    GTBets.ag - Big Test
    Hey folks - longtime member but mostly just an observer/lurker (member since 2017). I've gleaned a lot of good info from this forum regarding good/bad books. I'm in an interesting situation and thought it might be helpful to share.

    I play with a few different books, but GTBets.ag has been my primary, despite the fact that they aren't one of the behemoth shops. Have never had a problem with them - super friendly, responsive, and generous with reload bonuses and perks. I'm a casual bettor who has lost more than I've won over time - I'm keeping it real with you all. With all of that positive stuff said, it's no secret - a books true colors and worth show when we/the customer are winning and cashing out.

    Periodically I'll go on a hot streak and I've been in the middle of an epic one. My account currently sits well into the six figures and I've been withdrawing the last couple of weeks. So far, they've been very honorable and fair - increasing my withdrawal limit to $20K/week (website states max of $5K, which I get is low to begin with) and they have made a couple max payouts in a row. I'd of course like to withdraw more, but I'm good with the $20K limit as long as they continue to honor my withdrawals and timely. In the past, they've also paid me timely - have to give them props and full credit - but I've never had the opportunity to cash out in this magnitude.

    Why am I posting? I want to provide a real-life current data point for users of this forum who might be looking for a new sportsbook - one that isn't going to show up in most trendy Top 10 Sportsbook lists, but generally has had a solid reputation. I have heard that they aren't always accepting new customers or from certain regions/states, but putting that aside, if there's any interest, I'm happy to update this thread and let you all know how it's going. I've been a huge fan of GTBets to this point and I have recommended them when asked - I am of course hoping that my faith hasn't been misplaced. As the title of this thread says - Big Test. Frankly, IMO, the ultimate test of a books word and worth.

      Hmmm, my computer says their website isn't secure.

        Nice work Marky, you earned it. With that much cash you should sponsor a contest at SBR and make some friends doing it.

          Just tried to sign up, said they are not taking new customers and when I asked if that was temporary they said they are unable to give me that information at the moment as it's unclear for how long the procedure will exactly continue.

            I have long since closed my GTBets account, but, unless they have changed their policy, they will short change your BTC withdrawal by ~3%, calling it a "processor fee." However, if you contact Customer Service and provide proof of it, they will credit it back to your account. At least, they did it at least twice for me when I asked.

              Sounds like they are in trouble.

                My two cents on GT:

                1. Bonuses are outstanding AND with a very small rollover rate. I’ve been a customer for 15 years and I’m at a level that gets 50% bonuses on all deposits (55% on bitcoin, but never have done bitcoin). My rollover rate is a very small 6x and that is incredible compared to the 20-100x rates at other places. Around 10 times a year they will offer 100%, usually around Holidays or big events and start of regular seasons.

                2. I’m a small player, so the $5k limit on withdrawals is fine for me. I did run it up to $60k and took out 6 periodic $5k withdrawals over 6 weeks. Processing of withdrawals has improved significantly in the last year or two, going for up to 7-10 days to a consistent 2 days. This is on a bank wire ($40 fee). I’ve heard Bitcoin is almost instantaneous, but don’t do BC.

                3. I play very conservative on Sports wagers, normally $20-$100. At that rate it would take awhile to clear the rollover requirement, but I play a lot in the Casino. That’s where I clear the rollover very quickly. I may only play $2-3 per spin, but will regularly play for 3-9 hours at a time. Over the years, I’ve won over $10k on one spin/bonus round 25 times. Then I might goose the bet up to $25-50 a spin? Why!? One, the rollover is satisfied almost immediately, and two, you also earn rewards points. Just a couple of days ago I earned 225,000 rewards points, that’s $225 of real money that can be transferred to your cash account. Have a bad night, no problem, you get 7% back on any daily net casino loss. Most importantly, I find most of their games more than fair. I would recommend to play only games that are offered by BetSoft, they are superior graphically and more important they have a ROI of around 95% compared to the others, which are 93% or lower, or ROI isn’t even listed.

                4. The Sportsbook is fine if you are just a sides/totals or live bettor. There weakness is the limited supply of prop bests, and parlaying of certain bets that aren’t even correlated. For instance, you can’t take a run line and the total in the same game ( you can’t take only take the ML). You can’t take two different players props from the same game in the same parlay, even though there’s no correlation. Juice is 9%, a small discount from the normal -110 on those kind of bets. If you’re a big prop player and use the exotics seen like on ESPN Bet or similar, look elsewhere!

                This is the only book I play at. At one time I was at The Greek, 5 Dimes, Bookmaker, Pinnacle, WSEX, you name it, but over time GT has done me just fine and I have nothing but good things to say based on my betting preferences. Bonuses are the best available, they pay, games are fair and customer service (rarely needed) is outstanding. Those attributes offset the lack of options above sides/totals.
