    Bodog is colorblind

    So.... I'm one of the idiots that bet on the ridiculous superbowl props. I use Bodog (i know...my first mistake). Anyway, I bet that Kim Kardashian would be wearing a black top. The wording of the bet even mentioned that if she was wearing a jacket (she was), the color would apply to the top and not the jacket. It was black, but bodog settled it as brown and refuses to back down. I've sent picture after picture showing her clearly in a black top but they claim it's brown. It is beyond ridiculous. Anyway, that's my rant. As you were....

    She probably changed at half time...not really kidding.

    With a prop like that the sportsbook has to generous. Dark brown or grey should even count.

    There are always prop misgrades each year. There are so many of them and some can be a little subjective. I think last year there was a prop about what color the gatorade will be and yellow and green were choices. The gatorade flavor was lemon-Lime. The good books sort it quickly. Barring some claim that she changed during a celebration, and it was listed as the player said, Bodog will pay it.

    Boscoe,
    Have you sent in your account #?

    I haven't. I'm such an extremely low stakes player that I wasn't sure if it was worth it.

    Here is the bet word for word...

    Single #166711166 (Loss)
    Football - NFL Team Props (Prop) Moneyline
    (5050) Black 21/20Super Bowl XLIV - What color top will Kim Kardashian be wearing at the Super Bowl?
    Wager is on color of top and not on jacket if seperate top and jacket are shown. If two or more options are combined as the primary color on top then all wagers are no action.

    Go for it Boscoe. PM it to Becky even if it's lunch money. Plus, you might help someone else who doesn't know they won a bet on black.

    So.... with Becky's assistance, I was able to get my original wager amount back. They are still claiming it's brown, but whatever. Anyway, as a token of my gratitude for at least getting my initial amount back, here is a picture of a brown cat...

    There's absolutely no question that the shirt in the picture is black. I don't know what they're basing their decision on. Another picture?


    Boscoe, did they ever explain how they arrived at the conclusion that it's brown, or did they just tell you it was brown?

    For these props, they should really have pictures as evidence so people don't question how the bets are settled.

    it sounds like he didn't actually get paid. They just agreed to push his wager and refund the amount he bet, while refusing to concede that it was black.

    It makes no sense. I guess they figure he'll stop making a fuss as long as he didn't end up in the red, but I'm pretty damn sure they didn't refund all the black wagers.

    So this was never settled, and at this rate, I don't know if it ever will.

    So even though it was black and someone acted like they would take care of you...they did not...how could you keep an account there?

    Imagine if you place a large bet!

    I did not get paid. They refunded my risk amount but the bet still shows up as a loss in the bet history, so this didn't apply for everyone else. I really don't know what else to do at this point. This is a picture they sent me (even though it is one that I sent them in a previous email...go figure). They claim that in natural light, it's brown. Obviously, it's black. Black is black. I've never had a problem with Bodog before, but it is beyond me how they wouldn't rule that as 100% black. I do like that Bodog pays out quickly and the poker room, but maybe I will look into another book.

    I know you're a low stakes player, but if it were me, and given that this is something that would catch fire on sportstalk radio shows, I'd call around, send some emails, etc., and see if you can get it enough people talking about it that Kim herself comes out and says "um, I was wearing a BLACK top." Again, we're not talking about a lot of money here, but it would certainly be entertaining.

    That's not a bad idea. Maybe I'll send this on to a few of the bigger sports blogs.

    I just found this little gem... Apparently that black top is the T by Alexander Wang mini pocket tank dress. It doesn't come in brown. I'm turning into a damn fashion expert over this crap.
