    I just got a refund.

    Still angry since it was obviously a winner, but I'll take it

    Refund feels like a cop out due to blow back from all the complaints that were sure to be pouring in.

    Obviously no on will be upset with a refund and getting their money back.

    Don't just accept a refund, an SBR mod just told you how the wager should be graded.

    Fill out the form and let the matter be taken further.

    what will filling out the form accomplish though? I clicked the form link and it took me to a sbr complaint form so im not sure how filling that out will change anything but let me know bc i haven't filled out a form before.

    A representative of this site should inquire into the complaint and contact the sportsbook to look for an acceptable resolution.

    A mod in LT has already made his opinion know, that the bet should be graded as a winner.

    So the only acceptable resolution in SBR's mind should be grading the bet a winner, or else they admit LT was wrong.

    It's quite funny how some people are content with a refund.


    You guys got cheated.

    The fact they refunded is a bit telling. They knew they lost the bet. And instead of having to pay out, they just refunded the bets and guys are happier than a fly on shit

    I'd be happy too that I got a refund as I've been stiffed before and it's no fun but I'd press more. They're not a necessary out, their limits are ridiculous and they pull shit like this.

    Use this as an experience to stand up for yourself and grow a set. Odds are nothing changes but they need to know guys aren't always going to lay down.

    Cannot believe people are content with a refund. Hard enough to beat the books and the ridiculous juice you would have been paying on this wager without being cheated out of a winner like this.

    Guys, before flying off the handle, I did also say that Bovada's INTENT was probably to include Internationals only by putting out such a low total of 10, but it was their own fault for including the word Club in the prop.

    I COULD see though them refunding this as a "bad line", just like books do for bad lines on regular spreads/totals. Because if their real intention as to include Club, they would have set the total in the 20-25 range that was being bantered around all over the place.

    So with that mindset, refund seems appropriate.

As I said back in Post #103, "I could give them the benefit of the doubt that their INTENTION was Internationals only and that's why the line as set so low at 10..." So I would actually buy the "bad line" theory here.

    But of course, there is probably nothing wrong with taking a shot with Complaint Form if you choose to.

    Weaksauce, you contradict yourself.

    EVERYONE that had the Over graded as a loss should file Complaint Form, that explanation from Bovada makes no sense when prop clearly stated it included club games.

    Basically you ran your mouth off LT and forgot SBR is really just water carriers for the books these days.

    Everyone knows it should be graded as a win.

    Where is the contradiction?

    It did and the bet was a winner based on the wording of the prop.

    But when Bovada refunded the bets based on "lack of explicit wager details", is also became more apparent to me anyway that they only intended to include Internationals

    Based on their reasoning, the word "Club" should not have been part of the prop, which changes everything because then the 10 no longer looks out of whack.

    Do you see what I am saying? Bovada could invoke the "bad line" clause here and it would be hard to argue against it. It appears I was getting worked up earlier in the thread over a bad line to begin with. (i.e., bad line assuming Club games included)

    To put it another way, the wording of the prop and the number they put out did not correlate, which in many ways is the definition of a bad line.
