online blackjack doesnt seem profitable? is it?

Stick to land-based but I like Bookmaker.com. Thye may be able to meet your payout needs in terms of currency...go to the site and speak to a CS rep

probably betpheonix. just dont bet steam or else they will rape your grandmother.

like i said i have both US and korean banks, so if the currency's in $ that's not an issue. What's the fastest way to get a payout though? I read some posts here about how slow bodog was in payment... like 2 months slow. I was looking for something faster.

and blackjack.... i've been doing well lately. I do some sports betting, especially mma too, but definitely looking to play some blackjack.

Listen to this good man sir, he knows what he's talking about.

talked to a rep, and he suggested i use neteller, but i tried googling it, and it doesn't seem that great to use if you're from the US. Also, neteller requires that you upgrade your account for withdrawals? How much does stuff like that generally cost?

Here is what you do.. link neteller to your South Korean bank account, never mention to them that you are an American citizen, load money into Neteller and play at the best western bookie in the world, pinnaclesports.com, deposits and withdrawals within minutes of request.

mayhaps my very american name in my south korean bank account would give it away?

Just refrain yourself from logging in when you're in the US and you won't have any problems, you'll be playing like a Korean player. That upgrade I believe it doesn't not cost you a lot, I have tried it with paypal myself and they charge you $3 and then put them back when you get your verified status.

Not really, generally that shouldn't raise a flag. They mostly verify through the bank account and phone confirmation.

And in the off chance that they indeed denied you, just get a moneybookers.com account which works exactly like Neteller and are a bit more lax.

dud , i dont mean to spoil your partry here, but regardless if your american or another nationality, there is no good place for anyone to play blackjack online.

i know your a good blackjack player, but its a little like asking where is a good place for an american to to get shat on.

dudnaito · 03-01-09, 03:55 AM

talked to neteller; it's not about being a us citizen, it's about what bank you're gonna use. If i use a korean bank, they said there are no problems.

and what's up with blackjack? Why's it getting this bad rep? Honestly, I'm kinda of a gambling newb, so i don't really understand. I did turn $40 into $800 at bodog, and i just tried out the pinnacle one with free money (do they use different randomizers??? bodog's tends to favor face cards, but pinnacle seems to favor numbers cards). Either way, i do pretty well with blackjack. If nothing else, i lost 500 at vegas; i tend to do a whole lot better online.

Dud, you bet on sports or just casino games?
