So the Ponte Preta - Vitoria match from Brazil from last night was just plain bizarre! Ponte desperately needed to points to stay up, went ahead 2-0. They then had a player sent off for putting two fingers up the bum of an opponent (or at least trying to!) and proceeded to toss the lead
The match was called off in the 87th minute, or thereabouts, with the score 2-3, following crowd trouble. All bets were voided last night but that has now been reversed and settled. A - granted - quick search gave me nothing, as to what has changed. Anyone see something? I assume, it was decided to call the score at the time as the result.
It's not that I really have a stake in it. My interest is mostly knowing how BF operates with these sort of spots for future reference. It's well within BF's rubber paragraphs of the T&Cs. Just a strange spot, as I cannot recall this happening before. Holding off for some kind of official verdict before settling, yes, but not reversing a decision.
No matter what, a bad couple of days to be in Customer Service, as I'm sure they'll have had a ton of people from the sportsbook part on their case. First, one half of the money complaining yesterday that their bets didn't pay out with the match so close to the end, and now, the other half of the money being unhappy that money paid out as void as now been pulled. Lots of sportsbook accounts in minus, I'd suspect
Just that I'd expect the price to have already or should do between now and kickoff.
