JIMMYMAC VS. ODDSMAKER DISPUTE: THE VERDICT

Re: JIMMYMAC VS. ODDSMAKER DISPUTE: THE VERDICT

First of all, no one is debating that Oddsmaker has made their mistakes. Oddsmaker is not under the same ownership that it always has been. They don't have the same management today as they did when several crooked decisions were made.

Here are some facts:

  1. Other people have received the same bonus, won, and been paid.
  2. Their records show that Not One other person sent that email on to anyone else who tied to collect a bonus.
  3. Their records show that Not a single person other than jimmy/father called any number but the one given.

You discount the call so easily, but very simple proof of what took place. Not ONE other person called a number other than the one given. Not a soul.

Why do you think Mr Jimmy was singled out? Perhaps because he lied, made threats, and tried to cheat their system. Oddsmaker has paid out much more money than this, off of this very same bonus, and had no issue. Oddsmaker, under this ownership, has sided with the player and admitted their own errors in disputes.

This is a simple case of a player trying to take advantage of an offer and per oddsmakers rules, that is not allowed.

None of what you just said PROVES he was trying to abuse a bonus.

Furthermore, this is the first I have heard that they are no longer under the same ownership. I am calling BS, not on you, but on them if that is what they are claiming.

Jimmy got screwed.

No way a dime player cares about being a bonus whore for 500 bucks. You got to have a decent bankroll to be betting dimes.

Also, it makes no sense to risk not being paid what you won (3k) to try to bonus whore for 500 more.
 
Re: JIMMYMAC VS. ODDSMAKER DISPUTE: THE VERDICT

no...that is not what I am saying.....obviously THE SHRINK thought ODDSMAKER was right.....

but either way it's a no win IMO...no matter how he rules someone disagrees. It's really not a job I would want to have....I know books make bad calls, but on these sites...you guys would side with the players if he took an AK47 in and shot up the place.

i have no inside knowledge of the case....just seems like a job I wouldn't want.

If some fucking scamming bonus abusing scumbag was revealed to the site, and it was ruled that he wasn't getting paid, you would see three times the people in here calling that player a piece of shit.

In fact I think a lot of people are staying out of this thread not wanting to go against Shrink.

The evidence against jimmy is weak and based on some assumption. Multiple accounts were not opened. Multiple bonuses were not paid. Sharing an unsolicited e-mail is certainly not grounds for keeping $8400 in winnings.

And lets remember, Jimmy did not ask Oddsmaker to give him a free $500. They were trying to suck him in. Too fucking bad it didn't work out this time.

Mofo,

please stop with the you can meet right now stuff. Trust me you dont want to meet me in person. this is not about you and me anyway.

Your spinning things cuz u work for EOG. If you wanted to get my side of the story you would have gotten my number from ken and called me. i dont look at my private messages. did not even know i had them on these sites.

You are taking the side of your boss and i appreciate that but everyone here knows your opinion in biased and your trying to save face.

think of all the good press eog and oddsmaker would have gotten if the right thing was done here.

You are the one who made the reference to meet. You. I can now see what your problem is, you have no accountability. I laugh at the notion of you not being someone I want to meet. I laugh even more at the fact that you talk tough to oddsmaker, and now me, and its always someone elses fault.

A pattern, of sorts. Stay calm. I don't want to have to sleep with one eye open.

:thumbsup

Re: JIMMYMAC VS. ODDSMAKER DISPUTE: THE VERDICT

You have not offered ANY PROOF he was trying to rob them. I'm still waiting.

Was he trying to abuse their bonus system? Maybe, maybe not. The burden of proof is on Oddsmaker.

As far as the moral character of the parties is concerned, Oddsmaker loses. As you know they have stolen many times in the past. From other players, from senior citizens. They don't discriminate.

It doesn't say anywhere in their rules and regulations that oddsmaker has to prove they were being robbed, in order not to honor their vip bonus program...

It simple says the following:

Professional players or players considered to be abusing the bonus system by any means may have bonuses revoked and be subject to further sanctions, at the discretion of OddsMaker.com management.

Have a great night,

THE SHRINK

Heading out now (but will definitely check back on this thread later)..

Regardless of who's right and who's wrong..

I hate to say it, because I don't agree with EOG's position on this issue, but the next time another issue similar in degree of polarity arises (that is, there seems to be a clear cut right side and wrong side), you, mofome, and shrink need to get your game straight.

That means Ken plays "bad cop" and the head mod plays "good cop". But you guys fucked up and instead played bad cop and bad cop. Two bad cops pisses people off. There has to be a good cop, else you get the masses to revolting against you!

I don't need to get a 'game' straight, this is no game to me. I can do nothing more than judge the situation based upon the facts that I am presented with. Everyone wants to root for the little guy, but sometimes the little guy is in the wrong.

How naive.


Mo, seriously.

YOU calling someone naive in this industry....

I wasn't directing the above statement towards YOU specifically.

EOG paychecks come from advertising dollars.

the whole spin job about phone numbers called and telling the book to close his account...it holds no water. Haven't YOU gotten pissed off at a bank or other company and told them "JUST CLOSE MY ACCOUNT!!" ??

it's a way of saying 'you guys are wasting my time, yanking my chain, aren't worth doing business with...or are less than honest....'

JC is bringing up some very good points, and it's in EOG's best interest to listen and/or discuss these issues with him.

Ken? he's probably out this industry soon and all he cares about is the money.

Me of all people. You've underestimated me a few times in the past. I have no issue with you, but I don't put any paycheck above the truth. My first eog paycheck, in fact, went to a stiffed player. I'm sure that you are aware.
 
Re: JIMMYMAC VS. ODDSMAKER DISPUTE: THE VERDICT

He lied about having consent to send the email on. Proof. The evidence is not on his side.

Why would you need consent to share unsolicited junk mail with someone. If Oddsmaker did not want to give a generous bonus to the next person then they certainly are within their rights not too. The e-mail itself did not guarantee a bonus, there was still a sign up and approval process. The new account was deemed to not qualify for a $500 free play. Life goes on.

Really grasping at straws here.

Re: JIMMYMAC VS. ODDSMAKER DISPUTE: THE VERDICT

Players free roll on books using bonus abuse or charge backs.

Books free roll on players using terms and condition littered with gray areas. The gray areas are only used to the books advantage.

A simple "you are not entitled to this bonus" ends the whole Jimmy's dad thing. You can not abuse a bonus that was never given to you.

Jimmy only received his bonus. He won using his bonus. He gained no advantage from the father situation. If he had lost the free play and later won 8400 on money he deposited, what then. Still no pay?

The reason I ever came to EOG in April of last year, was to complain about Oddsmaker. I had received a similar offer to Jimmy's, a free $200. Mixed in with my initial bets, was a $20 teaser. Realizing I had violated the terms, I e-mailed them and asked for permission to continue the promotion by giving up the teaser bet. I wanted clarification that I would still be able to continue without jeopordizing future winnings.

I NEVER HEARD BACK FROM THEM, despite 6 e-mails(I wanted it in writing that I could continue).

Came here to bitch as Shrink was on the back of their Ad, and ended up sticking around.

I would never recommend Oddsmaker to anyone.


What shitty customer service.. THIS BOOK WILL NEVER SEE A PENNY FROM ME

Re: JIMMYMAC VS. ODDSMAKER DISPUTE: THE VERDICT

why wouldnt i pass on the number of tony stewart? cuz i didnt analyze it like you guys are doing right now.

I was on the phone half listening to my dad and half watching the games on sportsline. My dad was asking me what i was doing. I told him bout the deal i got, he started asking questions about the company and to get him off the phone i said ill forward you the email i got.

He then opened an account and called the number on the website.

Why is this so hard for you guys to get???? you think there was some elaborate plan in place. believe me if i had a plan in place to scam a book for bonus money it would be a lot more extensive. this is crazy. spinning everything to justify a bad decision.

the strongest point made all day was the first email i received had rules on it and nowhere did it mention bonus abuse. see below one more time.




No one claimed that the email contained such language.

Re: JIMMYMAC VS. ODDSMAKER DISPUTE: THE VERDICT

Shrink, just disappear from this thread already. you keep burying yourself.

For shit sakes, what you just typed above is idiotic.

So, if Jimmy had admitted to abusing the bonus and not bad mouth(an already shit book) he would have been paid.

So, what your saying is, he did nothing wrong other than calling out a shit book and now they are keeping his money due to that?

Go out and take a few more pictures of your sons tail out at the pool and leave this cluster fuck to you main man Mo.....he's the sharpest on the board and proves it time and time again.
Jimmy,

You also seem like a nice guy..

But, you know good and well that you are a very experienced player who has been involved in this industry longer than almost anyone else who has been posting in this thread...

You also know alot about bonuses.

And furthermore, I am certain you also knew that this particular bonus was not meant for your father, your wife, any of your friends, and not your dog...

You were around for the BetonSports fiasco and you come across as someone who is quite intelligent on the telephone and on the forums...

All that Oddsmaker wanted you to do once you were "caught" abusing their bonus by sending it to your Father was to admit it to them, but you refused to do that at first...

Oddsmaker even assured you they would still honor paying your money out to you..

But instead, you decided to threaten them and post horrible things all over the forums about them thinking this was the best way to go about getting your money...

I suspect if you had to do it over again, you would not have behaved in this fashion...

I suspect had you handled yourself without getting all hot headed and crazy, we would not ever have had this discussion...

My 2 cents,

He made his money off losing Gamblers not being a player advocate. Live and learn and try Bookmaker, 5 dimes, and Matchbook and don't sign up in an eog Link.

Oddsmaker is aware people don't want to play there, hence the free money e-mails, and glossy magazines. Any book in the industry can use the broad reaching rules to deem you an "abuser" or "professional".

It's not that we don't like Oddsmakers rules(all shops have them), it's the way they choose to use them.

I spoke with Anthony today myself. He was leaving, perhaps for the day, perhaps for something to eat. I know that he has spent considerable time on this, is not gutless, and that it's unfortunate that everyone wants to bash the book and excuse the players actions that were certainly not on the up and up.
