    Need Help!!!! Bovada is trying to screw me

    Hey guys. I really need someone's help here. I placed a live bet for over 1.5 goals in the Atletico vs Valencia game about 30 seconds before Garcia scored in the 89 minute. Bovada accepted my bet at +450 odds, so I thought I had won a nice payout. But then I checked my account and saw that Bovada had canceled my bet. I called and disputed with them but they said that my bet was placed too late and the goal had already been scored, which is bull. So, is there anywhere that I can check for when the goal was scored in real world time? I placed my bet at 5:12:51 pm according to bovadas records. I really feel Bovada is trying to screw me over here. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

    your probably right and i would just keep arguing your case til they cash it,,,if it was too late and the goal was already scored the market shouldnt have been available ....you actually bet on a game that had a minute remaining?

    I hate it when something like this happens!It's the reason I gave up live betting.Since the goal was scored only seconds after you placed the bet I don't know what you can do about it.

    Tell them that the market was opened, you placed bet and they accepted it. And of conversation. Tell them you were lucky and that goals was scored just some second later.
    Tell them you did not break any rule,...

    They did something similar to me a few years ago. Even with screenshot proof they kept arguing with me. After a few weeks they graded the bet as cancelled. Better than a loss but I should have won. F that book

    I bet this is what happened...

    You placed your bet on time, but the bet option was open until after the goal was scored and they cancelled all wagers on that bet.
