Will Pinnacle void my bet if the name of the team was misspelled ?

Pinnacle is the industry leader and I'd be shocked if they voided a bet for a typo when there's no ambiguity as to what team you are betting on. JMO, but I say fire away and don't sweat it.

I was wondering the same thing the other day when I noticed that one of the teams was listed as "handicap" or some other nonsense word. The rotation number was correct and the opponent was accurate too. Curious if they would honor a sizable winning bet on "handicap" when everyone involved with the situation would know that "handicap" was really, say for instance Louisville.

Haha check number 662 in college hoop. Buffalo is playing "American Pricing"

Does anyone knows if Pinny voids a bet if they had misspelled name of the team offered, for instance "LA Lkaers" instead of "LA Lakers". I send them a mail but no respond for 12 h. I want to take the bet again before the match starts if they'll void my bet. Any experience anyone ?

You'll be fine...This has happened a couple of times over my long history with Pinnacle, and it has never been a problem. The Greek will sometimes make the same error, and no problem there either. Any number of shit books would of course use any excuse not to pay, but that will not be the case here should you win your wager.....

No.

It looks i'm gonna lose that bet, now i wish they would void it

, but seriously settling bet as it was intended is the right way to go even if it doesn't suit me right now

it´s been like that for at least 3 American games now, they obviously have no idea and i doubt canything is getting canceled.

I did not know Buffalo was playing American U. I can see where Pinnacle messed up but I still would be reluctant to put myself in a position where I am holding a winning ticket that says "American Pricing" instead of American U. It usually does not end well when I am in these positions of hoping books or people will do the right thing.
