Default Anyone ever mis-click a bet and win?

Was capping at 6am this mourning, decided to take Cal -2 as one of my bets. I swear on my life I took cal. Well I woke up with 4 minutes left in the game and watched Arizona win by 4. Wasn't happy, as I lost.

I login to make another wager and my balance looks higher, I look at history and I took arizona +2. I know I liked cal, but I guess I misclicked. I'll take it!

whatever means to beat the books

It happened to me last college football season.

5 team parlay 4 ML's hit and needed an "over" The game went under so I was pissed. A couple of hours later I discover I accidently hit "under"

Parlay was 10 to win 82. Was happy as hell!

That happens to me every once in a while when Im trying to get a last minute bet in. It's always nice when you win on one, but frustrating as fuk when you lose

I was shitfaced one night betting horses and accidentally bet the same one to win twice in 2 seperate bets and got lucky and he won at 5-1. Done it a few times playing poker to win too. Also done it a few times as well and lost or been eliminated from tourneys.

It's not possible at my book because you have to confirm your wager after selecting your pick.

Shortstop I actually went in and replaced the wager cause I forgot I had placed it since I was betting 2 or 3 tracks at a pop. With poker now I wait till the screen pops up no matter what, no more checking the boxes. Lost a ton on that.

Well same with Pinnacle, which I bet with. But sometimes you're too eager and just wanna put it in you forget to review it.

I have done it a few times when trading in-game.
On the whole I have probably been on the wrong end of it, more often than not.

i love that. re-entering the password is such a terrible confirmation screen. you never look at ur bet and just enter the password fast anyway.

I mistakenly checked the 9 horse instead of the 8 horse on one I had been waiting a month for, so the wager was more than normal, $150 on the nose. I called the book more that 20 minutes before the race to try and correct it, but they refused. Turned out, the 9 won by about six lengths at more than 20-1, which I cashed in and made the down payment on a new car. Ooops. Sorry Tony.

Think about it: most bettors would be rich if they mis-clicked each and every one of their picks.

Yeah. Had to buy two 22'' because at one point I figured I'm losing too much on misclicks.
