You are correct, it would only be voided if a listed pitcher at the time of the bet agreement didn't end up starting (which almost always changes the line). In cases like yesterday: technically Cliff Lee was a pitching change, but the announcement was made so early that he was listed as the Rangers' starting pitcher basically all day, and therefore was listed when all the bets on that game were made yesterday, so those all had action. Looks like the pitching change in the Royals/Wsox game happened at about 10:30 this morning which I think is when fppME made his post so it's probable that no one bet on that game before the pitching change was announced and line was adjusted.

Edit: This is just IMO, you guys can obviously reach whatever agreement you'd like. The main reason bets get cancelled ITT after pitching changes is because it changes all the lines and totals, like when the change was announced in KC/CHW, the line went from KC -123 to KC +132, and the total jumped from 8.5 to 9.5 (so in the future your guys' bet would most likely have action since the 9.5 total line was used which was the correct line after the pitching change... hope this helps

Makes sense, our bet is cancelled this time kcannon, because of the confusion, but if a similar situation happens in the future my bets will have action unless the pitching changed happened after the bet was made.

Kansas City at Chicago Sox 2:05 PM OVER ($300)
St. Louis at Houston ($400) 2:05 PM OVER ($300)
Pittsburgh at Milwaukee ($300) 2:10 PM
Baltimore at Texas 3:05 PM UNDER

NY Yankees at Seattle ($100) 4:10 PM

A formal note about lines, for anyone new. Every game should be booked using vig-free calc (http://0vigcalc.150m.com/calc.htm), except for lines where both sides are -, for example -105/-101 can be booked as pickem, for o/u's -109/-101 can be booked as pickem. If listed starting pitchers don’t start all bets on those games are cancelled.

I would probably be in if it were a random order for a draft and then we got to pick our player, but not if it was just randomly assigned.

I would prefer doing it for $50, I just assumed most people would want to do more. Definitely down for $50 though.

I'm in for 50 or 100 random or picked. Might be hard to coordinate everyone for draft though.

This may be a little early, but I just noticed Pinny has it up for you new believers out there:

Want Heat to NOT win NBA title 2010-2011. vig free is -199. Call it -200. My 600 to your 300. Minimum your 100.

I must confirm for action, and there are probably only 5 or so people on here I would trust for this 11 month action sans escrow. The rest of you would need to escrow if you want it.
