over the place themselves.

              Some twitter goose trolling for views made this up by the looks.

              I updated the first post to help people not be tricked by the headline.

                How ironic that they lose their ass on the crazy parlays they peddle 24 hours a day, 9 million times a day.
