"@DKSportsbook voided both my bets from the Celtics game. I see that they did this to everyone. Make this right and pay me my money. You can’t accept the bets and then void them after they hit. Such a scummy move that will 100% get me to switch to @FDSportsbook."

He then came on to report they had paid the bets in his account "but now it's gone".

"So slips say won and paid but you took the money back. @celtics should cut advertising with you for scamming their fans."

Bismo wasn't the only one impacted.

From The Hoods Therapist:

"So #DraftKings is just voiding everything from the Celtics Bulls game???"

Buck Foston at Reddit revealed the same thing happened to him.

"All my Celtics props from tonight got voided after the game ends."

Players there responded that it was just a glitch and payouts began appearing Saturday morning.  But needless-to-say there were plenty of sports bettors who didn't sleep well on this one.

drwafflefingers explained what had transpired.

"The game was marked END REG in the app when the score was something like 108-105. I nearly panicked since I put a paycheck on the over. But then I turn on the TV and it's early in the fourth. Went to espn and they had 0.0 time remaining. Something went haywire. But I got paid by end of night. Only regret is not putting two payhecks on that shit. Most obvious over of the whole season given the teams playing and weird ass NBA cup rules."
