What is your balance at BetIslands?

**jjczar** · 12-19-12, 07:45 AM

2K with some pending futures. Holding out that SBR might use their influence/connections to help Ryan merge with a bigger book and salvage $$. I suppose that there is someone out there that would agree to use BI owed $$ as a deposit bonus match. Would likely have a roll but better than nothing. And, would be a chance for bigger book to get new clients and/or new $$. SBR could pitch in somehow

Mid four figures. Same thing happened with Actionbets a few years back. I got paid. But at least I could talk to the guy. His name was Aden. Jon Kreta has some guts apologizing here, and walking away. Does he think we're all pussies who don't know how to take care of things?

**BigPapi** · 12-19-12, 09:22 AM

the "apology" was asinine and insulting to say the least

**Tgordon777** · 12-19-12, 11:15 AM

guess its over, website no longer working, had 842 in my account.

**Miz** · 12-19-12, 11:20 AM

I never did get my screen shot, but $4200 into the wind.

Owed a sizeable rebate, I played and lost heavy their 4 months ago with promise of a nice rebate at season end.

In retrospect, I was very lucky. I do feel a lot of bonus whores/arbitrage players got burned here and it sucks, but such is this twisted game we all play.

Its called gambling for a reason and someones going to get burned always (book or player).

**rdforster2** · 12-20-12, 09:01 PM

798....thank God it wasn't more. This could have been MUCH worse.

On another note, I did email that address on betislands.mx and received the following response:

"There have been efforts to obtain secondary financial backing since the closing. As negotiations continue, I will be informing Betislands clients of any potential progress. - Ryan Rossi"

Not exactly spending that $$$ at this point, but like "Dumb and Dumber", so "you're saying there's a chance?" Basically, we are all eff'd

**goombah** · 12-20-12, 09:21 PM

5384. I feel so wronged as SBR was the one's that led me there. And I read every thread to see if there were warning signs. SBR was complicit in the robbery.

**pokernut9999** · 12-20-12, 10:37 PM

Never deposited there

**15805** · 12-20-12, 11:29 PM

Never heard of Bet islands till I joined SBR about 5 months ago! Depositied money for one reason, SBR posters voted it one of top 5 favorite books and the other 4 I knew were very solid.

I can see why posters liked Bet Islands. The odds were so easy to scalp it was like they were novices. For instance I guess I bet with them their last day in business on the Jets Titan game. They had SCORE IN LAST 2 MINUTES 1ST HALF -150 &
5 Dimes had no score at 210.

1682 left there when they closed.

Why don't you guys just scalp it out?

The question was what is your balance at betislands..if you never deposited there than this thread obviously wasn't meant for you..a lot of tards here at SBR.

**Miz** · 12-21-12, 10:54 AM

From me 2 days ago:

I'd just like you to confirm my balance for my records. I never got a screen shot of my balance, but I had $4201 in there. Not that I expect to get any of it back, but just in case the remote possibility is there, I'd like confirmation of my balance.

From Ryan Rossi this morning:

$2,726 (avail)$1,474 (pend)
$4,200 (total)

There have been efforts to obtain secondary financial backing since the closing. As negotiations continue, I will be informing Betislands clients of any potential progress.

**Miz** · 12-21-12, 10:57 AM

Not that this means jack sht, but i thought others would want to know

**tgobygun** · 12-21-12, 01:44 PM

$18K... ultimately no one to blame but my stupid ass self for keeping that much in one book. The free half points clouded by judgement.

Anyone had any luck with bail outs?

You are right , they deposited there.

So your point was to come in a thread to show others you were smart enough to not deposit there..everyone is proud of you.

**Tgordon777** · 12-21-12, 03:01 PM

anybody scored some type of bailout anywhere?

**JasonDC** · 12-21-12, 03:11 PM

Nobody ever seems to answer this directly, it seems it's all hearsay, people will say they heard of other people who are getting taken care of..or people will mention a book such as legends who is rumored to be interested..but if you reply asking for details as to what they heard.. no reply. I haven never seen anyone come in here with specifics about what they were offered and by whom which leads me to believe it's all BS.

I commented because you posted in a thread that didn't apply to you in any way..the question was what is your balance at betislands..you said you never deposited there so obviously you didn't have a balance..what was the point of your post?

"scalping it out" of a book that wont pay is exactly the same as just making normal bets with the rest of your bankroll.

It only gets your money out of the bad book in your mind.

Plus scalping is a really bad idea as you could easily go on tilt and lose much more/everything.

**pensfan1919** · 12-23-12, 10:15 AM

Hope you guys know that "Ryan Rossi" is still in bed with "Jon".

If he comes up with a bailout, it will be at Jon's new shop and will probably require a deposit.

And then the scam just keeps going.
