SynBet.com (unrated) is unable to pay players. The admission of insolvency was made by a company representative on TheRXforum, a forum that advertised SynBet as a platinum sponsor. On August 16th, 2011, head moderator "Wilheim" publicly introduced the unheard of sportsbook to forum users. SynBet primarily targeted US bettors, while sister outfit PulseBet focused on the European market. The two sportsbooks were hosted on the same server and shared wagering software as well as customer support numbers.
