No capital required up front but they assess your means to create a credit limit. For every winner, there are lots of losers. It's a zero sum game, as in any casino. I wonder how those guys go about collecting regularly off the losers. That where their income must come from. In the bookie trade, we did not take cheques, only cash, for that very reason. It was sad watching a guy putting down a weeks wages on the nose of some loser all the same.
