what should i have done with this betting situation?

years back went to the sportsbook in tijuana mexico to watch and play baskets all day. had utah minus six as the game ran down utah had the ball was up exactly six and blue edwards was hacked as the game expired.

nbc shows players walking off the court and posts final score on tv as a six point utah win. at that point tv is changed to another game end of story i go up and get my money back for the tie.

driving back home check my sports pager to see a utah win by eight. my first thought was this is the first time sports page has graded a wrong score. i start remembering the last second foul and panic. find out blue edwards was brought back on the floor for two fts and game offically was eight.

next day call the book office as they have a local san diego office an advertise alot on a popular so cal sports talk radio station. book manager basically acts like he doesnt understand what i am talking about and that i am out of my mind.

what should be done in a situation like this? what can be done?

What can be done? In this case as far as I can see nothing - why, because you already cashed you're ticket while the score was believed by both you and the book in TJ to have fell 6. Both real winners (like yourself) and real losers (the plus 6 bettors) were paid as if the game was a push. To walk back into the book a day later with no evidence you actually bet the game would have been fruitless IMO.

in vegas any wager can be looked up even without a ticket, a friend of mine cashed a bet just by mentioning it with the date time and amount of wager. I'm sure tiajuana isn't as accomadating.
