I had quite a bit of money on the irons today, being liverpool scored in the 90.32 minute i lost. but my bet was for 90 minutes. should the bookies pay out? (technically west ham had won on the 90 minute mark) and would i have a case in a court of law against the bookie for false advertising a bet?

You can't win a game without the final whistle blowing so I think you're flogging a dead horse

i am only asking coz i think some bookies do pay out on the 90 minute mark as opposed to the final whistle or am i wrong? Also this is only a theorotical question i aint looking at taking a bookie to court over £500.

wigger01, if you don't know the rules, don't bet the money. you know the old proverb, " a fool and his money are easy parted." thewidowsson.

I think they refer to the ninety minutes up to and including injury time. Extra time is not included in the ninety minutes. So im afraid mate you lost out. Also you can try to take a bookies to court but they are do not legally have to pay out on bets, also bookies have a maximum pay out, one of my locals is 50,000 euro. That said however the stories you hear of a nan winning the pools for a 1/4 million are true and they do payout as its the best bit of advertising they can wish for. That comes from the horses mouth so to speak. If you are looking to do bets for 90min bang on say it to the staff if they can they will take it of you could try one of the online betting markets
