    reasons for book to deny withdrawl

    ...let's make a master list. i think it would benefit everyone esp when thinking of depositing in a new book. i'll get it started-

    1) INSUFFICIENT DOC'S-- dl , utility, copy of cc, bank statements
    2) TYPES OF BETTING
    -steam
    - pastposting
    3) multiple accounts
    4) i.p. address- using more than one, or i.p. matches up with someone elses,
    dynamic i.p.(laptop or iphone)
    5) non working phone #

    Good list, but for anybody thinking of joining a new shop, just stick with the high end books and you greatly reduce your chances of having to put up with any of this bullshit.....

    Some shit books put a hold on your withdrawal if you get a bonus. Some books won't let you withdraw for as long as 2 months if you get a bonus when you deposit, regardless of how much rollover you give them.

    Just play at 5dimes or BetJam. Once you submit the required documents only once, payout is a breeze. Or, be dumb an play elsewhere and continue to have headaches.

    may be cause for weak books to limit or kick you out but certainly not to withhold your funds

    Non-recreational bettor to a sportsbook looking to cut people off who are sharp is:

    1.Straight bettor who doesn't play parlays or teasers unless their is an edge in them.

    2.Someone who is up after anywhere from a few (less than 10 bets) to a lot of bets (you pick the number).

    3.Anyone who is a long-term threat to the bottom line.

    How common is this multiple IP denial?

    I typically use 3 computers to bet on, but nobody else with an account would use any of them. I use Betus if that helps.

    not too common, unless you are suspected of multiple accounts. i use open source only (wifi). so, when i deposit i tell them upfront that there is a possibility that there could be a matching i.p.

    the whole point of this list is to eliminate the possibility of slow pays and denied wd's BEFORE you deposit a dime of your money.

    Years ago, WorldWager accused me of "flim flam betting," whatever that is, and my withdrawal amount was only $300! Eventually they said they were wrong and said they'd pay me, but offered a 10% bonus if I kept my money there, i.e. they'd give me $30 to not withdraw. I thought that was a bad sign so I withdrew anyway.

    I still don't know what "flim flam betting" is!

    One thing to add to list, and ask how common this is, since I'm new to this whole thing: when I place a bet on BetUs, it says to print my wager receipt (or something like that) and no bets will be honored unless I have a copy.

    I've never printed these. Is there a possibility they won't let me withdraw my money?

    I don`t want to discourage you but there are some books that would make up weird rules and would apply those rules when they don`t want to pay. I had that experience with a book already.
