    I normally only bet football but recently started making some baseball parlays...A situation came up that doesn't happen in football and wanted some information before I contact them...

    I made a 4-team that included the o/u for the Cards game...Since the game was called in the 7th a normal o/u would be no action but they booked the whole bet as a loss...

    Shouldn't the whole bet be made no action or dropped to a 3-team parlay?...Like I said this never happens in football so I don't know how to proceed...Thanks for the info

    EDIT--I had a question about round robin bets...Like I said, I really bet football but have just been making some parlays looking to make a big score...What about round robin bets?...Are they worth it?...What are strategies about them?...I was going to do an 8-team, 6-ways for $10 ($280) total...Payout is $5600...Now I know that this would be winning them all but is it worth it or are you better off doing 4 or 5-ways...Thanks again for the help

    Not sure on this one with the O/U, usually when you bet an O/U st8 it says game must go 9 innings, I believe????? I am not sure the rules in a parlay

    It depends on the books rules. I bet at bookmaker where the rule is:
    When betting on the total runs (over/under) the game must go 9 innings (8 if the home team is ahead) to have action. Wagers on total runs will be refunded if a pitcher change occurs prior to both listed pitchers throwing at least one pitch. Rules for the run line wagers are the same as those for baseball totals.
    under this rule, it would have gotten dropped to a 3 teamer

    I called them up and was told that it was a technical oversight and that they would credit my account
