    Ive never really used a bookies before, only bet online. I just put an accumulator on for the next five games in Boyle sports. The lady told me to write down the winners.

    I wrote as follows -

    Italy v Romania - Italy
    Holland v France - Holland
    Sweden v Spain - Spain
    Greece v Russia - Russia
    Portugal v Turkey - Portugal

    The mistake is that Portugal dont play Turkey, they play Switzerland. When I handed it in she confirmed that the winners were the ones on the right hand side. Will it go against me that I wrote the wrong team ? Or will only the right hand column count ?

    5 euro returns about 130 euro.

    I think it'll just be counted for the other 4 bets. But I'm only about 90% sure on that.

    Did you place the bet today? Id be fairly sure the Portugal match will be a non runner.

    Hmm - what if I went in tomorrow (before the game in question has happened) and asked them to change it ? Its not changing the actually bet, just making sure its on a game that is actually scheduled.

    Yeah, placed it today. So you think they will just count the other 4 ? What if I went in and pointed it out ?

    They should change it if you go in.

    +1.

    For future notice, just write down the team and the odds, no fixtures required
