Cleaning Up Shop....new Plan Looks Much Like.. Old Plan

Just got off the phone with BetCris and Bodog reps. Talked to them about deposits and withdraws......FYI only..I am not endorsing or blasting any of the mentioned books...just stating the info I got and my plan of attack, to continue to do what I love, play poker and wager on sports.

I like many others ,used the now defunct...Neteller.... to fund and withdraw from the books. Since that option and E check is no longer available, I inquired, as to what were my options, all which were rather confusing, had built in fees and fall under the category of unknown, at least in my mind. Personally, I do not trust these other options, or the many that will pop up, in the near future, I'm sure.

Some here at the mall, have advised us of ways, of creating Swiss and offshore bank accounts. If that works for you, good. I however am not taking that stand, or approach. I am an American...if Uncle Sam wants to throw me in jail...because I play poker and wager online...then let them try. If they want a piece of the action, a % of my winnings...then get proper legislature, make it legal......and tax my azz!

OK...so much for the public service announcement...................Only one option...stuck out...Western Union....Not a new idea, by any means, I used it to fund and withdraw from my accounts, back in the day, before Paypal and Neteller.

So, back to my talk with Betcris.....I was told that they take Western Union for deposits, but get this...they don't use use it to give payouts !!!
Don't know what's up there...just their policy. Truly I am bummed because it's my fav. place for wagers.

Bodog rep....stated that they use Western Union for deposits and payouts
and good news !!......they pick up the fees for every payout, as long as you are requesting only one payout per week.

MY PLAN OF ATTACK
WITH THE PRESENT SITUATION WE ARE FACING, MY PLAN IS TO USE WESTERN UNION TO FUND AND RECIEVE PAYOUTS, KEEPING THE AMOUNTS SMALL AND UNDER THE RADAR. I WILL BE USING BODOG ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY,FOR NOW, EVEN THOUGH IT'S MY FAV. PLACE FOR POKER, NOT CRAZY ABOUT THEIR LINES.I WILL MONITOR THE WESTERN UNION SITUATION, CONCERNING BETCRIS,TO SEE IF THAT CHANGES. THIS ALL TRANSLATES INTO LESS BETTING, LESS OPPORTUNITES, BUT IT IS A NECCESARY ACTION ,FOR ME, TO TAKE AT THIS TIME.

I WISH EVERYONE THE BEST OF LUCK...PLEASE DEVISE A SOUND PLAN TO PROTECT YOURSELVES, WHILE CONTINUING TO PERSUE YOUR PASSIONS. DO WHAT WORKS FOR YOU AND YOU WILL NEVER HAVE REGRETS. PEACE
