    No wonder gamblers lose long term. Half of them don’t even know that they are betting on! Don’t know or don’t understand!

      Yes, but this guy knew what he was betting on, that was clear from bet offered. It was wording of ticket after bet was placed that caused mass hysteria.

        I’m talking about the bozos that voted that BOL graded the wager correctly.

              "the wording of the prop indicates that the attempt must be successful to be graded as yes." ?

              Out of your ass?
              Here is the full bet:

              Side 1: Conversion +325
              Side 2: No Conversion/No Attempt -400

              Where does Side 1 NOT indicate it must be successful? By definition, it means successful. If you ever watched football for 5 seconds, you would know it must be successful for the PAT to be converted.

                Maybe his first post should be edited with the correct wording from Post 12 (with a notation it was edited) so the correct bet wording can be shown on the first page than having people search down.

                I'm giving the benefit of the doubt and assuming some people are reading the wording of the first post and voting on that without knowing the actual wording of the bet.

                  BetOnline has confirmed the player's ticket should be a winner. The prop will be worded differently in the future. His money should be in his account shortly.

                      good to hear

                      they've changed wording in the past, once after a 0-yard fumble recovery for td... then they changed wording to "will there be a 0 or 1 yd td"

                      no idea why they should have to change the wording on this one, it was always pretty clear

                            has the wording changed? Is the word successful new? If yes I thought it was clear before and this is EVEN clearer.

                              I would still like to see an "or" where the "/" is, because as of now, if someone bets the No option, Ticket details will read same way as Post 1 and this could start all over again.

                                The wording of the No choice is the same as last week. Don't know if the yes is the same, but I think it is.

                                  Its pretty damm clear as is. I honestly cant see how anyone could look at this wager and think if there is an unsuccessful attempt, that "succesful 2pt conversion" is the winner.

                                    I think the problem is the OP and other people were trying to remember the prop's wording off memory since the actual prop bet was no longer on display to give the exact wording. Looking at the wording of the prop for the Indy/Pats game, I know the "No" bet wording is the same as the wording on the Sunday games and if you were to put a gun to my head, I would say the "Yes" wording is also the same (but I'm not as confident on that as the "No" wording).

                                      Fukk all those prop bets. 99% of them are sucker bets.

                                        If you dabble in fantasy sports or at least follow it, the props relating to player/team stats can be better than the sides and total bets.

                                                    Like I told Mr. "poo-poo georgio" about 8 times. If they had the word successful in there, then it would be crystal clear.

                                                    Now it is.

                                                      We don't know if successful was in the original prop since it was never screenshot. You've been advocating that it was a losing bet and he should just a simple refund for the "ambiguity" rather than using reading comprehension and saying he should actually get paid. I had been advocating the whole time he won and should get paid and BetOnline agreed. Just take your L and move on.

                                                          I meant agreed after seeing what actual bet was (the now world famous Post #12).

                                                                      I am guessing BOL added qualifier (again, horribly) because some bettors were claiming Push if no attempt.

                                                                        their prop says

                                                                        successful 2 point conversion?
                                                                        YES +230
                                                                        NO -250

                                                                        and they are trying to argue that the bet only has action if there is an attempt? that's ridiculous and has never been the case at any book
