So I got screwed last night...

Was loving my 15 unit bet on the following:
Tennessee M/L
Over +41.0
Tampa Bay M/L (World Series)


Saw the Titans win, and saw the 52 points, and heard the score in the baseball game, and was pumped! Logged into Sports Interaction (where I bet) and discovered that they said the Tampa part was a loss. Turns out if it gets rained out, they take the score of the last played inning. After 5, it was 2-1 Philly. Tampa tied it up in the top of the 6th.

So needless to say, an expletive-filled phone call to them later, I decided that I'm in the market for somewhere else to play with my hard earned Canadian dollars. lol So does anyone have any suggestions? I'm very f*cking irked about this.

And all she kept saying was "Well call it BS if you want, sir, but if you'd read the rules you'd see that you agreed to it when you signed up." My argument the whole time was that anyone who bet Philly just scammed a free win out of them, and she didn't seem to care. Ya. Very not happy right now. So any suggestions at all on anywhere else I can play that'll allow Canadians would be great.

That's what my argument was! It should've just been voided off the bet, but no, her "line manager" said that's what the rule was and they had to stick with it, so I told her where she and her f*cking line manager could stick it. And I'm glad they recorded that phone call, too. I hope they play that at staff meetings!

In any event, I'm sorry I vented here and thanks for reading/listening.

someone must be napping over there..this is in their rules


Winners and Losers are official after 5 innings of play unless the home team is leading after 4˝ innings. If a game is called or suspended, the score after the last full inning determines the winner. If the home team scores to tie - or takes the lead in the bottom half of the inning and the inning is not completed, the score at the time the game is called determines the winner. Monies will be refunded if the home team ties the game and it is then suspended. Events will not carry over to the following day (unless otherwise specified). Bookmaker does not recognize suspended games, protests, overturned decisions, etc. for betting purposes.

I found that odd myself...but I just checked again and it says "Short...N/A."

It says "NO BET"

Just an FYI

What about futures bets? Exact games? How can they not recognize a suspended game? Philly has already won the world series as far as these books are concerned?
