BTW I just spent the last couple hours reading this thread and its absolutely hands down the post of the decade for SBR and a MUST READ for any true SBR degen

This is still my favorite sbr thread of all time..... the pink writing, the I don't know much about football...... great stuff.

This thread never gets old. An all-time classic that deserves to be in the SBR Hall of Fame. God Bless SGC.

**20Four7** · 09-19-09, 10:38 AM

What I can't believe is that thread dates back to 2007. Seemed like just yesterday.

**20Four7** · 10-25-09, 06:40 AM

bump...... this is the all time classic. Funny how SGC and OldZig disappareared after this thead.

**maersksealand** · 10-25-09, 09:52 AM

WOW...reading this topic was like watching a good movie.

Good job done by BetEd and SBR.

The guy in Costa Rica (most likely OldZig) and the dumb chick from Minnesota tried to pull of a scam which I think it goes far more then those 20k SGC was claiming.

The guy opened the account for her and placed some bets until the dumb girl learned how to bet online...and after that most likely he would call her and tell her what teams to bet on.

SBR and BetEd did a great job...but man what a story, some really smart and funny people on this forum.

Agree, they are the f****** scum of the earth, after being caught by the Bookie the bastards came and lie here. BetEd should keep the initial deposit too.

**marabdl86** · 10-25-09, 10:11 AM

Bet ed still lost. They just wanted an excuse not to pay up and they found one.

**jellobiafra** · 10-25-09, 10:32 AM

I can't read 14 pages of this. I'm already bored shitless after 3. (Does it get better?)

All I want to know is - did the bitch get paid or not?

**20Four7** · 10-25-09, 10:44 AM

NO!!!!

She was never in Costa Rica, lied all the way through. She was a gnome for some guy in Costa Rica.

**jellobiafra** · 10-25-09, 10:46 AM

Alright. It must get good later in the thread. I might have to go back and pick it up where I left off later. This is kind of like the War and Peace of SBR threads.

**Dark Horse** · 04-15-10, 06:05 PM

Since this is considered a classic thread, I will link it to a similar problem with the same book:

SBR Forum - Sports Betting Talk - Sportsbook Review Forum

http://forum.sbrforum.com/sportsbooks-industry/423057-beted-confiscated-winnings-deleted-pending-wagers.html

Sports betting and handicapping forum: discuss picks, odds, and predictions for upcoming games and results on latest bets.

Another case of Beted free rolling a player. Beted has no problem taking the action/money until the time comes to pay out. In the case of sexygamblerchick it was about circumventing CR law, and almost all bets were placed from the US. In the second case (link) it was about circumventing limits, after Beted had limited the bet size to $25. In neither case was the player cheating the book; the money wagered was still at risk. But that is how Beted chooses to paint the picture. As mentioned in the other thread, this book will use a rule not to protect itself against fraud, but to benefit its own interest/steal from players.

In my time at this forum, this is one of the sleaziest book I have come across. If they were down at the D level I wouldn't mind. This stuff is to be expected there. But they're considered somewhat 'respectable'... How many times have they pulled similar stunts that we never heard of here? Accept the action, and then refuse to pay out based on a technicality, that they just happened to find out about when the time came to pay?

It's the mentality that smiles in your face, and stabs you in the back.

As to the illegality of gambling from an account created in CR, please. By that reasoning books could just as easily refuse to pay all US players, because they are -technically- going against US law. Beted could have scratched the wagers placed from CR, and recreated the account under the US player's name. How hard and impossible would that have been? The question is very simple. Are they honest, and do they see a bet as a business transaction, or are they dishonest, and do they take advantage of holding the player's funds after each bet?

As to the terrible crime of circumventing limits in the other thread, again, please...

Stand up to this book before they cheat more players, who aren't informed enough to know every little rule Beted can use against them.

**HedgeHog** · 04-15-10, 06:19 PM

Both cases were decided correctly. With SexyGamblingDude, he set up his account in CR and made his first half dozen bets in this country illegally. Asking BetEd to pay this fraud would violate local laws. The second case involves a bettor that was limited to $25 bets after winning too much in BetEd's eyes. He then set up a second account to circumvent the rules. He deserves to get stiffed too. You get limited, you leave--plain and simple.

**Dark Horse** · 04-15-10, 06:37 PM

Allow me to distill the essence of your argument.

Originally posted by HedgeHog

The simple truth is that nobody deserves to get stiffed.

There is no eye for an eye here. There are only bets/business transactions that are either honored or not.

A book has no 'right' to a person's money. They are holding it for him. The only money that is available to the book, at every moment, is the money that is bet by the player. Once the bet is settled, the money switches hands. The book's money belongs to the book, and the player's money belongs to the player. And that's all there is to it. Or should be ...

A payout is not a privilige, but a simple right. If the book doesn't want to pay out, it shouldn't accept the bets. If a book has a problem with an account, tell the player upfront. If the book accepts the bet, it has no problem with the account. Everything unfolds in real time. The book cannot claim a right to retroactive decision making.

**HedgeHog** · 04-15-10, 06:53 PM

Allow me to rebut. If you intentionally break the rules, you shouldn't get rewarded for your dishonesty. There are 7-8 Books that no longer want my business. Is it okay if I open "beard" accounts to continue to beat them?

I think you correctly mirror the general sentiment, for those who took the Beted side.

However, the problem is that you, just as correctly, characterize a payout as 'being rewarded'. A payout is no reward.

These are not cases of a book protecting itself against fraud. There is no cheating. At the very worst, the players acted uninformed. So what? Isn't SBR there to protect the rights of players?

Anyway, I'm done wasting time on Beted. People like that make me want to throw up.

Me, too. Just surprised you can be so anti-Beted here and pro BOL in other threads. BOL's attempted theft was much more blatant, IMO.

**Santo** · 04-15-10, 07:35 PM

"Isn't SBR there to protect the rights of players?"

Yes, but players can only prosper if the industry does.

As for "A Payout is no Reward" -- I would contend that it is if you are paying them out when they have deliberately tried to bypass rules and/or restrictions, which is the case in both examples here (bypassing geographic restrictions and account limits respectively).

BOL situation was an interpretation of one wager that with the help of SBR was resolved. Over and done with.

In case of Beted there are now two known cases, combining for roughly 25K, and many settled wagers, where the book retroactively confiscated winnings. The players didn't commit fraud, and the book would certainly have kept the accounts in good standing had the players lost. And it did so, as long as they didn't request a payout. How is that not blatantly dishonest?
