    Those bonuses were insane though. I miss being able to get a 300 dollar freeplay and 150 cash on a 300 dollar deposit.

    When they offered the point promo for the NBA I missed out and told Jon I thought it was unfair and I wanted to be a part of it too he told me they got hammered and he couldn't do that but he seriously gave me 1000 fp wirh no rollover and no cashour restrictions. Not only that but we had a deal worked out that for every 5 deposits I lost without a payout the next was on the house, usually a flat 200-300. Insane they stayed in business as long as they did, I wasn't as pissed as everyone else when I lost my couple hundred they had done plenty for me before

    Obviously some guys don't realize that it's a business like anything else and you can just give money away. Gave away all that money and all those free plays and then they wonder why they're tiny tugjob went under.

    20 years later people will be talking about it

    How many business deals does America get fukked on every day that goes by?

    1. Piss poor paint job on the house

    2. Some jerkoff didn't lay your cement right

    3. Some stoner mislaid your pool

    I could go on and on.

    Gross. I though about depositing 300 there after opening an account instead of my usual 5dimes p2p deposit a week before shit hit the fan..for whatever reason I stuck with 5dimes and ended up making a small run to 1500. Lucky for me I guess.

    Apparently. The similarities between him and Jon from BI were chilling. My takeaway: always be wary of sportsbook owners/reps who are all over the forums 24/7 trying to be best buds with everyone. The good books don't need that kind of presence.

    BTW, if I recall correctly, The Greek offered some kind of bailout to Camelot clients. I forget if it was 100% or not, but it was generous.
