How is sportsinteraction.com treating everyone these days?

I assume they are still showing winners the door. I have been shown it and so have a few of my friends. When I was with them I had no issues at all, payouts went fine to moneybookers once they verified my ID.

I just made a deposit for the Masters.Great odds for the Masters.I had Shingo or whatever the Japanese gay bar dancer's name is and he came in 4th and was in the hunt the whole tourney at 600-1 .Had Hamilton too at about the same odds and he did well too.

They have better methods of deposits these days for americans and that stood out as an improvement.

Still the same old bait and switchers with cheesey promotions though.

They toy with the idea of revisiting old disputes. If they make good, they move up with SBR. Recent performance been very good.

pay fast.

IMO they are the best D+ rated book in the industry.

Impossible to deposit into. E-Check is dead. CC acceptance is abominable. VirtWallet a complete mess.

Those are the only options.

Just requested a moneybookers withdrawal. Their identity requirements are steep...

Emily_Haines · 04-17-09, 11:10 AM

I thought they were pretty good. Very easy to get money into. Talked them into giving me a 10% cash bonus. The only thing I didn't like is that they would wait until 30 minutes before game time to post odds on some events. They paid promptly and overall was a pretty good experience. I'll be using them as a book for sure when football starts.

Not a bad recreational book and nice betting website. They have it all there.

AMBlai01 · 04-17-09, 01:49 PM

They do ask for a lot when trying to withdraw but I have had no problems with them...I am pretty small time myself though.

Raul_001 · 04-17-09, 03:55 PM

If you go on a winning streak or even bet heavily, you get restricted to 10% stakes.

Stumpage · 04-17-09, 04:13 PM

Look, as long as you realize and accept the fact that this is a very, very small-time book, all will be well. But if you're a so-called "pro", and want to have a relationship with this book, it will be a very brief relationship at best.

Other than that, I assume it's business as usual here.....

Can the US residents play there?

If you read the other posts you'll understand. They were allowing me $1100 on spreads for football and I believe $440 for over/unders. I won 5 k in a week there and when I cashed out I believe I had 8 or 9 K there when I cashed out I got the typical your account is not a "recreational" account and as such you are now limited to.....

I think you get the rest.... The problem was I withdrew all my money and deposited into pinny and proceeded to lose 3 K there. If they had let me play that lose would have come backt o them.

BBetter, I would defer to 20four7 here, as he summed it up perfectly in his post above...But I will add the following.....

SIA have a threshold at which they cut you off, which I'm fairly certain is a $10,000 profit. And if one is willing to accept that, then it's all systems go. However, the simple fact is that Pinnacle, Greek, Cris and a few others can lose that much on a single wager and not bat an eyelash. As such, I believe "small-time book" is a very deserving designation for SIA.

I was only 2k up, so that threshold is certainly not for all

SIA has made great strides in the last 2 years. In fact, if I were only judging them on that, they would be a B or B+ book. They have some outstanding disputes from over 2 years ago regarding account confiscations that need to be cleared up.

I was probably somewhere between 6 and 7 K when they shut me down. One friend was up 12K before they shut him down. If not for their past reputation regarding confiscations I might not have asked for a withdrawal after my 5K weekend. I think that's what triggered the boot for me. If I left the money in for a bit I think I could have played longer before being shown the door.
