I am currently in a discussion with Gamebookers, which I find a good bookie in general, about a bet I made. When Lance Armstrong announced his comeback I made several bets on specials on Lance Armstrong (e.g. To win the Tour de France, to start the Tour de France). One of these bets was about whether or not he was going to win a stage. I put some money on Armstrong to win a stage (with odds of 101 (decimal)) and I waited until July to watch the Tour de France. Now, Astana won the team time trial, and Armstrong is considered to be (one of the) stage winner(s) of that stage. Convinced to have won the particular bet I checked my account but the bet kept being unsettled so I decided to mail Gamebookers and ask about it. Their reply was that they consider Armstrong not to have won a stage, however the official Tour de France-website (on which they say to base their settlement on) says he has!
Now, a number of mails and replies beyond, I can say Gamebookers is not going to give me this one, what to do now?
These are the facts



Thanks..

These are the facts
- The bet, the settlement and the selected outcome (I scratched away the bet amount, not anybody needs to know how much I bet
):


- The official Tour de France-website ( http://www.letour.fr/2009/TDF/RIDERS...ureurs/22.html ) clearly says Armstrong to have won a stage, and as you can see the same was the case in 2005:

- If the Team Time Trial is not included in these kind of bets, it is (and obviously should be) mentioned by the bookie as the Team Time Trial is considered as a stage. No such message was with the bet.

Thanks..
