Good video....meh on the blue exclams...

**Chopsticks** · 07-28-11, 03:22 PM

Holy hell that is some slowpay....

**Bluehorseshoe** · 07-28-11, 03:22 PM

I'd like to bet the Russian account was money won on fixed Tennis matches.

**jjgold** · 07-28-11, 03:38 PM

what massive book
that is a lot of money to process

why not bank wires?

betfair is so fukkin big now its out of control

**jjgold** · 07-28-11, 03:39 PM

You can have multi accounts at BetFair as long as its all under your name

Some players like to separate accounts for each sport so they can track

**jstblaze** · 07-28-11, 03:52 PM

Ill take my 3.1 million in 20 grand a week payments!

**LostBankroll** · 07-28-11, 03:56 PM

This is bullshit J7

It's also a great way to avoid premium charge

I'm glad we have SBR to warn us about these issues. Thanks!

I doubt it.
The accounts would be linked.

**JohnnyRotten** · 07-28-11, 05:14 PM

Hell yea , if I am going to win 3.1 million I will not play there

Thanks SBR

**FuzzyDunlop** · 07-28-11, 05:26 PM

Jesus, how are they still A rated?

**jjgold** · 07-28-11, 05:26 PM

accounts are linked

mcorbin...............basketball
mcorbin1...........tennis
mcorbin2.......horses

bascially you use each account just for one sport and 100% allowed and all linked but balances not linked

**Sawyer** · 07-28-11, 05:28 PM

BF is a greedy company. They don't want winning players anymore but this issue (3.1 Million Dollar Slow pay) is a complicated subject. Regular players won't have problems like these.

I hope Betdaq gets better. Really liked their motto: We don't charge a premium on Winners as we don't think it's Fair

**jjgold** · 07-28-11, 05:40 PM

maybe betdaq will grow
all they need is some big players to get volume going

**maersksealand** · 07-28-11, 05:51 PM

this video makes me feel uncomfortable, I would try to withdraw my $27...hope they won't give me any hard time

regular players have nothing to fear

only a miniscule number will ever face the premium charge, particularly if they have a plan to ensure they don't qualify for it

still the best place to have an account unless your only interest is US sports

**geebert74** · 07-28-11, 05:58 PM

Nice vid Justin... I wish I had 1/4 of that 3.1 million in the bank...

I left betfair soon after they introduced the PC a while back - after burning through the buffer, they wanted $1k in a week, on top of hefty regular commission. Not been back since, their prices are simply rubbish after PC. Also makes it impossible to stakesize properly.

What's nice is the latest PC moneygrab has finally pissed off a number of big players, and the liquidity at betdaq and matchbook has improved as a result. Had a number of tennis plays recently at matchbook, slightly better price than betfair (because of only 0.5% commission), and no premium charge.

**DeluxeLiner** · 07-28-11, 09:04 PM

What is with the annoying blue exclamation marks. Cut it out.

**Justin7** · 07-28-11, 09:13 PM

Weird. Everywhere I had documents, ... odd.

I am re-uploading it. I reviewed the original video, and all the documents are there.

**kisado** · 07-28-11, 09:21 PM

Downgrade these greedy fuks.

You're right, how can it be?

**Roxxyfish** · 07-28-11, 09:41 PM

hmm Betfair is the flagship of the eurobooks, if true not good

**Hareeba!** · 07-28-11, 09:41 PM

Who's responsible for imposing a $20k limit on transactions ?

Doesn't make sense to me. How does UK business manage to trade with Russia?

I wouldn't be too surprised if Betfair isn't falling over itself to see this guy paid speedily as they probably know he's made the money playing fixed games.

**Justin7** · 07-28-11, 09:58 PM

New video is up. Sorry about that odd problem.

**Recurring** · 07-28-11, 10:06 PM

I wish I had the problem of a 3.1 million slow pay...

**jjgold** · 07-28-11, 10:07 PM

whole thing seems sketchy
If he was russian then something is up
