Whats up yall? I'm still pretty new to UC, and need some advice.


Lets say a reputable online book makes an error with one of their listings. For example, Toronto +50 1st Half.

What would you do?

Do you take advantage of the error and wager big, knowing that it for sure can't lose?

Do you notify the book and not make a play at all?

Do you make a play, Then notify them?


I already have an opinion on the situation, but would like to see what others recommend. Thanks for any help.

I'm guessing they will not honor it as it is an obvious mistake. Some books would and some books won't but I'm guessing most won't.

Right.....This is actually the 2nd time within a month that they made an error on a line. The first time I wagered and notified them of the mistake, and they still honored my play. I was mainly afraid of not getting my money back on a canceled play. Thanks for the reply Beerman.

I would never bet a bad line.

1. 95% chance they correct it anyway.

2. if they catch you playing bad lines on a regular basis your account will be flagged and you will get treated like shit

3. If you come clean and are honest, most good books will give you a free bet for calling them on it.

My opinion: Dont do it. Call them and lettem know.
