Re: Betjamaica Dispute
The racebook software does not have a no duplicates feature, that is not an issue here. In fact, the racebook has a $1000 limit on some major tracks, but the software does not allow a $1000 bet, but instead you must make 2 $500 "dupe" bets.
But I know what you mean, Santo....you mean the racebook software, unlike the sportsbook software, might not have the ability to restrict a player, like oscark, from making 2 "dupe" bets. If that is true, then they SHOULD have that feature in the racebook software. I do know for a fact that their racebook software was updated just last year, as opposed to their sportsbook software which is much older.
Which brings up another issue....their sportsbook software has an interesting feature. Try parlaying 2 teams, one at -110 and one at -105...if you bet $110 and win the first game, you would have $210, which parlayed with the -105 team, should result in a net win of $300....but I just checked again, and it pays $294 instead. Now that just happens to be an easy parlay payoff to figure out but it is the same with every negative odds parlay(interestingly, they don't do it on +odds parlays, probably because these are so easy for anyone to figure out what the correct payoff should be), ie. they cheat you just a little bit on the payoff, because then can. No one has complained to them about it...save for me. I've complained to Scotty for 5 years about this and to his credit he said he would make sure that I got paid the correct amount, $300 if I bet any such parlays. But that is not the point with me...I just want them to do the right thing and correct it. So far they haven't; Scotty says it's Spiro's fault; I don't know, but I do know that they haven't corrected it....yet!
It may be an oversight, it's more likely that their horse software is made by different people than their sports software, and doesn't have a no duplicates feature.
