They just refunded my futures plays to win the world series but still no money for winners that were pending.

I said it a few months ago and this confirms it when the most integrity driven sports book is forced out of the US market. You better take your money out of all books, just a matter of time before off shore is eliminated in the US with places like poker stars, full tilt and the greek being forced out. Back to bookies and leg breaking for young, inexperienced kids who will not know any better.Very sad...

Talked to John at Heritage and within 10 minutes every penny was in my account from the Greek. It the 1st withdrawal shows on time I may have found my next book.

I am abandoning offshore books...I play 2 college games per week at $1K to $5K per wager.   I will make trips to Vegas.   I think it will give me more focus and not make intraday wagers (normally losers) due to the convenience of online offshore books.   The Greek was perceived as a pillar of strength and I was with them for 6 years,    though I previously trusted the Greek, I currently don't trust the offshore books with the ability to withdraw.   In addition, I never really liked to stigma of doing something that was not completely legit from a legal perspective.     The sad thing about this is that the degenerate gambling junkies will still find a US Federal Govt Sanctioned Native American Casino to lose their hard earned money, and the Vegas Sportsbooks and Casinos will still make out like bandits.   They disguise this enforcement as "Homeland Security."  I call it hypocrisy and corruption in our government.

If youre betting 1k to 5k and you live in Texas (going by your profile), going to Vegas twice a week would cut into your profits so much it be pointless
