Title: Portsmouth fold, what happens to my bet? Post by: Legionnaire on February 22, 2010, 02:18:48 AM I had £200 @7/2 on Portsmouth to be relegated back in June. If the High Court rules against the club next Monday and they go out of business is my bet void, or do i get paid? I've spoken to a couple of bookie managers in this city and they don't seem very sure!
Naturally i wouldn't want any club to go out of business, whatever the bookmakers decide about my bet. Title: Re: Portsmouth fold, what happens to my bet? Post by: gatso on February 22, 2010, 02:26:39 AM can't imagine any bookie paying you as they wouldn't have been relegated. they could use this argument to settle as a losing bet but surely the sensible answer is to void it

If your that worried, why not lay off on betfair now, you could lock up all but £40/£50. cos that would get voided too? Title: Re: Portsmouth fold, what happens to my bet?

Not if you cash out! Title: Re: Portsmouth fold, what happens to my bet? Post by: ACE2M on February 22, 2010, 01:13:52 PM i expect most large bookies will payout as a gesture. Only 2 go down if they do so its not like they will have to pay out on 4 instead of 3.
