Sportsbooks that closed the bank over Baseball break??

[Bill Dozer]

Every year a few books try this little scam. They know without any games on the board more people are going think about a payout. At a time when action is already at its lowest level, some sportsbooks don't have the cash or want to give it up. These clowns always put the memo up the night or day before as if it was planned. It was more obvious during the eWallet and Neteller days when payouts would have been flat out stalled if it took three days. Sportsbook.com, BetUs and a few others were great at it. Now, the tactic is still alive but easier to hide.

BetMania is telling a player they can't process a $300 ** for 4 days because they are "upgrading."
