    Investments and crypto since 2011. I took a few years off of betting as well, so the recent bankroll had been building up and much higher. Breaking off an engagement, being single, and Covid is what brought me back in full time haha. Classic equation for me.

    I also had a handful of years in the green from wagering, never bellied up. Got close and learned alot about addiction vs abusing. Controlling my emotions and how they tie to betting was the key to this success. Identified and realized if I was about to bet just because. Rarely even watch if it's not tennis which truly am just a fan.

    Was a little more info than you asked, but also learning through the years was key to how this all started in the first place. Being young and in my early 20s, it'd already be emptied.

      But I don't know, was just guessing.
      Ahh, gotcha. That makes more sense. I will say my buddies over at BM really went to bat for me. Love these guys. More I've been able to process it - no pun intended - the more I truly believe it's the processor. They know id deposit any second if I bellied up after taking 75% out or so.

      I really hope if people are on anything outside of the US, its them. Hate reading those horror stories you have to manage (the legit ones). On day 8 of withdrawals and it's business as usual. BM for life with me.

        Crypto books.


        I like BM, but their best days are behind them.
        I've been suggested this alot. I looked into it and felt it's drive me crazy trying to really track gains vs the market fluctuations.

        Am I seeing this wrong? But you have like 10 BTC and bet X amount of BTC, correct? Like today, the dip, was nice not to have to think about a 10% loss (I'm bullish and believe it's going to the moon).

        What do you use? Is it user friendly? How is support?

          I’m glad it’s worked out for you. I envy your amount levels & probably will never get to that level in my lifetime & the last 5 years I’ve had to rely heavily on sports betting just to make ends meet scrapping a profit to the average of 30k a year. I’m your poor mans gambler in this industry & Bitcoin has definitely helped me stay in the game through the years, but by no such scale like yourself.

            not sure this is believable.....

            why would anyone in their right mind make huge deposits and actually have a mill in these books

            ????



            Most are undercapitalized ....no rules or regs and can do whatever they wish with your funds.


            Its like having a mill with you local bookie....


            u may never see it...maybe dribs and drabs...


            maybe I am wrong....


            and I donot believe they will let u win anywhere near that amount....No way

              I'd agree with this on many levels outside of the likes of Bookmaker (in my experience). So far day 10 with no issues of quick, max withdrawals of $25k.

              Are you familiar with their limits? For how many years they've been offering that, I'd think they'd be exposed by now. Just my thoughts.

                  after u get to a $100k win why wouldnt u want to withdraw? why would u want to use an offshore

                  sportsbook as a bank???

                  Where is your Risk Management?


                  If u wish to bet alot...that is fine...but after u have a nice score get the $$ out of the book

                  on a timely basis....

                  that is the part I donot understand....

                    I trust them. I have never had an issue for years. Everyone I know in the industry says the same about BM. Id rather continue my betting - as im not stopping for good - there, instead of just stopping and taking my business elsewhere. Id rather not pay a player if they stop and take their business elsewhere, as opposed to one that has been equally as loyal to-date.

                    We will see, but I believe I am in good hands. Week 2 and not a problem getting out max for 10 days straight. They clearly upped my account per month and noone has had an issue, yet. I hope it continues this way.

                    Might I ask - where do you bet? Why do you bet? Are you here to try to win big, or just the thrill of action? Because with that skepticism, if you couldnt trust anyone in the industry, whats the point of even doing what we do?

                      If I had to choose one book to have a giant chunk of money at it would be Bookmaker.

                        Absolutely agree. Ive been slowly making a unit here or there and continue to be paid out for 10 days straight. Dont suspect they just cut it off and I have to work with @Optional on recouping a massive amount of funds.

                        Id be more worried to have this balance on DraftKings, frankly. My experience with BM over the years gives me 100% confidence in them.

                          This is just a way to throttle withdrawals in general and every book does it. The line about getting flagged is hilarious.

                          Their deposit limits are 500k in one transaction lol.

                            Must be fuckin’ nice to be collecting 25k a day everyday for months, unreal. Well you will be rather.

                              Isn't justbet associared with bookmaker? I started a thread last week about JB refusing to pay me out 4k, refusing to give me a reason and not having a working phone. This thread is filled with BM praise, does that not carry over to Justbet? I am losing my mind because I can't get $4200 off. I played straight up, lost, won, lost, won on mutliple games and bets. They won't even respond to my emails, I just keep chatting with the same guy.

                                Yes they are the same. File a sportsbook complaint. It'll get worked out.

                                    Never heard of it but hope it gets sorted out for you. Stories like this make me cringe.. Sounds like they are completely different in regards to communication and experiences. BM withdrawals for me always been fastest and easiest in the industry via crypto. I can't comprehend having to deal with this.

                                    Is there a reason you are on the smaller site of the two? Id really hope people would let go of slightly better lines and a few promos that lock their money up or tilt the rules in the books favor. Of all the money I've put on, I've never once elected for a bonus.

                                          Id be more worried to have this balance on DraftKings, frankly. My experience with BM over the years gives me 100% confidence in them.
                                          Show us a screenshot of these 25k payouts or go Pro. Make a choice or don’t come back in the thread.

                                            I'll go Pro. Anything to support the cause.

                                            Edit - couldn't find it easily, how do I get started

                                            Edit x2 - never thought to click the "Become a Pro" button. Ha, but it just says "Undefined Error."

                                                              No it's fine, I knew this post would come with skepticism. I went into detail a few times, but the turning point were two live tennis lines from Osaka at +1050 and Chardy +950. I had about 200k built up when more than half the bankroll went on Osaka, and then a good 150k+ on Chardy. They both hit and it's been smaller ups/downs from there.

                                                              I couldn't find a loss for a while then reality set back in. Was just a crazy run with the perfect timing of pressing.

                                                              My average deposit was 5-25k and it would go on a single play. This run started from 15k.

                                                                Any other ways to approach it?

                                                                  Any other ways to approach it?

I went into detail a few times, but the turning point were two live tennis lines from Osaka at +1050 and Chardy +950. I had about 200k built up when more than half the bankroll went on Osaka, and then a good 150k+ on Chardy. They both hit and it's been smaller ups/downs from there.

                                                                      I couldn't find a loss for a while then reality set back in. Was just a crazy run with the perfect timing of pressing.

                                                                      My average deposit was 5-25k and it would go on a single play. This run started from 15k.
                                                                      Jeezus they let you get down 100K+ on a live a bet? My live bet maxes are somewhere between 300-3K. Tennis is 1K I believe.

                                                                        You use SBR to shill and collect referrals for that Stake crypto site, cry about being only asked to stop, whine more and try to get around the rules when your PMs are removed for continuing to do it.

                                                                        And now you want to throw shade at at a non-profit charity donation membership and tell people not to do that on SBR.

                                                                        Is there anything at the bottom of the barrel below you in there pal?!
