    UNBELIEVABLE $92.00 fees for $1,000 payout from LEGENDS sportsbook!

    Is $92.00 "a normal fee" nowadays for $1,000 ** payout or I got ripped???? That was close to 10% fees!

    Freaking UNBELIEVABLE!

    Imagine if the Vegas cashier cages charged for withdrawals.

    Sucks, but they have to pay someone to send it, in addition to the normal xfer costs.

    10% of your roll is a lot, but that is the nature of the offshore business these days.

    Seems like the only thing that Legends offers is that they always pay. Lines seem below average with the exception of an occasional dog value and fees seem to be high. Seems to be plenty of better options even for Americans.

    If I were forced to pay a 10% withdrawal fee, I would stop playing!

    Hmm... I usually can get a free payout once a month at most books I am at. I just signed up with Legends about a week ago, had a small issue with my deposit bonus, but they cleared it up quickly. I am going to have to look into this $90 fee thing, because that is crazy!

    They do you a service...10% is easy to live with. They take risk as well as have people to pay to make it happen.

    Good grief!

    "10% is easy to live with".

    It is almost impossible for the majority of sportsbettors to beat -110 lines.
    Now we have a genius telling us that "10% is easy to live with" as a withdrawal fee.
    Any sportsbettor paying 10% for withdrawals cannot win.

    8 - 10% is pretty average. You need to remember, the one who will get blasted if caught is not you. The processors charges for its risk, and the book will pass the charge along, it is the nature of the industry. Want cheaper stuff, go local or go to Vegas, but get ready to cry for far worst lines than your "-110 impossible lines".

    Many sportsbooks pay their affiliates a portion of the banking fees generated from player deposits/withdrawals. One of my players cashed out yesterday, and my commission on it was $16.

    Generally 20 cent lines (-110/-110), but props are usually a 30 cent line (-115/-115).
    And futures are a horrendous ripoff.

    if you are wagering anything besides major 4 sports, then offshore odds are WAY better

    besides that u arent gaining anything offshore, vegas is fine
