    Sites being shut down?
    Hey guys, been away for awhile due to many circumstances, but have been betting sparingly the past couple weeks. I heard bookmaker got shut down (true?) and I'm wondering if any other sites will suffer the same fate soon. I have accounts with Oddsmaker and sports interaction. Should I be looking to get my money out soon?

    P.s. I'm on my phone at work so its difficult to search for past related posts, so that's why I decided just to ask. Thanks.

    Yes their site was seized by ICE Dept. of homeland security apparently.

      I haven't tried calling them but i would imagine you can still wager by phone.

          you are unlikely to ever cash out from oddsmaker.

                Should clarify:
                Bookmaker itself was not shut down; they had a few bank accounts and a domain name seized (bookmaker.com). You can still access their site, etc. at http://www.bmaker.ag

                  you should consult Sbr ratings before deposit money in a random book

                      My main concern is right after the UIGEA law was passed Party Poker, Pinnacle etc bailed. Probably because their lawyer's told them too. Right now that looks like a smart move on their part.

                          You are unlikely to ever get an explanation from Durito.

                            You suck at reading. Oddsmaker is rated f. Is that good enough?
