"The Baseball Grand Salami has no action if any game is rained out or final in less than 8½ innings."
But wasn't the Cubs/Mets game rained out? Also another rule on their site is:
"The following propositions will be graded NO ACTION if a game does not go 8½-9 innings and is an official completed game on that day: team statistical match-ups, player match-ups (including total bases), team total runs, H-R-E wagers, or any wager involving an over/under format."
So based on THIS rule, the grand salami should qualify as an over/under format bet, and should be graded as NO ACTION since the game was not officially completed on that day. I think it's pretty unfair to grade any total a win or a loss on an uncompleted game. I now wonder if they paid out those that bet the under, or cancelled the bet. Is anyone else familiar with the rules for grand salami on a game postponed in extra innings?
