Streak Leader at 17

We finally have a leader at 17 wins for the first time in awhile. Goodluck on his next pick to win #18!

Thanks, Tyler! Cheers! 

Buddy, how did you get CAVS +6 at home tomorrow? Is that line an error? the line is -8.

@Tailer187

 Looks like it. He picked it early. Sometimes you can get a weird line. Obviously it's a mistake on Covers part . Early line was -6 . They just screwed up with the plus and minus sign.  Once it's locked and loaded how can they take it back ? I'd take the Cavs with 6. 1/2.  Watch Indiana wins by 7. 11-1 Monthly. I could use a sure bet.

He may get away with a free winner

It's been voided 

@tylerb2115

 Dam it....that was a nice line 

Cshel may run the table now. Good luck man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks, Biff! Good luck yourself and Cheers!

Lucky they voided it .....holy smokes..... Indiana wins by 9

looks like they marked it as a loss.  His streak is over.

@tylerb2115

 I doubt it was voided. I've snagged many screwed up early lines over the years and they always paid me. 

Unfortunately tonight he had the unbelievable happen and got the Cavs +6.5 at home and they lose outright by 9 and the series.

Congrats cshelinore on a great run. Don't feel bad about that pick - it should have been a gift.

Thanks, Messy!

You’ve seen picks go from status pending to status void to status win or loss over the years?

@cshelinore

 No, I should clarify - I've always been paid from sportsbooks as long as I got the bet in, even if they messed up the line royally.

Covers Streakcatcher may have their own way of dealing with it. Congrats again on 17 - impressive capping!

@Messy

Thanks again and thanks for the clarification.

Flynt (Covers Team) posted this midafternoon today:

That line has been made invalid as it was an error with our feed from the book we use. The users pick was made void and will have to choose another pick.

@cshelinore

 Well that sounds amazing - your streak is still alive then!

The pick was voided at first and now graded as a loss

"That line has been made invalid as it was an error with our feed from the book we use. The users pick was made void and will have to choose another pick."

So made void, then graded as a loss. If Cleveland had covered, would it have been graded as a win?

Once a pick has been made void, it's void. His streak should still be alive.

@Messy @Flynt 

Thank you, Messy, for hitting the nail on the head.

If it hadn’t been deemed “invalid” and “void” I’d have zero problem with it being graded as a Loss.

But being SWITCHED from “invalid” and “void” to a Loss is an entirely different thing.

As you said — has a pick ever been changed from Void to Win?

Thank you for getting it.

@cshelinore

Great to see you are back in business as you should be.

All the best in the quest for 21!

It was definitely a poor decision.

They say.. The first rule of cheating? Don’t get caught.

However, I agree with @cshelinore point, His 17 streak should be restored.

Seems like his streak is alive again.

Good luck going forward!

Props to Covers for properly restoring the cshelinore streak.

Covers has been very fair and honorable, unlike a lot of weasels out there in the betting world.

GL on win #18 tonight 

@Messy

Ditto. Props to Covers. Win or Lose, I would have been 100% fine with it. But once it was voided, it was voided. Received a solid email from Myles letting me know it had been resolved.

Picked Fla@Tor over 5.5 on a whim after thinking my streak had reset to zero.

Thanks to all and good luck out there! Cheers!
