Default Legendz is not a recreational bettor user friendly sportsbook.Fees,$20 minimum bets.

I really lucked out and won week 1 at the TOW Forum's football contest.Jake posted it was worth $300 but then Legendz said it would be worth $300 if you won a $300 straight bet.Once again,I lucked out and had the Colts -1 against the Vikings.The rollover is 3X so I'm just playing moneyline favorites so I can keep the majority of the $300 which is happening.

You had to deposit $100 through Moneygram to an obscure foreign country that shall go unnamed.It was like pulling teeth to get the damn funds cleared.I had to call moneygram and practically tell them I wasn't sending money to the Sandanista rebels or the Contras.It's like fascist Homeland Security has a guy right at Moneygram.Legendz wouldn't let a first time depositor make credit card deposits.You practically have to send them your life story long after you have made deposits to qualify to use a credit card.Moneygram fees are $11 and change.

Then Legendz minimum bet is $20 which makes it bad for playing it safe when you want to recover the majority of your contest winnings.

I have a sneakey hunch that they will yank my chain a few more times by the time I get some procedes from this contest?

I don't think you'll have any problems getting paid there. Did you have to play the $300 Freeplay in one play ? Can you use it online, or call in only ?

I have better ways for you to do it, if you can make more than one play of it.

Is this the first time you have dealt with a off-shore? Sounds like you're being "jerked around" but your difficulties with MG as well as the book are not ordinary...at least that has been my experience.

if you have no intention on gambling at all, and are only looking for free prize winnings, do you think its ethical to play in the contests?

the contests are intended for PLAYERS, and are incentive for ACTIVE PLAYERS, not for people looking to make 1$ wagers so they can simply roll over their deposit and cash out on a Prize.

this is just my opinion, but I doubt you will get much sympathy here, there are many of us who will open an account at legendz and give them REAL ACTION in order to play in the contest, this is obviously what SBR and legendz are looking for, not SHOT takers looking for a free handout.

Legendz is whatever. I give them a grade of B and only because they are reliable. 20 cent lines suck! They will collar you but their minimum wager is $20. Doesn't make sense. Not a book for 'pros' and not a book for recreational bettors.

They do run $5 Vegas style parlay cards though.I love those $5 4 team correlated parlay bets a few other books let you do.Anytime you can bet even other 4 team moneyline-totals on 2 games for $5 where you can win $150 it's a cheap gambling buzz.It's the Ripple of sportsbetting.hehe!
