In light of all the offshore garbage I have officially retired from sports betting. I dont trust my money to orginizations that may or may not be around after 6pm Sunday night. Why chance it? I keep reading post after post about different ways to fund accounts, more posts about transfers, deposits, and hoping to get paid. WHY? It just isnt worth it. If you lose, you lose your money. If you win, you may still lose your money. Many books will probably fold after the superbowl. Do you really want money at one of these? Those that dont fold, many will use the US govt. as an excuse to not pay. "Sorry US wont let us send you the money. We really want to but...." Do you want to deal with that? What's to keep a book from shutting down "because of the US", keeping all the money "because the US wont let us pay you" and just laying low for a few months to see how it all plays out. Now they have your money and there is nothing you can do about it.
It may already be too late. I have a total of $25 in one account right now. If I get it to $100, I will cash it out too.
Hopefully this will clear up by baseball season and I will un-retire. If not, so be it. I believe within 2 or 3 months things will settle down. If it doesn't, at least I have my money.
Good luck to those of you that have to bet the superbowl. I know many are planning on cashing out right after that. The books know that too.
