Well I F'd up ,Bet the sides instead of totals

Journeyman · Dec 4, 2005

Made 3 bets today at one book...I clicked the side instead of the total, and would have did this on all 3 but I hesitated on the last bet... I already feel ill though...and I didn't even bother calling the book and asking for the bets back (pretty sure they would have) and switched them to what I really meant to play

I wanted Pitt/CINCY UNDER 1st half, instead I have PITT -1.5
I wanted Balto UNDER 1st half, instead I have Balto -5.5!!!!

:sad3: I bet them pretty large too.

if the book is anywhere near decent,they'll kill em for you..unless we're talking MAJOR money where they might be hesitant because they might have moved the line based on the action...

just dont wait until its a minute before kickoff to do said things....or you'll get even more pissed

They would have, I didn't catch the blunder til about a half hour had passed, and felt like I deserve it at that point...hope to just get a split now...if I go 0-2 and would have went 2-0 though...not gonna be a good day around here if that happens.

why not just bet the other sides? I don't get it.

Because I don't have the money laying around.

i have left two books because they wouldnt reverse a bet within minutes of the wager (no linemovement either).
