SA Footy

Sportsbet currently have WWT Eagles @ $2.10 for +23.5

I would recommend you dont

Because they are a sponsor and this is an obvious mistake or because you think South will destroy the Eagles?

I'm also surprised at the odds being up so early, hopefully we get these early odds all season.

Nah now they are owned by Europeans and they have the same software as the Euro bookies and I know how Euro bookies operate, if anyone is seen as taking advantage of wrong prices they will usually ban them as they dont want to do business with them, rightly or wrongly...

Id rather keep my account open and take advantage of the genuine overs like Port and Glenelg this weekend

Not a go at you Dutchy, but if thats true, that's a load of garbage...

Taking advantage off wrong prices?

Firstly who decides it's the "wrong" price? What, it doesnt seem right to you?
Well it's listed on their site, its able to be bet on, the bet will be accepted...

sure they can decide to cancel the bet as per their conditions but to block your account with that accusation would be heading down a pretty dangerous path if you ask me

I'm fairly sure as a consumer there are certain rights that I have also

So you think a $1.18 favourite should have a +27.5 line? You dont think that is a mistake?

what about when sportsbet have the right market and still dont pay up????

But in theory, how do you know if the $1.18 is the mistake or the +27.5 is?

OK then

Look Im not telling anyone what to do, but I have personal experience with the way Euro bookies work, if in doubt have a look at this example - http://www.sportsbookreview.com/NewsWir ... sures.aspx

And Ive just read on a private forum (so I cant post link here) that Sportsbet have just closed a heap of accounts without any explanations.

i love the ad they have with UPSHit cREEK that describes their treatment of clientele

Match has been taken down

market been corrected

keep an eye on your account over next few days if u took eagles price on points

Has been refunded mate with an explanation from Customer Service .. No problems with that

if they have provided a written explanation then thats a lot better then having bets cancelled without any acknowledgement

thats easy, sportbet look at which option is being backed and then decide

a couple of months ago i forgot to hit the the flexi box on a bet that ended up costing me $100 instead of $10, tried to get it cancelled before the race but got nowhere as apparantly i need to be more careful before submitting anything (which i agree with) but when they dont have the same rules for themselves is where its wrong
