Delaware cancels grid bets after Las Vegas lines dispute
Delaware canceled football betting on four to six NFL games after handicappers said state lines diverged from Las Vegas odds. Bets totaled about 996 000 on 26 000 cards, nearly triple the prior week. A Claymont bettor threatened to sue if winnings were denied, insisting Delaware pay. Green Bay at 6 1/2 point favorites lost by four, while San Francisco beat New Orleans 20, contradicting the state line. An imminent appeals ruling could halt the lottery in this NFL dispute.
