I understand that this may be a stupid question...but I would really appreciate some clarification on something. I will give as much background as possible.
I live in NC and I opened a Bodog account last year around April or May. I deposited using "echeck"...my deposit is taken directly out of my checking account. I am a VERY low stakes bettor...May through June of 2006 I deposited $20-$50 at a time on about 3 different occasions. My withdrawals were never more than $300 at a time, totaling ~$1,000 by the end of the year. My wagers were poker, sports betting and horses. In December I was getting a little concerned with all of the news about the new law so I went ahead and withdrew all of my money. This year in April I decided to deposit money again, my account was not closed, it was just at zero...so I deposited using the same method again...an "echeck" coming directly out of my checking account...this was no problem. My question is this...what is the deal? Is what I am doing illegal/questionable for me/my bank or what? I don't think an "e-wallet" is involved...unless I am totally missing something. Anyway, if I could get a clear understanding of MY specific situation it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
