Default Re: When a sportsbook offers an obviously mistaken line....

[ QUOTE ]
Does the fact it was performed on an exchange rather than at a sportsbook make a difference? I'm fairly certain however that the offered lines was from the book itself and not another trader.

I don't play the exchanges (yet) so I don't know what if and how the terms are different on those sites.

here are some examples of cancelled bets:

"Dear Pinnacle Sports Client,

Please accept our apologies for the following: as stated in our Web-Site rules, we will not accept action with obvious, gross line errors or incorrect match-ups.

For this reason we have cancelled your wager on the Cleveland Browns Money Line.

You may go to your account and replay the event at the correct price.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

If you have any questions, please email directly our Customer Service Department at csd@pinnaclesports.com.

Regards,
Customer Service Department
Pinnacle Sports"

"Dear Sir,


In accordance with our rules your wager on Atlanta - Washington, game 2, was cancelled your wagers due to an obviously incorrect line posted on the game. The line should have opened at -113 on Atlanta not -147 where you got your bet at +137 on Washington.


Regards,
Cathy - WSEX."
