SBR Please stop running contests through shit books

Bet Phoenix isnt a bad book persay, but the problem is its not widely used by sbr posters. Which in turn makes it difficult for some to enter contests.

They do this for many contests.

The books chosen for contests are not fly by night operations, or lower class operations that you might see hanging a banner at other forums. There are no "slow pay" or unestablished shops that are being used for the contests here.

Did you forget which forum you're on at the moment?

I got an e-mail from a betpheonix guy and he was like "you have $5.60 in your account, you should play it".

Bookmaker? 5Dimes?

I posted this earlier, thought it may help to the discussion.

I made the FF in the last 128-man tourney, and ended up with $75 bucks in BetPhoenix. I went on a crazy run, and ended up taking a partial payout of 1150 **/ and some more on a check.

I had the ** payout within 18 hours. It was ridiculously easy. I called them--- requested the payout at 4PM EST. I had the reference number at 10AM the next morning.

I was impressed with BetPhoenix.

Thanks

5Dimes is the biggest shit book of them all, more so than almost every SBR sponsor.

You do realize that you do not have to participate in any of the contests, don't you?

If you don't like the books that are chosen, don't play...simple as that!

That's a shame Onner. I remember a week or so ago when I mentioned the credit thing through Bet Phoenix, you had no problem signing up with them then

. Bet Phoenix is a fine book.

rjt, I love you but I strongly disagree with you here. 5 Dimes has a lot of unique lines not available anywhere else, not to mention their MLB nickel overnights.
