    I just found this pplace, and it looked promising. I'm disappointed that no one here has anything good to report on them yet. I'll be looking forward to more info.

    There's a reason no one has anything good to say about them.

    No report yet from SBR on these guys also. Maybe they are working on it. I would use caution until we know for sure on this one.

    Do books need to be submitted to them for review? Or do they just decide when to review them?

    Because I notice Betmaker is not even reviewed by SBR - they have been around a while and are part of the Bookmaker umbrella.

    If we need to tell SBR about this one.. how do we go about that?

    It's going to take time for this exchange to build.

    What are we less than 24 hours from football...

    and nothing yet?

    Youd think the kickoff would be a priority as people will find somewhere else to play!

    Very disappointing.

    So what ever happened to this?

    Another hype job?

    Disappointing that no one can actually do this right.

    Or another example us football total points 47/50, if you go high and the result is 51, its obvious the no juice price is the middle of the 2 prices(48.5) instead of them paying you 3.5 times your stake you end up with only 1 point profit so the juice is over 70% .
    Be very careful if trying spreadbetting for the first time

    yah. stupid form of gambling. when things go wrong they go wrong bad.

    A slightly lesser scam than Parlaymakers. At least Synbet didnt set up a scam digital currency an steal from both the currency and the "sportsbook". I could tell Synbet was a scam when I talked to 'customer service', but Max / *******/ Parlaymakers got me for three figures . ***holes!!

    Wonderful news. Cant say it wasnt expected though.

    Seems like a lot of sites are hiding behind processor issues now.

    Glad I didnt put any money into this site

    there is no reason to use either of them if Betfair is available to you... the U.S market is the only reason matchy was prospering..

    JJ is 1000% percent right.

    Matchbook was trash before Tradesports closed. No volume to speak of. When TS closed - they got volume by default. Awful management team did nothing with it. Sell it to another bunch of morons who still leave events open with not a cent of volume.

    Betmaker has had even a better opportunity. Cant say they have done enough with it. I must admit, at least they got rid of the stupid commission structure, and now have more live wagering than Matchbook ever had - but thats still not enough given the chance they have as the only game in town for US players.

    Tradesports was a successful us facing exchange, but they didnt want to deal with deposits other than ************.

    Could you imagine the market out there for this if someone would just listen to what the players want.

    JJ - Honestly, I think they were - hence the reason they sold - and there was no money on hand to pay current client accounts - causing that slow pay. We dont know the standing that they had causing the sale.

    I don’t think they were bankrupt at all. They seem to be making a small go of it.

    Then what was it??

    All these players who claim to be making and wagering thousands - figure out how much that would have earned them in commissions. A huge amount of money.

    So for one - why did they sell? And why did it take them so long to pay US players? They had no money. YOu cant claim processor errors before you even try to pay anyone.
