Urgent: MyBookie STOLE $37,558 - Still waiting for BMR response

[milwaukee mike]

op probably thinks bookmaker should let these bets stand on another shot taker lol... "they owe me $80k! their system generated the lines! they willingly accepted them"

I love the “urgent” in the title of this thread.

You took a shot on some correlated parlays and somehow got paid $10,000. You’ll never see another payout from them. It’s over. Be thankful you got anything from a book with a bad reputation.

BAUS

This company has an A rating, but a lot of people are accusing them of not paying you.

you can justify it all you want... you were a shot-taking thief that makes every other player look bad. "locked in my risk"... what risk is there in placing a ton of $50 parlays that eventually have a 100% chance of being up huge... i guess if you see a +10000 error that should be +100 that's totally legit too, bankrupt every book because of software glitches

Imagine crying on behalf of a multi-million dollar un-regulated sportsbook that freely takes millions from losing players every single day.
You talk about a 'software glitch' like I hacked into their servers. The lines were posted on their public board for everyone to see. If you think a player checking odds and hitting 'Submit' on a public platform is 'theft,' you have a serious slave mentality toward the house.
Here is what you are too dense to understand: MyBookie’s actual security and financial audit teams—who are a lot smarter than you—manually reviewed these exact tickets for 7 full days while holding my bank wire. They voluntarily approved and paid out $10,000. If it was a 'glitch' or 'theft' as you claim, their security would have flagged it and paid $0.
Stop acting like MyBookie's unpaid defense attorney. They approved the play, took the liability, paid a fraction to look good, and then stole the rest. That is the definition of bad faith, and no amount of your corporate bootlicking will change that fact.

I don't think anyone is trying to defend MB. They limited me several years ago and changed rules opposite what they have posted on their website about European hockey. So, I don't have even the slightest desire to defend them. In this case, I probably would have done the exact same thing they are doing. I don't see paying out something on a software error when you are effectively creating a huge payout with no risk. Having a parlay with 2 legs that are exactly the same isn't a parlay in the "spirit" of what a parlay actually is.

I get your side with them, but I just don't see it holding up because of what the actual wager was.

appreciate your civil response, but I want to clarify one major misunderstanding: This bet was absolutely NOT zero-risk. I risked losing 100% of my money.
In soccer, if you parlay a favorite team to win (1X2) with that same team to win at -0.5, you are doubling down on the exact same outcome. If that team draws 0-0 or loses the match, BOTH legs lose instantly, and my entire stake is gone.
There was zero safety net for me. If the underdog scored a late equalizer, MyBookie would have kept my money without a second thought. They wouldn't say, 'Oh, this parlay wasn't in the spirit of a parlay, let us refund your stake.' No, they would have graded it a loss.
My risk was 100% real. The fact that the bet actually won doesn't mean it was risk-free when I placed it. If a book un-regulated accepts 100% of my risk, they must accept 100% of the payout. That is the fundamental rule of gambling.

Brother let’s be real though. You had no risk. Either they catch it and void your bet or in your case they accept it and you get a play that’s WAYYYY above +EV. Even if you lost that bet you can place them non stop until they hit and you’d eventually bankrupt the book.

I’d consider yourself blessed for their mistake and the 10k payout and move on.

As someone who had a MB family book actually steal a balance from me.. I can promise you won’t ever see another cent from this. That being said I’m happy you stuck it to them

i owned a CPA firm yet a bunch of druggies down in costa rica on mybookie's "financial audit teams" are a lot smarter than me... lol you just keep getting more ridiculous.
"imagine crying", i don't have to imagine it, you've been doing it nonstop here, and refusing to take the advice of every single poster who is saying let it go... mybookie is a book with no ethics or morals, and you have acted in the same way. i'm not on either side, the gambling world is better off with neither one of you in it.

Appreciate the real talk, brother. I know the odds of getting the remaining $27,667 from an un-regulated book are very low.
But here is the principle: If I had lost that exact bet, MyBookie would have taken 100% of my money without any hesitation. They wouldn't care about '+EV' or 'the spirit of the parlay'—they would just mark it a loss and keep my cash.
A book cannot accept 100% of the player's risk but only pay out when it suits them. That is the definition of freerolling. Even if I don't see another cent, I want this thread to stay right here on the public record so everyone knows exactly how MyBookie operates when a player wins big. Still hoping a BMR Moderator will look into this."

For someone who claims to own a CPA firm, you sure spend a lot of time crying on a public gambling forum under a fake username.
Let's be real here: you're just another gambler sitting at the same table as the rest of us. Don't act like you're above anyone or hold some high moral ground just because you look at tax forms for a living.
There is a massive difference between a player trying to collect money they legally won on a public platform, and a multi-million dollar sportsbook that actively steals balances. If you can't see that distinction, your CPA firm must not be doing very well.
Keep defending corporate theft while pretending to be superior. The rest of this forum sees right through your bitter attitude
