I think ussportsbook is owned by them as well.

Same software, same policies.

Be careful.

BG - thanks, I don't have an account there though. I thought this might happen...maybe that D- book will pay...:lolBIG: . Oh well, I am still coming out ahead on these bonus's so long as they all don't follow the same route.

posted by Rpm at another site....

here is the info i have so far. The majority owner of richcoast sports had a heart attack and regretably has to end his involvement with the sportsbook. new owners have stepped in and taken equity positions from Mercedes.

At this time, it appears that richcoast has moved locations and will be sharing some office space with bookthebet. the ip changeovers are the reason that some people are seeing bookthebet info on the richcoast website.

at this time, there is no definite deal that tony from bookthebet will have any ownership of richcoast. However, it is a possibility, but it will be as a minority owner if it does happen.

I should have more information within the hour so stay tuned...

vegasisstilldead · Dec 27, 2005

here is something sbr posted a few days back about the book doing the "bail out"...Gets better and better!!!

BookTheBet (SBR rating D-) asking 2wagerSports and UWagerSports victims to throw good money after bad? BookTheBet’s owner is calling customer lists from these scam sportsbooks, offering huge "bailout" bonuses. One player reports being offered $8,900 if he is willing to deposit $2,000 and wager the total amount ten times. Players should avoid all sportsbooks offering too-good-to-be-true bonuses as well as sportsbooks who are giving out U.S. phone numbers.

Doug · Dec 27, 2005

Unfortunate ! Looks like the bailouts are there, so get ready to roll your own money 15-20 X, or whatever.I dodged this bullet, but feel for those affected !

Seymour · Dec 27, 2005

Wow, they called me alot this year - about a month ago JJ called them one of the up and coming book at Major's - hahahahahahah

Kornholio · Dec 27, 2005

From what I'm hearing now, they will share space with bookthebet but not be bailed out by them....they are being taken over by Mercedes (software) as majority owner...and will still be richcoastsports. who knows? if I ever see my cash I will be happy.

Geez glad I saw this today i was going to take advantage of the bonus offer at ussportsbook was advertising at TOW. I think I will pass....not worth the risk at this point

RPM · Dec 27, 2005

ussportsbook and richcoast sports are not related in any way.

TIGERPAW · Dec 30, 2005

I got on at Richcoast on Dec 8 with the bonus,rollover and 30 day wait.I have had my best 3 weeks ever betting games and have my balance up the most ever at a book, and now this shit any clue what will happen went to RC last night it took me to book-the-bet site with my funds there
have another 9 days until the 30 day wait is over for the bonus offer any info would help...This like is like losing a bet by a hailmary and coming home finding your girl with the milk man.

Kornholio · Dec 30, 2005

TigerPaw--we are being given the run-around right now by roberto and rpm, but apparently something has been worked out. They keep saying they are going to tell us the finalized details...in a hour, tomorrow, a little while longer, but it never comes. Check over at Theoffshorewire, that is the place you will get the info on this....when it finally comes. Don't hold your breath.

TTinCO · Dec 30, 2005

Tiger, email me your account info at TTinCO@TheRx.com.

I'll do everything I can to make sure that you get paid.

TIGERPAW · Dec 30, 2005

email is on it's way TTinco please help if you can..Thanks Tigerpaw

catsfan · Dec 30, 2005

TOW is reporting that the the documents to transfer the assets of RCS to its new owners are taking place. The incoming owners will be making the official announcement on Saturday. TOW is also reporting that the players will be extreemly satisfied with this transaction. Hopefully that means no roll over requirements. This should finally be settled tomorrow.

Kornholio · Dec 30, 2005

Finally....I counted my money as lost, not that I had a lot in there (400). Any money is free at this point but this dragged on and on. Nice to have a Roberto on your side though, i might add.

Dont feel bad i brought 4 bookies that were presumed dead back to life after that S Carolina game and i dont think Roberto can even help me out!!

SamOdom · Dec 30, 2005

Anyone with a RCS acct will be foolish to leave any cash there, if (big ass if) you can get your balance out in full this weekend or by Monday at the latest, DO IT! Dont be the last person getting on the train

Kornholio · Dec 30, 2005

sam i still have a rollover to complete so i can't

TTinCO · Dec 30, 2005

All indications are that this will be resolved within the next 12-36 hours and that there will be no rollover.
