    Sportsbetting.com cancels bet mispriced by .05 during game
    Sportsbetting.com cancels bet mispriced by .05 during game

    A Sportsbetting.com (SBR rating C) player submits a sportsbook wagering complaint. The player tells SBR that he placed a $550 wager on the NY Giants vs Arizona Cardinals halftime total, which was listed at 21 points -105/-115. The player's wager was on "over", priced at -105. The player claims that after 14 points had been scored in the second half, he received an email message indicating that his wager had been canceled. Sportsbetting.com (ag) cited a line error, claiming that the correct line was 21.5 -110/-110.

    Sportsbetting.com: The message is to inform you that the wagers on the Second Half total of the New York Giants vs. Arizona Cardinals NFL game scheduled for today Sunday, October 2nd, 2011 have been No Actioned due to a wrong line po sted. The total for the second half of the game was listed as 21.5, UN -115; the correct line was 21.5, -110 either way.

    As per our rules,

    "We will make every effort to ensure that all information available on our Site is accurate; however, in the case of obvious mechanical, technical or human error in the prices or conditions we publish, we reserve the right, at our discretion, to either modify your wager and to pay you out at the correct prices or to no-action your wager."

    Thank you for your understanding.
    SBR is attempting to verify this sportsbook complaint. A sportsbook cannot choose to void a wager if it is allegedly mispriced by a mere five cents. Additionally, the player's claim that the wager was accepted then voided during the game would cement the sportsbook's actions as unjust. SBR will update this report.

                Don't be an idiot

                Do you have an account with sportsbetting?

                or

                Are you just an idiot degenerate gambler who loses all of his money so he is quick to jump in a thread and bash any book over any dispute even though he has yet to hear both sides of?

                    I called this books out many months ago and got the 3rd degree from shills. Other options out there. No reason to settle and play for books like this.

                      I've played there for years with no issues but this is a terrible ruling. Being off by 5 cents is not a bad line. It happens all the time in halftime wagering. Sbr please investigate and let us know what happens. They should overturn this

                          this book once canceled an nfl money line bet on me that was 5c off the line at pinny.

                          they have also let stand bets that were 200cents off where they should have been

                                Over 21 (-105) is a lot more than .05 cents when the true line was Over 21.5 (-110)

                                The dispute clearly explains that the player bet Over 21 (-105)

                                I still do not think that it constitutes canceling the wager but we still have yet to see what happens with the dispute as SBR is still waiting to hear from Sportsbetting.ag on the matter.

                                As I stated earlier I have played with sportsbetting for many years and they have never cheated me in anyway give them a chance to clear this up. It is foolish to draw your conclusion without knowing exactly what has happened.

                                      we the players "ACEEPTS" the article regarding the book has the right to cancel a bet (bad odds / human error )...., this article is 100% to protect the book...., the term bad line dont exist, if this happend the line manager is not doing his work and every time when this Idi-t called "line manager" do a mistake, he calls this rule. We risk money and trust X site, we have the right to have a "HIGH QUALITY LINE MANAGER!!!", and the bookie have the "EGGS" to accepts the risk of the HUMAN ERROR maded by this guy.

                                        I am handling this dispute.

                                        If the facts are as the player stated, and he bet Over 21 -105 when the sportsbook intended to offer Over 21 -110, I think SBR will agree when I say this is not a bad line that should be voided.

                                              Is the dispute over the difference between o21 -105 & o21 -110 (as you state) or between o21 -105 and o21.5 -110 (as bigboydan states)? Those are pretty different situation (although neither should be canceled midway through the second half, IMO).

                                                my only problem is lower limits on some sports. but this is insane - what's net. just cancel all wins and keep all losing bets.

                                                      I was also on the "receiving" end of this. I bet both the o21 -105 and the o21.5 -110. I received notice that the o21 was No Actioned.

                                                        Did they say why they voided them in the first place? Did someone press the wrong button or were they taking a shot at their players hoping no-one would kick up a stink?

                                                          Nice Justin!

                                                          Did you ever get my complaint on them about my withdrawal Justin?

                                                                A Sportsbetting.com (SBR rating C) manager has addressed the wagering dispute reported by SBR on October 3rd. In that dispute, a player stated that a second half wager on the NY Giants vs Arizona Cardinals game was canceled during the third quarter. The player forwarded an email from Sportsbetting.com (ag) which indicated that the wager was voided due to the correct line being a mere five cents different. The manager who spoke with SBR indicated that the wagering supervisor who made this ruling acted in error, and that effected players would have their winning tickets reinstated. SBR asks Sportsbetting.com players to write to help@sportsbookreview.com with feedback.
