My check from BoDog

Sep 30, 2008 5:09 am Report Abuse

Long, long ago.
On a poker site far, far away.

RailBirds use to host freerolls on BoDog. In one in particular, there was a mess-up with getting the password out to members, so the points did not count.....but the money sure did.

I won that freeroll and played off and on with the $30 until I started hearing some bad things about the site. So, I thought "What the heck!" and withdrew most of the money I had on there. I left myself $6 and I have since doubled that!

Here is a scan of the check I received. I blocked out some of the info to save the innocent (thanks for your help with this, Astrogini)

It's a little blurry, so I'll transcribe the funny line below the picture.
TWEET!



"To avoid any unnecessary inconvienience when depositing or cashing this check, if asked, simply explain that this is a payment from a large online service provider and that the funds were sent to you at your request."

How funny is that? I will be trying to deposit it tomorrow....I'll let you know if it bounces! Hahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Railbirds are sw-TWEEET!

RAWDAWG33 Sep 30, 2008 5:16 am
I have two checks in waiting from them totally almost 3000.00 bucks Ill be watching you blog lol
Kasino_86 Sep 30, 2008 5:18 am
LOL... hope it doesnt bounce and hope the bank doesnt ask to many questions. thats hilarious.
Katchagirl Sep 30, 2008 5:20 am
That is definitely an interesting comment....???

I'm interested to see what happens! I hope it does go through!!! *FINGERS CROSSED*
Niggz Sep 30, 2008 5:31 am
God thats fricken sweet. As if the site is that much of a joke. They gave you the check they best give you the amount that it says on it. And RAWDOG as if Bodog owes you $3000, how the hell did you win all that moula????
SOSOBRA Sep 30, 2008 7:59 am
yea man, congrats.... still waiting for mine, goin on 90 days almost.... let us know how high it bounces, i'll keep my eyes up to the sky, let you know if i see it...
tiltaholic Sep 30, 2008 9:11 am

A Canadian Bank and yet Candians aren't allowed to play on the site, lol.

Are people having problems cashing out on Bodog? If so.. I guess I don't feel so bad for not being able to play on it.

apfjr Sep 30, 2008 9:16 am
I really hope you get your money pal. It's funny they would give you that statement.
Hickbilly9 Sep 30, 2008 9:53 am
If your bank doesn't cash or let u deposit it.Go to a check cashing store.No guarentees they will anymore.They are turning some people away with checks from online sites.Don't tell the bank it's from an online poker room....lol.Good luck and let us know how it goes.
Hickbilly9 Sep 30, 2008 9:59 am
O yeah SOSOBRA, it took a friend of mine 78 days to get his.I heard the best way from BD is western uniom or money gram.I heard it just takes two or three days that way but I think u pay a small fee.Don't know....Might be worth it though.

Oh, crap. Fluffy, how did they get my real name???!!!??
Hehehe
SOSOBRA Sep 30, 2008 8:21 pm

I think you have to have depositred by Western Union, have it pre-arranged or something... was reason why I didnt, cant remember what it was...

P>S> dont be spending that money until the check actually CLEARS! or you gonna get nailed w fee's etc. plus having to pay it back to the bank... gl

RAWDAWG33 Oct 1, 2008 12:40 am
to Niggz,

SHERRY524 Oct 17, 2008 10:23 pm
Any news on this Marty?
Titleman Nov 3, 2008 8:50 pm
Heard from a guy on a different forum who plays there regularly and cashes out every week or so and other than the wait has never had a check bounce. The problem usually is with the check processor and not the poker site. Any differing experiences would be appreciated by me. thanks to all concerned
justchuck69 Nov 3, 2008 9:04 pm
