As somebody else mentioned, unless you are a heavy player that loses far more than wins, your local will screw you no matter what side you have. That is a guarantee.

According to the rules I have seen, you should have a win with SF +1.5 runs on the runline. But like ferdville said, a local book will make their own rulings on plays like that. Good luck tonight!!

If your local (or when!) gives you a loss on this one, make a note so if this happens again, you can make a case for having him resolve it the same way. But he would probably only tell you that in response to the previous problem, they have changed their policy (to screw everybody) again. Playing with a local has its advantages, mainly credit, but you normally take it in the shorts whenever thay can stick you.

My local is actually pretty cool about things like these, so I wouldn't be surprised if he paid up. I've been with him for a good while, so he knows I'm a stand up guy and vice versa. Not to mention, he doesn't have that many players.

He pretty much goes by the rules the online books use regarding these situations, so if I could find something in writing stating an online book would pay it in this situation, I'm sure he'd have no problem paying it. Hell, I probably wouldn't need something like that anyway, It would just make me feel better about asking. If anybody knows where I could fing such information I certainly would appreciate it.

Thanks for all of the feedback.

Just a follow up note, called the local up and asked him how last night's game is figured and he said...and I quote...

"You won dude, that's where the +1.5 comes into play."

However it comes...I'll take it.
