"Will there be overtime"...No = -140 (too easy?)

[JackPrice+]

I realize any game can go in to OT, but at -140 don't the odds of a game overtime MORE THAN justify laying money at -140?

Opinions?

 

[whalewager]

Fuck yes it does...this is just the type sucker bet I would bet the limit on

 

[Huckel]

that has to be a mistake

 

[whalewager]

Exactly...should be 300 minimum...

 

[Icemantbi]

Yep, that can't be right! I think the book missed a 0, that should be more like -1400 and not -140! I'd pound that sucker hard at -140!

By the way, this reminds me of Superbowl 36 between the Pats and Rams.... a guy I knew bet a shitload on the "No OT" prop at some rediculous price, thinking it was easy money. I can't remember what it was, but he paid a ton and he only got $100 out of it. When Vinateri kicked that last second FG, he was practically crying. I don't think he ever made another bet since.

Yup, they sure did.

Is it stardard practice for an online book to be able to go in and just cancel a bet because they screwed up?

 

[whalewager]

it is if the line was bad...of course

yes, definitely in their right to do so. you have to read the fine print at the book.

line is -1400

I got into it with Bodog Life last summer live betting the HR Derby. They put up a line that paid out something like +650 that Josh Hamilton would hit 7 or less HR's in the semifinals (knowing full well he wouldn't even half to hit to advance to the finals). I max bet it (I think it was $500) and they tried to rule the bets as no action because Hamilton didn't stay up there to make 10 outs. It took a few emails but they finally decided to reverse their decision and pay it out the next day. In that case though, they were missing a disclaimer whereas this is simply an obvious omission on the part of your book.

There have been 7 overtimes in 68 Tourney Finals. Good luck.
