Exactly, why bother posting up the 1/2 pts.
Looks like they paid me $312.50 (winning amount), but not my $250 wager.

Thanks Jacks. I really could care less about the money. Just the point of it, in my opinion they graded this wrong..:toast:

Rules is rules boys?it clearly states what happens in Deucers situation, outside of declaring ?Olympic? which we addressed this fairly. This is being looked at for all the above reasons, but we are not going to go retroactively apply a change to the rule. So until that happens this should be technical graded as a loss. As I said ,we gave you the benefit of the doubt, we were going to refund your wager but gave you the greater amount of which is your win. Let?s not get out of hand here?.it?s a loss!
I understand your points on the .5 line, and I guess in all fairness maybe books are little slower adapting to changing hockey rules. It?s not really a top betting sport. Again I looked around and asked around and this seem to be the norm without similar complaints.
I am still interested in seeing what other books you are talking about?Sounds like it could be valuable information for all hockey bettors, especially with a likely OT match between Canada and the US tomorrow.

Hi James,
Thanks for your help resolving this issue, but
why was there a +.5 listed if the +.5 does not come into play?
The way you have it posted now for the final 2 Olympic games is the correct way to list a hockey game that is graded based on the final score. As per Broburysports site below:
Team Money Line Total
02/27/10 155 Slovakia
+115 OFF Over 5
22:05 ET 156 Finland
-135 OFF Under 5
02/28/10 157 Canada
-210 OFF Over 5.5 (-125)
15:20 ET 158 USA
+175 OFF Under 5.5 (+105)
This is now correct.....

asinine rules to stiff a player, even though you say you understand his complaint on the 0.5 rules
as he stated earlier, 2 other books grades his wager as win
time to get with the times
based on the way you graded this wager, theres a good chance you guys don't understand what asinine means (devoid of intelligence)
yep....I thought they paid deucer.....turns out they just refunded his money.
They offered a REGULATION line, and didn't pay on the REGULATION line.
+0.5 and -0.5 can only be for regulation.
A 7 year old could figure that out.
I myself would never ever play there, but hey at least they refunded deucers money. BUT THEY SHOULD HAVE PAID HIM.
As for other books that offer regulation lines there are a TON OF EM (I know of 12 myself). I find it funny that Mr. Woodley can't understand that his book offered a REGULATION line and he can't figure out what the problem is. His booked offered no rules for REGULATION lines, yet Brodbury offered a REGULATION line and not only didn't pay deucer but tried to make it sound that they "were doing deucer a favour":mj07:
deucer you got screwed big time, take your money out and never play there again.
A book offers a REGULATION line and then doesn't pay on REGULATION. Now that is pathetic.:nono:
So I'll say this again.....if you offer plus a half goal and minus half goal on Olympic hockey (and NHL for that matter) it can ONLY BE FOR REGULATION time. Why is that so difficult to figure out:shrug:
Bottom line, you offered odds on REGULATION TIME and didn't pay deucer......now that is just plain wrong.
And deucer, you are taking this very very well.

As for "RULES ARE RULES"......
YOU OFFERED A REGULATION LINE and had no rules for REGULATION LINES.
For the life of me I can't understand why this is so difficult to comprehend? plus a half goal and minus a half goal can only apply to REGULATION. Why is this so difficult to understand.
The mistake lies with Brodbury offerring plus and minus a half goal. It is as simple as that. Brodbury screwed up and there is no other way around it. Mistakes happen and that's fine, but they way deucer's situation was handled is comical.
Also funny that "they refunded deucer's money"....gee I am sure winning wagers that don't get paid are a good thingkurby
I wish Jack didn't edit the title of this post, it deserves to go back to its original title.
Crap like this pisses me off, hard enough to win in gambling, but when books screw you it makes it even tougher.
And yes....deucer got screwed

WHAT ARE YOU DOING BROBURY??
Pay the man his winnings.
You should explain how in the hell he could have won with the +.5 line if you are going to post it.
It was your site that screwed the pooch on this one not the player.
Either your sites rules are wrong or your line was wrong on this playick one either way it was your sites fault and the player gets punished.
BAD MARKETING NOT TO PAY THIS GUY WHEN EVERY HOCKEY GAMBLER WILL TELL YOU THAT IS A WINNER!!!
You need to pay this man in full.
Good grief what a terrible book if they stiff him.

Wow Kick... You seem more pissed off about this then I am.:box2:
Thanks for the support bro's, I learned my lesson.
Now let's concentrate on picking winners.
Best of luck to all.....:toast:
yep.....hate when books screw ya over.......good to see ya got support on here.
And kegray is right.....horrible marketing by Brodbury....this post alone will cause many never to deposit with em.....
bad move by Brodbury...very bad.

be VERY CAREFUL NEVER to EVER use the casino here.....just lost $350 playing $10/hand in abbout 10 minutes.....I've NEVER seen so many 10's and Aces for the dealers show card in my life.....VERY CROOKED casino software.....
That happens anywhere. That's why you don't play online BJ.
But I obviously agree with kick and Deucer here. Like I said in my earlier post, there's no way the 0.5 line could even come into play. And now I learn that you only "refund" the wager. Wow. Poor poor poor. I'm sure this isnt the publicity you are looking for Brobury. Is a couple hundred dollar really that important to you? wow. just wow
Dude, fuking relax. This case isn't closed, it's still being looked at and you're bitching to a guy that is simply doing his job and following the rules that are posted on the website. The rules are clearly posted, whether right or wrong, that is the rules he made his bet under.
Like I said, they are still looking at this error and I'm sure will do the right thing. All I have heard about this book is the excellent customer they have so give them a chance before you convict and hang them. CHRIST!
I don't know how I missed all this fun yesterday :mj07:
And the casino? Gimme a break. They'll all fuk you, even the live ones in Vegas, so keep on donating.

settled!
settled!
Duecer has been paid fully. Enough attention has been brought to this now, time to move on. We will sort out the rules to be clearer. Agreed ppabart, certainly not the publicity we need over a few dollars, and TBH could have been handled better earlier, this thing picked up momentum quickly. A better post for you hockey bettors would not be focused so much on Brobury as it should be with all books with .5 lines in hockey?which most have, while having the same rules as Brobury. To add, most would not have even blinked at this.
Enjoy the game today gentlemen!
