Anyone Play At Gamebookers?

**tap** · 08-31-05, 08:08 AM

I have an account there for 3 years, they have big variaty of special soccer bets. They offers many american sports, even pre season matches for nhl and nfl, motor sports, snooker. My problem for them is that many times on lower soccer leagues and on game handicap bets on tennis, they have low limits. No problem for payouts, I use moneybookers and my credit card.

I have an account there for back up and play some exotic bets there

Great as you say for soccer and Euro stuff

They make quite a few errors posting lines on American sports resulting in settled bets being voided. Most bettors don't like wondering if their bet will stick. They would really benefit from using rot #s.

I bet on gamebookers for more than two years. Never had a problem.

I upload funds using moneybookers and CC. Good thing for CC is that they have 0% commision, which is great.

The payment system is very good and quick and they have the payfriends option (you can send money to a friends account and receive too)

Never had a bet void (I mostly bet on european soccer games, handball,mlb, but I wish they had more options available). I love the winning margin kaind of bet with them (or the european handicap).

They do have a limit on lower leagues (specially leagues from countries that are not so "well known")

Definately a plus is that they let you see what is the limit they accept on each game before you bet.
And finally they don't slash the odds, so easily as other companies do.

This is a very solid book that most americans do not know about

don´t win to much here/for some period. I got a friend with balance of about 10000$ he tried to withraw.

he had to wait 6 month or so cause he already exceeds his withrawal-limit for some period. finally he got his funds 6 months or so later.

this happened about a year ago and when he told me this, I take my funds away from there.

be very careful here. smaller balance is okey.

Dif your correct but a great books for guys betting $50 and under

**tap** · 09-01-05, 10:51 PM

DIF, I would like to hear more detailes about it, firstly are you sure that the problem was from gamebookers and not moneybookers ?

**DIF** · 09-02-05, 04:02 AM

tap. yes Im sure it was gamebookers he got problem with(if I remember correctly). they told him that they got limits/period for withrawals.(please check this with gamebookers and send them an email)

I know. moneybookers as well got limits/period but in this case it was clearly gamebookers that slow played him.

at least he finally gets paid. there was a lot of emailwork too here. gamebookers really sucked in this case. thats for sure.

myself never got any problems with them so this was a surprise for me too.

Well I haven't heard that before from any fellow punter that I know, almost all of them have a gamebookers account for years. It might be true, recently things have change on their site, for example you can get full **** card withdrawls nodays, so I guess that's for the best. On past years you could only withdrawn back to the card equal amount of money, in which you had deposit from the card. But now it's okey.

2 years ago they confiscated all money from the most famous tennis handicapper in Russia-Gloomer,

and now nobody in Russia want to play there.

Here is the story

Some negative views here on the book and I wil take into consdieration

**tap** · 09-02-05, 08:50 AM

Michael that link is in russian, can you tell us in English the resume of the story ? By the way, if I remember that few months ago, gamebookers didn't allow punters from certain countries like Bulgarians, I don't know if they keep doing it.

**Michael** · 09-02-05, 09:05 AM

Original message that Gloomer received from GB in that link is in english.

**tap** · 09-02-05, 09:10 AM

Hoho, I read about it, maybe I have to do the same with Globet, about the case I have ( they owe to my mother 13000 euros), maybe I should have threatened them about posting the story all our around the world. But I'm sure that IBAS will give her the money.

Anyway I've been betting there 3 years, almost any punter that I know have an account there, I haven't heard any other negative thing, besides that they don't allow Bulgarians. Maybe they are sensitive about eastern european punters ? Maybe they are afraid fixed soccer matches ? Have you heard anything else like that for them ?
