That is why they are the book.  You are lucky that they want to pay you $300.  I would bet if you looked over the betting agreement when you signed up that they would have the right to cancel the bet at any time as a wrong line.

I know it was a bad line but when you are betting you are suppose to find the best lines right?????????  I found it thats not my fault that line was up for 2 weeks they should have found it... i bet that an hour before the game for christs sake

Its a pennsylvania "underground" type thing... Whoever runs the site has "agents" and those agents get clients (me) and they are all paid a percentage and you pay your agent in cash every monday (or vice versa if you win)... Never had a problem with it before and now they are saying my agent should have caught the error but its not his fault he doesnt get paid to create lines.

You've got no argument whatsoever.

It was a bad line … they corrected it and paid you on the proper line.
Be thankful they didn't cancel the wager entirely

1. Common sense tell you it was a bad line.

2. If you bet through a no name book, you are fondling the Devil's balls and will get bit, eventually. I bet you've been scammed through those Nigerian Money order deals.

3. Consider yourself lucky to get that 300. Cash it out quickly.

It was an obvious error. You expected them to actually let you bet this?

Is it me or is +1500 still a bad line? Doesn't it seem like the right line was +150? I'd cash that 300 before it gets turned into 30.

you should lose that 20 bucks just for complaining.    

my book offered me 8,000,000,000 to 1 that the game would go overtime.  I needed 28-28....   then i found out it was a mistake and it should have only been 8-1.   

Still could have used the 8 bucks.
