Question about Bookies!!

Not that I'm aware of without sending an email well in advance before play starts. Even then it's still not a guarantee.

No bookmaker will cancel your bet once you have placed it unless its a error.
Doxxbet do allow you to cancel your bet if they are sitting on it why they look at the odds on Betfair. But if they take it then you cant cancel it.

Not true. Bets can be canceled before game time at many places.

I have used CW in the past (not trying to tout them) and they have canceled EVERY bet I have asked them to, even when a line moved. So I do believe places will cancel wagers once placed but not after the event started...

When i say they wont cancel your bets i mean they wont cancel your bets and give you the full amount back you have staked. Your talking about bookies who buy back your bets at way below your stake like Gamebookers, Partybets and Extrabet.

My experience with this is that they never give you no where near the amount you placed even if the odds shorten before kick off. This is giving the bookies money.

If they allowed you to cancel bets then you would have people asking them to void their bets everytime odds go against them.

This is my 100th post.

As long as the line doesn't move.

There was a book that would let you switch teams in the 2nd half. ChangeABet It would be funny if they didn't stiff players.

Talk about a blast from the past there Bill. I remember that book.
