rain outs..... those who use local books

Need some feed back,

How do rain outs work with local books? What does the game have to do, just go to 6 innings or more? And also, if a game is postponed, ur bet is just cancelled, correct?

Im asking for the most part, most guys all do it the same right?

Thx a lot guys.

Local books should follow same rules as Vegas or any online books. 5 innings for win/lose and 9 innings for totals to count. And yes, bet is cancelled if game is postponed.

Agree. Legit locals use Vegas rules. Official game, 4.5 or 5 innings for a ML side to count. 8.5 or 9 innings for totals and RL to count. PPD games are No Action. Suspended games are No Action, except in the case of games suspended in extra innings, where Overs should count if they have scored enough runs by the end of 9 innings.
