I think this is a very legit issue. This year I have already decided not to mess around and just stay local which kills me because I can't really lay early action.

Why do you think Western Union and Moneygram are the most widely used, safest methods of withdrawing and depositing. Have you ever heard of the Feds EVER doing anything to those two U.S Corporations? No! Then why don't offshore books encourage these two methods? Its simple. They and their players are too cheap to pay the freight. So books lower the limits via WU and MG on withdrawals, not so much on deposits, why? Too costly. No other reason. There are thousands of young guys and girls in Costa Rica who are tickled to death to make a few bucks to be a processor. But, its discouraged, because like it used to be, when they wanted to pay you on time, they loved WU and MG. Now that they are making big bucks, they just prefer holding your money as long as they can, certainly not because of any "heat." Simply put, Western Union has too much clout to get busted. There is simply too much taxes being paid from worldwide transactions via Western Union to let offshore wagering stop Western Union or aggrivating them. Theres a better chance you will see the Pope arrested before WU gets "slapped." Just my opinion. Comon sportsbooks, go back to your old ways and give the players a fair shake. It was ok when you started, why not now?

I remember when so called experts said there would never be sportsbooks in casinos in Nevada. Then the experts said no other state, other than Nevada would ever legalize sports betting. We might not live to see it, but one day, whoever is alive, will be able to wager on any sporting event in any state in this union. I always thought that we were a government of laws, not of men. Sometimes, and its rare, I wonder.

Supposedly I've been blacklisted from receiving payouts WU from Costa Rica from my book. Ever hear of this?

This is far from the truth.

WU and MG may be the MOST dangerous way of sending/receiving money.
