    When books cancel winning plays do they cancel all the losers too?

    I was noticing how certain books cancel winning wagers due to 'suspicious betting patterns' or bad lines, etc..

    When this happens, along with cancelling all of those who take advantage of the 'bad lines', do they cancel and refund all of the losing bets as well?

    They should. If they don't, the book is cheating.

    Posters need to start posting when they have a winning wager canceled at a certain book as to see if any other posters who were on the other side had their wagers cancelled. This way we can find out which if any books are practicing this!!!!! Plus it will allow those on the losing end to contact the book and recoup their losses.

    Ive seen books cancel bets for errors, and the good ones should also cancel the losses with the wins

    My experience is that 95% of all books only cancel the winning wagers but never the losing. Thatīs part of their buiseness.
