Is sportsbook.ag now closed to new USA based accounts?

USA not mentioned in the terms but it's missing from the country list on the sign up form.

Yep. All of Merge network stopped taking NEW USA players as of about a month ago. Sportsbook/Carbon/PlayersOnly/HollywoodSports/BetUSA/BetonUSA and whatever other ones on the network.
If you have an account at one of those sites you can continue to play.

Could someone with clout look into the reasoning behind this?

Wait, so if we use sportsbook in usa we don't get paid?

How did you come to that conclusion from what was said? They are still paying out just not accepting new USA players right now.

Well I'm in that boat that is why I am asking this.

If you mean you are experiencing a delay on your payout, then you really should have done your research beforehand and seen the recent history of this bookmaker. If you had have done, you would have known to expect issues, or even better you would have decided not to bet with them in the first place.

If you aren't using Bitcoin you can expect to wait over a month for sure. Bitcoin takes 10-14 days typically though. It's not that hard to set up and you'll get your money way faster.

If you are using Sportsbook for actual sports betting I'm not too sure why. They do have lots of instant bonuses and free bets but as far as lines they suck pretty badly. I use them as a poker site as the games are fairly soft and I don't mind the 10-14 days with Bitcoin

I don't understand either.

Are you saying you are now in the USA and want to make a new sportsbook.ag account?
