10/27 SBR upgrades and downgrades

**Shawn01** · 10-27-05, 07:28 PM

As someone new to sports wagering I'm amazed at the staggering number of books that exist. It's also incredible how many of them have bad ratings. I used SBR before deciding on which SB to use and I am very glad I did. As a rec bettor I don't expect to run into any of the problems the big timers do at VIP and so far I've received my payments immediately after the games concluded.

Keep your eyes open wide ... Even the reputable ones make mistakes ... <wink, wink>.

Many, many books are no more than a server and 3-4 guys with pretty much zero money. Most books win and thats what attracts a guy to try. But if the ball bounces against them then they simply cant pay.

yeah, most of them are just skeleton operations hoping to find a couple of big bettors that lose a lot...
