I remember reading a post by Vanzack in which he gave the necessary qualifications needed to open an account at Matchbook, Betfair, Pinnacle etc....

Can Vanzack or someone else please post the link if you have it?
Thanks so much for your help in advance.

If I remember correctly, Vanzack said all that was needed to open an account at one of those sites were:
1) foreign address where it is legal to bet online
2) utility bill at that address
3) a bank in that country

My question is, what happens with payouts? Won't you need that country's ID?
And what about payouts, if we reside in the US, I guess we can't withdraw via checks? just bank transfers?


Vanzack? please help! need your expertise badly...

Thanks for your help, obviously I have weighed all my options, and figure this is the best way for me to go. Moving to Vegas or playing live poker all day is not for me. Thanks for you input.

here's the exact quote of what he said:

"You need:

1.  A credit account.
OR
2.  A foreign street address, a foreign bank account, and a foreign IP address - preferably all in the same location.

They will surely geolocate the IP address.

A somewhat simple but potentially costly (about 75 bucks a month) solution is a private VPN from a gaming friendly country, but the IP has to match the account address, and so does the banking info.

Add it up, see if it is worth it to you to get pinny, mb, and betfair."

Dosan,

You need to establish a checking account located in a country outside of the US

That doesn't make sense....all I would need is a foreign checking account? I would think one would need that and a foreign address and foreign IP address..

Reading the quote again, I can see how that can be confusing.

You do need all those things you stated as well as a utility bill from the address you use.

Dosan, do you have any degenerate friends or relatives that live outside the US?

Tell them to open an account with the Greek and place bets for you.  This person absolutely has to be trustworthy though.
