My fingers are crossed for you guys and every time I log on this is one of the first threads I check hoping that there's some good news in here. But to be honest, I just have a bad feeling for some reason. I truly hope I'm wrong and I'm just being too cynical but the fact that there hasn't been a response yet leaves me feeling uneasy. Then again, maybe these things take longer than I assume they do and I'm just being naive expecting that a book would've jumped at this offer by now. Let's hope tomorrow brings some good news for all of you.

From reading some of the threads across the street, it is possible that there could be more than one offer on the table and that could be the part that is taking a while. At least i hope thats the case. I find it almost impossible to believe that beted wouldnt allow another book to bail their asses out so at least their customers get paid.My fingers are crossed for you guys and every time I log on this is one of the first threads I check hoping that there's some good news in here.

Also, i thought i read this somewhere....but Shari, do you know if covers owns any part of beted or are related to them in any way, other than just advertsing for them??? Maybe covers is looking to make a few bucks at everyones expenseComment -
You wont get a fukkin dime back guys please go post up at 5dimes and quit whining!!!Comment -
I was mad at BETED before, but if they don't take one of these offers, i might chase them down and get mideval on their assComment -
we gota give it a bit of time at least, too early to panic or go ape shit. just sit tight. its in everyones best interest this gets done.Comment -
I feel bad for their customers but hears the reality of it. They grabbed the biggest duffle bag they could find, stuffed it so fat, they can't zip the $hit up and are peddling as fast as they could. It's almost like dealing with a chick, if they were interested in any productive the customers would've of heard something, anything out of their camp. That's my opinion anyway.Comment -
Oh almost forgot i read an article and guess what the cops are doing with this seized money in Maryland, they have awarded 450k to some county police department to buy new undercover cars. Not to mention there holding a big check like they hit the lotto with big smiles a bunch of thieves if u ask me, instead of paying off some debt they need new cars hahahahaha.Comment -
Time is the enemy of these deals. The acquiring book begins to wonder if the database has been altered, seeded with bogus accounts or copied. Or all three. We all have our fingers crossed this deal will not fall through but every day that goes by lessens the chances.Comment -
.... And by them I mean the Feds... Is that even legal. So they seized assets from what they claim is an illegal operation but legal in the country of origin then proceed to STEAL it. I have one question, why didn't you hear anything like that happen on black Friday?Comment -
could a book get in trouble with the feds for giving money to beted? is that some kind of accomplice behavior or something?
I mean, if my neighbor was getting indicted for something, i don't think i'd be comfortable handing him cash to defend himself or something.Comment -
See this is what I was afraid of. I hadn't thought of the bogus accounts but more of the bailout book worrying about tampering with the database or BetEd taking a copy of their own before turning it over.
COME ON BETED AND ACCEPT THE BLOODY BAILOUT OFFER! TODAY IS THE 8TH DAY

What a wave of emotions. I go from seeing the book is dead and writing off a chunk of money (almost 10k) and then I see this post and I'm thinking........WWTS + Bodog all over again. In my opinion, WWTS + Bodog worked out phenomenally for both parties. WWTS players thought their balances were gonzo, but at the end of the day, both parties could hold their heads up high after that deal was done...EVERYONE benefited, including the players (who had their full balances transferred). If you are involved with BedEd, I would IMPLORE YOU to jump at this opportunity.Comment -
Its amazing the arrogance of beted not to jump at any deal that would take care of their customers since they have closed up shopComment -
Crossing fingers for Bet Ed customers!!Comment -
Hope we heard something tonightComment -
I Hope you don't mind me commenting here. As we are on the same side on this one....
Will agree here that Time is going to Kill this deal, and the fact that I heard that the "Boys" from Covers are down in CR trying to work a Deal ( not the same Book as John is talking about )
I feel that now that it has been a little over a week since the First offer has been on the Table. Too many People have their hands in the Cookie jar.
The First offer was a Slam Dunk and Sweetheart Deal. There should have been NO reason not to take it.
BetEd is dragging their feet and I have a feeling that someone is trying to help sabotage this Deal.Comment -
So COvers is fukking it for all the BetED players?Comment -
In the 10 years we have been doing these deals i've never seen a book refuse and partner up with a promoter to shop the deal around.
Just so folks understand the book that has offered to make good on BetEd's debt would be on the hook for whatever BetEd owes lets say its $2 million. Its like a bank taking everyone's money and selling the bank for what is suppose to be on deposit.
I can only assume that in some way BetEd is partnered with a promoter and they want to up sell the deal so they are playing that angle. The danger is the A rated book starts to figure out they are dealing with greedy slimeball type guys and they sour on the deal. BetEd players are then stuck with an SBG Global or nothing at all.
The initial offer should have been quickly accepted that way the acquiring book would not have the ability to reconsider.Comment -
I have a good feeling about this, I feel they are working out a better deal with another book.Comment -
Beted will do the wrong thing as they always have the players are screwed. Sorry fellasComment -
They will come thru with a planComment -
An A+ book plus offered a bailout, Beted didnt jump on it and then a third party is trying to broker a deal with a low rated book? Something smells rotten in Denmark.Comment -
Hope your right Dixon but I actually have a bad feeling about this. It sounds like sbr came up with a great deal with an A+ rated book and covers is fuking everything up. Im not sure how, but i think covers is connected to beted, more so than just advertising for them.Comment -
I'm hoping that everything works out for you guys.I just really hate these scumbags-especially if they refused Legendz for SBG or something like that.BOL GuysComment -
Lol at covers:

Lol..Its funny covers calling others clowns when it is looking like Lou and Freedom are this biggest clowns on any forum anywhere. Notice freedom supposedly went to discuss this with them 2 days ago and we havnt heard shit since. What a joke they are turning out to be.Comment -
I'm hopeful for all the players involved that this one works out for you...Comment
