I put in a bet on the wrong game

[Pickman Jones]

did something today I have never done. I bet the wrong game. In NCAA basketball I bet #539 Monmouth +19.0 and I didn't mean to. I was betting my games this morning and was looking at my number and betting games and bet that side by accident. I bet college basketball games by lines off from what I make like most sports. I made West Virginia -21 so I should not have bet this game. I clicked wrong game and it won. I was showing my uncle my bets today and he noticed it and said that games not to off. I looked and said no that was a mess up. I`ll take the win but I didn't mean to.

One day the Packers/Cowgirls played and the total was 47-ish. I loved OVER so I bet it. Score was around 3-0 at half and I am kicking myself but at least I was gonna lose without any bad beat or sweating. I wrote it off and went about my business. Come back a few minutes later to see how all other bets did. I see I have more money in my account than I should have...........because I bet the Packers/Cowgirls game UNDER - by mistake. Sometimes.....................

If you’re using a sportsbook App with “in-play” and “early cash out” features you can correct these mistakes quickly and easily.
You can almost always cash out at any time to either cut your losses or lock in a guaranteed win before the game ends.

You can also program the app to automatically cash out a percentage of your stake if you reach an early cash out value from any bets,
just like the stock market.

Betting Apps can be like crack for action junkies.

When I start with a new book, I am more likely to make mistakes. My new book this year is Youwager. Confusing site, especially after a few beers.

I though about trying to get out on in-play but I said its a mistake I havnt made so I let it go. I learn from them so I wont do it again.

I know what I did here and it come down to as simple as looking at my sheet with my numbers and looking at the screen. sound silly but that's what it was. I was looking at my numbers again last night and saw it was the game next to it that got me. worst thing is I mentioned this game on my daily bets I record and would have been more upset if someone followed it and lost because of a silly mistake.

The game is hard enough without making mistakes placing a wager.

Of course, if you're 49% handicapper, you might want to make more mistakes.
