Joe,

Unfortunately, it looks like this is the end of BJO. There is hope that the owner realizes this won't go away very easily and it is in his best interest to pay. It does not look good.

What do you recommend to players with balances? Can they file a complaint with you to help recover funds?

Joe,
Still trying to find out more... What assets are in CR if any? if it's worth it for them to steal such a small amount? Off chance Capilleira hosting has something held in escrow this time? We will keep the board posted.

I have $4000 in my account and requested small withdrawal on Friday. I guess it was too late...Their site is offline, no reply on emails, phones are down.
It seems that our only hope is if Bill can work something out

I hope people get paid, but i really can't say i'm surprised. You can't give this type of money away and expect to survive. I wish all those with $$$ in there the best of luck!

This one came out of left field today. I just spoke with Joey on March 14th and he never made mention of any problems at all. I'm sure this will be one memorable St.Patrick's Day for the people that just got robbed by BJO.

Luck o' the Irish - potato famine.

Not that anyone is getting anything back here, but let me ask this. Should any players still holding SBG bailout credit be paid in advance of players who have real post up money at BJO ?

If it comes down to who gets paid first, definately post up players should be paid first before SBG victims.

This book never had a chance. On October 31st, I said

"they are apparently offering "no-juice" on all wagers...I'm always alarmed when I see a promo like that, since a book will lose money long-term with that. No matter how well financed a book it, it will either end that promo, or go under."

Don't say I didn't warn you.

I really don't care about my account balance. I'm hoping the mid 4 figure cheque I deposited today goes through. It will be a little kick in the balls if it doesn't.

dude, I know their rating, I know BetRoyals rating, I know SIA's rating, I know pinny's rating, I know the greeks rating. It's called risk reward. Why make a play on utah -13.5 -112 at pinny when you can get them at BJO at-13.5 -103. We gambled and apparently lost.

On behalf of everyone, thanks for your concern.

Sorry to anybody that lost money.

But, many smart people on here pointed out their business model (50% bonuses, -103/-103 linesets, and buying 1/2pts off the 3 in the NFL for 10 cents) was completely impossible to sustain.

As far as I know I am the only person who has bailout credit who has not already been paid. I just met my $600,000 rollover a few days ago and had not requested a payout yet. I know most of the people who got bailout credit and all of them have been paid.

I didn't know that you didn't get paid. My balance at Bet Royal was $34,000. 20 times rollover was $680,000. I just completed the rollover a few days ago.

Sorry to hear this, but I recall telling you to bet anything and everything to complete this rollover, and get yourself to the front of the line for payouts.
