So, I just started seeing these so called "mythical matchups" on Bovada, pretty much matching up teams that are not actually playing each other, like NBA tomorrow, Spurs vs Magic, Raptors vs Celtics etc?  Anythoughts on these, Is this normal, or something brand new?

Yeah, thanks for the info.  I'm new to the game, just didn't realize how shady it can be, also never even heard of a bad line until they stole my money .... haha!  I'm gonna check other places, but thanks for all the input all!!!!

Hey there, first off, my buddy suggested Bovada years ago, but over the last few months I've gotten back into betting, so I went back to the one I already had an account created from years ago.  Never thought I would have bets cancelled, or that a line could even be "left up in error".  I just figured the site would eat their cost if it was their error.  And yes, I was watching closely to live game lines, and placing bets with under 4 mins left in live games, that is how the $600 bet got cancelled, but nothing seemed "to good to be true", the teams just didn't score much in the last 4 mins, but even if they made a "line error", sure sucks when it cost me a $600 win on an already wayyyyy down day, didn't seem fair or legit.  Sure be nice if they cancel one of my "losses" ..... haha, never, right?  I'm just looking for a better option, I keep reading many shady stories on Bovada, so any advice you have ..... I'll take it, and thanks everyone!!!

You are so right, I spoke to them numerous times asking why the have only cancelled the "bets I win", why have none of the "losses" ever been cancelled, very very shady system they have going on, and it seems they are allowed to do whatever they want because all players blindly agree to the "user terms", so they have an easy out with scams

This was the message they sent me after I won $600, and they took it away -

"Sports Team letting you know that your Wager 1903977467094 has been settled as 'No Action' as the line was left up too long in error. 

Yes, yesterday, I kept getting the "oops" thing, and I placed a parlay bet for 3 "over" NBA games, and today it shows that I placed all 3 for "under" ..... something weird going on.  I might try 5 Dimes, is everyone here using the Bitcoin thing?

So, I've been betting on Bovada, some of the "live" betting etc.  Three times now they have cancelled my winning bet as a "no contest" claiming they "left the line up to long", or there was an "error" in the "line being left up to long"?  Is this a bunch of B.S. or what?  Is there a better more trustworthy betting site?  Need some advice or something.  Thanks

Ok, today I had a bet on bovada that I thought I won by 0.5 on an under bet, the final score after 4 quarters was 96 to 63, but then the game went into some sore of overtime period, even with a 30 + point lead, and now bovada has me as a loss due to the weird overtime points.  Anybody ever heard of this before?  This was the game, Hapoel Holon @ TLI-Alba Fehervar , please help???????????????
