This game was suspended at 3-3, after 8 innings, due to rain, and it will continue today from 1:10 PM ET with the 9th inning.

How bookies deal with such situation?
It's a unitary rule, valid at all bookies, or each bookie has different rules for a case like this?

There are only 2 possibilities of course:

1. Wager is returned, deemed "no action".
2. Wager still rides until the game is finished today.

I'm interested in what offshore big bookies would do....

My bad...
I just saw I forgot to mention in the first post that I'm talking just about moneyline wagers.

Should've been graded properly unless you played early before Sale was scratched. In that case, a push is correct.

The general rule for a suspended game is that it's graded on the last completed inning, which was the 8th. They never wait for the game to be completed the next day or whenever. Since it didn't go 9, full game totals and RL are no action. 5 inning wagers should get graded, but the somewhat late scratch of Sale complicates things. I believe 5 inning wagers are always listed pitchers.

no action as always, 2nd time in week had the U on the Sox and was no action when it looked like a win.

I thought that moneyline bets will ride until the game is completed today, but it looks like they return wagers on full game moneylines.

So nothing else had action on this one but first 5 inning bets, of course which had the correct pitchers too...

Totally different bet, but I put in a live play before the 8th started. My book is carrying it over.

Every game has to be completed on the day it is played otherwise wager is cancelled is the rule the books go by

I don't think that's worded properly. A game that isn't completed that day does get graded. Most or all offshore books go back to the last completed inning. There's been a number of instances where it's past the 5th inning and the visiting team either ties the game or takes the lead and the inning is never fully completed. The most famous instance is the 2008 World Series where Tampa tied the Phillies at 2-2 with a run in the top half (6th inning?), but the game got suspended before the inning was complete. Offshore books graded the game as a 2-1 win for Phillies bettors. Totals and RLs were cancelled.

As noted in post #15, I have no idea how in-game wagers are handled.
