Guest ChrisHarvard Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 GTbets is currently offering a 100% reload bonus for foots this year. DO NOT PLAY THERE. You cannot trust any book that has in their fine print they can void your winnings if they feel you are a "professional" punter, member of a syndicate, ect... Good books do not give a shit if you are a "professional". These type books that claim this say it's at "their discretion" whether you are a pro or not. I challenge you to check where you are playing at, read the fine print and see if they singing the same song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. NBA Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 Most books that offer bonuses will have that stipulation..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ChrisHarvard Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 I put in a lot of work to my plays. I will be damned if I play at a book that can void my winnings because they deem me as "professional". And you're right, bonuses complicate things. That's why it's better not to fuck around with them. But what I'm saying about GTbets has nothing to do with the bonus. I'm saying do not play there if you plan on winning. They will either tie your funds up with shenanigans or just slow pay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingKolzig Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 i played there. so few betting options i only see the 50% reload bonus. what site is offering 100%? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ChrisHarvard Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 I read about it across the street. I can't verify the 100% deposit part personally....or the limiting, stiffing, and being generally sneaky bastards that void winnings and limit winners. Just these type of things I read from time to time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ChrisHarvard Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Well correction, the confiscating your winnings if they think you are a sharp, I can verify because I have read it myself on their website. Which is why I would never play at GT bets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiberianCowboy Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 There are just sooo many loopholes in the t&c's of most bonus shops, my initial reaction is to never play at them. But sometimes the +ev is too good to pass up, so it really does become a risk-reward decision. I think that you really have to do your homework before you post up at a bonus shop, because you really can be playing with fire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All books have a 'fuck you' clause but it's never used. Their selections and website suck but they do pay and do give best bonus available anywhere (straight cash homey) right now.

Hedge Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Not overly concerned about GT Bets stiffing, but they do limit quickly. Had me down to $50 limits the very next day after depositing due to "player profile" they said was reported by another book I played at years ago (VIP). Scummy move IMO. I eventually busted out on my deposit and have no intention of going back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronald Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Not a STIFF book in my opinion, but definitely a shit book. Bait and switch with bonus offers and quick to limit, making meeting of rollover next to impossible without betting the board daily. Like Chuck Sims used to say: "Avoid shit books" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milwaukee mike Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 What do you speak of? when you go to betislands.com it redirects to gtbets.eu i don't think it's a huge deal but time will tell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVU Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 You can only do a redirect if you own the URL. So they either bought bet islands or they are bet islands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spankie Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 You can only do a redirect if you own the URL. So they either bought bet islands or they are bet islands And it's been the same owner for many years. Fishy fishy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rito Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 You can only do a redirect if you own the URL. So they either bought bet islands or they are bet islands I doubt SSLP was still paying for the url, they probably bought it for $5 somewhere without having the slightest idea that it was a former stiff book. This book is run by ex vip employees curacao, it's not near Costa Rica. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVU Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 there's gotta be a connection, Rito. No one would buy an url and invest all this effort and money into a site name without doing due diligence. They aren't using the name, but are using the re-direct. This was done on purpose and not by accident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yisman Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 I can't figure out why someone would want the betislands url to redirect to them. You would have to assume everyone in the offshore world knows the name and what it means. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
