    sportsbook.com account closed

    My account was disabled and I submitted documents to get it enabled. It was active for 1 day and I withdrew my funds. The next day my account was disabled and they said they are keeping my funds and I can't get it out. They accused me of chip dumping, which I didn't even do. I play poker only a few times and in no way was I chip dumping. I asked them for proof and they said they cannot provide that to me and it was a management decision. What can I do from here to get my money back.

    First off, Welcome to the SBR forum sir.

    I can't say I'm surprised this book would close a players account, then confiscate the funds. Please feel free to fill out a complaint form and one of us will inquire about your situation.

    ahloung,

    sportsbook.com are proven thieves. Of the d- books, Sportsbook.com and SBG are the closest to "F" rated (in my opinion). I'm sorry they are robbing you, but there is almost no chance of you having any meaningful positive result in this. They are crooks with no accountability.

    I hope you get your money back, but don't expect it.

    Looks like they're finally catching on to the rampant chip dumping from the sb.com skins to Cake.
