Your explanation is correct, BF's is ****. You do hand over your money as soon as you click OK to close the bet.

the **** stand for 'nonsense' in a different but in a normally exceptable way, what would the spaminator do if your name happened to be Bill Samuel and you wanted to shorten it to initials?.
