General: yes. I first found out about this stupid ****ing rule before I was booted from SIA last year for winning 'too much' (as so many have), when I got screwed in the ass on that Wisconsin game in Vegas. I couldn't believe they didn't have the standard 55 minute rule, but these asswipes do list their stupid, turd-burgling rule clearly in their rules - as long as the 2nd half starts, the bet stands.
F-U-C-K that rule! I know it can work out for you but WHY on earth deviate like that from standard rules???

Here's their rules - I remember when I posted about the Whiskey fiasco last year at another site, some laffed and said 'big deal, won't happen again' - yeah, right ... notice football isn't the only sport they have a non-standard rule on ... yet for other sports, they DO have a 5-minute rule - what a ****ed-up rule!!!

I play with them and I'm not a big-time bettor either. Always got paid on NT the next day. Their CS is a bit better now than they used to be. Still not the greatest. Although there's a problem with their server being slow during NFL games. Tough to get a quick play in right before a game at times.
They're good to have as a secondary book because of the lines favoring the dogs a lot of times. Wouldn't use them as my primary book though.
