    Bookmaker...weird issue today..you be the judge

    Not going to complain just yet...here is the situation. I placed a bet on the pirates today at 7:30p. The play was on the bored not knowing it was a 7:05 game. My receipt also says wager placed at 7:30p. I then checked espn and it was already 3-0 in the third?? What do you make of this. I know if I had won it would not have been valid

    Past-post should be an auto-cancel in my mind.

    But... I've heard mods/former mods on this site and others argue that since its a player taking a shot, books can hang lines after the fact and basically free-roll you. There was a heritage complaint about this, but he took the winning side and obviously was a shot taker, same concept though.

    It was in the regular sportsbook and not in live betting?

    Yes regular book. I don't do live betting in baseball. Also pretty sure they wouldn't have the pirates game live anyhow. Being down 3-0 and Pitt the favorite lol

    Bookmaker has every game live and I was following it, so yea they did. At 3-0 Padres in the 3rd, I think it was Pitt +250. Regardless, it's definitely an interesting case. Would have to think they'd void all wagers at 7:10 immediately after realizing it was up too long. Wouldn't think bookmaker is one to take shots at players but who knows.

    Ya you could be right about them having it live bet. I did save the snap shot and have Pitt being -160 at 7:30 and start game 7:05
