    I know but you still would of lost had it gone to points... It wasn't a no lose bet

    Edit, maybe I'm misreading what you mean, had it gone the distance you could of argued your case with them and probably got them to refund your money, is that what you meant? I originally read it as you thinking you were going to get paid out for a winning bet no matter the result...

    Inside 10 doesn't include points, they'd have took your money imo

    It doesn't work like that, you would of lost, doubt they would of even refunded you like I suggested above as the fact it wasn't 12 as advertised wouldn't of affected that bet.

    Sky voided all there's mate so in this instance it's worked out quite well, lol.

    Yeah, had it gone the distance you would of had a fight to get a refund. There would have been an over 10 rounds prop too so by your original logic (which I can understand if reading it literally) they would of had to pay out on 2 sides of the same bet which they'd obviously never do. Only wanted to make sure you/no one else lumps on if a similar bet is available in the future, only to lose if it did go to points.

    I reckon Belgium -1 goal at EVS against us tomorrow is buying money, wouldn't surprise me to see them put 5 goals past us tbh, considering that we have to go and attack ......

    Yeah I'd definitely agree with that. 99.9% of the time they have something tucked away in the T&C's to cover themselves unfortunately. Paddies & Bet 365 are the worst for that ime. Not sure if this is still the case but in the past Bet 365 didn't pay out on a fighter winning inside the distance if it was due to a retirement and Paddies didn't pay out on a boxer winning inside a certain round/group of rounds if it was due to a technical decision. The thing is the way the market is worded you would never know unless you specifically read the rules. Takes the **** really.

    Not everyone palps all of the time. Don't be greedy.

    I think it's hit and miss when doing that, I've got one past Paddy and had a few voided there too before they waved me off. Is that a Boylesports slip?

    I think you need to keep it within your usual limits, so if you usually bet £10 on everything and then wack down £200 your less likely to get it through.

    I've taken a fair amount off bookies from the same type of ****. Apparently me putting £170 on a specific round finish wasn't suspicious enough for them to palp :?

    Managed to do Bet365 for £300 on the weekend on the Satchell fight, got it on all of 3 seconds before the market shut
