              Does anyone else not even realize why Wager Chief Shawn changed his name to Ryan "Gretchen" Rossi? Usually when people change their names in this industry it's for a reason. I pray everyone gets paid and if Jon has any say so , you will. He is a stand up fellow!

                      Wait and see if we miraculously get paid somehow. Not a lot you can do about it. We're all most likely fcked. I am not going to be reckless with my balance though. Just going to let things play out. Even shit books like BOL have paid some people out... eventually

                        SBR and Jon should respond. If the money is gone, its gone, that is life and we all know the risks of an unregulated environment. We're all big boys, but customers getting jerked around is just sick.

                        I feel bad for these guys, because better just to be told one time "never getting any money" then be told next week, 6pm, 24-48 hours, blah blah blah. I would have more respect if Jon just posted the true story and then went on his way. Time to own up to reality.

                          Chances are good that people are going to lose money and for some a lot of money and you keep making fun of the situation, stay classy you piece of shit.

                            Holy cripes. This doesn't look good.
                            They should at least comment on some of the stories being told here.

                            Like most of the employees were let go today, or that Jon is just gone, etc.

                                SBR has to have told their employees to NOT comment on this situation.

                                No way would shari or justin7 not pop in here to give an honest opinion unless they were specifically told not to.

                                      When a book is trashed so much that they know nobody on SBR will ever play there again, why the hell would they pay anyone?

                                      The people here wigging out pretty much caused a run, and ruined any incentive I had to try and make it work.

                                            This is bizarre.

                                            You guys who deposited with BI did so at the direction/endorsement/advertisement of SBR.

                                            And to let this thread spin out of control like this, without so much as a single explanation beyond "we checking in on it" is bad management.

                                            I'm not sure who is directing who here, but it's bad direction. If nothing else, put the rumors to death, explain what is known at this time, and help your customers.

                                                    if you're holding such a small % in customer deposits that a bunch of sbr posters can cause a run that you can't cover, then it was going to eventually happen anyway. this isn't a bank that is lending out deposits, they are supposed to be HOLDING THEM.

                                                    i feel badly for anyone with money there at this point, it's a shitty situation that unfortunately i have been in more than a few times myself.

                                                              the bonuses and free half points raised a red flag to me. I also did not understand how a business could succeed offering so many free plays. Any time a new book opens up with these too good to be true offers they are probably not going to last long. For future reference I will remember this incident. Sorry to those of you who lost money.

                                                                I don't think it's any secret that that 90% of BI's players came from SBR, so SBR could definitely cause a run on the book.

                                                                  You guys who deposited with BI did so at the direction/endorsement/advertisement of SBR.

                                                                  And to let this thread spin out of control like this, without so much as a single explanation beyond "we checking in on it" is bad management.

                                                                  I'm not sure who is directing who here, but it's bad direction. If nothing else, put the rumors to death, explain what is known at this time, and help your customers.

In fact it was pretty good for awhile. Then came UIGEA and all of a sudden there was more shit on the road. Lost neteller, Pinnacle, the The Greek pulled out and then Bet Jam. Pretty soon peeps were navigating a real shit highway to try and make a buck, not that the shit wasn't there before but now there was more.

                                                                    Sometimes folks just didn't stay as clean as they might have done before. Read it again Bubba, not as clean as they were before. Human nature and the need to make a buck. As The Stones said "Got to scrape the shit right off your shoes". Just harder to do that these days pal.
