Hi there, i rarely post but just wanted to get some thoughts on this. On the Poker Stars Sportsbook, they have the Gary Anderson match tonight priced up as Anderson 1/10 to win the match. In the only other available market, they have Anderson as 1.6 to win +1 (essentially win the match as you have to win by 2 clear legs) - i think i have this right, can someone clear it up? They have also made the same mistake for the James Wade game, sorry i can't provide screenshots but just wanted to make sure this was right before having a good bet. Also, are they obligated to pay at the price advertised? Thanks

I have no opinion or knowledge on the price, but no, they are not obligated to pay up if it can reasonably be deemed a palp.

I'd say it is an obvious mistake, but you'd probably get away with it if you bet small and didn't post it.

Is a "plop" a deliberate palp to try and sort out the wiseguys?

That's the thing with palps, they are completely freerolling you.

If you win, you don't get paid (or get paid at correct odds) and your account gets restricted.

If you lose, you lose.

Heads they win, tails you lose.
