    SIA player's advisory
    There are two complaints where players had funds confiscated, and there are others I am working on. All of them have one thing in common: a player has $7500 - $20000 there. In each instance, the balance is seized, usually when a withdrawal request is made.

    Professional players like SIA because they are easy to beat. That said..

    Keep your balance at SIA below $5000. It looks like you're less likely to have your money confiscated, AND if you do, your loss is much less. If you're a pro, keep your balance low there.

    I have recommended that SBR downgrade SIA based on their treatment of winning players.

      This book has been like this for as long as I've been on these forums Justin. They were making some improvement there for a while, but reverted back to there old ways a few months back. As far as the downgrade goes. Well, I would agree with you and they should be downgraded, but I don't make the rating.

          Justin,

          Can you tell us a bit more. The last person I heard that had money there had multiple accounts and played the same game, etc. Is this the same complaint.

            Hanco,

            Read the threads here on SIA. There are two confiscation cases where the facts are out. Two more players have contacted me - one on a confisaction, and another on a 1-month slow-pay for a winning account (which suggests to me that they will find an excuse to label him a cheater, and not pay him).

              Thanks for the info Justin. I have been reading the threads and I was just curious about the other confiscation. I knew one complaint was a syndicate move and the other was a non-neteller payout, etc. Anyways keep up the good work.

                Justin SBR's word is practically gold to me now. This forum is filled with tons of angle shooters trying to pull fast ones, and I remember visiting this site years ago when warnings and downgrades would come at the drop of a hat.

                Nowadays there is excellent merit and research done on practically every book, and I really appreciate this heads up as well as heads ups on new book openings that are associated with con artists from the past. Thanks for the great work...

                  Good post. You're right too. We take time to make moves now. Justin does a fine job and just continues to get better and better.

                  Even an obvious downgrade such as this one will take at least a little time. We need to know all the details and debrief Justin and anyone else involved. Then we may not agree inhouse on the degree of downgrade.

                  This one is paticulary dissapointing. We have worked for several years to help SIA do a better job. Now we seem to be back at square one.

                    They paid me $2500 yesterday, same day wd ! You never can tell if it will be same day or 4 days there. I tend to play less there after NFL is over. I can usually beat their lines on anything but NFL.

                    Maybe the fees for wd's will make them faster ? They have one a month now, free.
