Lines are crap on baseball, but BOY do they payout quickly - less than 2 minutes for me.

right on the money taco

One of most repected books worlwide though

95% of books have bad baseball lines so really not a concern anymore.

I thought they are rated B- on SBR ?

Having good lines is a concern to serious gamblers.

This book was recently purchased by SOS. They had their share of problems both legal and web site related. I will be in Antigua soon and I'll see if I can get into see the SOS camp. They are good people.

If you do not play at Carib you really have no clue about the offshore world

Is this percentage from detailed statistical analysis or are you just picking random numbers from out of your ass?

Carib have 20c ML odds - those are bad lines. Looking at the odds on SBR Odds - aside from Matchbook, 8 out of 9 books have 10c or better lines. Forgive me if my maths is rusty, but I don't think that's anywhere near 5%.

whatever jj gets from having a lot of posts obviously outweighs the minus of looking foolish so much

Jj, You Dont Know How To Rate Books
Carib Is A+

**aceking** · 09-25-05, 03:57 PM

And their "bonus" is non-withdrawable ,kind of misleading.

**jjgold** · 09-25-05, 05:12 PM

A lot of rookies in industry here

The majority of guys here would rather get stiffed than play at a good book.

It is hard sometimes posting with guys with no clue about industry but I do it to teach and educate.

Carib might be an A+

**Trouble Maker** · 09-25-05, 05:22 PM

this off topic because I have not had any experience with carib but in my book if you dont have reduced juice you aint A+. Two class act books battling for an A+, to me the deciding factor/seperator is reduced juice.

**jjgold** · 09-25-05, 05:25 PM

Most books do not have reduced juice e so not a fator in ratings

Some that have reduced juices are C books

**LVHerbie** · 09-25-05, 07:58 PM

personally disagree with reduced juice as being a consideration in ratings... Ratings should be based on such things as reliability, honesting in policies, customer service, and most important, finicial stability (ie ability to pay up).. if I was looking for a new book I would look at all these things first and then once I had a smaller list I'm going to use bonuses/reduced juice to decide between the few that remain...
