    does it cost money to cancel a bet at matchbook?
    I put $350 on the Gators ML, but set the odds at -290.

    I've never tried changing the odds. This probably won't get matched.

    Do I have to wait till the game is over or what?

    By the way, http://www.sbrodds.com/ reacted immediately after I hit OK.

    cancel it and the bet disappears as if it would´ve never been there..if nothing was matched..doesn´t cost you anything.

        If you are a good customer anywhere, it should never cost you anything to cancel a wager..

            if it got matched, you cannot cancel, you can only bet the other side.

              I know, I don't want to cancel it now.

              Pretty good, I set my own line.

                  FYI fivey, Matchbook is sick in the fact that you can cancel a wager even if you dont have any funds in the account. Just say, your whole bankroll was $350 and you put that on the gators. Now you relized you made a mistake but cant cancel the wager(because matchbook is an exchange) you can now bet the other side without having any money on hand. Very nice thing to have sometimes.
