I understand all of that.
But you either seem to be missing the point/question, or ignoring it.
From the moment the bookie accepted the deposit from a source not in bookmaker account holders name and allow the account to start placing bets, how can they really lose?
Either the account ends in...
I understand that, anyone logging to to multiple accounts at the one bookmaker on the same IP and/or device is asking for trouble.
But that's got nothing to do with the scenario I'm talking about. There was no multiple accounts, it was a single account funded by a card not in the account...
Why can't a bookmaker know this as soon as the deposit is made though?
In the example I gave, the bookmaker clearly knew at some point that it wasn't his card (from the start, I'm not sure), so why did they wait until he attempted to withdraw?
So you're saying if he had lost money, they would...
No dramas bud.
The issue would be that if too many people start betting on markets like that, they'll wonder what is going on, shut them down and most likely not pay out.
I also had a hot tip on who would win the brownlow, but let's not go in to that one ...
I'd just like to give a shoutout to Betr.
Not sure how many people follow tennis, or the next gen ATP tournament. But the next gen is a first to 3 sets match, but it's only first to 4 games each set, not the usual 6.
Betr had all their markets based on it being 6 games. Things like a player to...
If you want dodgy practices ....
A mate of mine created an account at SportsBet, deposited $1000 in to it and went about betting.
A few months later he ends up with about $2000 in there, and decided he'd withdraw $1000 so at least that covered his original deposit, and he'd keep betting with...
Most bookmakers set minimum odds the money needs to be turned over at, for that very reason.
It's the same today, even know they can't legally make you turn over the winnings from bonus bets, they can make you turn over the deposit you used to get a bonus (if it was a deposit bonus), and most...
I'm not sure why anyone is shocked a bookmaker would do something questionable.
The whole industry is shady. Lose money and they keep on giving you incentives to gamble, look like you have some idea, and it's stake limiting time or account closure.
It should be considered discrimination.
Betr are having a heap of issues at the moment, but you can use them to your advantage.
For instance, on the NBA over the past few days, when the markets change, they have been leaving some of the old markets up. The Charlotte vs San Antonio game yesterday started out with an over or under...
May 2019
But like most legislation in place, bookmakers just try and get around it. It's hard to get around it when the bounses are from money back promos like the racing ones, but for any sign up or deposit bonuses, all they've done is shift the turnover requirements from the bonus winnings...
