Anyone notice anything strange here? Lol, I will take it anyday

Angels pitcher is listed as Jeff Weaver, not Jared. I assume that's why there was "no action".

Shows listed pitcher JefWeaver. He pitches for Seattle. It should be no action. You would think this late in the season, this couldnt happen.

Correct, didn't see it until today.arty:

in case u dont realize a couple days after the fact, jered weaver was pitching for angels.....SO it isnt like they listed some random incorrect pitcher, they listed a 3 letter abbreviation for weaver indicating jeff, not jered.....so if u dint bet on the game........you would think....duh, "weaver pitches for m's, of course its no action". The employee was trying to abbreviate jered weavers name

the truth is jered weaver pitched, and his name is abbreviated the same as jeff weavers is when using 3 letters, except for the r, insteadof f.

JER NOT JEF.

THE SAD THING IS, I BET ON THE INDIANS, AND KNEW IW AS BETTING AGAINST A WEAVER, I DIDNT BOTHER TO CHECK IF THEY SPELLED IT RIGHT.

SECONDLY AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, WHEN DISCUSSING THIS WITH SPORTSBOOK MANAGEMENT. sample wager below

Straight Wager 09/11/07 19:08 ET
bet 1,000.00 to win 1,530.00 (paid 2530.0) Result: Wager Won

Braves(Atlanta) Carlyle 13
Mets(NY) Hernandez 5 09/11/07(19:10 ET)
Braves(Atlanta) +153

that wager is from last night, as is customary at sportsbook, they use last names only, the only reason to include a first name, is if theres another player by same name on that team. Anyone who follows baseball knows jeff weaver was traded by seasons end LAST YEAR, and in fact played a role in the stl cardinals winning world series. he signed with seattle in off season and we all know the rest.

THERE WAS NO REASON TO EVEN UTILIZE A 3 LETTER ABREVIATION IN JERED WEAVERS SUNDAY START, BECAUSE THERE IS NO ONE ELSE NAMED WEAVER ON THE TEAM. tHE SPORTSBOOK EMPLOYEE DID NOT ONLY USE THE INCORRECT ABBREVIATION, BUT THE SIMPLE FACT HE USED AN ABBREVIATION AT ALL, WHEN THERE CUSTOMARY USAGE IN LAST NAME ONLY IS INDEED THE BIGGEST PROBLEM.

Parlay (2 Teams) 09/09/07 19:58 ET

THIS COST ME OVER 750 BUCKS, AND I POSTED THE PLAY SUNDAY NIGHT AND HAD SEVERAL PEOPLE TAIL MY PLAY. I SUSPECT THE PEOPLE POSTING IN MY THREAD MADE MUCH MORE MONEY THAN I DID...SINCE MY RETARDED ASS SPORTSBOOK, CALLED THE TRIBE GAME NO ACTION, AND PAID ME AS IF I STRAIGHT WAGERED THE DALLAS TOTAL only.

Sure uw ere on the right side of this error with angels , and u made 300 u shoulda lost, i lost 750 i shoulda won, but the fact is, it was 1 consonant as an f, not an r, in a case where they did not even have to specify a first name at all.

THEY COMPENSATED ME WITH A 300 DOLLAR Bonus Play, WHICH HARDLY MAKES UP FOR IT. THEY SHOULD HAVE TO EAT THOSE LOSSES AS BIG AS AN OUTFIT AS THEY ARE
