It has to be the way Steak Tartar says.....fine the over can win, but the under then has to lose.
This is actually more fair ( this time) as the correct side will win win this game, but what about if the game is 5-3 after 5 innings....it rains....do you want a loss on over 8.5 ? or even worse a 4-4 tie.
It kind of opens up another can of worms, eh ?
It's been this way forever, leave it be.
Vegas would have to initiate the change.
sorry if I didn't make myself clear....my thought is
over bets s/b graded as wins
under bets s/b graded as losses
the only reason I think this will never happen is because everyone will complain when they expect to get bailed out of their losing ticket and find out rules have changed....might not be worth the headache.
just my opnion that if the over/under has been decided....finishing the game makes no difference.

i can tell you this with absolute certainty, if they only graded shortened
games with the over as a winner (if it went over), or no action (if the
total was still under); then the books would get killed as every sharp,
angle shooter, weather guy would just bet the overs very large and be essentially
on a free roll.

I will bet anyone here $100 (sorry i'm not a big high roller) that they cannot predict which games will be rained out (first pitch must be thrown obv). Maybe I'm naive but I'm thinking we are giving sharps too much credit....my fucking weatherman lets it rain on me when he says "ok to go golf tomorrow"....i doubt a degenerate can do this with absolute certainty and make a killing.
I will set the line at 6 out of 10 games (60%)....if they can predict 6 out of 10 then no action, if they do 5 I win and 7 they win.
