Geez, only 1 person this week got all 14 on the Pro's Pick Pool... he won $404,454. Geez, thats a nice prize on a 5 dollar bet! It was a tough week... who would have put Miami, Cincinati, and Arizonia on one card? That guy deserves the money, those were tough picks!!

Well in a nutshell Neteller is like the middle-man, you transfer money to Neteller from your bank account and then transfer money again from Neteller to the sportsbook of your choice. The withdrawal process is simply the opposite
You have different methods to deposit your money into Neteller, if you want the money there instantly be prepared to pay a fee of 8.9%, if you don't mind waiting (about 3-5 business days) the transfer is free and finally you can deposit via credit card (i haven't looked at this option simply because i want to control myself LOL)
Most online books have Neteller deposit buttons and deposits into the books are as easy as clicking that button. Some have the Instacash option where the money will be sent from Neteller into your book right away and the book will take care of the fee. If not then it's a small fee typically < 5% I think
Withdrawal also doesn't take long to complete, you can expect money in your chequing account in a few business days from the time that you send your $$$ from the book to Neteller and again from Neteller to your bank
I find this to be the best and most cost-conscious method. There are other ways such as Western Union, FedEx, UPS, bank wire etc but those take longer and you have to pay more fees
Hope it helps
P.S. I'd recommend you opening your account in $US that saves exchange rates back and forth_______________

Welcome to the world of sports handicapping airblade, not meaning to insult your intelligence in anyway but if you truly believe that the dude won that grand prize on $5 ticket then well let's just say that I could be in Hawaii or the Cayman Islands now
It's a dog-eat-dog world out there my friend, one of my buddy spent $5K on a bunch of combinations and still came up 1 short with the Denver Broncos stinking up a joint on MNF, 13/14 won you nothing but heartache and headaches
Yep you read it right, 5 freaken grands and nothing to show for it. He did win it last week though so that money was simply re-invested
Not to say that the winner spent more than $5 which is possible but highly unlikely. Who could pick Arz, Jak, Cincy, Detroit to win straight-up in his/her right mind ?
welcome aboard fellas, the ride only just begins, i fully expect the pot to reach 1 million by Xmas if not earlier
Peace bro_______________

Meh, oh well.
