They sent me my balance, but I had a future wager on the Superbowl

AFC -175 ($875 risk to win $500). (made a few weeks ago)

They paid me back the $875, however I feel a little cheated since the line is now much higher (just checked -260/+220 at Oly)

Should I try to get something for this wager or am I just whislting in the wind (sol).

Thanks guys

That is complete bullshit. Name the book, so nobody else has to put up with that garbage. You definitely got screwed, and should still have your wager on the books at that price.

that bet should absolutely STAY!

otherwise, a book could kick people out when they are about to cash in on a future ticket!

kicked out for what?

please name the book....

That's insane having your wager refunded. Even BetOnSports and Jaguar were decent enough to keep futures active and paid me them later.

I am trying to get in contact with the book (talked with them earlier today and thought we had worked something out, but apparently not).



I will name the book after I get in touch with them again.

thanks fellas,, was hoping some math wiz could figure out the value of my futures play.

My opinion, futures should always be honored.

Judge, I don't think it is just your opinion, I think it is FACT!

Still curious as to why "you got kicked out"

(regardless, future should stay unless you were scamming)

If you are ever worried about getting booted from a book for being sharp, play futures through friends who won't worry a book.

yes it is. Don't think you can really help but ...

Sent u a PM there.

Talked to one of the "owners" he said they knew the line had moved substantially, but they didn't want to pay me out again after the Superbowl.

Sharp: Total Deposit there $1700 total cash out $6400 ($4700), thats less than $5000.

I offered to lower my prop/ML limits to $100 each, but they said they no longer wanted my action. NIce on the phone, said maybe we could do something again (huh).

Correct thing (imo) since they are already showing you the door is ask you which YOU would prefer? Since it is the last interaction you will have with said book I would think they would want you to go out as happy as possible. Many players being shown the door may not want to leave money in said book. Or maybe they do? I think the decent thing is to let the player decide.

SOooooo many bullshit operations that are not really books. Cancelling future bets that look like a winner, now thats crooked. I'll bet you $10,000 to your dollar that if you had a future bet that looked like a loser, this s-h-i-t book would have said we will send you the money if it wins.

If they BOOKED the bet, then they need to HONOR the bet, period, regardless of them throwing you out...
