I am new here. I had questions on getting withdrawals fron books. I have been using bookmaker and have had no problem with money gram usually the next day. The only issue is a $1500 max withdrawal per week and it costs me $105 per withdrawal. Does that seem odd/expensive? I would like to stay away from getting checks as this may send a red flag to the bank/someone else important. anyone else have reservations about withdrawing money?

Thanks,
M

Just take checks. Nobody is coming after individual bettors, it will not start with you.

First off, Welcome to the SBR forum

I wouldn't think a bank drafts would draw a red flag for you if it's an amount under $10,000.

Peteach,

check out their loyalty program. You can use loyalty points for free withdrawals. $105 seems high though - what method is that for? Are there cheaper methods? And have you tried book to book transfers?

you might look at other withdrawal methods - some might have a higher limit. I'm pretty sure book to book are unlimited volume.

Thanks for all the feedback. The $105 fee is for money gram...$1500 a week max.

Yea moneygrams are expenisive shit at bookmaker, but if you use the loyalty points you can get a free payout with a check.

Hey crazyl or anyone,

You said noone is coming after individual bettors, what if one is audited with alot of large deposits into their checking account compared to regular income?

Thanks

go with your gut and your comfort level. If you did not win the money from Vegas or other legitimate organization than it doesn't exist. If someone did not hand you a tax document with the money it doesn't exist.
