MLB World Series

Astros and Whitesox! Stage is set.

This one is over. I figured the Astros would win game 3 with Oswalt on the hill, then lose in 5 when a not healthy Clemens tries to pitch. Hell, this might end up a sweep.

That being said, it was a good night to be working all night. Got to listen to the whole game

B, you can keep updating the odds on the options as the series plays out. So (for example), if you set the sox to 1:10 and astros to 10:1 it would affect bets from this point on, but leave the previously placed bets at the previous odds.

Not sure if it's worth the trouble, but it's a way to keep things fair between people that bet before the series and people that might wait till today to bet.

DOH! I didn't know that. I was just closing bets early with the odds they had at the time. I'd just update and keep the event open from now on and adjust the odds as they change.

Thanks!

Also, if you have multiple bet options on the same event and want to "close" one of them, you can update to 65,536:1 odds on that bet to effectively close it.
