See the thread getting all the hits right now.

Yes, you lost.

shdw01 · Oct 27, 2008

ummmmmm.....i know this is a loser, but according to rules, shouldn't this be VOID?

Man, shdw, you got bent over sans lube tonight.

No, since the 5th inning was completed, that 5 inning total has action.

yeah, i already expected the loser there...just figured I need to read more fine print

TheWolf · Oct 27, 2008

Looks like 5Dimes, huh?

Good luck getting that back.

Brock Landers · Oct 27, 2008

this has been the rule for a year or two at least now

happened earlier this year in the white sox/orioles game in April

I liked having Philly graded as a winner here LOL

shdw01 · Oct 27, 2008

actually this is with a local that has bets put in through an online account....if this were $500 instead, i think I'd try and talk him into giving me either a push or a freeroll for the remainder of the game.

cutacrossshorty · Oct 27, 2008

This is the 3rd or 4th game this season where that rule came into play.

KeithRichard · Oct 28, 2008

My bets at Matchbook are still listed as current bets. One bet I got in just before game started and the others were live bets made later. All are listed as still pending. Shouldn't the live bets at least been canceled?

Yeah, the live bets will be cancelled.

TheWolf · Oct 28, 2008

MB has not graded anything yet.

I'm sure according to their rules, TB bets will lose htough.

Live bets will be cancelled........another stupid rule to cancel those yet grade the others.

TheWolf · Oct 28, 2008

Any chance MB lets these bets ride out until end of game? No grades have been issued yet.

They told me on live chat that all live betting is no action. It has to be, because their rules are right at the top. He said he wasn't sure if they would have live betting available for the game tomorrow. But my guess is that they will.

Here is a sanario,your an agent your novice i.e. square clients are pissed and threatning to bolt.

You have to pay him and throw him a Bonus Play it's just good business.

Mean while your paying the winners and they don't look a gift horse in the mouth.

Your out thousands of dollars but wtf you gonna do.

PomH8er · Oct 28, 2008

This is correct.

Horrible situation for bookies. No way many get out in profit on this one.

A year or TWO ? Try the last 50 years.

kidslick · Oct 28, 2008

maybe they will make an exception

this is the

world series

betjamaica graded my wager as a loss.

Tico · Oct 28, 2008

I disagree with the postion that the game should be graded differently from how all other baseball games were graded during the course of the year. This game is special, yes. But the argument could be made by anyone that a certain game is special. Those of us who lost will not be happy... but it is the only fair thing to do IMO. Messed up situation no doubt...

cashflowmatters · Oct 28, 2008

5 Dimes graded game as NO PLAY. Any Book that graded it anything but NO ACTION should not be bet with in the future.
