    Of course, if he loses that "extra bet" then he is an even bigger fool? Being the top moron, I suppose you win all your "extra bets". Your moniker is quite apt, and makes you labeling anyone else a fool rather ridiculous.

    Had a similar issue last week with DSI which is also part of the BetCris group and they wanted $65 for a cheque. I complained and told them that I've played your standard crappy -110 lines, met your 10x rollover, and complied by your rollover terms of what is 'won' gets counted towards the rollover vs what is risked. The manager dropped the fee down to $40 and I had enough Betpoints to cover that so it was not an easy experience for a payout via cheque. I should mention though that they do offer a free payout via DC which I've never tried yet but I believe there is a hidden fee called an activation fee for that also.

    most books charge nearly 70$ - 85$
    for example betphoenix charges 70$ too....

    but I can't understand why bookmaker is an A+ book? 20 cent lines, 70$ payout charging, 100$ book to book transfer charging
    and so overrated book...maybe somebody will say "but it is a safe and secure book" sorry but if you care about just safe and security, put your money to a Swiss Bank...

    Been playing at CRIS/BM for years and recently added DSI

    Bottomline , I trust them with my $$$ all things considering

    I do not ask for many w/d (when I'm lucky) - maybe only 3x per yr

    Sign up for the DC option.

    Signing up is a pain but once it set up payouts are seemless (give or take a few business days)

    Another reason why 95 percent of these shops will be closed the day we legalize sports betting throughout the U.S.

    that is why when you sign up with a book you ask them what the payout fees are

    that way you are not surprised when it comes time to cash out.

    its 65 dollars who cares? You shouldnt be withdrawing such small amounts or gambling for that matter if 65 dollars bothers you so much. They offer plenty of ways to avoid the fee, start looking closer.

    lol. Don't you get free withdrawls with player points from BM? and how's their cash out process? What's the average time? I've been playing with the same $500 bucks there for months, unfortunately never turned a profit yet to try to cash out...

    Their withdrawals are pretty steep, but they do have a nice cash back program. Especially if you're a diamond member.
