    What does Bet-Islands compare to?
    Would it be like a Bovada, 5Dimes or legends closing? Seems like a lot of people had $ on there...

            I agree it is just like Bet Phoenix. Maybe SBR can make it a good holiday by getting them a buyout.

                It's like BetPhoenix. They weren't as big as Bovada or 5dimes, that's for sure.

                              Agree, only difference for me I got my money out of betphoenix in time. This time not so lucky I guess.

                                This book wasnt even 1/20 of the size of bodog or 5dimes.


                                Sure this book had a big forum following, but they had virtually no other post up action. Postup money to 5dimes and bodog is MAYBE 5% from people who post on forums.

                                  It compares to a dirty slut who while you fukked, felt so good, then she took your wallet when she left

                                    Compares to Hollywood,Wsex,Cascade,Betfirstclass,Bet phoenix,oddsmaker in that players all get fuckked come the end.

                                    However the resemblance to Bet911 seems to be the closest fit in that they were both heavily promoted by SBR and both had a frontman here on SBR to tell the masses how fast they pay,a guy named Carl was the frontman for bet911.

                                      Sounds about right. I've always wondered how many employees books like 5Dimes have. I even started a thread about it but I didn't get any responses. http://forum.sbrforum.com/players-ta...book-have.html How many employees does or did BetIslands have? The only person I ever dealt with was Ryan and he seemed like a pretty good guy to be honest with you.
