7 Years ago this Month The Greek Sportsbook left US

[Sam Odom]

Left USA bettors behind

BetJam too

What is their Volume today ?

[Hman]

Bet Jam & Scotty was the best ever.

They were the originators is creating/finding new funding methods.

Contests & giveaways galore.

There will never be a more courteous book.

[Foxx]

Seems like it was longer.

[Sam Odom]

Seems like it was longer.

Sammy could be wrong

was going through some old papers and that was the last date for Oly

[Sam Odom]

any old timers remember when TheShrink tried to blackmail Greek like he did so many other books ?

Spiros told Kenny to 'Fuuk Off' and said he would have his head bashed in

Later on things cooled off and Ken put Oly's banner back up for little to no ad fee

[Hman]

I just looked & still have some old Bet Jam contest banners with 2011 so you are about right.

But it definitively seems longer.

[DroopyDog]

Is the greek still figuring out how to add bitcoin payouts? lol

[k13]

I still use it.

[jjgold]

Sammy tons better

It’s for tiny people now

[big joe 1212]

Is Bet Jamaica’s poker “still coming soon?”

[Optional]

The Greek still exactly the same as it was 7 years ago.

Reliable, posts markets early, polite and useful support people. Don't think the website has changed at all either. Still simple and easy to find everything.

Wasn't there some rhubarb with the DOJ tied to it? Processors and what not? The comment about bitcoin and today's environment is well taken. Wonder if they could come back now?

Let's just day they had no choice but to bail out

I think one other factor is/was the Jamaican govt pursuing a compensation award against the USA for restraint of trade or something like that, and them not wanting local books hurting that.

But The Greek is owned by an Irish company now.

[ManosdePiedra]

Greek still not payout via BTC?

[Chi_archie]

I loved BetJam

Greek still not payout via BTC?

No. Deposits only.

[Hman]

I loved BetJam

I still have some cc-card type cards for $25 & $100 free plays we were given stacks of to hand out at a bash.

Will try to post some pics later.

[biggie12]

thegreek was the best for arbing nba 2nd halves opened quicker then pinny sometimes by minutes

[KVB]

Left USA bettors behind

BetJam too

What is their Volume today ?

Nobody is left behind, Sammy, not with today's technology.

I love The Greek, and their early lines.

[Reload]

Was a great book all around. The second one I ever joined and was my favorite until the end.

Use to do well with the halftime lines, horse matchup props, and even the online blackjack. Their direct marketing with the monthly schedule book was nice too.

[vitterd]

I miss the Greek. Now have heritage which is ok but brutally long for payouts.

Thankfully should be easy to bet in pa by next month....then my offshore days are over!!

[JIBBBY]

I was one of those OG American bettors that had an account and was left behind by the Greek... I miss that book even to this day...

[jjgold]

Heritage 10x better

[xKMACKx]

Never had an issue there, been using it for around ten years and haven't had to contact customer support other than to request a payout and change my address. Always paid 4-5 figures within 1 hour to an ewallet, then in my bank account 2-3 days. Won a few weekly NFL contests there too and they always paid those quickly.

[RonPaul2008]

March 2007, after the passage of the Safe Ports Act which cotained UIEGA buried inside, Pinnacle, Neteller, and a whole host of British, Australian, and other book left the U.S. market. That was the worst.

easy money before this, thank you bush and conservative republicans, you suck.

[TheGuesser]

Heritage 10x better

Heritage is great, and I'm glad they stepped up to take Bet Jam and Oly's US players. But Bet Jam especially, and Oly are sorely missed.

[KVB]

Love Heritage too.

They have been as good to me as any book can be.

The Greek was one awesome book. Great offerings. And like u say, probably the easiest site to use.

[vitterd]

Heritage 10x better

Not even close. Heritage is fine but Greek was much better with spiro and Wally. Heritage custom service is pretty bad. Payouts take forever.

Heritage customer service just like anyone else - they give the bests perks -

[OTWinner]

Used many sports books in the early 2000s.
Olympic sports was one of the best.
A wide variety of opinions to bet on.
Also great management. The owner Spiro bailed out players from bankrupt sports books by matching there balance.
Also probably helped make heritage the best online Sportsbook for US customers today.

[KDOWNS]

Does anyone know if Scotty from Betjam is still in the business?

[KVB]

I miss the WSEX option trading platform.

Oh the sick nights and days at that screen.

Talk about volatility.
