    Did I get screwed?
    Have a sports betting account at Galaxy.(4galaxysports.com) They had Texas +115 vs. Yankees. My other spot had Yankees +150. Looked like middle opportunity, but I know bad line bets are cancelled. Called and bet Yankees $500 at +150 after told it was correct line. Then called Galaxy, which uses Diamond site and spoke to a clerk. Asked If Texas +115 was correct line. She said yes. I asked her to speak to her supervisor and make sure because other site had different line and I didn't want their to be a problem. Thirty seconds later she came back and assured me Texas +115 was the correct line. So I bet $500 Texas +115. Remember I called and bet on phone instead of internet and insisted clerk speak to supervisor. Later I got online and found bet was cancelled. Tried to cancel my other wager on Yankees, but was refused. So I ate the bet and gambled and lost$500. Have spoke to several experienced bettors and they seem to think Galaxy should have honored the bet because I called and had clerk speak to supervisor to make sure line was right. How was I supposed to know which line was correct? Have only two outs. Would recommend not betting with Galaxy-Diamond. What's to stop them from doing this on football game that moves several points? Would like opinions from experienced bettors. Thank you, neophyte bettor.

    Don't bet into bad lines. Clerks are stupid.

      Bookmaker brand, it sucks. Regardless of the reating, anything that has to do with Bookmaker/DSI/Cris sucks.
