Scott,
I had a similiar problem and was limited in Costa Rica, if you want to ask Jack for my email me can discuss it.
Gamblingfool,
After years of trying different books, I have in the past few years limited myself to books that I know for a fact will pay me when I win and will not have dumbass rules about withdrawing funds. Off the top of my head Carib, Olympic, CRIS are all grade A, but I have not had any problems with any of Jacks sponsers so they all are good. I am sure Beantown jim would recommend Cascade, maybe he can get a referral bonus if you join there.,
