    Default Sportsbook

    SBR Bill Dozer reports: Sportsbook.com (SBR rating C) voids another player’s winning wager after event had finished. This is the third complaint from players with the Sportingbet Group whose funds were debited due to what Sportsbook.com management calls a "bad line" on Tiger Woods to win the British Open. SBR has presented Sportsbook.com with information showing that these odds can not be considered an "obvious error". Players would have a legitimate complaint if the wager was simply canceled prior to the event but since Sportsbook waited weeks after the event had conlcuded, these players are victims of theft.

    SBR would also appreciate hearing from bettors who wagered on participants other than Tiger Woods to win the British Open whose wagers were graded as a loss.

    Disappointing, but not surprising.

    It was a moneyline price on Tiger about 20 cents different from what some other places had. Obviously the main issue is that the wager wasn't canceled before hand. The winnings were confiscated.

    I will create a thread documenting the details later today.

    I don't post on any other forums so I'm a newbie to the mix of people here. But I'm beginning to understand you now.

    On my ratings system, I give Sportsbook.com a C+.

    sportsbook.com sucks, pure and simple, they have been doing this shat for years. Its their business strategy, just stay away from this overhyped, underperforming rip off book.
