would that be voided? Should it be voided because it was announced that he is withdrawing but his odds are still up

Now if I were to pound Djokovic after it gets out that Nadal is withdrawing but before the odds adjust, it surely would be voided.
I might even get a sternly worded email...

I thought with futures, you are betting on if they win or not. He withdraws, he doesn’t win. Therefore bet graded a loser. Thought that was the consensus when this topic was discussed before.

In any case, hope that’s wrong and 5 Dimes refunds you as well. Good luck.

If you bet on RFed to win the French you don't deserve your money back. He had no shot if 100% so what would make anyone think he stood a chance if healthy

Must start first round

Any book that would grade otherwise is fucking scamming

Horse futures the only market left where this doesn’t apply

No. I lost wagers on people who withdraw before the tournament began---- and that is the rule nowadays, I would imagine at all the books

My only issue was that they left it up after it was already announced that he withdrew.

Its a top guy, not some dude that is barely in the top 100
