    Rugby 3-way Line? Is Heritage trying to pull a fast one on me?
    Hello folks,

    The reason I'm posting is because I think my sportsbook is jiving me in this particular instance. Yesterday, I nabbed the Sydney Roosters at +6.5 and +170 ML over the Cronulla Sharks. The score ended up 14-14, ending in a draw. As you know, a draw in rugby is far and in between. I thought I made a decent profit by winning the spread wager and getting my ML wager canceled. However, this morning I log into my account and the +170 ML wager was graded as a Loss. I called in to find out whats the haps on the craps. They told me that it was a 3-way line and the Draw +1600 was the winning ticket. For the life of me, I cannot remember seeing a Draw line. It's not like soccer where a 3-way line is a given. I'm pretty sure some books don't even deal a draw line on rugby. If it ends in a draw, it's simply a push as it's so infrequent to matter much. What can a punter do in this situation? The Wagering Department assures me that it was a 3-way line but I tend to disagree. I'm not looking to recoup a losing bet. I'm fine with it being a loser if, in fact, a 3-way line was dealt. Is there any way to retroactively view the lines that were dealt at the time I placed my wager? I know it's a longshot, but how do I prove that my wager should have been a PUSH? Please advise. Thank you.

      I see the line here:

      Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks - Sydney Roosters
      CRO 1.50 (-133) DRAW 20.81 (+1040) SYD 2.61 (+130)

      Rugby and Soccer usually have 3-way lines which are strictly money lines.

      Spread lines are usually with a handicap or PK, so a push there give you your money back.

      Money Lines are outright, and a DRAW is a LOSS.

        Regardless of sports, when you see ML, it is sure for win only. For handicap lines, displayed like +0, or PK, or DNB, then draw results in no action.

          I've seen this new 3-way line trend in Rugby. Books hate pushes, because they make no money on them. This is on you to look fully at the offering.

            Heritage offers 3-way lines on Rugby. Saw it myself a few weeks ago. You just missed it man.

              Any sport/game that can end in a draw, Heritage has a draw bet up as well for all ML wagers
