I have not logged on to my bookmaker account in a month, because I have not seen a price worth betting. Just do not go around defending shady books with brain dead arguments, so I can stop making pointless posts as well. Thanks

    BetOnline is notorious for this kinda bullshit, even if the so called poster is lying which is a good possibility with BO's shady past how can you not just assume the book is taking yet another stab at players funds. Kinda ironic its constantly happening at this book and not many others

    Is it worth noting i have NEVER read about this happening at 5Dimes (they have poker and a casino) or any other top rated book, yet there is a complaint like this one every couple of months?

    I bring bad news, look at their traffic in alexa. This site is going down.
    7 day 0.0015% -7%
    1 month 0.00164% -36%
    3 month 0.00223% -79%

    betonline has a traffic of over 80k, 5dimes 38k globaly. Sites with low ranking are more dangerous. 60k is just too much money to be placed in a country where the minimum salary is $252.00 USD a month. So 60k might be enough for 20 years. Is is like 300k for an american.

    Shouldn't be a problem. BOL has never paid a winning poker player without first claiming chip dump.

    With a balance of over 60k and cashouts pending? (I've only cashed out once at BOL but I remember having to log into their software to check the status of my pending withdraw....)

    I'll wait for SBR's opinion but.....

    If there was chip dumping involved it might have not occurred through BOL since there are other skins on their network (although you would think someone trying to move off that kind of money would have received at least some some scrutiny about how they acquired the balance)...

    I have little over 40k sitting on my bol acct too.. I cashed out over 15k already.. Through p2p and checks, i check my account hourly incase of this type of shady shit. But it is dumb to leave that amount of cash in a offshore account. I will always have a cashout pending, after reading about all this shiet about bol.. I will never deposit here again.

    Why would you have 40k in one book instead of having 8k in 5 books? Unless you have 40k in 5 books it makes no sense. have you check how many books are placed in the black list? It means something.

    When you use Kelly to bet your roll grows so big that having 60k at BOL is a small amount. Too bad you flat bet like a retard.

    Is this a typical timeframe for an investigation of this magnitude ($60k)?

    Just saw this...has there been any resolution here? Bill?

    Sounds similar to the Absolute Poker fiasco, where an insider hacks into accounts. Let's hope they weren't doing it to improve their cash position, considering how cashouts at BOL have been going...

    Sorry to hear about this Calm.

    BetOnline credited his account with the $60k.
