Agree, this is scary. What's really scary is that I have a lot of money on my account. What happens to it if they shut down?

Sharks – MVP is not temporary. They are done

But you said books were closing left and right. That’s why I asked

Just got off the phone with sportsbook and they said that they are having problems with the servers. The system could be up anywhere from 5 minutes to 2 hours.

I hate that... I would withdraw as soon as possible.
Canbet used to get hacked a lot; after the 2nd time with their servers down I bailed. They were a pretty good book too, but there is nothing worse than getting shut out of a game cause your book is down.

One of the negatives of the internet. It happens to all sites at the worst time (as far as going down)
