    I'd Be Concerned A Bit If You Play At HR Wager
    I hear there has been a recent change on their withdraw methods. P2p 1k max a week and you could request a 3k mon-e order which will take 3 weeks. This is not a good sign for them. It looks like they are having money issues and banking on player deposits to hopefully pay off these other people. I really don't think they'll finish the season. I was going to deposit a few weeks ago but after seeing this I won't. Also I went on live chat and asked if I deposited a couple hundred what would my limits be. They told me 150 or 200. That is what swayed me, but after reading this at EOG, I'd head for the hills and try to get your cash out ASAP.

    I'm taking this stance based on many factors, especially the feasibility of getting common mon-e orders, even in Costa Rica.

    They are a book being run out of a PPH shop so of course it brings up red flags galore and it's probably a good idea to keep a miniumal type balance there at this time. The rule of thumb for new books still applies here and that is.... The first three months your fairly safe and anything after that you turn into a true gambler.

    People need to keep on top of things with smaller establishments like this because you never know it could turn out to be a diamond in the rough. But it sounds to me like they need to get their processing issues more streamlined.

      Hey Dan, it's been a long time. When is the wheel of banishment coming back?

      I was wrong about what happened with BI. That event made me a bit wiser. Just seems to me like it isn't worth the risk now. I guess now of the major books are not worth the risk now, but this is some added extra risk with them. Thinking they are using Jim's money to pay Jeff and buting time hoping for the best. Call it a bold prediction, which I don't think it is, but there are danger signs.

        The limits sucked there. Decided not to use them anymore after 2 small deposits last month. Lol at only being able to risk 100 per team even if in 2 dif parlays. Limits based on your deposit ammounts, bubble gum book. Only positive was they will give you the 100% FP on a min deposit, which is rare for small deposits.

          It's a very small book and not run right

          Those books don't last

          No new book does

            Does make it harder on rollover when they make such small limits.

              How are you doing sir.

              I know their is risks with books like this and thats why somebody needs to stay on top of things but since I am not an employee at SBR I'm not going to take on a full time job like that.

              BTW, I'm well aware of your concerns in every light and I can't say your wrong. So being a veteran poster I'm sure you know what to do about this establishment.

                  Agenda? Seems the same talk coming from Gummy Bears himself. There is no agenda, only calling out BS when you have a BS excuse of why funny orders take 30 days. The way he described the process of why it takes so long is comparable to sneaking over the Berlin Wall. You people can think for yourself. I say there is cash problems. We aren't talking shecks, we're talking phunny orders.

                    Pinky Pinky why the name calling? You started a thread dissing a rival sportsbook is all. The book you work for took MONTHS paying players via sheck and you're bitching about a three week 3k m-order turn around? I don't know much about this sportsbook, but limiting players coming in is a better business model than BI had. I haven't uncovered any serious dirt over at EOG either which makes one wonder why you're on the attack. On the flip side if you have uncovered anything serious minus them being pussies with limits let us know. You might be correct in your assumptions as is JJ, but it comes off shady. And, phunny orders ain't notin but a G-ting playa hate-a!

                                Nick I in no-way-shape-or-form have ANY association with hrwager or wagerweb. Why would you assume that? I was just pointing out that Pinky seemed to have some agenda against another sportsbook. I could give a shit about either of them.

                                    I concur sir.

                                    Now as long as it's well known that their a recreational type shop or a gentlemen's agreement as been reached with professional type players upfront then their should be no problems as long as the processing issues are acceptable within the current parameters of the industry.

                                      I don't think either of us work for a book. I can confirm I don't.
