Periodically throughout the year I will play an open 3 team parlay for a few hundred dollars. I opened this one up last week with ravens in nfl and filled in 2nd spot with over pats/colts last night. Both winners. I logged on to heritage and filled in with new orleans pelicans +3. Well, I thought I was tonight against portland....turns out it is for tomorrow against sac kings. Heritage says they can not change it because the wager is already partially graded.

Guess nothing I can do huh? Any advice? Thanks.

edit: nevermind, I understand it now....

You could bet the other side to insure a profit I suppose. I'd just ride with it though.

I suppose I can understand them not being able to change any plays on an open parlay.

I guess you ride it out, unless you want to hedge to guarantee a profit.

Best of luck...

Aldridge just announced in so I'm guessing Port is more than -3.

Better off having it tomorrow vs Sac

I believe the game he wanted is tonight and he bet the game tomorrow.

Hedge it, guarantee a profit, and consider the profit found money, since you made a mistake.

We can disagree on politics and other things but we're all on the same page when it comes to winning.

I'm hoping. Feels like I'm free rolling now....however when new orl was up 12 in the 4th last night....not a happy camper.

Congrats! After reading your post I placed a small wager on the Pelicans as it felt as if it would have to happen. Didn't handicap the game, just bet blindly.

Funny the symmetry in reverse. The original game you wanted they were up by 12 but lost. This substitute play, so to speak, when I looked they were down by 12. And they won!
