    Why despite all the complaints BetOnline is so attractive
    The thing is this.
    For the player who stays around the micro/low range in poker and in sports bets $10-$50 a night, deposits with a credit or DC often, but from $10-$50, and if ever wants a payout does it p2p,
    BetOnline is great.

    As well, these players are the bread and butter of this type of book, as thier profit% to the book is large, even though the absolute numbers are low.
    Having enough of these players comprise the grind that makes the book's operating nut.

    The players feel relatively safe since their poker play is well below the target ranges for getting colluded against, caught up in a chip dumping scam, or taken down by a BOL insider.

    With sports the min bets are very low, and always a big selection.
    Then if/when they want a payout, they choose p2p with a free/$50 once a month credit to cover fees.
    The p2p from BOL is fairly reliable and quick. As well this type player's payout amount falls well below the max for p2p.

    So there you have it. Once you have your account 'tuned', so all the docs have been submitted, and you don't need CS for anything important, it can be a breeze to play there, and a lot of fun and flexibility with the sports/poker integration, and instant transfers between the two.

    That is until these last few weeks.

          OP I do agree with you in the sense that since they process P2P fairly quickly, there's no reason to have a lot of money in there/win a lot of money in there. If your going to make a big play on a game, go to 5dimes or Heritage. You know you'll see that money in a week tops.

          Other than that though, BetOnline doesn't offer any thing to me that would make me want to post up with them.

            Mike,
            I enjoy your posts, in fact I recall when you went through that stage of being in utter disbelief how and why anyone was playing at any other shop but the top ones that never have complaints and are known for great payouts. (I'm with you dude, I went through my own writer's cramp trying to convince the world on that one too.)

            My point here is specific to the lower stakes poker player / low stakes rec sports better only....

              Very well said Steve!
              Please keep in mind I'm referencing the poker/sports rec player.
              Maybe you're not a shill for EzStreet after all!! :-)

                        the players are terrible, and its fun placing sucker parlays 1 to win 1-50k! (was 4 mins away from 1 to win a G, had avs vs jets under 5.5 part of a 13 teamer with it all coming down to that game, and a col instigator penalty with 4:30 left and the jets up 4-1 and avs allowed jets to score and i lost)

                          5mike5 only recommends 5dimes. All others must perish.
