I didn't agree to this rediculous proposition but they stole my money anyway and never sent me a dime. How can crooks like Wade Roberts and PyramidSportsbook still be in business.

I would have agreed to it...

You had NO recourse.

Pokerking, perhaps I am missing something here. Why on earth would a sportsbook do such a thing? What was their justification?

[Mort]

oh, by the way, I took a look at their domain registration and it shows a contact address at an AOL email address.

Upon seeing this, my first thought was is this a sportsbook run out of someone's house?

Pokerking, there are two pyramids. please post the URL or I will change the topic of the thread. You need to clarify which one please.

Their justification for stealing my money was that I was too good for them. Their url is:
www.pyramidsportsbook.com.

Nice-looking site.

I really dig the "Internet Gaming Association" seal. Is IGA part of the UN? If so, maybe Koffi Annan could help out here . . .

Otherwise you look to be SOL, I am sorry to say.

[pokerking]

I posted a complaint to the Internet Gaming Association in August and they replied to me saying they would investigate the matter. I haven't heard from them since.

These guys have been at it for quite some time
with always the same M.O. They change their
names a lot their too and. Wade will be someone else the next time you call. They pulled the
exact same crap on me a year or so ago. If you
do a search on Pyramid, Grafix Softech or TNT
you'll find a lot. The bottom line is you will
never be paid any winnings and will never be
paid any bonuses. They freeroll you on your deposit. If you lose, fine. If not, you have
big problems. Who should be really pissed
is pyramidcasino.com who are the good guys
that these asswipes decided to victimize with
the name they use. I have to admit that I fell
for it. I heard the good feedback on Pyramid
and just typed pyramidsportsbook.com thinking
it was the most logical choice for them to have their site at. Big mistake and I paid for it.

Bottom line:
pyramidcasino.com = good, legitimate book
pyramidsportsbook.com or pyramidcasino.net =
dickless, thieving piece of shit jackoffs
