"I won $37,558 at MyBookie in 2022. They confirmed this via email but then wiped my account, claiming 'related parlays.' However, they already approved and paid me $10,000 (via Bitcoin and Bank Wire) before this, which proves they validated my play. I have 14 screenshots of evidence. I need a Case ID and urgent help from BMR. Thank you!" IMG_5118.pngIMG_5123.pngIMG_5117.png

2022 ? Why are you posting this 4 years later :+clueless
have been trying to resolve this directly with MyBookie since 2022, but they ignored my emails and kept my account locked. I didn't know about the BMR/SBR community back then. Now that I’ve learned there are organizations that help players, I am coming forward to seek justice. The debt is real, I have all 14 screenshots and an official email from MyBookie confirming the $37,558 balance. Justice has no expiration date

His good luck comment was being generous. You ran up a huge balance at a smaller book on obscure sports. Honestly lucky you even got 10k out of them, seems to be the most they will pay out before they analyze accounts. Doesn't mean a dang thing that they acknowledged they removed that amount from your balance. If that's your whole case after 4 years you shouldn't have even signed up on the forum. No one here can help you anyway, not at that book. Also, what part of those parlays not being related do you not get? You are betting multiple variables that are absolutely connected. Again, a small shop is not going to allow that. It's over

I appreciate the feedback, but I disagree. If a sportsbook accepts a wager and issues a ticket ID, they are contractually bound to honor it. 'Related parlays' should be blocked by their software at the time of betting, not used as an excuse to void winnings after the games are over.
Also, the fact that they paid $10,000 proves they audited my account and found it valid at that time. You don't pay out 10k if the whole account is a violation. I am here for BMR’s professional mediation, not for opinions on whether I should have signed up. I have the proof, and I will let the experts handle it.

Definitely a write off. Looking at the ticket...shouldn't some of those selections not been allowed on the same ticket anyways? Could have voided it and knocked the bet down a couple notches and paid.
Exactly! If some selections were 'related,' the system should have blocked the bet or voided those specific and adjusted the payout. But they didn't.Instead, they Accepted the bet, issued a Ticket ID, and most importantly: They already paid me $10,000 from these winnings via Bitcoin and Bank Wire.You can't pay out $10k, then suddenly claim the bet 'shouldn't have been allowed' when it's time to pay the rest. That’s pure bad faith.

It should have but all offshores have the rule to void an obvious error. Should be happy to get something out of it. Betting the favorite -.5 and on the 1x2 line is the exact same bet, or the draw parlayed to the dog +.5 is essentially the same concept. Even some of the state gaming control boards might have let a "DK" type shop void the bet. Difference is they might have caught it sooner and voided it before the game and would have lowered the parlay down removing the "duplicate" items from the parlay (but then the payout would have been peanuts compared to this).

You make a fair point regarding how regulated shops like DraftKings would handle it by catching the duplicate legs early, voiding them, and adjusting the payout.However, MyBookie did something completely different here: They chose to let the games play out, accepted my risk, and actually validated the tickets.Most importantly, they successfully processed a $10,000 withdrawal for me via Bitcoin and Bank Wire. The Bank Wire took a full week to hit my account, meaning their security and audit teams had 7-8 days to review these exact parlays.They only decided to enforce the 'system error' rule when I tried to cash out the remaining $27,667. You cannot audit a player, pay out a portion of the winnings, and then claim a system error to wipe out the rest. That is classic freerolling, and that is why I need BMR to step in.

you think it's "justice" that they pay you money that you stole from them? you're lucky they don't come after you for the 10k... who cares if they graded it and paid you
First of all, nobody 'stole' anything. Players do not write the software code or set the betting markets. MyBookie's system generated the lines, willingly accepted the wagers, locked in my risk, and issued official Ticket IDs.Secondly, they didn't just 'grade it.' They ran a manual security audit on my account when I requested the payout. They spent a full week reviewing the activity before voluntarily sending $10,000 to my bank account and Bitcoin wallet. That is a legal validation of the funds.If those tickets had lost, MyBookie would have kept my money without hesitation. Calling it 'theft' only after a player wins and beats their system is the definition of a freeroll. I am seeking BMR's assistance because sportsbooks must be held accountable to the wagers they accept and audit.

"because sportsbooks must be held accountable to the wagers they accept and audit"

Unfortunately, with the current state of the industry, there's not much that can be done here, only to have the best information possible to know what books are reputable at the time. That list is down to something we can fit on our hand, with exceptions of course. BetOnline, Bookmaker and Bet105. There are others that are good, relatively but not in the Gold Standard and will have issues like this and once they do, there's nothing we can do retroactively.

The legalized gambling landscape along with heavy handed State Governments have made just about everything worse for people that are actually good at this. So our options are $4 Trader Reviewed limits with DK or taking risks Off-Shore. Prediction Markets were nice for almost a full year before fees have even made those somewhat undesirable. Legalized Exchanges nationwide are about our last hope for something that is the best of both worlds.

"You are absolutely spot on about the current state of the industry. The options for winning players right now are terrible—either get limited to pennies by regulated US books like DraftKings or take massive structural risks un-regulated. It really feels like prediction markets and regulated exchanges are the only hope left for a fair game.
I know BMR can't legally force MyBookie to pay, and I know the chances are low. But given that they actually processed a $10k payout and held the wire for a week before doing so, I have to at least put this on the public record. If MyBookie is going to drop below the standard of books like BetOnline or Bookmaker, then at least other players on this forum should see the exact evidence of how they handle a $37k win. Appreciate your insights man.

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
