    Pro Status Consideration.

    I have been absent from the forums for a few months now & have no reason to lie to strangers.
    I had to go back to work to build a BR. I have since built it up to $3000 and have been betting since the Bowl games started. Ran into a little bit of luck with the Nevada game & several other Bowl games but that has all been negated by the Raptors winning streak.
    I lost what is a HUGE bet for me back in October when I laid over $1000 on the Tigers to win the Series.
    Lately I have invested $50 and have found myself down $100 since the SF Giants bent me over. (This includes some small $5 & $10 losses with a local lottery called Proline)

    I plan on going a bit of a run after the Bowl game on Monday.

    I figured if I am going to deposit $1000+ and keep a detailed record for the month of January I might as well take the steps necessary to go PRO here and take the humiliation that comes along with posting your picks at SBR!!

    I have existing accounts at Will Hill, 5Dimes, Bodog.ca (can't play @ Bodog.com cause of my location), Bookmaker, Sportsinteraction & Intertops.
    My regular book is Bet 365.

    I have an account at Legendz but have never deposited there.
    I only signed up there so I could enter a March Madness bracket here @ SBR.

    Any advice which site I should use to start my run that complies with the affiliate program they run here at SBR?

    (Requesting insta_ban for anyone who suggests BI!!!!!)

    Keep in mind I am Canadian and will likely dump whatever I deposit! I notice that BETDSI isn't in the list anymore.
    I also will only sign up at a site that accepts *****.
    I don't have a bank and do not use credit.

    I'd like to get this rolling before the Bamma - Irish game but, I am not in EMERGENCY MODE.


    I am not a BOUNUS-HUMPER, because I have generally found that I have to roll over to large of an amount and sometime I like to withdraw after 4-5 big hits in a row.
    Also it has been my philosophy that if you are winning hundreds, you generally don't care about a $50-$60 bonus and if you in a position where you are depending on that $50-$60 you are losing too many bets in the 1st place.

    Either way I have been meaning to do this for a long time & with the Islands catastrophe, I figure what do I have to lose?


    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    nevermind, I just read the rules and it's clear I cant refer to the deposit method, or I am risking bannage.

    I have a friend in Toronto who bets with the Greek now.
    I guess he was with BetJamacia and they were absorbed by The Greek, he says payouts are quick.
    with fair customer service.

    did you consider that I dont have a bank or a CC?
    this means I need a book that will mail me cheques or money orders.

    I have also just realized that a deposit of this size would cost me over $100 if I use my regular method of deposit.
    It looks like I will be using a Scotia Bank **** card to do this.
    I will likely be charged as a cash advance but will pay it off in cash right away.
    I don't know pinnacle at all.
    Is this really my best option?

    I know it, I have never used it or heard of anyone I know use it.
    I should have made that clear.
    I am not adverse to using however.

    Do they accept Canadian accounts?
    do they mail cheques?
    Can I withdraw for free, at least once a month?

    Pinnacle doesn't have a listed phone number.

    You're best bet is to use SIA and immediately stop playing Proline. Don't even think about playing Proline if you want to win at sports.

    Refer to this thread for my opinions on PROLINE. But for $5-$10 I can afford to make a bad gamble every now & then.
    In spite of getting involved in this rediculous contest I completely agree with you

    I may still consider Pinny but, I don't like that you can't contact them without any internet or Wi-Fi.

    I just got off the line with BetOnline and they told me that for $50 they will mail cheques to Canada and that I can deposit with V|SA to a maximum of $2,500.00.
