    It is the newest legal Jersey book PointsBet, so the good publicity cannot hurt.

    I recall a game a few years back between SEAHAWKS VS PACKERS a bad call was made for a touchdown (which was clearly not caught) and some bookmakers refunded the bet

    They just opened. They probably had no handle and wanted publicity.

    Exactly. If they were take a 30K hit or something they never would've offered.

    Will come back to put them out even worse. The "good guy" technique will be forgotten on next wager and the can of worms they opened will remain full and overflowing.

    Gamblers who bet on it lost , books are thinking , we'll give it back and get even more of their hard earned cash . What's the odds they don't lose it again ? Absolutely Zero
    Brilliant call long term to give it back .

    Fully expect a class action lawsuit to be filed against the NFL in the next 24 hours as a result of people claiming losses from bad call in Rams-Saints game. Don’t know how convincing the claims will be, but have no doubt they will be made.

    Customer service is the best, and most affordable, advertising sometimes. Word of mouth can spread like wildfire.

    Someone call Bookmaker or Pinnacle and see if they are getting a refund. I can't because I won, but if you lost you should do it.

    Great precedent to set

    All the new bettors will always expect this on a missed call now

    Terrific

    I lost 2k on Saints ml from live betting. No refund from bookmaker. No big time book would ever do that. I also had Saints +10.5 and ML last year in playoffs. The curse is real

    I have told you monkeys a thousand times why do all these bad calls always favor the books? You ever see one of these bad calls go to the Public in a big bet game?

    Bet365 refunded me close to 3k for this game. I remember it like it was yesterday.

    Who came up with this ridiculous idea.....Albert Brooks?

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrCehxKPJ0s

    BTW, both actors in this classic scene have very famous siblings who recently died. Albert Brooks is brother of Bob Einstein (Super Dave Osborn, and Funkhouser on 'Curb') and Frank Marshall is brother of Penny Marshall.

    I heard they took 200 wagers on the saints ML and spread and a total of $20k wagered. They are giving $1000 free bets to new players so $20k on one game is just part of their very large promotional budget.

    what about the missed facemark that would kept the rams previous drive alive that could have put them up 24-17? people need to let this shit go to rest.. NOLA had every chance to win that game and blew a plethora of spots and are sitting here and firing up the excuse train... have a little pride why won't ya.
