England ashes

swimming in a sea · 2012-12-14 03:01:44

Is there a mistake on PP, they have England at 9/4 to retain the ashes and have them odds on to win the series, think they have gotten the prices of the two teams wrong way around. I was going to have a good bet, but I've miss read things before and felt foolish :)

I was right:) just checked paddypower again and now Australia are the 9/4 shots, max bet was 485 I was only brave enough to bet 100 euro, this is first time I've ever managed to catch a bookie mistake.

Does anybody have experience of this? can they cancel the bet on me?

They can cancel the bet if they want to, the mistake is known as a palp. You could trade the bet off for profit either way by laying the result at betfair for example. But I would be careful as they could cancel your original bet.
