    Good question.

    I can tell you that alot of players have had issues with this book in the past, even before they stopped taking U.S. action a few weeks back. Personally, I would stick with books like Pinny, Wsex, TheGreek, and 5dimes. You know those books won't screw you at all.

        The question is WHY? Why send them a penny with the handful of true A books out there?

            because there was a future I liked...

            but I think everyone has answered the question

              Because sometimes the odds are better than elsewhere. Bodog needs non-us customers so they are going to try and look after them I reckon.

              I joined BetBet (part of Betwwts) at the beginning of October.

              I had heard SBR is reliable and I saw BetWWTS rated A+. I thought therefore I would have no trouble whatsoever.

              This whole situation unfortunately forces me to take anything SBR says with a big pinch of salt.

              If it says a book is A-rated, then so what? BetWWTS was A-rated and they folded.

                  The 'future' health of your money is more important. Stay away.

                    then why they are rated C-? that's quite a high grade, comparing with your comment

                      SBR decided not to respond to many players complaints. as even big boy dan says there were a lot of issues and nothing changed with their rating for a long time

                      same goes with cris, apparently their CS improved greatly recently, so i guess an upgrade is imminent from A+

                        Anytime a book can't or won't pay most of their customers, I wouldn't join despite them paying out to some parts of the world. They have paid out to many customers outside the US fwiw, but that really isn't enough to risk it IMO.
