Default Attn. Bookmaker: Feel Free to Grade Winning Wagers that Have Been Decided Days Ago.

The Cardinals, Yankees, and Angels have won their division. The wagers in those divisions have been decided. Yet, Bookmaker refuses to grade them. Why?

The Greek graded these bets immediately upon these division wagers being decided.

Rational thinking would be to grade these bets so the player can hurry up and lose the money back to the sportsbook. What reasoning could there be for the book to not grade these wagers that have been decided? Its not like regular season win total futures that usually come with a minimum games to be played rule.

World could end. Season could be cancelled.

Seriously, I agree that would be nice if they would just grade. But it seems to me this distinction between them and TheGreek has gone on for years. Bookmaker/CRIS waits until the season is over. TheGreek grades as soon as clinched.

Too many players fail to incorporate risk of apocalypse into their handicapping.

handle >>> float

If that statement isn't true, you're in the wrong business.

Take it up with the people who run Pinnacle/Bookmaker/etc. They don't agree.

I've got Angels at Matchbook, and that also hasn't been graded.

This just for you Johnny C. EVERYONE THAT IS BEING SLOW PAID BY WSEX PLEASE START YOUR OWN THREAD.

I berated no nothings that said WSEX was closing up shop.

I berated posters that said WSEX was not going to pay anyone.

Geesh, the stupidity of some people.
