Within a couple of hours a 1.02 version will be uploaded that fixes some bugs and also adds the ability to edit the closing date of the wager.

Sportsbook 1.8.2 now live. Only noticeable change is the ability to edit the close date of the wager.

Is there a way to abandon open bets before they expire?

If you go to event, do you have option to delete it ? If not, tell me what you want removed and I can do for you.

It's not a big deal....have all my vcash tied up in a bet no one will take but it expires in two hours anyway. Was just curious if abandon was an option. I'll go check for delete option.

Let me know if you can't. It's two clicks for me if you need it

Delete worked but seems you can do that with any bet that isn't settled yet......is there potential for sore losers to back out if they know they are going to lose??

Anyone want the braves plus two runs vs the giants today for $100?

Interesting. I'd have to look at lineups. Common sense tells me not to take less than three runs though.

If I had another 100 I'd do it again but I'm now all In.....looked up the odds with the handicap and makes it about 50/50

I just saw this setting that we can edit.

When a challenger withdraws from a bet, this is the penalty percentage that is taken from the returned stake... ie, if the stake was $100 and the percentage penalty is 50%, then the challenger only gets $50 back (the rest is either banked or given to the Bet owner).

Want to change the penalty %?

 

[HammerDown]

I just doubled the "poor" amount from $100 to $200. If you get tapped, you'll now get $200.

@gobigred Good with that?

 

[tabascojet]

Personally I like to see no withdraws allowed once bet is accepted.....like how the vbookie normal bets are. Once your money is in.....mistake or not you live with it.

My only concern was if someone losing a bet in progress could delete the bet rather than pay out. When I deleted a bet earlier that no one was accepting g I noticed that it said all stakes would be returned if it was before the bet waS settled.
