I placed a futures wager today on Scottie Scheffler leading the masters after the 3rd round
Ticket #: 1606291375 - 1
Posted: 04/09 10:52 AM
Type: Future/Prop
Risking 662.50 USD to win 250.00 USD
Status: Lost
04/09 12:00 PM Golf Futures US Masters Scottie Scheffler -265 for Round 3 Leader US Masters


BetUS graded as a loss and said that the bet was for the lowest 3rd round score not being the leader after round 3.

It was -140 for him to beat his playing partner in Rd 3
How could it be -265 to beat the entire field in round 3

I thought I was laying a ridiculous -265 because he had a 3 shot lead going into the round

I called they told me I don't know anything about odds and that the industry set s the line and I should understand the line before making the bet.

I think they are full of shit. who would lay -265 and have a 1 in 52 shot of winning?

Am I wrong of did they fuck me?

Thanks for any responses

It is pretty easy, if the wager says:

"lead after 3 rounds", you won.

"best third round score", you lost.



From what you posted.........yes they "screwed you over"........you won.

whoever graded this a loser should be suspended without pay.

Ya can't have mistakes like this w/other peoples money.

on top of that there has to be a grand wizard there who knows better.

tighten up BetUS

Hi David, I got your email but won't be able to contact BETUS until I get back home on Wednesday. I'm in Vegas and all my contacts for the various books are at home.

Hopefully the grading error has been corrected by now as they get many complaints on grading mistakes.

You'd think the wording for the bet would have been more clear.

I don't understand this line.

BetUS graded as a loss and said that the bet was for the lowest 3rd round score not being the leader after round 3.

What does that mean? If that's the case wouldn't be impossible for Sheffeller to win the bet? Cameron Smith had the low score for the day. I'm assuming that's how it was graded.

The clerk you had was an asshole. Maybe ask for a supervisor but don't tell them what the call is about.

Please send me a reminder email to check on this for you. Shoot for late Wednesday afternoon otherwise your email will be in the mix of probably hundreds after being gone for 8 days.

Hello David,

First off my apologies for the back and forth you have had to endure regarding this wager. I will simply say, as someone who watches quite a bit of golf and even tries to play a little, I 100% agree with you on this one. We will look into the wording of how this prop is offered and make sure there are correlating rules posted under Golf for the future. I have credited the remaining $250 win to your account.

Thanks David,

Jeremy ( Wagering Floor Manager ) Ext.3000

That's what usually happens and glad it worked out for you.

I wouldn't want to be that $2.50 an hour clerk that talked to you yesterday. He's the one that has no clue.

Jeremy listened to the whole conversation, I'm sure. I love when people do their job this day and age. Most don't. Props to Jeremy.
