JIMMYMAC VS. ODDSMAKER DISPUTE: THE VERDICT

Re: JIMMYMAC VS. ODDSMAKER DISPUTE: THE VERDICT

Shitty decision by the book. Even worse spin put on it by Shrink. Very disappointing indeed!

And this is the opinion of someone whose family has been on the bookmaking side of the business for the past 35 years!

BigOrange

I am surprised to hear you say that since house rules normally trump over everything else when disputes arise..

There is a certain "peace" that I feel within when I believe I have done the right thing...

There are no "committees" making noise in my head, etc...

This sports book has rules. Neither the player nor any of the previous arbitrators bothered to read them.

For if you truly wanted justice to be served, then there is no getting around the fact that oddsmaker had terms and conditions that defined and supported their position....

I found in player of the sportsbook in this case but I can certainly understand your disappointment...

Hopefully, the next time you will respect my judgement and understand there are 3 sides to every story...:cheers

THE SHRINK

Do you think Shrink's decision and statement here was intended to drive traffic? There will be several outraged people posting several threads with 1000+ views over the next week on this.

If he had gotten the player paid, this whole scenario would have been over in an hour and forgotten!

What a bunch of crap...

I have seen nothing mentioned about a promo code, I have seen nothing stating that the offer was non-transferable.

there was no promo code...

no declaration to not forward...

or send...

or pass this fuckin' email along to anyone you know...

all horseshit...

fuck the phone number...

Re: JIMMYMAC VS. ODDSMAKER DISPUTE: THE VERDICT

Shrink: I just haven't seen any form of bonus abuse. He "attempted" to pass along the offer to his dad, but that was turned down by Oddsmaker. There weren't multiple accounts "in play". Where's the abuse? I would be the first to say fuck Jimmy, the scamming thieving piece of shit, if there was proof that he did scam them, but that's just not the case unless there is more evidence that hasn't been shown in these threads.

Re: JIMMYMAC VS. ODDSMAKER DISPUTE: THE VERDICT

Geez, was the 8 grand THAT important? Was it worth 8 thousand dollars to get the reputation of a stiff book?

Whether this book in question was right or wrong, the bottom line remains that they will forever be known as stiffs who don't pay.

Players and player advocated don't give a rats ass about technicalities in bylaws and sneaky wording, they just want their money, its not too much to ask.

sportsbooks dont have rules, they do whatever the hell they want thats the problem.. and apparently there gonna continue to get away with this crap
 
Re: JIMMYMAC VS. ODDSMAKER DISPUTE: THE VERDICT

Shrink - Can you answer what I just asked mo.

How can there be bonus abuse? There was no code and it was sent by Email. It can't be abused.

You'll have to ignore this one because you can't get out of it.

How would either of you feel if you profiled 100 good customers, offered each of them a 500 dollar free play to entice them to join you, but each of them shared their free play with a %2

How would you feel if you profiled 100 good customers, offered each of them a 500 dollar free play to entice them to join you, but each of them shared their free play with a 'friend' without your permission and then each of their "friends" also shared their 500 dollar free play offer with another friend...

Then their friends each tried to circumvent your big book by calling to claim their 500 dollar free plays by dialing all of your different clerks?

If this doesn't fall under the category of bonus abuse then what the hell does?

thats why there should be a code attached to the promo, once the code is used the promo cant be used again...... there was no code here so no abuse... just a guy getting screwed by a book....

I would be fine with it.
If my efforts were to reach the "profiled Players" only, then I just wouldn't allow the tag alongs to use the offer. This is exactly what Oddsmaker did. No reason to go any further than to disallow the offer to friends and family members of the "profiled players" and certainly no reason to steal the money from their accounts!

They can't share the bonus if there is an approval process. Which there obviously is. Your 100 good customers would be on a list entitled to the bonus. Anyone else inquiring about it..."Sorry Mr....you do not qualify for this offer, but how about a 100% match on your first deposit"

No one is harmed, and the person passing on the e-mail provided free advertising for Oddsmaker. The e-mail itself did not give a bonus. Oddsmaker is being beyond unreasonable with this.

weak. no, very weak argument.

like no one has ever shared a good offer with someone else in the history of bonuses.

oddsmaker knows what they are doing and it's called free rolling.

I want Shrink to admit he had nothing to do with the verdict.

"Worked day and night" just to follow the vague rules of the book.

What a load of crap. He wanted the player paid. His decision was rejected by the book.

You might be fine with it until it occurred 10,000 times. At some point, you would need to set am example to deter others from doing it to you or you'd go broke trying to stop it..

the cost would be too high...

I tend to agree with you, Mamon.

but maybe a little, "I want to keep Oddsmaker's advertising money so I won't push them too hard" sprinkled on top.

Agreed. I don't see anything positive for Shrink in making this public. He could have let Jimmy rant and rave without rebuttal but he explained his decision in detail. I wouldn't want to be in that position, even if I would have come to a different conclusion.:cheers

I'm a good guy ...just got my horsie up since you claimed to work so hard on this. I guess any work seems hard to you now.

Calling someone who didn't know any better and claiming authorization. Perhaps.

I'm sure some CS rep does not have the authority to give out bonuses. Who cares what the operator knew. They punch his info into the system Bonus/No Bonus?Call manager....whatever.

This was the easiest decision that I've ever seen.

All that needed to be said is it's impossible to bonus abuse on this offer. I side with the player.

Re: JIMMYMAC VS. ODDSMAKER DISPUTE: THE VERDICT

:finger004

sorry not true...


Other than yourself and a few EOG employees, no one thinks this is a good decision.

if it was a good decision, wouldnt' at least a few people here think it was good? Wouldn't this be split 50/50 down the middle? No one thinks this is legit. In fact, the EOG employees don't count because they have conflict of interest, so besides you, no one thinks this is the right decision.

its really hard to justify not paying off a bet. The most important thing in gambling is to pay. Books who aren't going to pay, even if they think they are in the right, are hurting the industry. They are hurting YOUR industry. The industry of offshore books is getting this reputation of not paying if they don't feel like it. Whether that's true or not is not as relevant as reputation.

The thing that most people will take out of this is that you really can't be sure if a book is going to pay the winners or not. Who's to say that next time they won't find another 'rule' to not have to pay?

You gotta pay, even if you think you are in the right, because in the long run, you have to find a way to restore a damaged reputation.

Time to rethink this and pay off Jimmy. Pay him his money and 86 him from ever playing there again and at the same time, find a way to not have little hidden 'rules' that might put the book in a bad position like this in the future.

Offshore books need to find a way to pay, no matter what.
