I don't even think that post was that negative. I've criticized them much more harshly in the past about everything I listed, especially their handling of the botting accounts. There was a thread dedicated to this network that was pretty active prior to this sponsored forum being opened where about half of my posts mentioned the bot problems present on this network.

If you feel like searching that thread for my name and the word 'bots' I think you'll find plenty of reading.



I've easily been their most outspoken critic over the last few years. I'm not sure why you think they would pay me for that, unless I was an affiliate. I've been told I should become one by a few different people, but I'm not sure I'd be able to stay as unbiased as I am if I was to do that.

You're only seeing what you want to see with my posting and looking for someone else to blame for your current frustrations with this network. The truth is, I have no obligations to, or vested interest in, this network other than that this is the place where I currently prefer playing at over my other options.

That preference doesn't stop me from helping answer questions from forum members here looking to play at other US friendly sites. If you regularly read threads throughout the Internet Poker forum you'd see that. That is the main reason for my regular presence in these forums. I like to help other players feel more comfortable about getting into the games. I've never lied or misled other forum members here to get them to play at one site over another. I simply state the facts and let them decide where they'd like to play at given their options.

I'm not sure when stating facts become the equivalent of fellatio, but I'm not surprised you don't know the difference if you think I'm a spineless tool of a shill for this network who needs to rebuild my reputation and should be utterly ashamed after they made a change I had no say in and have stated that I thought it was poorly handled.
I have been a pretty active viewer of any internet poker related thread for a year plus, and I really never see you talking bad about bol, with your criticism being very understanding and nothing like how it is for other sites. How you can advocate for a site thats going to effectively hold your money hostage and not segregate player funds, give zero rakeback or rewards. ZERO. And do nothing in the benefit of the players. But they sure have you sold. Are you sure its not bought?

If you're an active viewer of any internet poker related thread, it shouldn't come as a surprise that you may have missed the posts by MCA criticizing BOL. That's a lot of content!

You keep asserting that player funds are segregated. Has this been proven, or are you simply speculating? Speculation is fine, but when you assert something without having demonstrated that this is in fact the case, your credibility dwindles considerably.

With that being said, I don't like the site very much myself. It has good software, cashing out my balance was simple and easy, but their ability to stop the bots has been weak at best and they really do not care about providing any kind of real rewards to its cash players. If you dig a bit into the threads on this sub-forum, as I'm sure you are a pretty active viewer, you'll find the criticisms you're searching for. All the best!

Its been over 3 weeks now coming up on the 1 month mark.
It has now been an entire month that my account was locked and despite countless times to get an answer from them I have gotten NO RESPONSE other than to simply wait for a response. Its not even debatable anymore. This site has outright stolen my money.

Go to the thread I showed you and comb through as many of my posts as you feel like. I'm not going to quote and post them all here for you.

I talk s*** about all of our options because they all do stupid s***. I talk the most about this network because it's where I play the most. I play here the most because it's where I enjoy playing out of my limited options. If something better came along then I probably wouldn't play here as much. I'm not an advocate for this network. Like I said, I state facts. I tell people the truth and let them decide what option is best for them. I don't blame anybody for choosing not to play here since there are plenty of legitimate reasons not to. If you do, then I can tell you what's what, and that's what I try to do.

I'll give you one guess who made the post in the link below from the Where can US players play? thread.

Post #6702 *Updating soon.

Does that post say BetOnline/the Chico Network is the best and f*** these other sites?

Question for you guys. I made a deposit, went through fine etc. I got a call 5 minutes late from a 772 Nevada number that my phone determined was spam but I answered anyway. Guy didn't introduce himself and just asked if I was mr. So and so and I said yes. Brief pause and he hung up. I called back and the number is not in service. I google the number and there are a ton of negative spam reports and it says its BOL. Were they verifying I'm not a bot or something? Never experienced anything like that in by 18 years of online poker lol. Anyone else get this call?

Other then that I've enjoyed my time here. I still play mostly at bovada because I love zoom nl but this site has great software, etc.

Need to give some credit to tigergaming today, just did a cashout and had the BTC in my BTC wallet within 30 minutes of requesting the cashout.

Good work guys. Impressive

I can't imagine that interaction has anything to do with a bot check. Bots still have humans running them. A human answering the listed phone number would not exclude a person from using a bot.

They often call you when you just sign up to help you with the process of funding your account and offer you deposit bonuses. They sometimes call to tell you about different ongoing promotions and deposit bonuses. They confirmed that they knew all of my account details when they called a while back. It's definitely somebody from BetOnline. It's a bit unusual, but it's not a scam.

The max cashout of $3000 is a major problem. Why would anyone play on this site knowing they can’t cashout?

The site offers slot jackpots in excess of 100k a bad best jackpot in excess of 100k and the max cashout is $3000?

I think BOL has had some great improvements.. Software, etc. This is an issue that needs to be majorly addressed, though.

A site should not be offering $1m JPSNG / 6 figure BBJ and allow players sitewide to only make $3000 withdrawals per 7 business days.. I personally have an excess of funds on the site and I request $3k once every 7 business days since this rule has been in place.. I receive BTC in <10mins sometimes.. which is excellent. But how can there be *NEW* promotions offering $1m JPSNGs, and huge prizepool tournaments when players can only cashout $3k/week. I understand the concept.. I understand the reasoning behind it.. I understand BOL is a book 1st and poker site 2nd.. but there has not been any news of when this restriction will be lifted; or any update involving this issue.

To those of you saying BOL isn't liquid; I believe that is also an asinine comment and fear-mongering recreationals shouldn't be your goal.

*Make exceptions during this time for players who are winning tournaments! Recreationals winning a tournament for $15-20k+ and see they can only take $3k/7 business days will cause a potential loss in that players' business for a lifetime.

The thing is this actually hurts them. I’m sure their higher level casino players won’t play there anymore after this change. Imagine being a 1k a hand BJ player and realizing you can only cashout 3k a week. They won’t even play.

I get doing it in the beginning because maybe there were panic cash outs but we are past that point. I’m sure plenty of people are depositing now.

Betonline please change this. Many of your players trust you but this cashout policy is very shady and erodes the trust!
04-27-2020 , 08:42 PM
Adding I also just realized their cashout policy hurts recreational players as well.

Say you cashout $200 you have to wait 9 calendar days to cashout again. No recs I know would be comfortable with that.

Why limit the number of times someone can cashout? You could still have the weekly amount limit.
04-28-2020 , 11:23 AM
The limit thing is a bit weak, however I just went 24 mins from request to money in blockchain. Kudos thanks bol
05-02-2020 , 05:43 PM
Got cashout in under an hour. I can't be mad at that.

BOL won't allow me to withdraw funds without rollover. Anything you deposit in BOL, even if you don't use a bonus code or deposit bonus, must be wagered, otherwise they won't give you access to your funds.

I've tried to take out my funds 6 times now this week, talking with several reps. They won't even put me in cotnact with a supervisor. They won't allow me to pay a withdraw fee. They won't email me back. They are simply forcing me to gamble my full deposit in their site or they will never give me back my funds. Unreal.

Be very careful before depositing on this site, because they make it impossible to get your funds back unless you play through your deposit. Their customer service is atrocious. I will never play on this site again knowing how difficult it is to withdraw funds.

Every site has atrocious online CS. Virtually very site has a rollover policy.

What site do you play at where you don't have a play-through after a deposit? That is standard practice these days at any online gambling site that I'm aware of.

1. Sites have to pay processing fees on transactions.
2. Sites don't want you laundering money through them.

If you think it's difficult to get money off of here then you must have not read the withdrawal thread over the past 6 months or so where several players can confirm that they've consistently been near the top of online poker sites when it comes to quick cash-out times, many have got their funds within hours, not days.

Almost every site I’ve ever played on has made me do this, most recently global poker.

Hi Remsavirem,

It is standard across all online casinos that you would need at least 1x of wagering on your deposit before being able to withdraw, this is due to money laundering.
We are well known for being one of the easiest and quickest at withdrawing funds.

If you need further assistance please send me a private message with your email address and account number.

Kind regards

Mike

Hey BetOnlineMike... when is the $3K once per 7 business days withdraw limitation going to be removed? As much as we all love taking it straight in the ass from you guys, any update to relieve some pain would be appreciated.
05-07-2020 , 03:12 PM
is it a bad idea to send BTC from betonline to my cashapp? thats the method im using to put the BTC on the site.
05-07-2020 , 03:17 PM
When depositing go Bank > Exchange > 3rd Party Wallet > Site
When cashing out go Site > 3rd Party Wallet > Exchange > Bank

Always use a 3rd party wallet. Exchanges regularly close accounts if they see that you're using them to transact with gambling sites.

They're probably holding intense meetings as we speak and will have an update soon.
