    How long for a baseball game to be official

    I’m asking about the Tampa Cubs game, should it be a win for a bet on Tampa, that’s Vegas rules 5 innings or does each place have different rules these days

    Had a parlay pretty nice payout. They gave me a void that knocked the payout down tremendously

    I’m aware of that I read the rules. Most places still have 5 innings or not really? I know fan duel has 5 innings.

    Well my advice is if they grade your bet different than their rules you need to contact them and find out what happened. Or send a PM to LT Profits to get involved. He bets tons on MLB games every year.

    Moneyline should be graded a win for sure.

    Edit: I should have clicked Bookmaker link. Weird. Never heard of anyone having that rule for ML.

    They gave me a push/void and lowered payout in the parlay, but rule they state has to be 8 innings. I been playing a long time and a baseball game is official after 4.5 - 5 innings.

    Yeah, looks like that's what their rule says. Goes against everything I always knew. Pretty sure most books still grade ML when game is official.

    Several offshores changed their baseball rules two seasons ago, but I believe most (all?) apart from Bookmaker have returned to the older rules with listed pitchers and 4.5/5 for action.

    just like in tennis lines. Some books grade official after 1 set vs others that match has to be fully completed

    In theory you will get a lucky break half the time when your side is behind after 5 and you get your money back.

    I know it is not possible but it Would be nice to have one set of rules for everybody.

    How consistent in Las Vegas these days? Is there anybody there with this rule?

    Offshore used to proclaim we abide by Vegas rules!
