      exactly

      most guys like me convert to cash right away so when the payout goes through should be the price

      people like to complain about bovada, i don't get it, all you do by avoiding them is cost yourself free $$$ all over the place

      on any given day there are at least 50 things worth betting there

          I just don't like to be misled...as long as they/people are upfront with me, I can overlook a lot

                        We were told that bitcoin payouts are open to anyone who has previously deposited that way. Minimum $20, maximum $9,500 daily transaction limit (one per day). Payouts should take 4-6 hours from the time that the payout was approved. Keep us posted with how long it is taking your payouts to be approved through bitcoin.

                          I have been. Their payouts take longer than any of the big books since I signed up over 15 years ago. That's why I don't play there. And apparently according to these threads they are still slow paying customers.

                            2nd request was made yesterday at 4pm. i'll will update on how long it takes.

                              obviously you don't cashout very often. i've been slow paid both with checks and vffs. but that is due to processor issues so i don't really blame them but with bitcoin, they can't blame processors...

                              with bitcoin, they're just being shady.

                                    I have cashed out many times and have never been slow paid. Large amounts too. I use Bodog though and don't live in US so not sure if it's the same company

                                      72 hours for bitcoin? That's slower than chek from most places. How long does it take them to credit bitcoin? 5 minutes tops? So basically they wait 3 days to process your withdrawls hoping you lose your money. Scumbags.

                                        fwiw big difference between "shady" and "incompetent with btc"

                                        I'm sure they're checking every possible angle someone could burn them with before approving and knowing this outfit that would take a day or two Waiting sucks but I dont worry about receiving in a somewhat reasonable amount of time

                                          OK but even if that's the reason they could at least take the money out of the account at time of withdraw. Also they could review the account in about an hour or 2 not 3 days. This is the reason I will never play there. Like I said they have been paying slow for years. Even with money transfer which should be same day they want to take a week to send it. Unreal. They are losing business because they pay too slow.

                                            They are not the same. Bovada is an indian casino.

                                            They used to lease the Bodog name years ago.

                                              I thought bovada used to be bodog. Then bodog left the u.s market and changed the name to bovada but basically the same place. My account is the same as it was when they were bodog.

                                                  Well hell that explains it all then right there. You guys ever been to an Indian Casino in Oklahoma or something, then compare that to a Vegas style casino like any of the big names on the strip. It's like night and day.

                                                    Kahn you already broke the bank with them.

                                                    They already capped you off.

                                                            sharpangles, are you an nba props sharp? send me some plays pal.

                                                            honestly, i rarely bet live. only reason why they limited me was because i went on a crazy run on aussie football last year. yes, aussie football. but their limit was only $150 so it didn't hurt them that bad. limiting me in other sports is just unprofessional.
