T.B and HenryVIII,
Let's bury the hatchet and start thinking of the wider picture. Inetbet,Bodog, Crown Vegas, Prism and Shark are all featured in different threads recently. All of these are RTG-powered casinos and since RTG is the only major software that are not ousting US players we are likely to see more and more of them in this forum, for better or worse. The fact is, there seems to be more and more shreds of evidence to prove that they have tightened their slots and if this is the only option available to USA players, they are getting a rotten deal. We should share more on this.

In fact, if I had a friend who was doing that i would probably have a word about their priorities in life.
It is clearly an unhealthy attitude to life IMHO.
And, you know what, I think that is not even controversial or "slamming" .. just common sense.

I know this thread has gone on long enough but using the $25 was just an example -But you have to twist it into me being a social moron? Come on Henry, lighten up.

I didnt take offense from you. I was a little offended by the first person who asked me why I gambled because I was disabled. I was just explaining that not everyone that plays slots are brainless
No problems here.......Im just one of those people that explains more than I really have to because I got nothing better to do lol. I should be called the "over analyzer"

I also agree with you that one of the many problems of gambling addiction, often overlooked, is the impact that it can have on your social life. Again, I believe it's up to the individual to keep this in check. But for some of us, there is no harm in playing some slots once a week, as long as the rest of your life is balanced. For me, it's a release. I can get my daughter in bed, and sit back and relax (and hope that I get some play time out of my $25, lol).
100% correct. You say it so much better than me !!

Who is hank? You keep calling me this.
Is this supposed to be an insult or something?
Or, once again, have you been unable to understand something.
To help, if you look closely ... whenever I post you will see the name "HenryVIII" appear as well. Every time. THIS IS NOT A COINCIDENCE !! Its actually my "user name".
Have a look now ... can you see it?
Now, whenever you read a post ... look in the ery same place ... but remember, there will be different names there for different posters. Don't let this confuse you. Just like in real life, different people have different posting names.
Give me a shout if you are still confused.

That IS part of the game, and you WILL lose a majority of the time, and they all need to accept that.

I've never had a problem with Bodog when depositing through firepay or neteller. The payout request is usually in my account within 2 hours.

Bodog takes forever to clear direct bank deposits. They are not the only site that does this. Just because the money has left your account, it doesn't mean Bodog has received the money free and clear. I'm sure the bank has a period of time where they can reverse EFTs due to insufficient funds. Bodog is protecting themselves from this.
Why the hell are you gambling if you're on SSD?

Hi
This is my first post, btw..it's nice to meet all of you
I deposited $25 through instadebit over 10 days ago at bodog, Im not asking for help because I already have something being done. I just wanted to let you know about the slow pay. Who knows, maybe Im wrong since Im a new player but when I won $500 on 32Vegas, I got my money within the 5 day period as promised.
I won $75 at bodog (i know , it's not alot but Im on SSD) I requested a payout 9 days ago (at that time it was 9) I emailed them after 7 business days telling them my deposit had to have cleared because my bank took it right away. I got an email with a "software glitch" excuse along with an apology. I waited 2 more days (11 days now) and still no payout to instadebit. I emailed them again and they denied ever saying they had an email to me on file re: a software glitch.
I got bored and took out $25 of the $75 and turned it into a $300 payout instead of just a $75 (that's what they get for ta... | | Read Entire Entry |
