    Crowd sourcing Contest: Sportsbook features for Rating Guide- $100 Prize

    Scoring Update: 6/2
    1. dirtdogg5268: 54 points
    2. Art Vandeleigh: 12 points
    3. the situation: 1 point
    4. dark star: 4 point
    ______



    Prize:
    If you are not a SBR PRO we will mail you $100 gift card of your choice. If you are a pro, you will get points to cash out what you like. $150 sportsbook cash to eligible PROs.

    Objective: Find omissions, outdated info, or mistakes in the SBR Rating Guide Sportsbook Filters.

    Few of many Examples:
    Reverse Run lines for MLB - filter: Did we overlook a book with this bet option? Or, is there a book that offered them last year that no longer does this year?
    Accepts Moneybookers/Skrill - filter: Did we overlook a book that added Skrill? Or, is there a book that offered them last yr that no longer does this year?
    Accepts Russia - filter - Some books recently banned Russians. It's possible we did not take note of all books as of yet.

    Contest Scoring/Rules: For every book you list it is +1 points. You must be the first person to clearly note the update in this thread. All data will be confirmed by SBR in this thread. SBR reserves the right to consolidate posts, as example: You post 32 books that do or do not take players from Denmark in 32 posts. That becomes one list in your first post. 32 points are still added to your score. Feature updates apply to existing books only.


    • Contest will end at midnight (11:59) Monday June 2nd.
    • Scoreboard will be posted at bottom of this post.
    • Non-contest entry posts in this thread will be deleted
    • We may or may not add prizes for close 2nd place efforts.
    • Those interested in assisting SBR in ongoing data mining projects should write to help@sportsbookreview.com after the contest.


    Thanks SBR Forum!

    You don't have idebit as one of your filters. This is a different thing than insta debit .

    You need to add the fact that pinnacle takes idebit and bet365 takes idebit. Add these two options to the full reviews

    I would also add a screen grab of the Asian handicqp layout offered at pinnaclesports.com. Currently, the Asian handicap screen layout is quite popular and easy to use. It also allows you to bet quickly when doing live betting because it changes the odds automatically rather than having to resubmit the bet using other layouts. When the odds don't automatically change, it often causes the bettor to miss out on live betting opportunities as the window is only open for a short period. It also automatically changes odds for pre game bets as well

    The is a $600 daily limit for in store ukash transaction s in Canadian stores that offer ukash.

    I would also add the fee structure that ukash charges for different increments of money

    i would also add a filter for books that offer live betting. Some only offer live betting during commercials. Others offer live betting all the time and some only offer live betting during intermissions and at the end of quarters

    add filter for books that offer free play vs. cash bonus

    Some good suggestions of things to add but... This is gonna be a free C note for whoever wants to do a little data mining. At this rate, 5 books that have or dont have a feature we already list will be enough to take it home! =/

    5dimes offers a streak contest and betdsi does also. Maybe add a filter for books that offer contests as a part of their promos and list what the contests are in their review.

    add filter for books that use mobile betting platforms. I have noticed that some books run smoother and faster when you run a mobile platform on a cell phone instead of their full site ie. 5dimes, bookmaker, bet dsi, pinnacle, William hill. I would hope that all books soon offer mobile betting platforms.

    add filter for books that cater to recreational gamblers vs. book that cater to professional gamblers.

    the bookmaker family of books offers alternative run
    Lines for baseball and hockey. Bookmaker, justbet, betdsi,

    5dimes offer reduced juice which you have listed but, you don't have it listed that it is only available overnight and prior to 8am for events that day with the exception of some high profile matches. They have offered reduced juice on high profile matches up until game time or when there is only one game on. Ie. nba playoff game.

    It sounds like we need another contest for these good suggestions but again, this is finding an error in what we already have listed in terms of the listed features filters atop the rating guide.

    Objective: Find omissions, outdated info, or mistakes in the SBR Rating Guide Sportsbook Filters.

    Bill, you're wrong. It's about making up your own criteria for a free hundo.

    Several books are not showing up for webmoney, Click 2 Pay, Paysafecard, and Ukash with the ewallet filters applied.

    For Webmoney ewallet, only Pinnacle shows.
    Other books that I am sure accept webmoney are:

    -Thr Greek
    - Fonbet
    -Nordicbet
    -Betfair
    -Betcruise
    -William Hill (pretty sure they do)


    For Click 2 Pay, you can add:

    -Betsson
    -William Hill (again pretty sure, but never played there)


    Paysafecard and Ukash add:

    - Victor Chandler
    - Intertops


    Also....

    - Using Pinnacle as an example, in your "Features" filter, you still show them having a Poker room and a racebook.
    - Betliner doesn't have a race book, at least not anymore.
    - Betsson doesn't have a racebook
    - If the Greek still has a loyalty program, I'm not aware of it.
    CORRECTED

    Heres a few more for the hell of it... and Slayer a lot of those countries are not on SBR's list, they only have a select few. Good Luck

    Tipico does not take Spain or Greece that you have listed.

    Intertops does not take France.

    Nordicbet only takes Sweden, Finland and Norway, so you can knock the U.K., Poland, Belgium, Germany, Portugal, Denmark, Greece, Argentina, Spain, Ireland, Brazil, Canada, Italy, Mexico, France, Netherlands, Russia, China, Japan, Australia off the list.

    Stan James does not take Spain, France, Denmark, Belgium, Japan that are listed.

    12Bet does not take France or China which are listed.

    Coral does not take Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Denmark, Spain, France, Greece, Italy, Poland, Mexico, China or Japan which are listed.

    SBGGlobal does not take USA or France as far as new sign ups go.

    TopBet does not take France or China. But surprisingly take Turkey so you can add them to the Turkey list.

    Bet-at-home does not take France, Spain, Greece, Mexico, Belgium or Russia that are listed. Also you have Denmarks flag crossed out yet they remain on denmarks list when denmark is a banned country.

    Betinternet does not take Australia, Belgium, France, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Spain, Greece that are listed.

    Side note on E Horse.They are just an answering service for Bookmaker,DSI & Justbet.Not a racing site at allBest off calling Bookmaker direct

    I had an account with E Horse about 10 years ago & they were great.no need to have them on Directory
