If it were a just a regular bet and I put my money down a week ahead of time on Pit at -4.5, and then the line fell to Pitt -3 (or whatever), would you feel justified in whining about how unfair it was that the sportsbook changed their line?

-3 is a crap line. i was hoping for -2.5 or lower to get in. -3 almost the same as -4.5

Does anybody feel that if mansion re opens the betting for this at a reduced line that the people who bet this at the higher number is unfair. Clearly, who would want the higher line with the injury now?? It almost makes sense if you haven't hedged yet and wanted to you have to bet it again thru a friend or something and then hedge the new line. I think mansion should make this promo that everybody gets the same line period.

Mansion has been more than generous with this promotion since they started it. People had days to get in on the -5 and -4.5 lines.

If the line across the books is now PIT-2.5 then thats what Mansion should put up tomorrow.

Whores sit they might wind up in sh%t....we all know how fast many bonuses change. Deal with it

im not sure i get this... doesnt the line moving to -2.5 give the promo betters a better chance of winning since pit only has to win by 2.5 points now and not the 4.5-5 we all signed up for?

The line changes only for the people who havent made the bet yet. I placed my bet when it was -5 and it will stay at 5.

I can't possibly see how an $1100 bet FOR FREE is somehow unfair.

They could make an offer of a free bet of $1100 for free but it has to be PIT -12 and I would think that would be incredibly generous.
(maybe a 15-20% chance of winning $1000...no risk of losing).


Brendan - I have no idea why anyone would think that Mansion would cancel the promo offer for those who have already placed the bets, but thanks for checking I suppose.

Mansion support is probably dreading this stupid promo because they are getting non-stop Q's of:
- does the bet still count?
- I know you guys are lying because it can't be real!
- Did I place my bet right?
- What if the line changes?
- What if neither team scores and it ends 0-0?
- What if it rains in Pittsburgh on Wednesday morning?

It's not just a matter of doing it under different names. You still need to set up NETeller accounts (or whatever you're using) for actual identities with corresponding bank accounts. It's not like making a troll account at 2+2.
