Isn't any cc deposit to a sportsbook considered a cash transaction? I don't even know if you can do it anymore from the US (you probably can't). But for anyome who doesn't know.....DON'T DO IT! I did it a couple of years ago and the fees were ridiculous. On top of that it really jacks up your minimum payment. Luckily, I had a low cc balance at the time and it wasn't that big a deal. But if have a balance of a few thousand, I think you are totally screwed. But yeah, I have done it...never again though.
first trip to vegas i was retarded and forgot to take out cash before leaving for my trip, so once in vegas i had no money on me basically, under $100, max atm was around 500 per day, so i had to go to the cage and take out cash from there and get finger printed. it was like a $45 fee on $1,000
i have a friend who got a rather large cash advace but was basically broke as a result of gambling. he lost all the money from his cash advance in a desperate last ditch attempt to win back the money he had lost. he was in deep trouble with the bookie and the bank, and took him a few years to get his life back in order. despite my protests, he started gambling again about a month ago.
Oh ya, did it numerous times. The worst was at a casino outside of Cincinnati I think. Pulled out 3k at a time when I could not afford to lose 3k. Have done much more at other times, but then those times never really mattered as I was flush.
For all of those bitching about the fees, I have always had the casino reimburse those fees by just asking the pit boss. Most of the times just handed me chips to cover, but at the absolute worst, I would get a match play. Tell me you guys know to do this!
