Your money is safe with them. And from what Ive heard they pay fast.Comment -
Thats what I figured all along. They seem to be one of the biggest/best books on the net. Where do you play?Comment -
For a slightly different perspective, you may want to check out this thread...

The pro is they pay.
The con will be Calvin Ayre if he ever steps foot back in the country.

Pros: Excellent betting interface, good selection of bets, live in game betting, great book for playing underdogs
Cons: Taking too long to get paid, excessive fees when withdrawaling, questionable future/safety of funds, poor bonusesComment -
The biggest pro is bodog's setup. They have all the games in order of time, unlike betjam which pisses me off looking for a game thats about to start and I have to look though 200 games and its all the way near the bottom, those fukers. Also bodog keeps the games up and shows the closing lines and it shows current scores. I love their setup, its the best.Comment -
Wow I just read that entire thread that took me almost 15 minutes. Are they really taking two months to payout? Damn... that is a long time. I think I am going to request a payout now and play at another sportsbook.
Here is a question. I play from Maryland... the states. What poker room would you guys suggest that has the ease interface such as bodog? as said it is very easy to use. I have heard of 5dimes, and pinnacle, but do they accept US debit/cedit cards? right now with bodog I have to use giftcards to deposit, because my bank doesnt support gaming transactions(at least I think thats what it is)Comment -
they will pay pretty fast by money transferComment -
Yeah but I bet their are huge fees, and do you know if they transfer to Maryland?Comment -
CON
if you happen to win , you wont get paid in under 90 days and if you do get a check it might bounce , what else do you need to know?
THEY ARE DONEComment -

3 dimes costs $150, any other number higher percentageComment -
Damn $150???? I only have a hundred bucks in there as of now.Comment -
i think it is $40 if you wanted your cashComment -
but i just mean 3k is best deal % wiseComment -
That's precisely the problem. Their processing is watered down right now, no one wants to wait 40 biz days to get paid so they're panicking and mass withdrawing, all that will do is keep people waiting beyond 40 days. For $100, you're better off playing in the account with it as you intended to, and hope by the time you're ready to cash out some of the smoke has cleared. For an amount that small though, I'd play with it until you lose it and redeposit at a place like 5dimes or Bet Jamaica. If you run it up, just be ready for a hell of a wait. No sense having deposited the hundred immediately withdrawing and waiting for 40+ business days without having placed a bet.Comment -
That is actually exactly what I intended on doing. $100 bucks is still $100 bucks, but Im glad I dont have 1,000 in their either. I have been paid by them in the past, but this was some time ago.
I think I am going to give 5dimes a shot, eventually. As long as I can get a fedex envelope to my door once a month for free, I like it. The problem is depositing is so inconvenient for most other sites.Comment
