you picked the other side by accident. Either I'm going crazy or this has happened to me twice as a glitch in the last week. Last night at the half of Rams game I parlayed (or I thought I parlayed) the titans +8 and the Under. I spent the entire second half cheering for the Titans. To make matters worse, I did a little hedge late in the game thinking I wasn't gonna cover the spread portion by picking the Titans not to score anymore points. 3 personal fouls later they're inside the 10 and score a td. After the game I go look and see I somehow picked the Rams-8. Nothing any worse.

#4I have seen some of the live betting operators flip and flop the teams position on the betting page. In a rush and line change after line change they finally accept the bet and find out you have the other side. PROLINE+ in Ontario is one such site.Comment -

#5Betonline/Sportsbetting.ag does a sleazy trick on props where randomly they'll put the over line beneath the under line. When looking at all the lines it's very hard to pick up on when they switch this. They've gotten me twice on this angle, and CS didn't respond when I contacted them to change the bet.
It's very sleazy, but that's the world of offshore betting.Comment -

#6WillHill is notorious for switching over/under number display columns. On individual teams. Think your looking at the "over" column but nope. On that particular game they have under in the over position and vise versa. Try to build a parlay there, switching between positions drive u nuts.Comment -

#7Intertops does this too, switching over/under positions.
Books should want to make it easier, instead of harder, for their players read their site and give them action.Comment -

#11I agree with the other posters about how frustrating it is when sportsbooks switch the placement of their lines. It's especially bad when they do it with their live betting platform because we're already in a rush when doing live betting.
Last week, I thought I was getting a great live line on Bet105. I triple-checked before submitting my bet just to make sure my eyes weren't deceiving me. It wasn't until I received the bet confirmation that I saw it was for a first-half bet! I immediately went back to the live betting platform to see how I could have missed that.
It turns out I didn't miss anything! There was NOTHING that said it was a first-half bet. So irritating.Comment
