Burned on the Oakland boaston game tonight. Not in the rules, but it gave me the push. Had the over 8.5. And it was. 13 0. When they called the game in the 7th
THAT'S because this site considers a MLB game incomplete if all nine innings aren't played, even though a game becomes official after 5 1/2 innings. You should have all the clowns that don't agree with me, explain to you, why this site's rules should make sense to an educated man.

We made a pick and the game got cancelled, big deal. Had I read the rules I probably would have stayed away from the game due to possible weather issues. Treat this for what it is meant to be, fun. If you win a prize great if not oh well. Lighten up man, life is too short to be wound up all the time.

I had the braves game cancelled the first day as well. The rules though have always been the same and you knew that. You took the risk. I took the risk. Oh well. And your acting as if the game had been played you were guranteed to win it. Not true.

MOVE to New Jersey and maybe you'll understand why........ I live in what society calls the " The Rat Race " between New York City and Philadelphia, not on a farm with a cornfield.

I think you should be allowed to pick another game if yours is postponed. However, this does not pertain to the total on this Boston / Oakland game. Vegas rules on any action that does not go a
full game of at least 8.5 innings is that the totals bet is considered no action and therefore a push.

YOU are correct about the over/under bets at a sportsbook, I just don't understand why the pick on a postponed MLB game doesn't just carry over to the next day, if the game is being made-up as a doubleheader like the Mia/Min & Atl/Col games were earlier this week........

IT was played, the next day and Minnesota won guaranteed, the first game of the doubleheader. True.

Those 2 pushes on the first day really did mess me up... If I remember correctly, the Braves and Twins both won the first game of the doubleheader the next day... I have 27 wins right now, should have 29 with only 2 wins behind the leader... Oh well... Still plenty of time to catch up as I'm still ranked in the top 50...

Games being made up the next day is not the same thing. Look at a guy like Josh Hamilton whose numbers were so different during the day and at night. And alot of pitchers suck during the day games compared to night. You can't say well Mike Minor pitched well at Coors during the day in the coldest game ever played, would have been the same if he had pitched the night before when the ball would have been carrying more at Coors. I know what your saying, but still. It's a different day. Managers can change lineups. What if the braves sat Upton and McCaan for rest in the first game of that doubleheader, compared to the night before when they both would have played for sure? And lets say they braves lost. You would have said, that game shouldn't have counted because I counted on the braves 2 best bats being in there. And it does happen. They sat both just the other day. I know McCaan was hurt back during that COL game I believe, but in just making the point.

THANKS for the challenge, I'll see you at the finish line. My top two final ranks are 20th and 68th and my worst two are 947th and 658th, which means, I know you are not too smart being a referee, but I have finished in the top 1000 in ALL 10 races, I don't think too many people can say that.
Good run classof78. Came close to me having to pony up a prize to you.

Good run Classof78. Came close to me having to pony up a prize to you HAD one really bad week or you would be, lol. Now give me a win for the postponed game the first day (ALL of which should be carry-overs) that they won the next day and I'm in the money, and if this was a normal race, it would have been 200 wins, not 100 and I probably would waiting for a check to come in the mail. My only point is, it's not a level playing field if you don't get another pick or if it doesn't become a carry-over for a postponement. P.S. OH, by the way what was your final rank ?

I've done that before, made 3 picks and sat on a game and missed picking it............GL next time maybe we should have a penny a rank differential contest,
