Uh oh...

**SportsbookReview** · 04-09-13, 04:30 PM

Our call is now "first in line". Still no answer.

**SBR Natalie** · 04-09-13, 04:33 PM

Just spoke with someone and they were on hold for over 2hrs with no response!

**John Dough** · 04-09-13, 04:34 PM

Sad situation as they were an industry leader at one point.

I hope you dont have plans for this evening because you might be on hold for quite awhile LOL!

**yisman** · 04-09-13, 04:45 PM

Ha, how long do you plan on waiting on hold there?

**SportsbookReview** · 04-09-13, 04:58 PM

52 minutes and counting:

"Your call is now first in line and will be answered by the next available representative. Thank you for your patience."

I got a check on March 25th. Maybe that was their going away present? Seem to be incommunicado for days. I suspect the person holding will be holding for a LONG time.

**mighty maron** · 04-09-13, 05:10 PM

You will probably get an answer faster at WSEX than at BI

When was that payout requested?

**easyliving** · 04-09-13, 05:17 PM

wasn't there a guy who was owed around 70k or so by them? Does anyone know if he ever got paid?

**GoodVibrations** · 04-09-13, 05:20 PM

I can add they haven't graded yesterdays baseball games.

I kept playing but never asking for a payout at WSEX for obvious reasons.
Now I may be the only one thinking this way but I've always assumed if they reached a point where they had to close their doors, they would sell the WSEX domain name for ZILLIONS of dollars and pay everybody off.

I AM kinda torn because one time I was down to TEN BUCKS in my account and then ran it back up to a $1000

I guess today I'm hoping for my analogy of selling the WSEX name to be correct

**onemoregoal** · 04-09-13, 05:24 PM

It is a good domain name... world of sex.

I don't think you mean analogy. Suggestion?

Sept 2012. It was the 1st 1/3rd of a payment request.

They did grade the NCAA Championship game, however. It seems like some of their operation is on autopilot, some not. They graded a golf bet from this weekend, but still haven't graded one from 2 weeks ago. I Hope to G-d you're right about some legit place taking them over, but that should have been done years ago.

**relaaxx** · 04-09-13, 06:16 PM

R I P - favorite all time place to play - while they were paying, how many years ago was that - - 3 or 4 maybe.

**5mike5** · 04-09-13, 06:20 PM

its been down for the count for years now

really crazy that they had players still making deposits and bets over the past few years

Can't imagine they had too many/any depositors. But if you had a balance there, that you couldn't get it out except in extreme dribs and drabs over the years, why not play, hopefully get lucky and lose, although unfortunately it was tough to lose there. There are still some betting options left. Maybe I can max bet the Raptors, Kings, Magic, Suns, Cavs, Robert Guerrero, and Zab Judah and have the satisfaction of "losing" some paper money back to them.

**combination lock** · 04-09-13, 08:45 PM

Did antiqua ever get that huge settlement from the u.s? If so they should bailout wsex.

**touchback** · 04-09-13, 08:56 PM

NO.... they got a small judgement in the millions. They were sueing for billions. So now Antigua is countering by now threatening to produce and distribute copyrighted and patented materials on the grounds that the US violated the international agreement affecting their national gaming economy so they no longer have to honor copyrights and patents. The US recently responded to this within the last few months threatening financial retaliation against Antigua. This will be very interesting to say the least... guess you will see copies of movies and games and software for a fraction of its retail cost coming out of Antigua.

It was fun beating them to movement and nailing in-game lines on big plays.
RIP WSEX.

**pokernight1991** · 04-11-13, 09:55 AM

There long term markets are still working, probably because they are on auto pilot.

**touchback** · 04-13-13, 06:26 PM

Robot line movers still on auto would be my guess....

**touchback** · 04-13-13, 07:50 PM

I am surpriseed they have been solvent the last 2 years after all the problems they had and guys were still depositing...

**james19** · 04-16-13, 11:25 PM

They slow-paid me $300 for about 2 months..... then when I read on here they owed players more than a million $1,000,000 I told them to pay up immediately or I was going to call Interpol... I received my withdrawal via moneybookers later that day.
