When a sportsbook offers an obviously mistaken line....

[humdinger]

At the WSOP last year, when down to three tables, Pinnacle had a line up:

Will Greg Raymer win the WSOP?

Yes +900
No + 3600

I unloaded on the +3600 side. If he DIDN'T win, I'd score large.

I was contacted about an hour later by phone, saying it was a bad line, and my bet was cancelled. I then received an email saying my bet was cancelled.

Then my account was closed.

I was told that if I had emailed them, pointing out the incorrect line, they 'may allow' me to bet on it, if I was the first to bring it to their attention.
