Default Cancelled Bet after Game

Last night I bet Mia at 4-15.I got an e-mail at 8:53 PST from SIA saying that my bet is cancelled due to an incorrect line.It says the same thing in bold red letters in my account statement.I would imagine if the bet lost they would take my money.Be careful.

SIA has a history of cancelling bets. They are infamous for cancelling futures with long odds when it appears the bet might win. They are crooks.

Doesn't SIA show bets as cancelled when a bet pushes? No clue on the email though.

What was the bet and what were the odds?

I saw that they had +4 for the game which would have pushed and said canceled in the account history as TC said. They also email you and say it's canceled as well.

You say the bet was cancelled after the game? Did you mean to say the bet was cancelled after the game started. No doubt when Miami was ahead.

The game ended at 8:33 Pacific.

I'm guessing you had +4 and it pushed, thus was canceled in SIA speak.

It's a push. They mislabelled the reason it was cancelled. The cancellation was correct and my bet was cancelled too. It was a typo.

You cannot be serious in thinking that SIA would cancel an MNF pointspread wager in this fashion.
