Those who bet on the Mets-Cubs game Tuesday night - and there were plenty of you based on our traffic here at Gambling911 - may be wondering what happened to their bets.
That game was postponed to severe thunderstorms and lingering rains that lasted throughout much of the night here in Chicago.
The typical rules for suspended and postponed Major League Baseball games appear below, however, this was no typical game as it ended up postponed with a 1-1 tie in extra innings.

All bets except the 1st 5 Innings odds were no-actioned.
The Run Line (Spread) and Totals were no-actioned because the game did not go at least 8.5 innings. Rule:
“For all Regular Season Runline (spread) and Total (over/under) wagers to have action, the game must go 9 innings or 8½ if the home team is winning, listed pitchers must also start to have action.”
For the Money Line, since the game was tied and postponed until a future date, the bets were also no-actioned. Rule:
“Regular Season Games must be played on scheduled date and site. If a game is rescheduled all bets are cancelled.”
