Big difference.... Any A+ book like Bet Jamaica will pay upon closing, where a C book like BetEd stole funds.

How is 5Dimes? I have read a mix of bad/good things about them. Do they pay without problems? More importantly, have any of you who are with 5Dimes been paid?

YES, fastest payout I ever got AND I didn't have to send them 20 forms like other sportsbooks. In fact, I didn't send them anything.

5dimes is topnotch.

I've been paid, in a timely matter.

My transfer from Bet Jam to Heritage Sports went smoothly. Now I will see how their lines compare. Bet jamaica had some great lines for MLB lately. I will miss those.

No kidding. Anybody who believes this is partisan politics is out of their mind. This is all about lost tax revenue plain and simple. A good starting point is to begin by researching the The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 which repealed part of the Glass-Steagall Act of 1933. The repeal of provisions of the Glass–Steagall Act of 1933 by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act effectively removed the separation that previously existed between Wall Street investment banks and depository banks.

Essentially the big banks gambled with your money and lost. Now they want more! It's not the govt thats fukkin you over, but more so the FED. Unfortunately though the FED has the government in their back pocket. Do a google search for the tickerforum which will give a you wealth of information regarding the current political and economic situation. Folks, it's a cluster and we are letting it happen.

**Marauders** · 07-23-11, 10:56 PM

Wow....sad sad news. Can't believe BJ is shutting down. Not many good and safe books left.

**ukgaz** · 07-23-11, 10:59 PM

Man I liked the Greek

Though unable to log in to Heritage with my Greek/ BJ credentials. Have just emailed them and awaiting a response

**Mr. Peepers** · 07-23-11, 11:03 PM

RIP BJ>> we will miss you

**SamChu** · 07-23-11, 11:04 PM

**blackbart** · 07-23-11, 11:09 PM

They told me 5K.

**Art Vandelay** · 07-23-11, 11:15 PM

I've had 2 books close on me this week alone - BetGameDay and BetJam. BGD let you cash out while BJ moved to Heritage with a 10% free play added. Starting to wonder about my others...

**G's pks** · 07-23-11, 11:16 PM

Just won my first bet at heritage...

Very surprising news. I wonder what type of pressure was put on BJ to make this happen. Very big news indeed...

good grief!

another poster who doesn't bother to read stuff before coming out with crap

if you're a Yank, your money is with Heritage

Why would there have been pressure? Could just be a business decision. SBR reported here recently that Pinnacle has been more profitable after leaving the US (forgot the exact time frame, but it was mentioned)...

And we don't know how much Heritage offered.

**mminkovski** · 07-23-11, 11:55 PM

I can't login as well, the funds are not transferred to the greek. What do we do?

**CrimsonQueen** · 07-23-11, 11:57 PM

someone tell me WTF this means:

"62. Heritage Sports reserves the right to charge a $25.00 fee in the event of customer abuse of research privileges."

I also like this one:

54. Our total wagering limit for Parlays and Teasers is $1,000, if you want higher wager limits please give us a call. You can select any one team up to ONLY 3 times on your parlay and teaser combinations. Players, please keep a record of your team selections. If you select the same team (or total) in more than 3 parlays AND/OR Teasers, we can make ALL of your wagers involving that team or total a NO ACTION.

You can't use the same team in more than 3 teasers/parlays. Funny book rules, I think...

**CrimsonQueen** · 07-23-11, 11:58 PM

Holy crap... is any other book this honest?!?!

66. Heritage Sports makes available access to our online casino. When playing in the casino, it is reasonable to expect 5% losses of your total casino wagering activities.

first thing you should do is read the initial information posted about the closure

then email Greek and tell them your BJ account number
