Unluckly my 90% amount was on sbo...
I'm worried about the future, I really don't know if they will repeat this behavior.

Thanks for brining it to my attention by the way, I never would have noticed it myself without this thread.

No problem, let's hope we are not going to lose fair Sbobet.

This is worrying indeed. Did you guys contact them quoting the odds on IBC, Maxbet, Pinnacle? If so, what did they say?

Maybe even point them to this thread and let's see what they have to say about it... in case they even care at all...

We bet through Asianconnect and they can't do anything about it, even asking reason to Sbobet.

ac: "We are sorry sbo decide to void your bets, and we can't do anything here."
me: Ok, thank you. Same odds @ ibc: not voided on 2 different matches
ac: "It's a different bookie, every bookie has different rules."

That's all...

I really don't know what's happening with Sbobet.
Voiding bets like this sounds very strange, but even more frightening - The least we could expect is an explanation? Nothing for any of these 3? The last thing we want is to be afraid of getting bets voided. Does this ever happend when a bet lose? (I have never experienced it). It's corrupt.

It seems like everyone has lower odds on SBOBet when logged in - At least we get the best odds through agents... but I don't like reading all this voiding stuff.

Never happened in almost 10 years...I was in chat with Sbobet explaining the situation (betting via agent) and they spoke about "abnormal bets" so that they weren't even wrong lines.
Wrong lines=objective issue, it's ok to void and it's normal we have not to take them.
Abnormal bets=discretional issue...no logic at all, very dangerous for us.
Sbobet doesn't have always better odds than the other asians but in this case Sbo odds were lower than exchange...and they voided (2-3 days later - but before the match).

I do agree with you a little bit, but even wrong lines - As long as they're not VERY wrong (If you had like 1-3% it's not very wrong), I can't see how they are allowed to void bets. Yes, they have their rules, but it's still not fair at all. And it also give them the chance to use it against sharp players - But of course just by "freerolling" the bets against them - Criminal in my eyes.

Btw: "Abnormal"... all bets that are sharp could be "abnormal" since just a minority of the players are able to find these. If they're allowed to use this argument they can simply do whatever they want.

Extremely frustrating to hear this - And when you got 3 voided bets in a few days it can't be a coincidence.

As I wrote before, I get 0/2 void per year because pulp so i don't like to take risks.
Sbobet behavior is abnormal, not the bets we placed :)

Sbobet lowered limits and now this. Still not the end but i think this is going in a wrong direction. Maybe syndicates and bots have hit them hard and they still do not have a fight back strategy.

In the past I was scared a couple of times by some Pinnacle voids because of suspicious movements on Greek basket or minor leagues matches (voided after the end of the matches, if I remember good) but I keep trusting in Pinnacle, maybe those matches were fixed for real.
The case of Sbobet is different, it really seems to have voided bets for no valid reason.
And I agree they lose money and cut odds and limits.

SBObet's volumes are down 75% during these last months. It seems that a lot of sharp action was there.

They are scammers.
They have inflated prices if you don't register, but as soon as you register, suddenly (for a long time now) they are lowered.
Today for the Uruguay Peru match, I wanted to bet Peru winning Asian handicap +0.5 @ 2.26 which as soon as I enter the site, lowers @ 2.23
At this point I did not make my bet and I wrote an email with which I do not approve of this dishonest practice and that I would have made the bet even at a lower price from more honest bookmakers
