Smaller amount checks, nothing big, they sent me double checks. I currently have zero in the account currently and would not be too upset if I never bet at this book again (Bish SBR Review).

First off I know ethically I should inform them and only cash the one check that I withdrew. However, what could and would happen if I cashed both checks? Looking for reason I should not cash it besides ethical since clearly my ethics are challeged that I'm even thinking about depositing both checks.

Also of note, both checks came from two different states in the US, this place must have two different payment centers at least in the US. I have already cashed the first check and it cleared this one came a couple days later and is from a US Bank.

if they sent you two checks cash them why are you thinking? books send gifts, free contests, bonus stuff whatever. Just cash them and be happy.

Its like the supermarket giving you change for a 20 when you paid with a ten , keep your mouth shut and exit the building ( unless its a hottie you want to bang ...)

I imagine its possible one of the checks will bounce, if so I guess I could tell the sportsbook I tried to cash the bounced one first in order to get those fees back from the sportsbook.

Sick sick stuff. ...

If it will make you feel better you can sign one over to me. I normally wouldn't do this but you seem like a nice guy.

Gyno, it is not that your "ethics are challeged". You are ethically challenged and as such truly deserve a donation from all those suckers.

did you kept on calling them to ask where your check was?? mayb they sent out 2nd check and cancelled the first one. That's what happened to me at the bodog. 1st check came in and made a deposit.... later on I found out that check could not be cleared and I received the 2nd check....

Cash them both and if they contact you then laugh at them and dare them to sue you in a US court; remind them of the fate of certain offshore books' employees that recently set foot in the US.

Funny how the ethics are like a revolving door @ the Rx with these types of threads.

One guy posts a few months ago how he owed a book $500 or something because he played it, lost, then cancelled his bank account. There were about 3 pages of yelling at him.

Now this response.

if you deposit both of them, it will take some time for your bank to get the money from the bank the checks were written from...

it could be a month or two down the road, IF they catch the mistake they will get their money back...

the only way around this would be to find a check cashing place to cash the checks for you, even then the chech cashing place will hunt you down if one of those checks comes back a month or two from now.

call the book, tell them the deal... maybe you'll be rewarded for your honesty.
