Just wanted to share this story and see if anyone has ever had such a incident.
Im here in AC. I came for the weekend for nfl action (and to cash in my Clemson +5.5 $9550 ticket)
well, I came here with the intentions of just screwing around till Sunday with no major action (I’ve lost a few hundred at the BJ table). Although, this magic and the nets game intrigued me and I just couldn’t stay away. So right before tip off, I run up to the window with $1340 and said “give me magic moneyline”. Well, this ditz asked me to confirm (there’s a little digital screen to confirm your bet) and she had me Orlando magic, taking the points for the first half. I told her no, you have it wrong, I want Orlando for the game “but I’ll take this as a sign from the gambling gods to take Orlando first half instead, go ahead and give it to me”. So she smiled, laughs and told me ok but she’d have to cap it at $1220 since it was live action..we exchanged a few friendly words, I grabbed my ticket and was on my way to the room. Well, mid second quarter (this is a second half bet, mind you) magic are up by like 16... so I start making my way to the sport book to cash in and as I’m walking I glance at my ticket and my heart sinks. This ditz not only had accidentally put me down for a first half bet instead of the game, but the second go around she screwed up majorly and gave me the nets 1st half. So I literally end up with the opposite bet I initially asked for. I wanted Orlando and the game and I end up leaving the book with a bet on nets on the half. Needless to say, I was furious.
I went to the “acting manager” and told them to play back the audio, I never once said the word “nets” or “Brooklyn “ . He said unfortunately, no audio. I told him Your girl screwed up twice ina row. She’s totally incompetent. I caught the first screw up but the first time but unfortunately the second was NOT caught and I didn’t bother to look at the ticket because we had a full blow conversation about the damn bet. So, long story short, he disappears for a long time with my ticket.... goes to the back and he tells me to check my tickets next time and he instructs the assistant manager to refund me!
I was indeed flabbergasted. I’ve never heard of this happening and the assistant manager agreed and said I’m EXTREMELY LUCKY and WOW.
With that being said, check your tickets at draft kings AC, their staff kind of sucks, they don’t give Comp drinks, they even attempted to charge me for water today. But I will say, they got it right at the end and I’m glad their management did this as I thought I had a 0% chance of getting a refund and I just wanted to make sure they were aware of this BS because I suppose I should’ve looked at my ticket... my bet would’ve been a easy winner, mind you but “a push is a win” in this instance
anyways, saints big this weekend-free money-bet the house (same as I said last weekend) waiting for the line to drop some more, I know as the squares continue to roll into town, more money will be poured on LA $$$$
Leaning towards Brady and the points on the second game but I may just lay off until the second half or until I see a line that I love for “in game action”.
