Easter weekend always dangles more than enough carrots before hungry sports bettors -- MLB baseball, NBA playoffs, NHL playoffs, this "little" sport called soccer, boxing, and now even Mixed Martial Arts.

However, Easter weekend is a huge boon for sports books and local bookies...because bettors that have children or a heavy "spiritual" investment that includes church at least once a week, are unable to handicap games as normal due to family and religious obligations.

As if the Easter bunny dumped a giant rabbit turd into my Easter basket, my favorite online sportsbook has suspended my account for possible fraud...even though my last dozen payments are all connected with legitimate Visa debit (gift) cards purchased at REAL stores with REAL money.

Has anyone else experienced repeated problems depositing funds online with credit/debit/gift cards on the weekend...or have I really reached Scarface status in the world of online sports betting?
