    Soccer Question

    Hey fellas, need some help quick.
    I played a 2 team parlay last night on the 2 soccer games
    USA -270 \ Mexico -300
    The wager has been graded a loss because Mexico won in OT.
    I understand soccer wagers are graded based on regulation results but how could this be a loss. Worst case scenario this parlay should reduce in my opinion.
    All opinions on this matter are appreciated

    It's a losing bet because Mexico vs Honduras tied after 90mins of regulation time, the bet cannot revert because there is an option to bet on the Draw in those 90mins. If the Draw Option wasn't available then yeah you would have had your bet reverted in to a straight wager, but that's not the case.

    Please hit me up on a PM if you have anymore questions or requests, I'll be more than glad to assist.

    Be Cool

    Yep; if you would have played Mexico at "PK" then the Mexico bet would have pushed since the Draw hit for regulation time. Extra time doesn't count (but stoppage/injury time does).

    draw was not a betting option.
    You could only bet to win or lose.
    0-0 at the end of regulation is really a loss?
    I understand im at the mercy of the rules here but that just doesnt seem right.
    thanks for the quick responses though fellas

    LOL yeah but I play mostly overs, so hearing that sound on Futbol24 in the 6' minute of stoppage time is better than sex (well, it depends on who you're with LOL!)!

    It's three way betting. If you wanted Mexico pk for the game the line wouldn't have been -300 but probably close to -1000.

    I know the three way odds for Mexico win in regulation were -300. If there was no draw option offered at +350 this was a mistake by the book. What book did you bet this?

    This bet was with my local.
    I use one of those mirror sites that doesnt go anywhere.
    All wagers placed online but you settle up every week in person.
    Im 99% positive there was no draw line posted but regardless I'm screwed. I guess even if it wasnt there it was supposed to be and I do not have a screen shot saved.
    Thanks for all the responses fellas.

    well if you bet mexico pk at -300 its a bad line, but most likely it was the ml since that's the price everywhere

    It's a shot worth asking... if you didn't see the line you do have a valid complaint.

    wanna know what screwed me good?..I was on sports interaction after the first 90 before the ot halves

    I see a line pop up overtime goals under 1.5 if you risk 50 comeback total 75..So I figure no way they score two goals in ot after what I just witnessed..

    I lay 50 and make plans to bet the 75 comeback @ wimbleton after this what should be easy winner

    SOB Mexico comes to life El Chicharito or who ever scores right away..I could feel the flood gates open and the drama of extended periods had a premature ending as Mexico took over in the first 15 minute extra time

    I lost my bet

    The final is at it should have been..I am sure there were odds posted for final matchup

    I honestly feel right now if I bet Mexico the Us wins and vice versa

    when I bet I will bet one team to win the cup..no ml or spread fred gonna try and make some bread in la gran finale

    Saturday should be an eventful day culmulated with La Final de la Copa de Oro !!!!!!!!
