Found extra money in my sportsbook account this afternoon

Sometimes they throw a couple of bucks in your account. Maybe that's what happened though $24 seems like an odd amount. You can always ask them.

I have had stuff like that happen. There are different reasons.

Yes..usually a result of drunken log-in the day before, happens all the time.

If in doubt, call them

Yes sportsbooks do this for me frequently when I tell them a tooth fell out and I put it under my pillow.

Like my betfair account. I emptied it a year ago when I stopped horse racing.

But now I got an email from betfair telling me that I have 26 dollars in my account and if I don't use it in 1 year they'll charge a 5 dollar fee on it.

So I took the money out asap.

I think it might be for a friend invitation but still misteriuos. Of course maybe I am dumb and don't know where do I keep my money.

I play mainly with pinny, but anyways last night i won a props bet at Sportsbook.com and my account went up to 179$. Everything made sense, but anyway today I logged on and found my account at 203$...randomly 24 dollars higher. Checked for a bonus and there wasn't one. Has anyone had this happen? I'm half wondering if the book did it on purpose so as to call me out later for not reporting it...should I report it? Thanks yall

not being a jerk, but was your wager $24 to win $179? and you forgot the $24 bet being put back in your account

I'd be worried if there was LESS money in my Sportsbook.com account--they have a history of confiscating funds.
