    How much cash would you trust leaving in each of these 4 books?

    Serious question here....in terms of your money being safe. At what amount would you start to worry?

    5dimes
    Heritage
    Bookmaker
    Betislands

    I know Legends isnt ranked up there with the others, buuut I have a Legends, 5dimes, and Heritage account. I have withdrawn from all three and Legends, without question, is the fastest and easiest. I had 2k in my account and withdrew. It was in my bank account in 2-3 days. Legends sucks because they dont offer overnight lines, which is a travesty, but I like betting with them because I know I'll see my money. BOL.

    Because of the threat of a shutdown, would not leave anymore than $500-1k in an overseas book for US customers. I guess it all depends on how much you are comfortable losing in case some funny business goes on.

    I don't have it, but I think I would leave 20,000 in bookmaker. They just have a good reputation in that regard.

    you wouldn't have any problem with 300K at betCRIS
    I wouldn't leave more than 10K at 5 Dimes not that they wouldn't pay you but he does/did offer lines on high school games from the US which probably paints a target, better to be safe
    Heritage 50K

    Pointless question as the answer varies from one person to the next depending upon several factors like risk tolerance, net worth, etc.

    I don't think it's any secret that the US government has targeted these books and have shown a willingness to take action to put them out of business. It's only a matter of time before they up the ante and the seizure of funds would certainly not be out of the question.

    Granted, it's easy for me to say as I can play at the world's best books and don't need to take on the greatly increased risk of playing at the US serving ones.

    And Hareeba you are right about what youve said in this thread. If I lived in Europe I'd be using pinnacle and netteller as well.

    Is there any way of getting the money out quickly if you have such a large amount? Most of these books only let you do one payout a week. Thanks
