      I'm aware of the one payout every five days, but BTC payouts are being done within hours now.

        they're doing some shady things though.

        you try to place a bet and they say the lines have changed and won't let you wager.

        only way to bet on that wager is for you to restart the browser.

        when you comeback to bet, they raise the vig by 10 cents. they started to do this couple days ago. fukkers!!!!

            Player payment reports say Bovada are probably the fastest btc payers among regular books at the moment.
            Outside of Bitcoin which is new for them they only have checks which are pretty archaic. Also my comment was the book sucks in general and for multiple reasons. Maybe they can payout in btc quick but guess what they can't do? Post lines at a normal time, not restrict what you can and can't bet and limit you the minute you succeed

                  My last two checks, for 3k each, took 12 days and 2 days. However I know they had delays before this.

                    Great Books no doubt. But I hope we have more choices than that.

                      Haven't had issues with them like that yet. Of course... I've never had a PO with Bovada yet. They probably mess with "select" accts. Probably follow your wagering patterns when you start winning.

                        did anyone deposit two times on the same day and receive the 100% bitcoin bonus for both deposits or can I only do this once per day?

                          You can do it as many times as you want each day.

                            I dropped 250 into my account for this promo and this bullshit is what will make me never do it again. It's like if you have half a clue they jam you up any way possible.

                              agreed. they are garbage. they post lines late, move lines after you add the to betting slip and offer buying a hlaf on some games and not on others. they are the most assholish sportsbook there is.

                                        It has been arriving within hours of request recently.

                                        Your account may just be just flagged for a check before a new withdraw is allowed.

                                        Have you asked CS why the delay?

                                          They say it can take up to 48 hours for a team to review it, and they havent got to mine yet to review.

                                            Must be an account review. After this time you should see payments faster.

                                                Anyone having problems depositing? I sent my bitcoin to my wallet at Bovada and the transaction shows "Pending/unconfirmed" in the wallet I sent it from (wallet using Multibit on my computer) about an hour ago.

                                                I have to say I've heard back from their Customer Service twice already in that time so that's good.

                                                    original 2nd half total line was 28.5 even for the under then when i tried to make a bet, said it changed. then when i close browser and reopen now the new line was 28.5 -125. fukkers!!!!!!
                                                    Bovada just did it moments ago to me on a college football line. Moved the juice -115. (The game isn't even until Saturday. Playing this junk on a Tuesday Night.) That's ok though.... I'll get these fuks back. Just click the opposite of what you want.... and let the line shift. Then... grab what you wanted "originally" and bam... take it!

                                                    These guys want to mess around huh?

                                                        Turns out it was a problem with the program on my computer that I use to transfer Bitcoin (Multibit). I re-synchronized my Multibit program (twice) and it removed the erroneous attempted transaction and credited by Bitcoin amount back to me. I was then able to transfer to Bovada and the funds were in my account within seconds.

                                                        This had NOTHING to do with Bovada's Bitcoin transfer system.

                                                                    I agree with much of what you said about Bovada's shortcomings. However their "weird" bonus system is one of the best I've seen from a player's point. It's cash and has just a 5x roll for 100% match. It's easy money especially if you have a 5D account to offset action. And fast payouts are very important if you need to reload other accounts, especially if they too are offering great bonuses.

                                                                      A couple reasons:

                                                                      (a) Liquidity is key for a savvy gambler. The margins are thin, and you want to be able to allocate your funds to the softest and best of spots.

                                                                      Maybe there's a much softer line at another book. The odds on the Oakland Raiders to win the AFC West right now range from as low as +292 to as high as +600 (I checked half a dozen books). That's an insane gap.

                                                                      Or maybe there's a high stakes poker game that only runs on Friday nights.

                                                                      (b) Even the largest books or poker sites can shut down entirely at any time. I lost a fortune from UltimateBet in April 2011. I've been fortunate enough to get paid by every sportsbook, but ya never know.

                                                                      (c) Other factors, though not as important: psychologically, it's nice to book a win... the principle of the matter (these books make a fortune off people playing online roulette!).... I'll let others chime in because I think I'm forgetting one or two other reasons

I go to take Atlanta +3-105. but I can't because the line has changed from American odds to European. Customers service says I have to clear browser history. I go back in and The line moves to Atlanta +3 -115 I have been with Bovada/Bodog for years you would think they would treat customers better than that.
