CRIS..." We can't pay you fast enough" slogan

Doug · Jan 25, 2006

Has a funny meaning, if you think about it. It's like the old " I could care less" or" I couldn't care less " thing. If you don't care about the result of something and say I could care less, doesn't that indicate you care somewhat already ?

" We can pay you fast enough" doesn't sound good, though, it implies we can pay you fast, but may or may not pay promptly, but" we can't pay you fast enough" could mean we are flat broke.

CRIS pays fine, but there are two ways to read the slogan.

Thats the same thing I thought when I read it...could be positive or negative...matters how yo read it

Another one is "Take your time and wager at your Own Pace"..on the 5dimes website. It should read "Take you time ...because our servers do"

I hadn't noticed that one, but can't miss the CRIS slogan on the free shirts.

Here's another oddity with CRIS, the rewards points aren't structured correctly. If you play more, and save the points up you get less for them, and risk confiscation.

It's like selling something for 25 cents or 3 for a dollar.

I'll tell you one thing as I posted here about two weeks ago. CRIS doesn't pay you as fast as they used to as I found out from personal experience. Unless you cash out on a Friday, there is a $15 fee charged. You also have to have your request in by a certain hour and it gets posted to your NETeller account by 5 PM. It might be faster, but not by that much.

Say what you want about Bodog, but when it comes to cashing out via NETeller, I've found my money to be in my account at NETeller within an hour or faster, and NO fees! I've even put in a request at Bodog at 3 am PST, and had my money in my NETeller account within a half hour. Now that's what I call fast.

I don't think getting paid within 24 hours is a big deal. Getting paid at all is the most important thing in this industry.

I think that saying came from way back when Socko was running the shop, maybe still is?
He told me once that he didnt care if i won EVERY week as long as i was laying 11-10, and he meant it too.

Locals i know use same saying.....WE cant pay you FAST enough, but remember its a 2-way street!

While it's true that getting paid is the most important thing, sometimes you want to use your money elsewhere, like for an upcomming poker tournament, and time is of the essence!
