This game is getting pulled off the board by all of the Sportsbooks because Kobe's not playing.

Since I was the only one to have a bet in, I've abandoned the game completely and pulled the game off the board for now, pending a new line being set.

I didn't want to leave my bet standing even though it's probably an easy(ier) win now.

Gotta keep up appearances, you know.

If there had been other bets besides mine, we probably would have just closed the betting (not issued refunds) and let the existing bets stand (as they would in any real sportsbook).

Just getting this info on the record for the future as a precedent.

Good idea Glenn.

Maybe Lamar will have a big night for me. Too bad Walton is also out from my team.
