This is some major Bullshit!!!!

I know i am relatively new to sports betting, so maybe someone can just tell me I am an idiot.

At WWTS, if you place a parlay at their listed odds of +160 for team A and -115 for Team B, then you get totally different odds in the calculation, but throughout the entire betting process they list the correct odds of +160 and -115. The payout should have been 386.00. its exactly 386 because they also keep any extra change.

However, the payout that you will actually get is 358.00. Nowhere on the site is there a discussion about the odds changing in a parlay. I called WWTS and asked them why the payout was incorrect. They didnt know. They said maybe there was a pitching change. I said no, there is no pitching change. Eventually they gave me to another manager. She said that what happens in a parlay is that they round, to thier favor to the nearest 10 odds. When I said that the first part of the odds was already at 160, the nearest 10, she said in that case, they round a full 10 points in their favor.

So in this example, the odds went from -115 to -120 and +160 to +150 without any notice whatsoever, even while listing the odds at -115 and +160 on the screen.

When I asked where this policy was written or notified to the bettor, the manager said it isnt. I said you cant just change the odds on the bettor without letting them know, and she literally said, "we can do anything we want"

Maybe I really am an idiot, but that is not cool in any way. If they have different odds when it is a parlay, they should tell you. That significantly changes your betting decision when shopping the odds at these online places.

Mad Jack, along with taking the extra change on every single bet, This policy of changing the odds as they go along, by no discernible criteria, is simply a shameful way to conduct Business. I hope you can help in some way. I switched from my last lousy sportsbook, Hollywood, to WWTS simply because they were advertised here.

I wonder how many other people never noticed this because calculating parlay odds can be a true bore sometimes.

Geez..........that's a joke......you shouldn't put up with that!

I wouldn't use that book anymore if I were you.....that's just terrible......talk about getting hosed!


SportsInteraction (also advertised here) is great for parlays...go there! They get right down to the decimal! For example if you have a $2.00 play as well as a $2.05 play...the parlay is $4.10


Hope this helps ya!

Bullshit is what that is!!!!!!

I was with WWTS for awhile. They have great software, I love the easy navigation.

But I left due to policies such as this one. It alos pisses me off that they keep all the change! It not like we standing at a counter where they're having to give out the coins. ITS ALL ON COMPUTER!! ITS TOTALLY DONE TO INCREASE THE PROFIT!

There odds are usually very poor too.

Theyre big and they think they can get away with anything!

AVOID WWTS!!!!!!:moon: :thefinger

AS WE ALL CHOSE SOMEONE ELSE, THEY WILL EVENTUALLY GET THE MESSEGE, IN THEIR WALLET!

Prongo,
Thanks for the heads-up about WWTS. Obviously no one should ever put up with the BS they were trying to pull over on you! :nono: Was thinking about books I could consider opening a new account with. And after hearing about tactics like this, they won't be getting one second of my time or one penny of my money. Also no reason to allow any book to just round the "spare change" down -- clearly in their favor -- either.

I've had problems with WWTS myself. Bailed on that outfit REAL quick!! Gameday is VERY good for parlay's and RR's. No rounding off either. Also, quick payouts.


:thefinger WWTS and their attitude.

personally, i like wwts very much, but maybe it's not for the smaller player. i bet increments of 300, 500 and 1000 and never ran into the "rounding off of change" problem. as far as getting paid, there's hardly a book out there that will get your money to you faster than wwts.

some books cater to the big player and some cater to the smaller player. if you have questions about any of our advertisers, shoot me an email or post on here and i'll try my best to direct you to a book that's best for you.

try to support our advertisers because they are responsible for this site being here. they pay the bills. we have an assortment of books that fit everybodys' playing habits and THEY ALL PAY!

thanks,

Jack

Yeah, but if you're a big player, they profile you and shave points. I used to be on the phone with WWTS at the same time as a buddy, and there'd be a point-and-a-half difference in the stated lines. If your desired wager goes opposite of your profile, you may find that the line "has moved" in the space of ten seconds.
