Update on my bitcoin Gambling Odyssey

- Not Ready For Prime Time -

I will use no NAMES as to reduce 'heat'

I wanted to do it 'right' and with the most reputable people and was not in a hurry so...

Set up acct to transfer $$$ from Bank -> 3rd party processor

3rd party processor -> btc exchange (buy & sell btc)

btc exchange -> btc wallet

btc wallet -> sportsbook

^ all of that took 35 days to do ^

The most reputable sportsbook (Japan) booted me after 15 bets. It is his business so he can do as he pleases therefore I'm not upset

forget it

too slow and confusing and no regulation

[Sam Odom]

JJ , the concept is very interesting (not just from the gambling angle)

However, I believe the grandeur of the overall idea is only in the dreams of the few

-Update-

Received all of my bitcoins from sportsbook located in japan - took about 48hrs from the time he said he sent them after boot

Can you give a breakdown of what actually took 35 days to accomplish? I'm trying to figure which steps took all that time.
