Hi RonPaul,

We can't edit the ticket but we'll look into why you can't add more to it since the limit hasn't been circumvented.

This post will serve as you risking the remainder of the desired points. I've debited your sportsbook balance 150 SBRpoints.

Lou, the way it does it is that the maximum is 100 points, to risk or to win.

If you want to bet the max 250 to win back 100, you have to bet to win, not to risk.

RonPaul selected risk, and that meant he was risking 100, and he was maxed out.

I have made this mistake in the past, and I didn't go to anyone to fix it. I just learned my lesson for next time.

I had the same problem last summer with the World Cup props. It would only let me bet 100 points even with the -500 favs.

With favorites, bet to win.

With underdogs, do the option of risking.

If you want to be able to get in a limit bet in, that is.

Everything listed under Props is limited to 100 points risk regardless of line.

I had no idea you could risk more than 100 by selecting "to win" instead of "to risk" - I just assumed the max bet was 100 regardless. I will take note of this for the future.

Lou, I also bet 100 to win 40 on this same prop (Connecticut Senate race on the Democrats -250). If you are willing to debit me another 150 to win 60, I will certainly take the bet.

You are wrong.

Ticket#:431859

TNT
WHO WILL WIN 2010 CONNECTICUT SENATE RACE?
[1] DEMOCRATS -250

250.00 / 100.00

Note that I risked 250 to win 100.

The limit was 100, so I bet to win 100, instead of risking 100.

I ask RandyMoss during the World Cup and he said the props have a max of 100 points risk. Wal66 can verify.

yisman · 11-01-10, 05:57 PM

His name is Richard Moss, and whether he told you that or not, I don't know.

The fact is, more than 100 can be risked on favorites.
