Thumbs down Serious Oddsmaker Question

Ok, so I have heard a lot of scammy things about this book but I had some funds in there from prior to my arrival at SBR. How many people have actually got paid here?

I am up about 900.00 from 200.00 in credit.

Will I be looking forward to getting stiffed?

OddsMaker (SBR rated D-) is part of the Futurebet family of books, which just screams "stay away"!

They screw a lot of players on their promotions they offer (read the fine print carefully). Not to mention a few other problems this establishment has levied against them fairly recently. The one other problem I can recall off the top of my head is, BetOnUSA (which are the same owners) dumped some of the larger accounts when they moved to Futurebet, most notably SBR poster Jackpot funds.

Dan,

Thanks for the quick response. Thank god this is a old account and support says I took no promo. Do you see many people paid on the monthly pay out report?

I don't see any oddsmaker reports on the payout reports, however not many (if any) SBR posters play there with all those complaints that have been levied against them.

Sh*t so basically this win is a phantom win

Maybe I can be the first to be on that report... not likely though

I wouldn't go as far as saying that sir. I mean I have read elsewhere that they do pay people at times, and hopefully your one of them.

Hi Xstud,
Well, I've said this over and over again on other various oddsmaker threads on this forum, but here goes again..Last year I won over $6,500 during the summer with my baseball plays...I processed the withdrawal request and they paid me promptly...only took two weeks to get my money!..(Approximately 10-12 business days)...Not too bad, huh?!..Unlike other sportsbooks like bodog (who still have an "A" rating for some strange reason) and sportsbook.com who both takes weeks and sometimes months to payout!..It should be noted that I made a direct deposit and re-up with them so maybe that is the reason why I didn't have any problems getting paid...It seems to me the only people who are whining and bitching are the proverbial "bonus whores" who didn't read the rules and regulations very carefully...As I have said before, maybe I was indeed one of the few fortunate ones that got paid but having said that, as far as I know, nobody has gotten stiffed by them either...I basically only play with diamond sportsbook as they are rated A+ by just about every credible forum that reviews and grades offshore gambling websites (including yours truly) and they also have superfast payouts!..the best in the business, alongside with Pinnacle and Bet Jam...(Usually check arrives at your doorstep within four days of withdrawal request!!)... ...and to make a long story short, fast pay and knowing that I will get paid if and when I win, take priority and precedence over everything else...these are the only things that matter as far as I am concerned....well good luck and keep the forum informed if and when you get paid if you make a withdrawal.
