Just made $20 on a very bad line

[Arnold]

I saw today at Pinnacle the over/under parlay line for Raptors/Warriors game was at 22.5 (should have been 222). At first I thought I should take it, but then I tried to stay within reality and accept the fact, that they will simply cancel my bet sooner or later. So I emailed them to notify about the mistake. 5 minutes later the line was corrected. 10 minutes later they gave me a $20 credit And that's not too bad for me, because I only wager $5 per bet.

PS. I know there was a similar thread from a few days ago about how someone notified a book about an obvious line error, but I searched for it and couldn't find it.

He says he only wagers $5 per bet, so $20 is a great deal for him!

agreed

You rarely find bad lines at Pinny but when you do and tell them about it, $20 is standard for them to give you. Yes it's only $20 but it's $20 more than what you get at most books and it's $20 for about 30 seconds work of firing off an email. Besides it's better than betting it and being deemed a shot taker when they inevitably cancel the bet.

I would have bet my entire bankroll then sent em the email...nothing to really lose there...if they cancel you get your money back...if they honor you score big

You lose $20 because they're not "rewarding" your e-mail after you just made a cheap play.

Honest person: +$20
Fool who thinks he's just won the lottery: +$0

it doesnt matter if you drive someone away...there are 100 more sportsbooks out there!

BTW what sportsbook did you manage? was it wewentbrokebecauseourmanagersucked.com

[Stumpage]

Arnold made the right move here. Congrats....If you try to f**k with a book like Pinnacle or some of the higher tier ones, all in the remote hope that you might get this one by them, well, then basically you're just a clueless idiot.....

[BuddyBear]

umm...if you guys saw a $20 bill on the street wouldn't you pick it up?

Anyway, the other day i notified a book that a match had started and they still had the line almost an hour into it and I got nothing

Whatever. You must be a billionaire that wipes his ass with $100 bills.

Besides it's better than betting it and being deemed a shot taker when they inevitably cancel the bet.

The worst thing would be to parlay it, win it, and then get your parlay canceled in the end. I don't think anyone likes to hear "you've won!", followed by "we were just kidding!".

what do you think they are going to check over all your open bets and make sure your not betting on that line? they got biggger fish to fry

Why not? I'm sure they canceled everyone's parlay who took the over 22.5. It's not like they manually have to go through a big pile of papers to find who bet this. When I emailed them, I didn't even give them my account#. They credited my account just by having my email+name.

[SSLP]

Against all Odds or John Candy however you decide.

PEOPLE like you is why sportsbooks treat fair , smart players like they do sometimes.

I really dont think your in the right forum here I think you should be in some silly how to beat the house cheating book.

Please dont adress me again , your a joke.

[Stumpage]

I didnt say there were a 100 more QUALITY sportsbooks out there...

Oh, now I get it...If Pinnacle drives you out, just take your funds to one of the 100 NON-quality sportbooks out there.....

Makes perfect sense to me.....

what i think is you could have bet and still got the $20 for being honest....either way good job boss

[BurtRapp]

Not a billionaire. What I do know is that why bother gambling if the amount bet doesn't flutter your heart or at least get some kind of juices flowing?? I know that there is no human over 18 that bets 5.00 and feels that rush we get from gambling. Why bother? Play lotto or something. No disrespect to you, your probably a cool dude but it's just a fact.

[AgainstAllOdds]

Makes perfect sense to me.....

So I guess if pinnacle drives you out...you will never find another quality sportbook....everyone better get to pinnacle right now because they are the only quality sportsbook out there!

To each his own maybe he just plays for fun and to test his accuracy .

If thats the case I envy him
