    Start trying to get the money out right away.

    Millionaires can afford to.

    PS: 250k Not in just two places, you must mean dozens of C & D books.

    This poster will get paid.

    If he offered me to buy his 30k balance for 25k I would do it in a heartbeat. Their SBR rating doesn't reflect anything.

    He even said before that he doesn't really have 30k there....

    I'm sure it's a decent amount, but not that much

    I do have 30k on there... but as I said before, a lot of it was bonus money (like 25%)... still would like to keep that money, bonus or not haha

    Good stuff man.. from the guys ive spoken with that have a lot of experience with this site, including you, it seems like there shouldnt be much to worry about.

    Still, even if it were an A rated book, i agree with most of you that it is not smart to have this much money in any single book.. I do like keeping a large roll with my book, but I am definitely going to work on taking out small amounts at a time without raising any red flags

    Gl and thanks for the insight

    I'm sure it would really work out, I'd just be too paranoid to trust 30k to someone in a country whose major exports are spears and dirt.

    If you've met the roll, and fulfilled their ID requirements, the money is yours. Take it out in the amounts you want. I would request 2 wires for $9500.

    I don't make it in this business. I do it as a hobby. Like drinking a bottle of vodka and smashing it over a hooker's face instead of paying her 20 bucks.

    What is the most money you would leave in an offshore account such as Sportsbetting? SIA? I have 3K combined in those two sites right now. My plan was to cash out once I reached 10K combined, having second thoughts now.

    i am doing a 180 on this place, they are taking a shot at me for some bets I made yesterday on possible super bowl matchups they are grading them as losses instead of no action. I cannot believe they are trying to pull this. I would recommend anyone with money here be careful. I filed a complaint with SBR just now

    hope nothing has changed - but too many potential problems coming up. i have a 0 balance and was going to deposit soon. guess i will wait and see if there is good reason for concern.

    wow I just spoke with them... hopefully you didnt bet much... doesnt seem like they are willing to budge..

    Vivian Croft
    Thank you, what can I do for you today?
    dave
    just a technical question for you
    Vivian Croft
    sure
    dave
    say I made a made a futures wager on a potential matchup between the SF 49ers and the NE patriots in the superbowl... but as we know the 49ers didnt make the superbowl... what would happen to that wager? would it be refunded as "no action" or would it be considered a loss?
    Vivian Croft
    it will be a loss
    dave
    why would it be a loss if the game never happened??
    Vivian Croft
    and it will not be graded until after the super bowl
    dave
    shouldnt that be considered no action?
    Vivian Croft
    because you were betting on them playing against each other, since this did not happen it is considered a loss
    dave
    another example... if I bet lebron james Over 25 points, but he ends up not playing... isnt that considered no action?
    Vivian Croft
    yes it would be, however the difference here is that you were betting on a possibility of those two teams playing against each other and that possibility did not happen therefore making that specific wager a loss

    WOW

    I just found this in their rulebook... absolutely crazy.. ive never seen anything like this... but it is in their rulebook as crazy as it seems:

    Futures and Propositions

    Future bets are based on the outcome of events that happen each year. Propositions are bets based on the outcome of special events. All bets are final. There will be no payouts until the conclusion of the specified season for futures or the conclusion of the specified event for propositions.

    If your selection (person, team, etc.) does not participate in the event for any reason, your bet is considered a loss.

    I think this rule would apply under PROSPECTIVE wagers rule #8

    If the PROSPECTIVE event does not take place the wagers will be no-actioned and all monies refunded. Events classified as PROSPECTIVE will be labeled as such on our website.

    Edit it did not say PROSPECTIVE but POSSIBLE. To me they mean the same thing

    WOW RIPOFF ALERT

    BTW the Superbowl matchups is obvious. You're placing a wager on specific teams to make an appearance at the big game and you get large odds, wtf would they return your money when your predictions/wager didn't come to fruition? Gambling 101, guys.

    If you don't know the rules then don't place bets. Simple as that.

    I've never had any issues with sportsbetting grading or getting withdrawals via wire, but I also would never keep $30k there either or any sportsbook for that matter.

    dlunc3 - do a wire for $9500 and let us know how it goes.

    just logged back in my account and the funds were there
    anyway glad they realized their error

    hopefully everyone else who made these bets that will not occur will get these funds back
    i have been wagering offshore for over 10 years, first time something like this has happened to me

    anyway... yea I think im gonna take a decent chunk out now.. after talking with and hearing from a lot of you, I feel pretty safe

    either way, ill let you guys know how i make out... if good, and from my experiences thusfar over the years with them, i would recommend this book to anyone

    great cust. service and well run site (limits can be a little low, and totals up late sometimes, but other then that, they are solid in my my mind... as of now )
