    its nice to see my balance is up there but i want it to be known for the record that it is short 4k. Jon told me a wire was sent close to 2 months agoo but it never came. He had to keep it to such a small amount because otherwise it would raise a red flag. Wire never came, no red flag was raised. but i am owed 45xxx+4000. 49xxx. for the record. thanks sbr.

Someone had a large bankroll or hit it big on a huge parlay possibly like hitting the lottery. I sure feel for them if that is the case if it was a big hit on a good weekend. I sure would love to see them post here and explain how it got to that much.

    I have a few questions for you Bubba? How much did you start with and how much did you win or lose there? Did you take withdrawals out often there? Did you let it get to a certain amount then you try to take withdrawals? That sounds like an awful lot of money to be in an offshore book.

    he was a sharp. some sharps are millionaires and bet 100k at once on a single game. I remember when justin7 posted here that a friend of his placed a 100k bet on a NFL side and the line didn't move a cent

    so for some, 250k is the equivalent of 3 bets on NFL because they have a massive bankroll

    You have an excellent point. That may be why. That makes a little sense.

    Be glad you didn't get a bad check from them and had to pay them terrible bounced check fees.

    i dont know how much i started with and how much i own lost. i use about 5 books and i gamble large. I was even on the season between all my outs and up at betislands. not sure the number and frankly at this time not worth the effort to figure it out.

    30k was like a decent number for me to have there with the juicy lines they offered (and i trusted them thanks to the sbr banner). once my balance got above that i attempted withdrawls. Did this last year too but they actually paid me. i was overly comftorable due to the sbr endorsement and them paying me last year and jon paying me at wagercheif. i mean i have all sorts of emails and stuff from jon guaranteeing me payment going towards the middle of december. i think it was december 8th the last time he told me all was good. I basically started to withdraw sometime in novemeber. they sent me some **/** instead of checks but those ammounts are nearly immaterial compared to my balance. jon said he sent me a 4k wire that never came. jon offered me a trasnfer to my hertiage account. he said he was "tight" with the guys over there. i gave him my account number about a month ago. he seemed legit, wanred me a 4 time roll over. he never sent any $ there.

    They allowed players to wager much more than that, depending on some variables, such as deposit size and bonus taken.
