    "Parlaymakers Updates"

    I'm sure everyone has recieved, this, but according to them if you have money at PM they'll be happy to send it and withdrawals are free.

    --

    Hello,

    As many of you know the GP e-wallet is no longer processing gaming transactions. GP was one of our primary e-wallet options for many of our customers. For those customers who had deposited to Parlaymakers by GP your account balance showing with Parlaymakers is valid and is eligible for wagering and our normal withdrawal options.

    Going forward, ** and ** will be the deposit options for US customers with Parlaymakers. to receive deposit instructions, login to your account and select the deposit option for either ** or **. You will receive the deposit instructions and after making the transaction you can return to Parlaymakers and enter the refernce or MTCN number and the transaction will be processed. Processing times are normally 30-90 minutes. Deposit limits are minimum of $50 and a maximum of $3,000. Deposits are processed seven days a week from 9 AM to 4 PM EST. Deposits larger than $950 are processed only Monday through Friday. Parlaymakers does not reimburse fees for deposits.

    Withdrawals by ** or ** are one per 30 days with a maximum limit of $3,000. There is no fee to withdrawal.

    Moneybookers deposits and withdrawals are not affected by these changes.

    Our create your own wager and best line guarantees are still available by contacting Parlaymakers via email at info@parlaymakers.com.

    We appreciate your patience these last few days as we have updated our site to reflect these recent changes. As always we welcome our players input and look forward to a great year with you.

    Thank you,

    Management
    Parlaymakers

    I wonder what PM is going to do with the many players that lost money in GP limbo, it seems to me that that money is not tansferable to Parlaymakers now, is it?

    LOL.

    They never "took a hit with the Superbowl". The Super Bowl had zero effect on their situation.

    Their issues began long before the Super Bowl, and it's safe to say that the small amount of bets that they took on the Super Bowl (if indeed they took any at all) had no effect one way or the other on the overall scheme of things at PM.

    "License" has nothing to do with it. "Licensed books" have going under with no problem, BetPanam, WWTS, BOS and others. Also there are plenty of books that operate without a "license" and are great books.

    Probably SBR people knew personally the guy behind it, otherwise they will not be so kind with them. We've seen how books that do not know personally the owners of SBR get their "rigorous" evaluation. It is not their fault, is a business, you pay or you know people, it will get you up there. Sad that they are not coming up downgrading the book and bringing some light to the situation, but on the other hand they may know as much as we do, so for them it might better to be simply quiet.

    Yes, their problems began earlier. You may want to brush up on struggling books and Superbowl, though.

    When did this book open? I was away from the forums for a while and don't remember when they were first mentioned.

    Totally fu-cked up thats why im staying with the top rated books so i have no issues like this. How people have it in them to steal money from innocent people is beyond me, what goes around comes around and that bi-tch Max wont be able to keep that money. It makes me so mad when i hear stories like this, already hard enough for people to beat the games and then u cant even count on getting your money when u win is just a sin.
    Even though the US government is being hard right now im glad they are stepping in cause when all of this passes here at least u know it will be regulated and u will get your money. Guys stop putting your money in these crappy ass books and stay with the trusted ones until all of this passes.

    Maybe you should do the brushing up ... there hasn't been a major book failure as a result of and directly after the Super Bowl since 2002, if my memory serves me correctly. It is a storyline that is put forward each year, starting a couple of weeks before the Super Bowl, but reality simply hasn't backed it up.

    Yeah, it must be a rumor only. Why would the end of football possibly mark a turning point for struggling books? And of course parlaymakers would not be a major book either, so your theory holds true regardlessly.

    Not arguing against the theory of it ... the theory makes complete sense ... but the reality is that it just hasn't happened in the recent past.

    Note to self - don't play at books that take $50,000 bets unless they are named Pinnacle, Olympic, Grande, Cris, Bellagio, MGM, etc

    I don't see how there is a next step. Both sites are gone. Max could be anywhere in the world by now.

    He's probably still in Costa Rica plotting his next scheme. I'm thinking a boiler room where they rope old people into foreign exchange trading by telling them how proud their kids will be of their legacy once they take their profits.
