Saturn Sports is a slimy operation- NO PAY!

PO69 · Oct 29, 2003

Well first of all, before all of you say that I should have known better, well realize that this was only a forum contest. But it still pisses me off that they act this way after one forum wins the competition. HEre are the details:

It was a 4 week forum challenge between OGD and www.Crazypicks.com. We won the forum contest and now they wont honor the prizes!! Not much money we are talking about here, but it is the principle where this book is concerned.

They are already known as a NO PAY operation, but another poster AK swears that they are the best!! Of course that guy doest know his head from his ass, but we will take his "word" here. Hell the only people getting from this book are AK himself from his agent fees!

Well now the book says they will not pay us our winnings. Now this is after some people on OGD and crazypicks deposited money into this book!

Not really looking for help here, but just want to warn other players NOT to post up at this scumbag book!

I am just glad that i never sent any money to them!!!

UPDATE< here is the email that they sent us regarding the contest! ANd PLEASE NOTE that this email was ONLY SENT AFTER the contest was over!!!!!!!!!

"Guys--I am sorry to inform you we are not offering the free $100 accounts to
the winners of the handicapping contest due to a problem/disagreement we had
with OGD. We are sorry.

However, as winners of the contest, we do want to offer you something. You
will see a post on Crazypicks called "Crazy Picks + Saturn Sports" contest
describing some bonuses we offer to Crazy Picks. We will give you these same
deposit bonuses AND tack on an additional 5% for any deposit bonus you would
like.

If this is something you would like to take advantage of, please feel free to
call us at 1-866-608-5700 and we will get you set up for that. Thanks. "

The asshole even has the nerve to say thanks at the end!

Saturn Sports? Never heard of them until I got a no pay complaint a week ago. has any one else heard of them??

KeithRichard · Oct 29, 2003

Sounds like of those sportsbooks that take deposits only.

PO69 · Oct 29, 2003

I really doubt that even if they paid us the contest winnings from which THEY WERE A SPONSOR that we would not have received a penny after completing the rollover

I would email oldfriend,He seems like a good guy and can find a bailout book for you guys.

Chadster · Oct 29, 2003

what a surprise

PO69 · Oct 29, 2003

I actually made this post because some of the other players on our team were COUNTING on this money to finance their college education(IVAN!!!)

PO69 · Oct 29, 2003

Well here is the SATURN SPORTS slogan!!!!

""SATURN SPORTS, A DIFFERENT KIND OF SPORTSBOOK, A DIFFERENT KIND OF CONTEST SPONSOR! We are one of a kind!!!"

i feel for everyone that got stiffed but one person and i'm sure everyone can guess who that one person is too.

PatrickMcIrish · Oct 29, 2003

Ivan's place versus OGD and the advertiser didn't pay off anyway? Ouch. Sounds like a tough situation for everyone involved in this operation. Hope no one got hurt, never funny when a book stiffs people.

On a lighter note I hope Crazypicks spotted them a few wins to make it even.

crazyivan24 · Oct 29, 2003

Well at CRAZYPICKS - I wasn't the one who grabbed them it was a poster named AK.

We have contests with good solid books such as BlueMarlinSports (sponsoring NFL and NHL Contests)...and various others.

By the way Patrick - Nice CALL on NBA tonight!

bigboydan · Oct 29, 2003

pat ODG did spot them alot of wins UB was on the team

crazyivan24 · Oct 29, 2003

Actually it was AK that went 0-5 (for 2 consecutive weeks)

buzz, there a new book that popped up a few weeks ago but that was the first time i have ever heard of them.

PatrickMcIrish · Oct 29, 2003

Thanks Ivan. Got 1 game to go but nice start so far, something I don't do well usually in hoops.

Dan - that's hilarious. I know there are lot of sharps at those two sites, I guess Ivan's must be a little sharper though. Good job to all parties involved even if they didn't get paid yet.

Ivan--Jimmy just contacted me and told me to look at OGD. I looked at OGD
from my house, and found out that Garrett has decided to bash us. I do not
really care that much, but let's get a few things straight.

It is not our fault you guys do not look at OGD on a daily basis. If you
had, you would have seen a post on Oct. 23rd from Uncle B called "Ivan/OGD
Contest--Saturn Sports AWOL". It can be found on page 7 of the OGD as I send
this e-mail to you. It says there the contest is OVER and we are not
sponsering it.

Then, on Oct. 24th, AK posted a thread called "Saturn Sports Contest" where
he says the contest is over. That can be found on page 6 of the OGD as I do
this e-mail.

So, back last week, LONG BEFORE the final picks were in, OGD decided we were
no longer going to sponsor this contest. WE had nothing to do with it--it
was THEIR decision. And it was done LONG BEFORE the contest was over.

Despite this, I STILL might have gone ahead and given the accounts anyway. I
spoke with Jimmy tonight, and he told me you had asked about it and asked if
we should consider it. I told him to get word to you I would contact you
tomorrow after I thought about it.

But, now that Garrett (who apparently has a small man's complex) has gone
ahead and bashed me and called me a "scumbag operation", there is NO WAY IN
HELL I am going to give those accounts out now. And, you have Garrett to
thank for making the final decision for me. If he had kept his mouth shut,
maybe I would have given them to you. NO CHANCE IN HELL NOW.

Thanks.

Matt

You welcome guys! $100 isnt that much anyway. This was worth it, it created some drama on the site tonight which this site has needed this week!!

By the way there is a $5000 Hockey contest at crazypicks.com which starts Nov 1st I believe, but this time he didnt use a piss-poor sportsbook as a sponsor. And we all know that they would NOT have credited our accounts the money!

But really sorry guys and you too Ivan. I know that you were going to pay off your college tuition with this $100, but for me, it was worth losing the $100 just to get the name out about this book not paying us
