    Of Course the Sim Games would run into this. Help with opinion please.

    Madden Sim dilemma

    Placed a second half wager on Pats -2.5
    First off the wager was dead. Pats started second half with 7 point lead.
    Game is in overtime. Patriots intercept the ball.
    Ball is spotted on opponents 30 yard line.
    Obviously not right and the stream is paused. Game doesn't continue.

    I get the wager is dead as far as winning goes.
    However these are the rules posted on the site for these wagers.

    It would seem reasonable that this falls under rule 5 where the stream was not reestablished and should be settled as no action.

    4. For any segment betting (quarter, half) all wagers have action if segment is completed, regardless of whether rest of the game is completed.

    5. If the stream is disconnected the game will be halted until the stream can be re-established. If the stream cannot be re-established then all incomplete segments will be settled No Action.

    2nd half bet includes OT, so I would say segment was not complete.

    For the record its on Bovada.
    Its not a huge bet for me. Only 250.
    Sent an email. Clearly by their rules since the stream shut off and 2nd half bets include OT, it should be a no action regardless of the score.
    I knew this sim stuff would be a mess.

    Been using the site for 8 years, Legend 3 on there. Hopefully they just change it to follow the rules they posted given my status.

    Sounds like a cant win situation.

    A: they keep your money

    B: they give you back your money because they know you’ll give it back to them anyways.

    Are you sure the stream was not reestablished? This happened to someone a couple of weeks ago only to find out that the game actually finished.

    Yeah. Stream was cut due to incorrect placement of the ball after the interception. Chat had people saying all sides of spread and ml were paid as well as over.
