    5dimes didnt refund me my bet, mods help.

    Overseas Elite v Eberlein Drive in The Basketball Tournament. was on Friday night. they set the over under at 154.5 .. when the first team to 70 wins. so i took Overseas Elite o 79.5 for team total. so clearly this was a bad line. they refused to listen to me, saying they dont go by twitter for information. not sure if i can post twitter accounts on here. but Overseas Elites page kept saying first to 70 wins. also kept counting down how many more points until 70 points for their 2 million dollar prize. game ended 70-58.

    would appreciate some insight or where i have to post this to help SBR fefund me

    We've reached the Elam Ending. @overseaselite leads @EberleinDrive 63-54. First team to 70 goes home with TWO MILLION DOLLARS. #TBT2018

    such a joke

    Why would you choose to take a total over 70?

    Or did you only find this out after the game?



    You can submit an SBR sportsbook complaint form here.

    You probably only spoke to first line CS.

    It must have been a pretty obscure match if they didn't get slammed by people betting that under.

    I'd try sending an email asking for a manager's attention to it. But maybe try to find a more official reference to the match rules than that twitter feed. Or something to at least confirm it.

    did you bet the line before the game started? the elam ending starts with the first dead ball after the 4 minute mark with the highest scoring team needing 7 more points to win. The score was 63-54 thus the first team to 70 points wins.

    That's not how it works. The Elam ending.


    f. Elam Ending Rules – At the first stoppage at or under 4:00 of the 4th quarter, the game clock stops and timed play ends. At this juncture, a target score shall be set, equal to the leading team's score plus seven (7). After returning from the media timeout, play shall resume without a game clock but with the shot clock, until one team matches or exceeds the target score.
    i. Example: Team A leads Team B 70-63 at the first stoppage under 4:00. The game clock is turned off while the shot clock remains on. The target score is set to 77. The first team that reaches 77 wins the game.

    Have been articles all over Internet calling for NBA and College to do this same ending to speed up games in such things as blowouts

    Game could end At 47 or 107. The line is fair.

    Once the Elam ending is triggered, first stoppage under 4 minutes left, then the total 7 more than team leading is the points needed to win.

    So Twitter saying first to 70 wins is because Elam ending triggered at leading team being at 63

    When I first read this I thought you made this bet on purpose just to show that 5 Dimes wouldnt refund a loss on a clear bad line.
