If requested, can sportsbooks prevent transfer to casino/poker room?

Paterno · Jun 27, 2005

I refuse to enter any casinos anymore but I have lost some $ in some poker rooms after having a few too many. I know a lack of self-discipline and responsibility is the reason for this. However, can I request a sportsbook to not allow me to play in their casino/poker room?

Has anyone done this? What book?

Thanks

I believe many can, yes.

Best to call each individual book and ask.

I actually called one of my books to try and put a stop to this...I have to say, however, i have never played anything in any online casino in my whole life..

I dont even know how to play poker! But my biggest fear was some one hacking my account and going on a spending spree at the casino (whether its a casino employee or some other nefarious evil doer seeking to cause me an unholy pain in the butt)

I called them and spoke to a manager and he said all he could do was to put a notation on my account never to move money into the casino...

I am trying to develop a routine where i log into all my accounts at least 2 or more times a day to make sure no funny business is happening..

Only the casino worries me because thats the only way any one could pilfer some ones money in literally no time at all!
