    Matchbook Question

    I live in Canada so i have no problems with deposit/payout options...I really wanna deposit in this book cuz i'd save a ton of vig even over Pinny but whats the status on them? Read a couple threads on their liquidity problems so can anyone confirm they will pay?

    thanks

    They will absolutely pay you. No matter how much you win..Because they are a betting exchange, unlike other sportsbooks...

    I'm in Canada also.

    Matchbook always pays fast, never had a problem.

    I use Moneybookers.

    Matchbook

    Matchbook paid me 5 figures last week--process time 1 day. They pay post-up players fast. Always have.

    Chuck, are you in the U.S.? The reason I ask is because I am wondering if there is a better way to cashout than through a bunch of $3K checks.

    They charge 1% if u take someone elses wager already there and they give you .02% if u make the offer and it gets matched, so basically they make .08% on every wager after it gets accepted everyday on every game, which means all profit and no risk involved on there end.

    I've always been paid very promptly by Matchbook but being a betting exchange in no way guarantees that they are safe.
