how much money did Mike Tomlin's little stunt cost Las Vegas?

Vegas had the Ravens favored by 3 points and they only won by 2 points (22-20). The touchdown Tomlin prevented would have kept the Steelers from covering the spread because the final score would have been 26-20. If the NFL awards the points later when the draft picks are levied through tie-breakers and what-not, does Vegas get their money back from the betters who profited from Tomlin's action? The gambling public should be sending Tomlin a cut to pay his fine. Once again the NFL refs show how powerful they're action or in-actions can be.

    Probably not that much considered most people thought the Ravens wouldn't cover anyway. Those games are always close.
