    Make a bet for twice the amount you accidentally bet on the over, for the under (assumes the over/under line is still available at a book somewhere).

    Impossible. Great line, totally blew it. Will eat risk.

    And this is why, for any major wagers, you should go to a ticket counter and interact with a human being. As long as you are still at the counter (verifiable afterwards via eye-in-the-sky), you can request a refund. Just say you messed up or there was an error. The key is to still be at the counter.

    One time I made a wager in an empty Harrah's sports book for $4700 or thereabouts. I requested a hamburger comp from the deli right next to the book. They informed me I had to wager 5K for a hamburger. I thought that was poor, given I was the only person in the place. I was so disgusted I said, hey, I made a mistake, refund me. And they did. So then I drove to the Rio, which had identical odds, made the same bet and got a super buffet comp, which I knew they'd give me. So when people compare my comp wrangling with Dan Druff, yeah, sometimes I take to the nth.

    The point is, however, you have options as long as you are at the counter with a human being.

    I would have done the same, if a 4700$ wager can't get you a small food comp, they can shove it up there pie hole....Druffs tales of comp whoring, are legendary. I love good stories of APS and even plopps one upping casinos !
