    Rookie move.

    Sportsbooks will tell you anything over the phone. You have to get those details in writing, either in an email or chat that you save.

    This is as on you as much as it is on them.

    He obviously didn't read all these threads players are making about Youwager stealing their money.


    Or he wouldn't even deposit his worst enemy's money there!

    I left youwager because of the fact that they only allow 1000$ max withdrawal each time.

    Over the past year I've had numerous payouts by cheque for more than a 1000 and a wire for 3500 . Cheques have taken as long as 1 day to 4 days to get and the wire hit my bank on the 4th day

    I have taken a bonus a ton of times later like a week to 2 weeks later if i was taking a break and i have always gotten the bonus but i also have always e-mailed them and said i was ready to deposit and just making sure the bonus was still there . I am surprised though they would not give it to you if it was within the same week.

    lol, I can always tell a seasoned gambler/player when I read a comment like the above. it takes years and years maybe decades and decades of bad beats, bad decisions, and bad everything before a player will make this type of comment, or admit that very few people win long term.

    still, I love to wager but now I do it with discipline. No more 500 or 1000 wagers on a "can't lose lock", those days are long gone. now my biggest wager will be on usually the Super Bowl or the NCAA foot championship. If I lose a few grand for the year I am okay with that. If I get lucky and have a decent year well that is fine too.

    I hear you brother.

    LOL even when you win the stress of some of these games are enough to turn someone into me . Even last nights game the stress in just that one. I had the Over and i WON and i was still going crazy until almost the very end. And i even BROUGHT 2 points to make it easier. I had to hope and pray that the final drive got a TD in the last 3 minutes to get the Win. And this is just one game lol.

    Funny they tried to make contact with me today for the first time in years. I don't need any of that shit, I live in NJ.

    Even before boomaker, 5 dimes, heritage, etc. We have so many options men, unless you're taking a calculated risk bonus whoring , I see no reason to even mess with these guys.

    I pulled out $6K by way of 3 Bitcoin withdrawals last month- no issues. But I'm up for the year, and they haven't bothered once all season for additional deposits. LOL

    100% true. love this comment. it does take years of bad decisions to fully understand this game. its amazing what it takes to experience to understand frustration.
