First, Moneybookers traditionally has never given a rat's ass about whether their MERCHANTS were scammers or not. Moneybookers regularly puts scam/stiff/unknown sportsbooks on their promo page, solely because these books pay them ... and Moneybookers has never made any attempt at due diligence to determine the strength/legitimacy of these books. So I don't want to hear about ther good intentions at trying to dissuade fraud.

Second, Moneybookers have many customers (including myself) who have transferred funds to other Moneybookers customers. As a recent personal example, I had excess funds "offshore" (in my Moneybookers account) ... a fellow SBR...

Basically, this e-mail is saying that the MOST I can withdraw by Moneybookers is the amount that I deposited using Moneybookers. In other words, they are saying that if I deposited a total of $10,000 by Moneybookers in the...

Raydog has basically nailed it with his recent posts.

One thing I will add ...


The original poster claimed/claims that he did not know that the 20-1 Top 20 Finish was a "bad line", and uses his not knowing as one of the reasons why he thinks his bet should stand.

I personally don't believe him, and think that he actually did know in his his heart that it was a bad line. However, whether or not he realized it was a bad line is irrelevant in determining whether the 20-1 bet should be modified or cancelled. If the 20-1...

I've been meaning to start a thread like this for awhile ... will add to it as time permits ... so many things they could do to improve, many of which are very simple fixes ... but as already mentioned, Matchbook just doesn't seem to give a shit about feedback from their players, and likely nothing will happen.

First thing that would be simple to do, involves MLB lines ... I would like to be able to view all MLB games at once, so that I can scroll down and see NL and AL games at the same time ... however,...

What would have happened had BOS not gotten busted by the feds and had their funds seized ?

I know that BOS is widely despised for a few reasons, not the least of which is because many people lost a lot of money ...

But the small issue I have is that I hear a lot of self-proclaimed prophets bragging because they say they "called" the BOS downfall and subsequent stiffing that resulted ... problem is, they were "right for the wrong reasons" ... most (or all) of these people simply claimed that BOS were going to shut down, head for the hills, and stiff the players, and cited the bad apples in BOS management as the primary reason this would happen ... none (or very very few) actually predicted that the shutdown/stiffing would be a result of government confiscation of funds.

So what would have happened if the government hadn't stepped in ... would all of these armchair Nostradamus's have been right, or would BOS still be alive and kicking ?
