What is your biggest pet peeve when it comes to RULES at the sportsbooks...

[Dante]

I really do not have one but im sure many of you do....What rule in General bothers you the most

 

[wildbill06]

Nothin too bad about the rules, but I sure as hell wish i could find one that didnt have a casino in it! I guess they know that dumbass people like me will come home drunk one night and play around with my profits from the weekend.

Probably the 30-90 day holding period some shops attach to their rollover requirement on certain bonuses.

Exactly Kiss....If you post up thru neteller without sending them faxed stuff NONE is needed on the way out IMO...ESpecially with you using neteller

 

[earl]

rollovers of 5 or more........... and some books offer a bonus but you can never withdrawl regardless of action, what a joke.

The Cap On Exotic Bets Playing Horses

 

[valueman]

Never bet with a book whose rules i don't like.Not paying up which isn't in the rules is theone I have a problem with.

 

[tooran]

I don't like the rule where they take my money.

BULLSHIT !

Could you (or anyone) list some books that regularly make punters send info? I'd like to add them to my pay no mind list.

 

[CHOPTALK]

Every sportsbook needs to use the same time zone.

 

[ronaldn]

Having to pay for withdrawals.

wps MAx horse payoffs at Olympic . what a joke for a great book.

 

[jwunderdog]

fax them,calling me about offers both I hate. One other rule that never made sense to me was the max payout on parlays and they don't adjust you wager amount. Don't do a lot of parlays but if a book has a $10000 max payout on parlays and you place a parlay that goes over it the max you can win is 10000. They should adjust you wager amount just like they do on regular wagers. As I said I don't do it alot and I can't remember which books do it.

PET PEEVE No 1:
Future bets that have lines like:

New England -110
Indy +110
Pittsburgh +120

and you realize that the hold is close to 87%

Why even put up props like that?

PET PEEVE 2:

Using your last withdrawal to deny you a bonus.

At Skybook, I am down about $600 overall but since my last transaction was a withdrawal of $1,650, THAT is my make-up figure.

My favorite book Olympic has the silliest rule on baseball series. I had a series where my team won the first 2 games out of 3 and immediately scored it a win for myself the 3rd game was rained out so bet was called a push - Any other book I would have won bet Chris or WWTS - So now I only play series bets with Olympic when games are played in domes. Bizarre I think-

easy
its tennis rules at different books involving retirements during matches.
some books require 1 set to be completed
others 2 sets
others the whole match must be completed.
when i bet my parlays, its at the book w/ the best lines.
i wish all books would have same rules for tennis.
