SportsInteraction is giving a line for Portland +13 which I think they meant to be -13.
I just put my roll on this, can they take this back after the fact?

Yes. And they can boot you for taking a shot at them as well.

What do you mean by "taking a shot at them"?

not to mention how silly of you to post on the forum about it, even if there was a slight chance they might not notice, now you lost it, most books have representatives that visit this forum

Betting on a line which is an "obvious error".

Not only can they, they most definitely will take it back if they havent already done it.

If someone gives you $100 then realizes after the fact that they gave you the $100 instead of $1, is that stealing?

You can try and rationalize but their not gonna pay you, I guarantee it. I used to warn a book all the time when they put up the wrong lines, until they put one up and tried to stiff me, I aint warning them no more, but I have exploited bad lines before just to see if they would pay me, it would be for $5 each time and they did pay, just dont think you will with that bad of a line.

If you accidentally made a bet for $100 instead of $1, they damn sure wouldn't give it back.
And if they can void a bet due to an error on their end, then what is stopping them from saying , oops that live line was supposed to be -3.5 instead of -3, if they were to lose their ass on a bet?

If I ask someone to borrow $1...they accidently hand me $100...I would hand it back to them or ideally if I see it's a $100 bill prior to it hitting my hand I don't ever take it...

Lets get real now, youre trying to act as if your some standup guy but we all know if anyone handed you $100 you'd be depositing that on 5dimes instantly where you try to chase you buried fukk

If someone left a bag of behind, and you noticed that it had a million dollars in it, would you chase after them or keep it?

Never seen so many gamblers with such great morals in dealings with Sportsbooks
Most of these guys would steal from their own mother
OP, next time you see a bad line, don't hesitate to take another shot.
we are here to make money

Not stealing. He simply chose an option that the book made available to him. They were unable to enter a simple number into a program, knowing that there was a large amount of money on the line. Their bad. Lesson learned. Go get 'em next time.
In the real world their are no do overs. Companies pay for the actions of their employees all the time. It's just one of those things.
