    Bad News My Bookie
    My Bookie started giving me different lines over the phone in ALL events other than the ones posted online. When I started wagering online the reduced my limit to ONE dollar!! Shortly after they suspended my account for winning too much and confiscated my bonus...threatening to take 20% of my winning also because I had not completed the rollover they prevented me from doing by closing the account.....BEWARE!!

    My God! What kind of rollover was that? 50X on $1000? I mean, they could detect you winning too much before you could even fulfill the wagering requirements? What were you winning? 10 games parlays?

        I spoke with BBoots about his situation in detail. What he described is exactly what I addressed with managemnt during our visit a few months back.

        Management had assured me that in the worst case, the player would be asked to finish his roll over at Nine.com with smaller betting limits. It appears that BBoots' account was closed after being reduced to betting by phone.

        I plan to speak Mybookie shortly and will update the forum.

          same happened with me.i was limited to wagering over phone and the line they offered me was essentially pinnacles line;they normally jack up the price on favorites there and get mad if you win big on their dogs.

            well said mudcat, this is yet another fine example why people need to play at top rated books. so, these types of problem occur alot less, if any problems occur at all.

                no sir, i,m in good standing with the 9 group.however,i sent money to skill games hoping to play chess online for money and closed acct because noone to play with and it has been 2 months and i still havent gotten my $114 back-no problem but i hate to ask my bank to not honor the credit card deposit if the money isnt returned or sent to their sportsbook.i think nine.com has made a big effort to be friendly to advanced players
