Any info about 3vig.com

I bumped into this site today and chatted with their live help.
They offer 3% vig on basketball and football which sounds pretty tempting. Unlike most of the new startups their site looks polished and it seemes to work well. I also do not think it is any kind of a turn key operation. If you have some information about their background to share, I'd be gratefull.

And before you say anything, I know it is not the best time to fool around with new books.

I think this says it all about this book:

30% CASH Bonus

Pay NO VIG

This one reeks of a scam IMO

yes it does dan...

Hmm, thanks for your answers lads, but that is really not what I was looking for.

Dan - Did you read the conditions of those bonuses?
- 30% cash comes with 20x rollover
- Pay no vig is a competition of theirs, if you hit 70% of your straight bets in a given 30 day period, you'll get the vig back.
This is not easy to do, if I have understood it right.

I was more looking for information of financial backing, owners, size of the operation etc. Not just simple warnings. They are supposed to be located in Costa Rica so I figured SBR could have a hunch.

I checked it out. The software they use is very nice indeed.

Think about it 30% bonus and 3% juice....Pinny can't even offer that.

I know it says 20x rollover but think about how long it will take you to complete that. You will be done the rolllover right after the Superbowl ends. Just in time for these guys to fly the coup.(Just a theory).


But seriously, Aren't you even a little concerned in the direction the industry is going in?

The only books I would even consider playing at are.:


Pinny
Cris
Greek
Betjam
Wsex


Missed a couple that might be ok like Bowmans, Bodog,Ledgenz etc... but this is not the time to be trying out new books at the moment...IMO.

Good luck

Yep, I am concerned. On the other hand, there is a whole bunch of homeless bettors looking for bookmakers that accept US customers, so in a way this situation also represents a window of opportunity for new operations. With the background information that I asked for I can do my own risk / return analysis and decide what to do. Without it, there is too many question marks.

I wouldn't think about it dudes...
