they refuse to pay out all the time in arb cases

as they are generally because the price is bigger than somewhere else. they therefore void the bet due to palpable error (ie the member of staff shouldn't have taken the bet) or pay out at reduced odds. and if they void and you layed it somewhere else as the price was smaller, and it won then you are soooooooooooo up s**t creek!
