Regarding that question I posed a few days ago, I find myself still somewhat perplexed by the matter at hand. It remains quite unclear to me, particularly when one considers that we are discussing DraftKings.

I had a parlay running that included both Petković and Suarez Navaro. Well, Suarez ended up being a late scratch, and instead of just settling the bet, the sportsbook marked her odds at 1.0 and listed the reason as "postponed." It’s one of those technicalities that always seems to trip you up when you're tracking your slips.

I had a match yesterday involving Kukushkin vs. Johnson, and I’ve run into a bit of a puzzle regarding the settlement. When Kukushkin submitted his result, the odds were calculated at 1.43 as the winning coefficient, which seemed perfectly standard at first glance. However, I find myself questioning whether this was perhaps a minor oversight on their part or if there is some nuance to the calculation that I am simply overlooking. Does anyone here happen to have more insight into how they handle these specific payouts, or would you suggest that I reach out to their support team directly to seek clarification?

It’s probably just because Petković-Navarro haven't even played a single game yet.

Hey guys, quick question regarding DraftKings. I can't seem to find any option to fund my account using PayPal anywhere on the site—does anyone happen to know if that's an available method?

If you've never actually made a deposit before, they'll probably have your PayPal transactions blocked.

What's the catch? I've never actually deposited anything here.

I don’t really have a clue, I just know you can’t use PayPal for your first deposit.

Listen, folks, before you go rushing off to place any bets at a sportsbook, please, I implore you, take a moment to actually read through their terms and conditions regarding deposits and withdrawals!
I have already mentioned this at least twice in this thread, but you simply cannot use PayPal on DraftKings...
And isn't it just maddening how some sportsbooks will count a match as a loss if even a single point is played, whereas others won't settle things until the entire first set is finished?

They are insisting that the match is under investigation by an official governing body rather than their own internal department.
But I say that is absolute nonsense, because if there truly were an official investigation underway, they would certainly know more details about it!

Sounds like someone’s playing games here
But seriously, which game are we even talking about? If you don't want to say it out loud, just shoot me a DM

Why should you be required to know whether a specific match is currently under investigation? The assertion that "if I am unaware of an investigation, then one does not exist" is hardly a logically sound argument.

DraftKings has this specific rule regarding tennis where at least one full set must be completed for a bet to actually count. So, in the first scenario, the bet is void because the retirement happened during the first set... whereas in the second case, he retired during the second or third set, making the bet valid.

We’re looking at the match featuring Gille/Huang against Zekic/Zlatanovic.

The top seeds taking on the number four pair, if you can believe it!

Now, I decided to put some money down on Gille/Huang to scoop up that first set, but looking back, was that actually a smart move? It seems highly questionable to me now! Honestly, there wasn't even a hint of any suspicious scoring patterns or anything odd happening on the court, so why did I doubt them?

I was wondering if DraftKings offers any kind of welcome bonus on an initial deposit exceeding 50 bucks.

It really depends, doesn't it? From what I've gathered, they don't typically grant those to players based here in the States.

Yeah, just like usual, nothing for Americans.

Can someone help me out? How the hell do you actually get paid from BetMGM? My Visa and Mastercard both got declined, even though they work perfectly fine when I'm trying to deposit money. If anyone here has dealt with withdrawals on BetMGM before, hit me up... I'd really appreciate it.

Did you even bother verifying your account so they’d actually let you deposit?
And they'll probably just hit you with some error message when you try to withdraw your cash...

And they'll probably hit you with some error message if they won't let you pull your cash out too...

It's not an issue with the sportsbook. DraftKings pays me out just fine, but then once I try to move funds, the sportsbook claims they can't process deposits to my Chase or Wells Fargo accounts. Meanwhile, the bank has zero clue how payouts from a sportsbook work and doesn't have a single idea about their processing methods.

You can withdraw funds to a high-yield savings account if you’ve received a deposit from them within the last six months.
They don't process payouts via Mastercard.

I'm thinking about finally opening an account over at 10bet, so if anyone here actually uses them, could you weigh in on this bit from the article? I want to know how much of this is actually true:

the biggest headache seems to be their messy payment system—apparently, they hit you with all these extra user fees

Transfer fees for Moneybookers or Neteller sit at about a buck... whereas most other platforms don't even charge you for it.
