I just watched When We Were Kings. I bet $100 on Ali when the movie started. Heritage canceled it using the same logic

Which books have not decided or have it ungraded?
As far as I know all major offshores graded the event apart from Heritage.
Did you know the third fight on the card was actually fought first?
First three fight times were stuffed up as well as the broadcaster editing some parts.

Many times in the past on various MMA/UFC events the fight orders are changed,,,,,did not know of this happening in this case.
Any idea when the exact time the fights actually took place?

Personally from what I can work out the event started at the right time, 6.00pm PST.
For voided bets placed before that time Heritage have been asked if they have any reason to suspect any fight started prior to 6pm PST

Not yet. And they believe they are correct based on info they received.
They are investigating their information source though.

PFL MMA confirmed what CanuckG reported. That Night 7 of the PFL Challenger series was fought and taped on 25th March, on the same day as Night 6.
Participants were asked to sign NDAs to keep results quiet.
PFL say this is the first time they have done that and did not anticipate the betting problem it could cause.
PFL say they are aware to not let it happen again.

Yeah, the winners were definitely leaked. I know a few people who got bets down at legal books and aren't exactly upset that the tickets were cancelled.

Did your book void the winners? If so, that's just wrong.

Just as the US is starting to accept sports betting as a legal activity we see this crap. Just have it live, why even bother with the whole taping thing? Doubt that books will even take wagers on PFL now.

That's not fair at all. All bets should be voided.

Please note, these were various shops, not the SAME shop.............didn't mean to imply that one shop graded the losers and not the winners.
Having said that, should have been one ruling for all.

yeah it sucks when books have this in their rules, yet still haven't cancelled losers
"If for any reason, a bet is inadvertently accepted after an event or match has started, the selection(s) affected will be made void and stakes will be refunded."
so i guess we are to assume that they didn't "inadvertently" accept bets on a fraud, they did so intentionally

Yeah it's about to get messy by the looks.
From what I know of Bookmaker I would guess they will void everything.
@Fishhead What other books do you still need to void?

BOOKMAKER.....Mercy. Please. I just checked and they have 20c bases lines w NO LISTED pitchers. This book should be downgraded a rating or two.
The fight people said they did not anticipate problems w betting by recording a day early.
So who is stupider, the fight people or the bettors who thought they would get away with it?
