    Default 5 dime wording conflict

    I wagered on US open cut score Under 149 1/2 at 5 Dime.
    Cut was 149 ,so I thought I won. However they claimed I lost.
    Because cut was 150.They said Cut score was the first person' score who miss the cut.This is a rediculous wording to me. I checked some sites follow the golf and cut means last person`s score who made cut as I thought.I did not check the wording before I bet and they did not show the rule about it on their web. However I felt I was conned.Is there any way to resolve this matter?

    That does seem raw. So if you shot a 150 you missed the cut but if you carded a 149 you made the cut?

    Can you copy and paste the exact wording of the prop bet?

    US OPEN 36 HOLE STROKES UN 149.5

    wording is just that.So it does not help much .And I asked live chat and confirmed this was cut.

    I'm not a golf guy, but I say 149 is the number involved, so a winner, IMO.

    There must be a precedent for this. The half helps the bettor, IMO.

    I think the cut is the number of the last guy to make it, not the last guy +1, that's illogical.

    The cut is the highest number to qualify, not the first number to miss.

    I've never heard of any kind of betting on the lowest number to miss the cut. It seems ridiculous to me. That's a completely irrelevant number. The cut is the cut.

    I'd be getting a manager on the phone.

    Thats all the wording there was?

    Can you write Bill so we can get to the bottom of this? Assistance@sportsbookreview.com.

    Poorly written props really create unnecessary work for all of us. C'mon book, lets butch and write a prop that we dont have to put under a microscope.

    That was all. I asked live chat if it was cut and was told it was cut.And cut should be the last peoson's score who qualify as other posters said.I can not login right now.
    After I can login,I am going to cut and paste the wager and send bill .

    5dimes is a bunch of crooks and scammers! This is the worst book out there and they should be downgraded instantly.

    I can login now with firefox.Windows update or firewall update killed my IE. That was not their fault.

    No problem Golf. Lets see what we can get done on this. 5Dimes has always been fair.

    Unless the prop was actually worded, lowest number to miss the cut, 5 Dimes is messed up on this one.

    There is no ambiguity about what the cut is in a golf tournament.

    Golfbet,
    It looks like both U and O backers are going to get credited with a win for this.

    I don't have your account ID yet but you should see it reversed in a bit.

    Good job Bill. Im sure Golfbet will be happy with this outcome.

    They need to word this prop a little better next time.

    classy way to handle it. 5D screws up sometimes because they have so many options. I knew you'd get paid. Calling over no action would have been nice ( since it lost) a win is outstanding.
