    playing with them is like have unprotected sex with some known to have Herpes.

    You are just asking for it. If you put money in just know that it may never come out.

    DO NOT PUT A CENT IN THAT PLACE

    If they can get this processor issue...

    worked out, I would use them again. I have never had any issues with them, other than the processor fiasco last year (and currently of course!!??)

    This is total unreal to me that anyone would consider using these people again. you guys are fools if you put your money in there. in the end this place will go out of biz. 6 fing months I'm waiting for 5 digits from these pigs. i had always been paid as well. They steel from players and don't pay why in the world would you get involved with them if even one person had an issue.

    in you are in USA use LOCALS don't be a fool like me and have money you can't get out.

    if you put your money in at some point (if you win) you will have problems with them.

    Playing with sportsbook.com is like having sex with your wife. Sometimes you have to wait. So wait, maybe its your time of the month.

    it is what it is..

    this is mostly for cinpls..i always here u bash this place as do most moderators..then i hear they steal from players(which may be true)..i guess certain people know this to be fact..but not me..not sayin it didnt happen..custy service...terrible...but i have always been paid ...for years..and am almost positive that i have a much bigger balance there then you as i play not only high limit poker but also make huge sports bets..something i am not that proud of..but i like the high..ok that being said, they have alot of my money which i did receive some yesterday thru wire that was asked for on 29th and sent on 3rd received yesterday..i had check in mail 1 day from house when eddie corde from zip payments calls fedex and told them to destroy. the funny part is i had checks 2 from 30 before that that i hadnt even deposited..yes they both bounced..they have put all money back, and did this swiftly, sent in bad checks next day bam..in acct..didnt know exactly how i was gonna get the money home , but atleast in account..i gave them sometime..yes i heard different stories from different operators there..but i sat tight..not tryin to scalp or dump(which scalping is pretty stupid if you know anything about math..add in book your not sure will play(which is the reason for trying to scalp)and then that makes the scalping super stupid..)well they then give me wire..over 5000..that would piss me off if i had 3500 there..thought that to be stupid..but if you owned a business..as i do..yes you try to please all but those clients that are the most profitable to you are put first..thats it..i love people..all people..but business is business..so they set up for those like us..i sent in all documents to peter sanders..they mailed me next day said your all set..i asked for payout i received..1 week..so the truth is if you give them what they want and do it with someone that you communicate with there, (not when they say fax ..you just fax and call next day..you should get there email, send it thru while talking with them, then they receive and you make sure all is there..)i truly believe if all take the professional approach and not just look for them to make mistakes.. because they will..but try to help out as i truly believe they like most businesses want to survive and thrive my friend..and when people have won tens of thousands at a certain place they have a special thing for them..not that i would leave a huge balance in any sportsbook right now..but to play at sportsbook i feel u have an excellent chance of getting paid and its just part of the game right now with all the problems..

    Why would I say anything possitive about a place that hasn't paid for months. I'm just trying to prevent people from going through what I'm dealing with now.

    Anyone who puts money into that place is a complete fool.

    i have always been paid but 6 months = no pay in my eyes. They should be rated an F for USA.

    Anyways if I had known about this place 6 months ago I would have never placed a cent in this black hole.

    LIES LIES AND MORE LIES.

    Pitch10000, could you direct me to someone I can talk to there? I understand that those customers who at one point had balances of $50k have priority over those who have $5k pending withdrawals, but there shouldn't be that much discrepancy. If you can get a wire in one week, I should at least be able to get my wire within 2.

    Thanks if you can offer any help

    There is no way this guy is getting checks and money as he is claiming. Its an issue for everyone. This clown claims to be getting paid in days = not true

    My wires are sitting on weeks 3 to be exact and I can't get anything out of them not one cent. So what makes him more special then everyone else that can't get paid?

    Played with them since the late 90's and always enjoyed the service. Then they got bought out by the Brits, and then they were sold to the Jazette Group who has decided not to pay its players.

    It's ok to defend any offshore sportsbook that at least attempts to pay, or actually does pay its players, but this is clearly not the case with Sportsbook.com. It's wrong to blast a book with vague acquisitions’ as it’s also clearly wrong to create lies regarding the truth.

    Pitch, if you can expedite my withdrawal, you are my savior. I think I'm considered a VIP. I've played with sports.com since 2003 and with sportsbook.com since the fall of 2006. I got a confirmation e-mail that all the requested documents I sent have been received. Check your PMs please.

    Lot of posts here by newbies. They will learn in time. Why anyone would use a house that has so many issues (whether you have had no problems in the past or not) is beyond me.

    There are so many better choices.

    No big surprise as FB season is upon us. Take this as an opportunity to draw out all your funds. I foresee SB.com pulling the plug for good after the Super Bowl, taking everyone's $$$ with them.

    I'm still "in process" for a measly $500 check. Tried to cash out 7/6. Sent in documents, approved documents. Now I wait....

    This is just amazing to me sportsbook you are a fool I'm sorry.

    People in the world are just plain stupid. For what its worth i've been waiting for MONTHS football season to get paid. I'm still waiting a wire and a few future bet winners to cash.

    I would never play with them being from the US.

    They can't pay b/c of the government....don't you guys get it?

    In the end they will not be able to pay get your money and run, run run.


    Why in the world put money into this place just plain stupid.
