<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR> was wondering what recourse a book would have if it makes a mistake and pays out too much on a bet? <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
I believe it would be the same recourse YOU have when the book folds because of their incompetence.
Once again, humored by the Rx "Saints."

It just happened.....I bet 1550 to win a dime on the Angels (....NOT the ANGLES) to win the series vs Toronto. They lost and the book posted a $1,000 win to my account. I called them immediately. The guy I spoke to said nobody had ever done that before in all the years he was booking. It doesn't make me a saint.....and I wouldn't call it a mitzvah either. It just goes with the thing I tell my own kids, which is "Always play hard.....always play to win....always play fair." I would abso-LUTE-ly expect them to correct a mistake if it went the other way, so how can I not point it out to them in this case ?
There was once RIO credited my account with a whopping extra 5K+.
Call them up and told them about the error and got a 'thanks' from them.
Most importantly, got peace in my mind though 5K+ is very tempting. But if you take it, it gives any book a chance to screw you up if you win on your bets.
Better be honest and reap the rewards for honesty!
