I’m wondering how Vegas sports books are gonna deal with this.
If NCAA cancels tournament. Do they have to refund every futures bet on a champion. Even if you bet on a team that’s 10-18 on the season and won’t make the tournament.
Same with NBA if cancelled and you bet on golden state to win championship I’m assuming they have to refund your bet.

solid post

shame it has gone political, but it absolutely did 3+ weeks ago
It stinks. Healthy people have less than a 1% chance of dying from it. I’m not trying to downplay how terrible it is for older folks with conditions. But by the numbers, it is just extremely overblown in my opinion. There must be at a minimum of tens of thousands of undiagnosed cases at this point in the u.s. many people will have it and recover without even knowing it. The powers that be are seizing this opportunity to throw shade on the current administration and adding to the hysteria.

probably just keep the money and collect interest until 2021 like they do with many MMA events that don't go down or get postponed

a lot of time there is fine print/conditions on the bet

Postponed I understand. But NCAA tournament may be cancelled. Kids graduate in a couple months.

I hear ya

Vegas likes interest, I would never underestimate the greed.

Those Hotels and Casinos don't build themselves yo.

IMO that is the reason they love the Future bets of fights that will never actually happen.

Hopefully they are forced to void the bets and credit back the accounts.

One out of a hundred among healthy people is a pretty high number.
