Look tomorrow when games are in the 5th inning. They put out a new line for the game and you can bet on it. Congrats to both of the guys above!

Second Chance Baseball

Second Chance Baseball is a product we are offering to try and give everyone a second chance to bet baseball games, as with halftime betting in other sports. Lines will come up in the bottom of the 5th inning and will be dealt until the start of the 6th inning.

Why are bets 'No Action' if there is a run in the bottom of the 5th? Why not just deal it between the 5th and 6th?

We wanted to give the customers as much time to bet as possible. We realize that often the bets will be no action. The lines will be available until the 1st pitch in the 6th so if you want to avoid No Action, you can wait for the 5th to end.
What happens when there is a run scored in the 5th?

We will refund all bets that had been placed on the 5th Inning Second Chance and will deal a 6th inning Second Chance line. A 6th Inning Second Chance will work the same as the 5th inning but will be cancelled if there is a run in the bottom of the 6th.
What happens if the game doesn't go a full 9 or 8 1/2 innings?

All Second Chance wagers will be refunded, including moneylines.
Which lines will be dealt for which games? Which juice will be used?

Totals will be dealt for all games with -108 style pricing. Spreads will be dealt for all games where a team is leading by 3 or more runs with -108 style pricing. Moneylines will be dealt in all games where a team is leading by 3 or less runs with -108 style pricing or better. Moneylines will be occasionally be dealt on games with a greater than 3 run lead, on a game by game basis.

I Love the 2nd chance option as well, paid off twice for me yesterday, we should start a thread everyday to post which 2nd chance bets look good or not and also discuss why, what do you think?
