Default Bring back, bring back, oh bring back my matchy to me, to me...

boys, what has happened to matchy?.. I swear to GOD i don't recognize that site anymore.. Last year, betting NHL was a pleasure. 95% of my offers were getting matched. this year, 4% of my offers get matched. tonight i put up some nice juicy offers in NHL and not 1 was matched.. Every game now has 46$ availabe one 1 side, and 121$ on the other.. and it stays that way till post time.

Is it because people are withdrawing their money from matchy on acct of the recent news we have heard. Will the NBA be as bad as NHL, or will it be as good as last year. i need the NBA at matchy.. without matchy, i am lost.. how can i ever bet into a 10 cent line again when matchy has 3 cent baseball lines and 5 to 7 cent NFL, and NBA lines?

Have any of you guys pulled out your money from matchy? Has the recent news affected anyone here? SBR john or billy d, should i be lowering my balance at matchy? is matchy no longer safe?

What has happened to matchy? NHL has become unbettable.. will NBA be the same?

Please tell me this ain't the beginning of the end of matchy. please tell me matchy is not on the verge of closing... pls tell me matchy will not stiff anyone..pls tell me matchy is not broke.

I WANT MY MATCHY BACK.. THE WAY IT WAS BEFORE...

They will end up being just like WSEX. I said this when WSEX started having problems. If a guy sells shitty dope thats no good, you dont go and buy dope from his brother. Its common sense.

I play at pinnacle, and let me say this.. up until matchy opened shop, i thought pinny was GOD.. they were a dream come true.. each time books had +125, pinny had +134.. when books had -145, pinny had -134.. i was in heaven.

now since matchy came to life, when pinny has -134, matchy has -129.. when pinny has +134, matchy has +139..

after seeing matchy, pinny is now NOTHING compared to matchy.. had i never seen matchy, i'd be happy with pinny.. but now that i've been spoiled and saw what's out there, hard to like pinny.. i compare it to a virgin who makes love to you.. she will always think you're the best in bed if she never had anyone else, even if you are bad in bed.. because she hasn't seen anything else.. now that i've seen matchy, tough to accept pinny only..


richie, i really hope you're wrong..

Nicky i believe the answer to your questions are in your own posts ... in the past when u see signs like these what has happened?

If anything you are one of the few that has a clue here.

NCAAF seems to have a lot of liquidity. I don't really play hockey much so I don't know about that. But I"ve only got 1K in matchy and I'm not really that worried about it.

dougy boy, not at all, but i will be honest, i am not at ease at matchy as i once was.. maybe i am just being paranoid, because we did hear alot of negative things about them recently.. but no slow pay at all yet..

but i would be lying if i said that i feel just as comfortable as before. before if i would have my life savings in there, i did not even wink.. today, my acct has gotten a tad high again and i am not as comfy as i once was.

where's billy and johnny when you need them.. boys, should i be lowering my matchy balance, or will we never get stiffed..


losing matchy would be devastating.. every -225 at pinny is -203 at matchy.. every -188 at pinny is -176 at matchy. and that is pinny we are talking about, too.

every -240 at oly and cris is -204 at matchy.. every -155 at oly and cris is -138 at matchy.. we need matchy, boys..

I NEED SOMEONE IN THE KNOW TO COME IN HERE AND GUARANTEE US MATCHY WILL BE AROUND FOR A LONG TIME..

I keep a reduced balance there, but that's more to do with the new commission structure than any grave concerns about their feasibility.

Yeah santo, the commission is steep, but it is still better than every book out there.. not much better, but still better. 5 to 8 cent NFL lines is a tad better than pinny, but we still need matchy..

i used to bet 15 games every night there during baseball.. since 1 month now, i am averaging 0 to 3 bets a night now.. i have limited my bets because of the higher commission.

but my worry now is playing with a safe book that will pay. we have heard many neg things the past few weeks about them.. i wish i can be as confident as i once was when i had no worries while i sleep..

billy and sbr john, should we be lowering our matchy balances or are we safe.

Some of the more traditional books have some decent NHL lines...No way to get any type of money down on Matchbook without risking the wager not being accepted.
