My bet has been voided by SKYBET

[rjj tszyu]

I had £1000 on Haye to stop Chisora at weekend @ 15/8. They have voided my bet due to the change in rounds but listen to this the price for Haye to win by KO is now 11/10 and there are less rounds to do it. Sky are arseholes. Paddy Power have not done this to me yet as I've had an extra £250 with them but only at 6/4. I'm very disappointed.

Surely they would have gave you the option of letting the bet stand? Did you email them?

Paddy Power currently have no method of victory odds listed

No I'm assuming that Paddy Power are currently recalculating their odds. I'll show you the e mail I recieved fvrom Sky. I saw this and checked my account and it had already been refunded.

Service Announcement: David Haye v Dereck Chisora
We write with reference to the David Haye v Dereck Chisora bout.

Due to a late decision by the governing bodies, the forthcoming bout between David Haye and Dereck Chisora has been changed from a scheduled 12 round bout, to a scheduled 10 round bout. With a change of circumstances, this unfortunately affects bets in a number of ways depending on the market.

Bets on the Fight Outright Market and Fight Specials (early knockdown etc) will stand as placed.

All bets placed on Round Betting (including Either Fighter, Group Betting and Fight Handicap), Fight Outcome, Exact Method of Victory and Under/Over Round Betting, will be made void as per our rules for Boxing.

"If the scheduled number of rounds for a fight differs to the number of rounds the fight was priced up with then all bets will be void on Round Betting, Fight Outcome and Under/Over Round betting. Bets will stand on the Fight Outright."

Due to the volume of bets affected for such a high profile fight, and in the interest of fairness to all customers, all affected bets have been made void immediately.

Please note, for Multiple Bets, your overall stake will still stand, with the relevant selection from this bout settled as void. For instance, a double on Manchester City to win the Premier League, and Haye to win in Round 4 would be settled as a single bet on Manchester City.

A new market is already available on the Sky Bet website and on mobile. This can be found here.

We would like to apologise for the inconvenience caused by circumstances outside our control.

To be honest, I can see most people in your position wanting the bet void. It's unlucky for you that you were prepared to let it stand because the KO odds have hardly changed since the 10 rounds were announced.

You could try and tell them you're prepard for your bet to stand but they'll probably just send that bet voided rule back - especially now they are 11/10 and you have 15/8

Not that I think Haye will get beyond 10 anyway but what a rip off for those buying tickets and for everyone who was looking forward to this bout!

We may have just been robbed of 2 great rounds...

I bet Haye is behind shortening it

Iv seen the press conference and david has the quiet wobbly voice on. He can say Chisora is out of shape all he wants but hes seen him look fat and fight hard for 12 rounds against the biggest and best in the division, whereas Haye knows he looked like a model going in to his fight with Wlad and fought like a sack of spuds. He can see Chisora looks in better shape than usual.

So why has it been shortened?

Non title fight?

The odds or the fight?

The odds have shortened due to the amount of people betting on a Haye KO.

Warren said last night that the WBA and WBO decided to make it a 10 rounder!

[rjj tszyu]

Paddy power have just put their prices back up and Haye to win by KO has shrunk again despite the fact there are now less rounds. I got 6/4 yesterday and now it's 5/4. There must be some money going on the obvious result!

Betfair is 11/8.

I just can't see Haye stopping the plodding tank of Chisora.

After 2 round's I will place my bet, Chisora will get hit a lot so he could get stopped you never no, as
for Sky bet we have had no problems with them.

really? Have you placed any bets on this fight with them before yesterday? I e mailed them to complain and they just sent me this crappy reply

Thanks for your email.

I have forwarded your query onto our traders who have informed me that we have had to void these bets as the whole market needs to be recalculated based on the shortening of the rounds and the possible eventualities this can affect, this is simply a question of the maths behind a sports book unfortunately.

I hope that this has answered your query, if not then please don't hesitate to contact us.

Kind Regards,

The other problem they have if the bets not voided is - the fight goes the distance and you can claim you bet on a 12 round contest instead of 10 and want your stake back.

There's no way this is going the full ten, put your house/wife/kids on a Haye KO

The choice would have been nice lol. Yeah it's just annoying that now I have to put my money on at a far worse price and it's over less rounds.

Did PP void your £250 bet?
