    Default Cancelling a bet

    OK, I place all my bets at B&M (I know I should do it online, less juice...) Anyways I was wondering if anyone knew the policy on cancelling a bet, say one Monday you took PHI -6/-120 but it moved to PHI -5/-110 on Friday (totally hypothetical) what is the policy of returning to the casino, cashing in the ticket, and taking the new line? I always believe you could get your money back if the game had yet to begin, is this true?

    Like, never. If you find a better line you're fucked! Usually why I wait until day of/day before game to let the lines settle.

    Wow. That would um, never happen.

    You take the line you get WHEN you get it. Somestimes it's worse than the later line, and sometimes (hopefully usually) it's better than the later line.

    Nope, Im a noob.

    You know, I just wasn't sure if you could get a refund on a bet or not. I honestly don't think it was that ridiculous of a question.

    Sorry to sound like an ass earlier.

    It's a legitimate question: the answer is no. You're locked into whatever you got when you bet.

    Ehh, for some reason I really thought you could take a bet back, how about in futures betting, you're locked in there too?
