IMPORTANT: If you cannot access VIPsports,
BetGameDay, WSSBsport, Bet19, FairDealSports, BetonGames or
5 Card Charlie, the following information explains how to
get back online with your particular book.
In an effort to combat the DDoS attacks
and extortion demands, VIP-managed books have blocked out
certain IP addresses, thus minimizing the severity of the
attacks. During this process, however, some “innocent”
IPs are being blocked inadvertently. Fortunately, there is
a solution:
1. Go to http://www.vipschedules.com/myip.asp
and write down the number you see on that page. This is
the IP address of your computer.
2. Then email the sportsbook
with your account ID and your IP address (from step one).
See below for the contact information
for all VIP-managed books.
3. VIP Management will
pass this information upstream to their provider who will
make the necessary adjustments to unblock your IP address.
This will typically require a maximum of 24 hours.
