[cinpls081]

If you can get them to do a wire for you then I would go for it 100%. I was told that you need to be VIP etc. i wouldn't worry about wiring in 6500 into my account to be honest with you.
GL to you bro I wouldn't bet a dime for a dollar that you get your money within the next 2 weeks....

how did you blow 80K when you are a student? In college I could've survived on 200 dollars a month eating ramen and drinking crappy natty light. I hope you get your wire transfer but seriously son, you need better money management! Don't go blowing all your winnings and expect it to last forever!

good luck

If you don't know what scalping is you haven't been around this game long enough and need an educaiton. To scalpe a book is to bet both sides one with one book and one with another. You bet say the AL tonight at -150 and bet the NL with another book +150. That way you only change where the money is etc. It's another form of gambling and it doesn't sound like you have the money you need to make it work. You would need at least 15K to get the 5K out....

easy, im not that hard up for the cash.

[sportsbook.blow]

Hello All,

Back in April I requested a 2500 dollar check from sportsbook and it took them two months of bs and run around before they cancelled the withdrawl and returned the monies back in to my account. Shortly after I rerequested and I had to wait another month before I recieved the check. I was concerened that it may bounch however it went through and cleared the bank. I can honestly say it may take them forever to payout but you do eventually get paid out...I said I would quit playing on sportsbook.com but i got sucked back in by their juicy poker rooms. Long story short i requested 4 additional withdrawls from them from june and have yet to recieve them. I talked to a cs rep today she informed me that it would take another 3-5 weeks for them to just resolve the situation....not for me to get the check but for them to resolve it. I've learned that if you ever request money from these retards...you should expect a turn around time of 6 months.... Anyways not that it helps but heres the conversation:

Please wait for a site operator to respond. You are currently customer 1 in queue. Thank you for your patience.

Hello, my name is Anna Bowden. How may I help you today?

You: I would like to know why its taking so long for me to get my withdrawl

Anna Bowden: Please bear with me while I look up your account details.....

You: the last time you guys made me wait this long i ended up having to wait two months before yall cancelled it and made me re request it...i would like to know if this is where it is headed

Anna Bowden: Your withdrawal for $1500 is still in a queue waiting processing. We are doing our utmost to pay our customers as fast as possible without overloading our processors who are somewhat restricted in the volume they can handle on a daily basis. We ask you to please bear with us whilst we work through this and return to a speedier payout routine. Rest assured that we are working on providing more withdrawal options in the near future, thereby making the payment process much smoother and faster.

Anna Bowden: We humbly apologize for the extended delay and thank you for your patience.

You: im talking about the withdrawl for 2500

Anna Bowden: Requested on June 16th?

You: correct

Anna Bowden: This withdrawal is delayed. This situation is sincerely regretted and we can understand any frustration that you may have in relation to this.

You: what do u mean delayed

Anna Bowden: Rest assured that we are working on providing more withdrawal options in the near future, thereby making the payment process much smoother and faster.

You: so how much longer do i have to wait

You: i do not plan on playing the same game with you guys again

Anna Bowden: We are not going to give you unrealistic timeframes. The truth of the matter is that we don't know exactly how long this process will take. Please rest assured that we are currently reviewing several alternatives which will get your funds to you as soon as possible.

You: last time i had to wait 3 months for a payout

You: soo your telling me i have to wait 3 months for 2500 dollars

You: if you cant pay out 2500 dollars than why are you guys even in business

Anna Bowden: I know it is frustrating; however Management is working on a solution on this matter.This is why we do not have a specified timeframe.

You: you dont have a problem taking the money out of my accoutn quickly but you have a problem paying it out

You: can you just tell me if its going to take another three months or not

You: you guys need to seriously take of that disclaimer for 10-15 buisness days

Anna Bowden: We deal with separate processors for deposits and withdrawals. When you make a credit card deposit we get authorization from your credit card company and then credit the funds to you in good faith. Realistically it can take us up to a month to receive the funds from your credit card company. With a withdrawal, we send the funds to the processor who then cuts you a check and sends it.

You: because this is ridicoulous...ive been having to wait months

Anna Bowden: Right now we do not have a timeframe. I really apologize for not been able to give you precise or further information. The 10-15 business day timeframe given is what we aim to meet however when circumstances beyond our control occur we have to be realistic. At this stage, we want to be as upfront with our customers as possible. We are working to get new processors on board and once we do, the withdrawal timeframe will return to the faster schedule we all prefer.

You: so basically it could take me up to a anohter 3 months to receive my money

You: and maybe even a year

You: ?

Anna Bowden: Truthfully, at the moment we are facing at least 3 -5 weeks until the situation can be resolved.

Anna Bowden: Please rest assured you can expect an email from us to fully update you regarding the situation.

You: soo i wont get my check until anohter 3-5 weeks

You: ?

You: am i supposed to be okay with this

Anna Bowden: The 3-5 weeks is for the situation to get resolved, not precisely for your check to be delivered.

You: hahahha soo it could be another 6-20 weeks before i get my money

You: i would like to talk to one of your managers

Anna Bowden: Management is dealing with the new processors and doing all the pertinent negotiations, so we can have this solved as soon as possible.

Anna Bowden: My supervisor is right now monitoring this conversation. All the information given is the one that we all handle at the moment.

You: so bottom line is im screwed and you cant do anything for me

You: why do yall even have a customer service when you keep feeding me the same crap

You: only in the end to tell me that im gonna have to wait a long long time before i even get my monies

Anna Bowden: We extend our most sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused by this issue Dat. Your patience while we reach a resolution to this issue is greatly appreciated. We are trying to do our best for our customers, and have better options for your withdrawals.

You: first off ive been patient long enough and now im out of patience.....and quit giving me the same copy and paste lines you been giving all your other customers...yall need to get your crap to together or close down

Don't do it, that's the quickest and surest way to loss your money. Dumping chips is pretty easy to detect for poker networks, I've read too many accounts of people getting their funds confiscated and accounts frozen because of chip dumps to list.

This is the way to run an account from 5k to 30k, and then be stuck in a real pickle. Ask me, I know

so back to the question are these bankwires legit or no?

So, I assume that you have $6500 there because of poker playing, and not sport bets then. My sympathies. If that is not the case, then what happened to you poker bankroll, and how did you get into this pickle in the first place? As others have said countless times before, good bankroll management is critical if you want to be a poker pro. Check out Mark Blade's book "Professional Poker", it's got pretty good advice on bankroll management.

Good luck.

Well I've manged to get 6K or so out of this place. I know its risky but IMO there is no other option.

I look at it like I get to shots. One the money comes out and if I win then hopfully they pay out.

Anyways I have serveral outs and I only bet when I can make money IE bet one side +105 and the other side even.

Betting a -200 favorite for 4 dimes and then betting the dog +200 is a good way to get into a bind I would agree.

This is ultra risky but I'm willing to give it a shot its worked so far over the last 3 months......SLOWLY.

I know, I tried the same thing. Just saying it can backfire, and when it does it just make things a lot worse. Good luck if you plan on doing more scalping.

[casper]

How about this: Jazette must have a CEO or someone ostensibly at the helm. Just get dude's home phone and hound the bejeezus out of him with 4 a.m. phone calls. Nothing else works......

I'm an average Joe. Sportsbook.com has to have really pissed off some big fish....What's crazy is they have been in the biz for 10 years and did not have relationships with several processors? They can't be that stupid or lazy can they? Actually, from dealing with customer service, I just answered both questions for myself. Yes and yes. F them!

[cinpls081]

Lets get something straight about this outfit. There ARE NO BIG FISH playing with them. There limits are ULTRA small and they only will pay you 2500 a check. They only want the guy betting 200 a game etc. They shade the line .5 to a full point on all public bets. They want the entire handle themselves and want to gamble on all games. They are a complete joke tank. Who is putting money in this place, VIP's yeah sure.
