So bodog now has, once again, instant deposits onto their site via your checking account. Since I used to deposit this method alot before the witch hunt, when they re-added this option I was already set up with them, and instantly was able to deposit through my checking account. Since then I have made about 3 deposits for 20, 20, then 200 and now have a small roll building up once again....the only problem is none of these deposits have withdrawn from my checking account, after over a week period. It usually takes 2-3 days at most, but perhaps things are just slower in the light of things.

Long story short, my main concern is what is going to happen between my bank and the site dealing with these online transactions, and assuming once these deposits clear and I am able to get a check sent from Bodog, I am worried the check will be flagged by my bank, or will they even cash it, or can they report me to somewhere etc... I just have no idea what my bank is going to say, or be able to do. I hate feeling like a criminal for playing online poker, but such is the case. How safe is it to consistently deposit these checks with your bank?

Are the banks able to tell where the checks are from (ie. gambling web site)? Are they now illegal to cash, will I have problems etc...I've only dealt with paper checks once from party poker years ago, and one check cashing place wouldnt even cash it, and my bank teller raised a brow about the check when I brought it in, though it cashed, so I never messed with paper again.....

I guess everyone is probably in the unknown on this perhaps, but just looking for some thoughts-

So I just found out my pending e-checks are expected to clear through my bank on 4/18....These were all made the beginning of the last week in March.

Thats a long time to clear, but we'll see what happens.
