    A lot of players heard the news on BOS and we are getting swamped with emails.

    As Dark Horse mentioned...no need to panic. We are all very sorry to see so many players stressed. But we will inform you of every move and give you our opinion several times a day. The bottomline is we feel BOS players WILL be paid.

        The only thing i am Panicking about is my netteller acct. I could very easily see them cutting off US customers from senting and receiving from their US bank accts.If that happens how do we get money into netteller???
        Has to be a reason why they are senting out differant netteller debit cards
        If i only have ** as an option,i for one will never send in more that $999.

          I am not panicked, but feel quite uneasy about all of this.

          Read http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquer...:@@@D&summ2=m&
          and do a web search on H.R.4411.

          This is not good if they shut down netellers moneybookers and tell your isp providers to block any access to gambling sites.

            I'm not saying we're not on a battlefield. But do we really want to see some of our warriors wet their pants?

            This is the time to put HUGE pressure on policitians. It is not a time for worrying about what might happen, but it would be wise to start coming up with some solutions and strategies in case the worst case scenario does manifest.

            Instead of filling each others minds with fear, we should remind each other of our strength. Six billion US dollars are not spend by five people. We have the numbers!

            As gamblers, we are the risktakers. On the other side I see nothing but scared little politicians. They want a fight? Great! Make my day...

              The beginning is the worst..Lets see what happens as this thing plays itself out..The most important aspect right now is whether these sites get back up in a reasonable amount of time..As a player if I have $$ with BOS I am allready establishing a new account with another book..If I wanted to wager on the Yanks yesterday I did, with another out..If I am thinking about options for football right now BOS isnt one of them, and who could blame me??..With a run on the bank, and no new depositors, you do the math..

                Strange question, considering BOS always was a bad and shady book

                      Your true colors come out isetcap. BetOnSports is an equal opertunity stiff book. Its shameful but not surprising that not everyone is against a scamming sportsbook.

                        I'm only going by the data I have seen, Chuck. You continuously ranting about how horrible they are does not provide me evidence of their "scam status" no matter how many times or how loud you yell it. From my own personal experience I am up over 5 figures overall with BoS and I have received multiple 5 figure withdrawals each in less than 24 hours. Now I understand that my experience with them is limited but it still means more to me than your singular rhetoric. In carefully reviewing all the documentation I have seen concerning the other supposed "stiff jobs", I have yet to come accross a situation where I can place a worse label on the casino than the player who was being "stiffed". To me it's blatantly obvious; if you are a player who is not trying to circumvent their rules, they will pay you your money. If you are trying to play against the spirit of their bonus policy (perhaps even after being warned), then your bonus and winnings from that bonus may be in serious jeopardy.

                        Beyond that, you probably know more than I do about BoS. The problem is that you don't provide anything of substance for someone skeptical such as myself to grasp onto. I mean you never do, ever; never ever. I've been dying for you to give us something but your just like a deposit-only sportsbook that swears the money is in the mail.
