Okay fellas here's what happened...I play on bookmaker and i noticed they had the san deigo st. game line at -13.5 and the money line at -110. Immediatly i notice this error (on their part) and jump all over the moneyline. This was a guaranted winner. I threw a single bet on and multiple parlays. I had was going out and now when I come back I check the account and they return the money to my account...when i try to go on live chat, it wont even come up....scum bags shut down their live chat....why did i know this was going to happen? :ohno:

Funny that you call them the scum bags when you're the idiot that tried pulling a fast one on them. Did you really expect the bet to stand?

Of course. what did you expect? you shouldn't do this. all it does is piss the books off for you trying to rob them, especially a reputable book such as bookmaker

I know he was wrong and all but what does it matter if the book gets pissed. If they would have paid him who cares. I used to use a book years ago when Carmelo was at Cuse and they had a prop team to score first. Well for some reason their clock was about 1-2 minutes behind the real time. I used to sit on the phone with like 4 friends and we would watch the 7 oclock espn games every day of the week and just yell out who scored first and hit it for 250 each time. It was great and I got paid on every play. Once they realized that we were all hitting 100% they got rid of the prop. Anyway they might have been mad but who gives a shit I got paid

ha, why only 250? thats like saying you know all of the winning lottery numbers but you only played some of them for the smaller payout

lol, pretty funny.

i wouldn't call you a scum bag for what you did, but i certainly hope you didn't expect an obvious error to stand.

Hey, if a book wants to post -13.5 for San Diego St, who am I to argue? If it's a legitimate typo, especially if it's caught BEFORE the game, I can understand fixing it and canceling the bet.

But I wouldn't call the book scumbags - nor would I call World-Mine an idiot, either. The issue fixed itself, as for as I can tell.

Now, for a bad line to go unchallenged up to game time, well, that's their play, isn't it? Maybe the book knows something that Vegas doesn't? Just sayin.

why does it even matter. everyone here is talking about the bookmaker getting pissed and all that shit. WHO CARES. they screwed up by making that line available to bet. SO THEY SHOULD COUNT THE BETS MADE AND SUFFER FROM BEING STUPID AND MAKING THAT MISTAKE. we shouldnt be penalized for it.:aktion033
