Do you always make screenshot of your bet?

Hareeba! · 05-20-10, 05:23 AM

it's not possible at all books as the bet disappears once it is accepted ... you have to go to your account / pending bets ... the extra time involved rarely suits me

good idea but have never done this

its good idea to have a screenie for each bet you take but not applicable all the time

Pretty good idea but something I have never done.

I do almost every time. Save to desktop, and drag to trash once graded properly. Creatures of habit...

only of my longshot golf props where the payoff is 250-1 or higher

I do on bets I am worried about say pitcher changes and stuff of that nature, although it is probably pointless because the book will just claim that you photo shopped the screen shot.

That's a great habit. I have done it, but it's not yet a habit.

I think there is a way or 2 to find out if the picture is real or not. Not sure how much it costs but if the bet/payout is big enough and you have trouble then maybe worth it.

I just save my tickets in a spreadsheet, that way I can dispute the ticket number if I need to.

save the planet!
use a free tool such as screenhunter

It's definitely a great practice to, you can even install the SBR Screenshot Toolbar if you'd like.

I have never done this. With the books I play at, I never should have a problem! 10 years now and never had this happen to me.

flyingillini · 05-20-10, 10:09 PM

I did when I was playing at the books from the SBR Bracket tournament where I had funds in. I don't at Heritage though, I feel as safe as Santa Barbara Bank & Trust with them. By the way, that is where I do my banking, guey.

Its pointless, books never screw their customers.

If I can click a button to confirm a bet, I can click a button to take a shot.

If a bet gets lost you have no case without a ticket.

never have, never will

Rollins08 · 05-21-10, 06:19 AM

i never have and i've never had an issue. I only use the top books, no reason no go anyplace else.

Always. Install a screengrabber (eg screenprint32) and just hit the 'Print Screen' key (very top very right of the keyboard). I use it for everyting - t&Cs, conversations with live chat, etc. Insurance that costs nothing.

Powderguy · 05-21-10, 07:32 AM

I have not used this, I feel I shouldn't have to playing at top notch books.
