    Anyone else play Milwaukee-STL game yesterday 4/23 that was cancelled by 5Dimes?

    If you did look at your account. They told me through chat that it was cancelled because listed pitchers didn't start which both did. I sent them an official box score from the MLB website and they told me they would get back to me.

    I don't think it will be a big issue but just giving heads up in case anyone else bet that game through 5 Dimes.

    Update

    No resolution

    They tried to tell me there was two De leone's that play for STL and that one of them pitched and the other didn't

    One look at the roster and lo and behold only one De leone on the STL roster

    When I pointed this out on the chat with them I was promptly disconnected

    Oh wow

    Submit complaint with SBR or just message Archie (his bio says he is the one at SBR who works with 5dimes).

    I'm surprised they are acting this way when I have never had a problem with them before. So it tells me they have an issue with me and not the game itself. I have been with them for many many years.

    wacha was the original starter

    what does the bet say for listed pitchers? if you bet it after it was changed to de leon, then the only thing i can think of is they don't know that "daniel (ponce) de leon" and "ponce de leon" are the same guy

    thought everyone knew already....Fountain of Youth was only a myth

    that's probably why they didn't grade it a win

    Ready for this?

    De Leone was listed as "De Leone" on my original ticket. At least that's what I remember but I have no proof. When I looked at it again on my transactions page it was changed to D Leon (Who is a reliever not in the rotation). I remember "De Leone" being listed as the starter after the change was made from Waca. They tell me no and I think they typed it in after the fact. Again no proof but something seems fishy.

    So my question to 5Dimes is why after the change from Waca to De Leone would you list D leon? Honest mistake? Maybe? But I know I saw "De Leone as the starter. Not only that they follow the numbers from other books anyway so what's the diff? Other books paid the listed pitchers bets off. 5 Dimes was the only book that didn't.

    Just sayin

    Actual starter was Daniel Ponce de Leon. I am guessing they accidentally listed Dominic Leone?

    That's their side of it. But I know I saw the right one when I bet it. Again no proof but I would've noticed. I think lol

    Thing is the numbers didn't come out until the next morning and they follow other books numbers anyway. So why not pay it off anyway? Other books had it right

    That's chicken shit. Was the line correct? That's all that matters w what is otherwise a Scribvner error (legal term).

    Right odds, bets valid

    The odds were right. They're number was along with every other online book.

    Still doesn't look good for me no matter what.

    Because with listing errors there will almost always be someone on the losing side who took a free roll and is asking for their bets to be void due to the "confusing" error, quite rightfully.

    The grand salami was graded as no action in LV so the book s probably correct.

    Sorry but that's a clear freeroll by the book

    STL loses, the side with more money involved, they grade all bets a loss. No one questions a one off letter spelling error. Of course though, when STL wins, the heavier $ side, they rule it an error.

    Absolute joke. Off by one letter = error. Yeah, no. Next time I see I see a bet with the wrong stadium name involved in the bet listing, happened with a book for this past super bowl, I'll be sure to file an SBR dispute for wrong stadium name, error bet. What a joke.

    Yep. The reliever is Dominic Leone. Starter is Daniel ponce de Leon. Shouldn’t be any confusion and Dominic has never started a gm I’m aware of.

    Sounds like some bs chicken shit grading, kind of stuff that leads to well you know the stuff that has happened

    Unfortunately this only works for the rooster sucking books who pay advertising dolllars. They accuse us of taking shots for a excuse not to pay but then they take a shot at you by claiming a guy who has never started was listed as starter. What a fukkin joke. Sounds like someone else should get duct taped.

    It’s a mistake by a uninformed book. Will Hill graded it as a loss. They don’t have a clue either.

    If you think about it they don't even know rosters that well. So to give them the benefit of the doubt I guess I could call it an honest mistake. It just seems bizarre to me that it happened this way when 1) They knew of the pitching change and didn't post a number until the next morning and 2) Their number was right along in line with the other books who they just follow anyway.

    I do get that whoever had Milwaukee were going to demand their money back but that's only if they noticed which I doubt they ever would have. You would really have to be paying close attention to the ticket to even notice. Only reason I noticed is because of the cancelled wager and still didn't notice even a full day after I disputed it.

    when was the bet cancelled? to me that is also important... if they cancelled it in the 1st/2nd inning that's much different than after the game

    Come on, what are the chances the baseball linespeople at 5dimes aren't aware of two pitchers on the same team with such similar names? Sounds scammy, 5 dimes

    They have the start time as 7:45pm and the wager was cancelled at 8:05pm

    But that stuff can be edited

    MLB should return all wagers. What the heck is com. manfred doing putting 2 guys that have somewhat confusing names on the same team?



    this did not happen when steve carlton was throwing for STL a few years ago.

    Are you trying to say that two guys with the same or similar names can't play on the same team?

    Put the bong down pal.

    arizona cardinals had john brown and jaron brown at the same time, and places were putting "j brown" in their receiver props/matchups for a while until there was some screwed up grading
