    Fellow Non-Pros with no offshore cash to worry about....check in!

    With the poker sites getting hammered today and degens everywhere freaking out and trying to withdraw their "disposable income" ()............are the "books" next?

    Glad I've got two great locals..........one with a kickass website that requires zero financial deposits (full line of credit).

    Non-Pros = Great nights sleep this evening

    Yes books are next.

    I also use a local for small stuff under 500 a game and anything over that must be phoned in to him.

    God bless a local.

    So, you actually took the time to send the "measly $200" offshore for betpoints and acceptance? Guess when you're raised by those that fled a hole like El Salvador you're brought up with poor self esteem. Sorry about that.

    This is hilarious.


    Most books you have to send the cash, so you obviously have it.

    Most locals I know go on credit, allowing people the chance to STIFF them. Meaning they don't have any disposable income.

    I'll sleep just fine tonight. Not concerned since I keep my balance under 1500 as much as possible.

    I have $1k off-shore. If that gets taken, oh well, can't do anything about it. I'l just use a VPN and use my BetFair account.

    Luckily for me, I've lost everything I had off-shore. No worries here.

    locals who extend credit would do nothing but get most this forum in trouble..Give 100 guys credit and by next Tuesday night 75% of them will have their phone #'s changed

    Explain why you think offshore books are about to get hit? I am not a PRO because it is kinda silly to me, but I am definitely interested in your knowledge if you think online gambling is about to take an unexpected fall all of a sudden

    Exactly...This guy is obviously just trying to justify his reasoning in not becoming a SBR PRO. Now that this has happened he has a great excuse of why it's worthless to become a pro.

    I never said it was "worthless to become a pro". Points are cool......but, now that the poker sites have been slammed today I wouldn't be very comfortable with a wad of cash sitting offshore in a book.

    Really, this thread was meant as a joke..............since pro's love non-pros.

    Seen some thing like this already 5 years earlier where the Feds took down Paradise Poker, a site sponsored by Sportsbook.com. Even though they shut down the poker site to US customers, Sportsbook.com is still running stronger than ever, although payout is much slower than it was 5 years earlier. The sportsbook are fine.
