Have you never seen all the complaints against them the last few years? They confiscate funds in a heartbeat, and for every SBR complaint that got resolved, there were probably twice as many thefts from players that don't know about SBR.

I've seen a few of course, but they were over the kind of money I will never see or accumulate there. I, for one, think it's crazy to hold that kind of off-shore balance in the first place, and wouldn't be surprised if and when any book gets shady when it comes to massive withdrawals. Ideal? No, but it is what it is. I've never had a problem with them personally, and wouldn't speak ill of any book I haven't had direct problems with unless the evidence is overwhelming against it.
Where is your proof that they "confiscate funds in a heartbeat"? Did this happen to you?

BOL's negative reputation here is greatly exaggerated. And I don't think much of Justin personally.

Well, I don't bet much personally, but every time I've ever gone above $2,000, I've cashed out and started over. It's good both for the sake of discipline and safety in my book. That's just me.

The idea of keeping five-figure balances in an off-shore gambling account isn't only reckless -- it's just plain stupid. It's not like these books are FDIC approved or something. Amazing how gamblers don't use common sense when it comes to so much money.

Not true at all, I have no qualms with keep those balances at any of the books I use except Rebate Wager. And for non-USA, you can keep six figures at Pinny without worrying about it.

Any of these books can be shut down over night, no questions asked. Some are more susceptible than others, but let's face facts: we aren't dealing with a scrupulous industry here, and the U.S. Government obviously has a hard-on for on-line gambling in general.
If you have "no qualms" with keeping five-figure balances at any book, you're just begging to have it disappear as far as I'm concerned. Like I said, we're not talking about a savings account at a bank here.

5 Dimes and Bookmaker aren't going anywhere and they are the type of outfits that even if forced to stop serving USA, would still pay you. I have only been at Heritage since Greek transfer but I trust them too. Of course having Ganchrow on chat is a bonus.
