My ODDDSMAKER experiment

[betplom]

Received a "free" $100 offer in the mail (how these fukks got my home address is unknown).

All I have to do to claim my "free $100""

1) Go to: www.oddsmaker.com/join
2) signup using provided promo info
3) start winning because the free $100 will be credited to my account.

So I'm going to signup and see how it goes, I don't plan on making a deposit - I simply want to see what happens should I turn my $100 into something and try to cashout.

Will update this thread should anything interesting happen.

I suspect Oddsmaker aren't as bad as many claim they are.

I have played at DCSC without issue and they are a D rated book.

They have a bad rating because they stiff on promos n slow pay. BUT there slow pay is consistant and it dosent change, always took 3 weeks to get a check always came on the 3rd week so its not like they were all over the place

I have no intention of playing with them using my money, I may have tried them out but they do not offer moneybookers - which is a must for me.

So many better places to play than oddsmaker that offer fast moneybookers payouts.

Most likely scenario is another book you play/played at sold or shared your info.

Ever notice how if you donate to one charity you get all sorts of requests in the mail from other charities? Info is sold and/or traded.

No idea. Unlikely you were picked at random from the phone book.

Did you sign up at a book to enter a free contest on the forum without depositing at that book? That could mean a book has your info without you playing at that book.

they are straight crooks. if you win they will add something to their rules page to stop having to pay out.

BEWARE

BEWARE

The rules are very clear, it states parlays or teasers wagered with bonus money voids all winnings.

I won't be making any of these types of wagers.

My chances of making a second wager with oddsmaker aren't looking very good at the moment anyway.

i got $300 and played it in the casino a long time ago.. lost it all

but something never felt right about them.. at the time, I only had one book.. so I know where they got my info..

since then, I keep getting promos for 300% cash back, double cash with limited rollover, etc.. but since sbr has (had? haven't checked) them as a D book, I never even considered sending in my money..

good luck and follow the rules.. don't give them a chance to stiff ya..
