Are there any books that will let you change or cancel a bet after entry should you get second thoughts? Before gametime of course. 5dimes used to allow you to do it once only.

Changing a Bet after entry

Bet365 offers 100% cashout of bets if the odds have not changed. Or partial cashout close to real value if they have changed.

As far as asking... yeah if you are real nice and lucky with the rep, they will do it sometimes. But so many degen make up stories and demand it just due to odds going against them post bet, it's not very common for books to do that any more.

Bookmaker definitely won't do it. I made a bet on an MLB player prop. Immediately after placing the wager I noticed they had the player listed as playing for the wrong team. Within two minutes I contacted customer service via chat to ask if they would cancel the wager, just to avoid any confusion upon grading. They refused, citing their policy of never canceling wagers.
[They eventually canceled the wager about an hour later after they realized their mistake. But my point is that they have a strict policy to never cancel wagers, even if you contact them immediately after placing it.]

They shouldn't. Bettors would misuse this like there's no tomorrow if they did. If you do bet on something by mistake, just take it on the chin and bet the other side for a small loss, or let it ride if you feel that's a better option.

I remember years ago I tried this at 5 dimes they wouldnt let me do it. The option they gave me was to instead put the bet on the other team, I thought about it and said thats ok, remember that one because chris paul hit game winning shot to beat the t-wolves

Just like I think books should take it on the chin when they have made a mistake (and by that I mean being off in their odds compiling, not obvious bad lines). And while some do, many don't, so there's a double standard there from books.

wager web did it for me. i contacted them right after. it was days before the event and right after i realized i hit the wrong team and hit too quick thru the ticket. only time and example i have to share. i always assumed books would never do it.

some books will claim it's a "one-time courtesy"... i've had betonline cancel a few over the years where i hit the wrong side and didn't want to lose the juice offsetting it... last time i tried they said no and it cost me $150 Originally Posted by pologq

Sportsbetting, BOL's sister book, allowed me to do this about a week ago. I bet a first half line thinking it was for full game. I immediately contacted them and to my surprise and relief they canceled it for me. Nice gesture on their part. Originally Posted by milwaukee mike

I never thought of trying to cancel. I make plenty of errors, always bet 2x on other side and eat the juice.

They act like it is the biggest favor of ALL TIME----even when lines don't move and their mobile platform sucks... misclicks happen-with zero or line movement against you-it should be a simple favor or click of a button....

BOL did it for me as a one time courtesy. Don't think any book would put up with it more than once or twice.
