I decided to give bovada a try and deposited 20 dollars with a my visa. I ran it up to 120 in a couple days just messing around and requested a cashout by check on 2/17. I still have not received the check yet. My question is what to tell my credit union if they question me on why i have this check from another country. i just dont want to get questioned and not know what to say.

^ Just fill out the deposit slip and hand them the check, nothing more than that is needed if your worried. I don't spark conversations with the tellers when I deposit money just the typical "Hello, I want to deposit this check in my account".

the fee would be because of a foreign check, not b/c of the bank where you take it. Yes, there will be a slight difference in fee amount, but any bank that has to send a check through foreign collections is going to charge you a significant amount. My credit union will not even accept foreign checks (luckily, I have never received one that is 100% foreign).

so it's all based on luck of the draw? the check i just deposited was from a Southeast Asian location

Please refrain from posting actual locations of where the check came from. Use words such as north of the us ,far east, etc. posting actual locations does nothing but potentially harm the players because it can compromise the payment processors. Please edit your above post or maybe a moderator can do so.

Is it humanly possible to get 20-30k off Bovada/month? It looks like wires would be the only way, but they seem to be unavailable or failing for most people. Doesn't this rule Bovada out as an option for US mid-high pros? If so, why do mid-high games continue to run all the time? My brain is not processing this.

Aren't the checks just for 3k max each though? That's 10k/month max if everything goes right (checks arrive on time, no bounces). Still nowhere near 20-30k.

Many high stakes players prob moved out of the country, which means you can get payouts in a day to Moneybookers...others will still have a ton of money on the site if cashing out is difficult. Others just know the reward/risk is high enough in their minds to continue playing.

I'm lookin to make my first payout. They want credit card verification and a copy of my ID. Is this normal? Is it safe? Don't like the idea of faxing this info. What's the best way to go. Check, transfer? THX

On the risk/reward... do you mean they hope that they will make a successful wire? Or that they hope better withdrawal methods will eventually become available?
