Bet was pushed because the starting pitcher has changed. This is explained in more details in our Rules page : http://www.directbet.eu/Rules.cshtmlAll "Listed" bets will be void unless both named pitchers listed start as pitchers in the first fielding innings for their respective teams. Alright, I understand that position. But my coins were not returned until after the game's outcome. I'd have put it on the Blue Jay over any Astros pitcher and the bet was with flexible odds, so I'd have taken whatever the odds were. |

That's because for such bets our automated betting system is receiving the official result from our data providers only after the game is over. The most important thing is that we follow our rules consistently, meaning that your bet would have been pushed even if the selected team lost. We do not offer action money line MLB bets i.e. bets that are live no matter if the pitchers are changed before the game or not. |

Our Baseball rules are very clear. Following is the relevant information from our rules page : All "Listed" bets will be void unless both named pitchers listed start as pitchers in the first fielding innings for their respective teams. For the named starting pitchers please refer to the Moneyline (Listed) bet. This is a standard universal rule for "Listed Pitchers" bets. For the complete rules please visit http://www.directbet.eu/Rules.cshtmlThe most important thing is that we follow our rules consistently, meaning that this bet would have been pushed even if the selected team lost the game. For those of you who don't know, Peeps Place getting is paid by our competitors to spread false and misleading information on DirectBet in an attempt to discredit us. He is once again coming here in an attempt to stir controversy. At least this time he is not doing it while hiding behind his Skipper2 account  |

If a pitcher isn't listed, then it's action for that team. Hutchinson was listed and started the game. Anyone that has made baseball bets for more than 6 months understands action and listed. You ALWAYS go by the bet slip. It was your fault for not listing the 2nd pitcher. No one knows when the change was announced since you failed to list the 2nd pitcher. A suspicious person may think that you would have counted that bet as a loss or push depending on the outcome since you didn't grade it until after the game. Vegas and offshore would all consider that wager a winner. |

In our Baseball rules page we specifically state that all "Listed" bets will be void unless both named pitchers listed start as pitchers in the first fielding innings for their respective teams. We also refer bettors to the Moneyline (Listed) bet to obtain the names of the two listed pitchers. Another indication is the word "Listed" which is written clearly in the bet slip indicating that it's a listed bet and not an action or "One Listed" bet. The most important thing is that we follow our rules consistently. We have also pushed bets on this game that would have turned to be losers had there was no change in the starting pitchers. |

I have no hard feelings regarding this bet. |

So if a bet comes in at approximately the same time that the pitching change occurs and shows up on the Don Best or Sports Options screen then the player doesn't know whether he has a bet or not until after the game because your bet slips fail to mention the pitchers. It allows you to cancel winners and accept losers after the game. You need a lot more experience and aren't following any rules. You must go by the bet slip. |

Once again, I made the bet early in the day, yesterday. The Astros changed their listed pitcher (I just looked it up) a couple hours before game time, AFTER I made the bet. I was not aware of the rule, nevertheless, the rule clearly states that if a listed pitcher changes before game time, it will 'Push' the bet...win or lose. I am now aware of this rule and have absolutely no hard feelings with the outcome. |

What DirectBet is doing is unacceptable when he fails to abide by bet slips. Once again, I made the bet early in the day, yesterday.

I am now aware of this rule and have absolutely no hard feelings with the outcome. tins- I'm glad that everything was fine in your situation. The point that I'm making with DirectBet is there will be times when bets are placed near the same time that pitching changes are announced and he will then be able to decide after the game whether the bet is good or not. |

So if a bet comes in at approximately the same time that the pitching change occurs and shows up on the Don Best or Sports Options screen then the player doesn't know whether he has a bet or not until after the game because your bet slips fail to mention the pitchers. It allows you to cancel winners and accept losers after the game. When you order the bet, you know who are the starting pitchers as they are displayed when you order the bet. Now if there is a change in the starting pitchers then you know your bet will be pushed regardless of the game result. Technically we only send out the refunds after the game is over, but you already know before the game even started that the bet will be pushed. It allows you to cancel winners and accept losers after the game. That's not technically possible because you already know before the start of the game whether your bet is live or push. For those of you who don't know, Peeps Place is getting paid by our competitors to spread false and misleading information on DirectBet in an attempt to discredit us.
Peeps Place is running a disguised paid advertisement which he calls a "Sportbooks Ratings Guide". Ratings are paid for and the guide is sponsored by the 3 books that are rated on top.
If you go to www.PeepsPlace.com you will see that there are currently 3 Bitcoin Sportbooks that pay for banners and these books are also the top 3 rated books in his "ratings guide". This is not a coincidence as we've already proved :
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=393147.msg7714802#msg7714802
Do you think that Peeps Place has the creditability to rate Bitcoin Sportbooks, given that those he rates the highest are paying him to advertise and promote them ?
Please take a moment to vote in the poll at the top of this thread. Hopefully there would be enough votes to convince him to stop this unethical practice. |

Technically we only send out the refunds after the game is over, but you already know before the game even started that the bet will be pushed There's no record of both pitchers on the bet slips. The only way to settle disputes is by looking at the bet slip. Instead of being receptive to problems that you are having you are making false allegations. You don't see what you are doing as a problem with not listing both pitchers on the bet slip and then saying that both pitchers must start? |
