that's where i started my posting career back in 1999..it was great times..i loved it..haven't even been there in 6 months..last time i checked in there, i did not recognize 1 name..

it used to be a great site.. not sure how it is today.

flyingillini · 07-23-09, 07:32 PM

They are having their bash right before ours at the same place.

Pecos Bill · 07-23-09, 07:42 PM

used to be good but the mods killed it for me.

pavyracer · 07-23-09, 07:46 PM

Anything started by the shrink sucks.

Sforz · 07-23-09, 07:47 PM

some sharp cappers over there, such as Ace-Ace.

Chuck Sims · 07-23-09, 07:54 PM

My last post at The RX was a warning to players to get their money out of BetOnSports, Millennium, and all other BOS owned sportsbooks. The post was deleted and 3 days later all BOS owned books closed their doors and stiffed everyone.

Before deletion of that post, The RX would leave up my warning posts that BOS was a house of cards. Those dirtbags, especially Wilheim who recommended buying stock in BOS before the stock went belly up has ruined The RX. Oh, and Ace-Ace is a fraud. He manipulates his veiwing posts to the point of comedy.

Finally someone with some words of wisdom.

First forum I stumbled upon around 2005. Lots of colorful characters at the time - it has since died down, in big part because of the stricter, more corporate approach they took towards moderation (Chuck Sims gives an example above).

I used to write for Ace-Ace. I can guarantee you he doesn't make his own picks.

You got all us lovlies here at SBR, why go anywhere else, ass-hole?

Jimmy0607 · 07-23-09, 08:44 PM

In case you are talking to me , I'm not going anywhere I used to post there but Don't anymore so I'm just asking what anyone else thinks about them, Ass-hole?

If not then ignore lol

Fishhead · 07-23-09, 08:45 PM

As the leading poster at TheRX(70,000 posts) and a former mod there.................and knowing what I do about head Mod Wilheim and most of the mods there now as well as the hundreds of characters that post there currently(including myself)................it is a terriffic site and one I would recommend it to anyone interested in offshore gaming, meeting great people, and learning about different gaming topics.

Mudcat · 07-23-09, 10:58 PM

For years it was a shill forum, insulting to the intelligence, disrespectful to its members - then it got worse.

I haven't given it a serious look for quite awhile though. At least a year. I may take a gander some time just to sample the current flavor.

when sbg stiffed me for 18,300$, i went to their site to ask for help to collect the money since they were an advertiser and they kept pimping them everyday saying how great they are.. when i emailed wilheim and 2 other mods, they completely avoided my emails.. then i posted in the forum that sbg is stiffing me, they deleted it.. then wilheim finally responded to me and said he can't help me.. then another mod there emailed me too and said same thing to me.. sorry, i can't do anything for you..

no one wanted to touch sbg.. they coudln't have cared any less about this stiff.. but then the next day, i saw wilheim and some mod saying to a new poster that he should go to sbg, they are a great book..

mathdotcom · 07-23-09, 11:35 PM

They have 10c MLB moneylines now though, Nicky

i'm signing up tomorrow.. i hope they offer bonuses too..actually, sbg is the best place to bet offshore if you intend on never winning and never collecting..as long as you keep losing every week, you will never have any problems there.. in fact, they will love you and treat you like VIP, but just don't ask for a payout or they will no longer like you.. and don't expect to get that money either. just make sure you keep losing and you will love sbg..

Crash · 07-23-09, 11:44 PM

sucks now but keep looking sbr is hundreds times better with help posters mods etc... but still some good posters there with some good picks!!

i heart sbr no homo

wtf · 07-23-09, 11:46 PM

holy fuk nicky, that is a shocking tale

i am really sorry that happened to you

i am concerned that FH is on this site flogging the dog shit RX to us, should be ashamed to be such a sell out

The RX didn't fall for the multiple identity Neteller scammer, then? They've gone up in my estimations a little.

What a friggin idiot,see post 9,that is the shithole described perfectly.Wilamina is an asshole too.

Nick Santoro - regarding post #22.

I just want to clear the air regarding allegations made by poster Nick Santoro (he had another name back then as most of you know). Here is a copy of the email string between us regarding the matter in September of 2006. I X'd out some information for privacy reasons. You need to read from the bottom up.

BTW: The Rx is doing fine and will be celebrating another Bash (my 5th straight) at The Golden Nugget in August (the week before SBR's Event which is just a coincidence, we have been targeting that weekend for around 8 months).

Any of you SBR people who will be in Las Vegas early (the weekend of August 14th and 15th) are invited to attend our event. You can play in our poker tourney on Saturday at Noon ($5,000 in prize money) and attend our Reception dinner that night. Just drop me a line at person19481950@yahoo.com and I will hook you up with the details. Everything is free (except we are collecting $20 a man to toke the poker crew). The Reception Dinner will include a huge buffett along with 2 open bars. Plus a lot more. (mods if this part about the Rx Bash invite is out of line please delete and kindly accept my apologies).

Thanks, wilheim

Email string between myself and Nick Santoro regarding his SbgGlobal problem. He simply stopped responding after my last email, one in which I actually included my home phone (I was living in the states then) so he could call me or I would have been happy to call him if he had supplied a number.

I have over 25,000 emails archived that I have received regarding forum business in my 4 plus years as head mod at The Rx.com and I always respond to all requests for assistance and have helped well over 100 to 150 posters resolve various problems at any number of sport books. During that time I have always been friendly and cooperative with the staff here at SBR whenever we discussed any type of player or forum business that was of mutual interest.

Copied just now from my email archive:Read from bottom up please.

I never heard from him again after the Sept. 12th email. wilheim

Curious why Nicky Gambler would stop e-mailing wil - guess he got bored of wanting his money.

Nicky Santoro · 07-24-09, 11:03 AM

wilfredo ,i swear you are not posting everything..wilbert, you did NOT post the one where you and Sportsavant told me sorry, i can't do anything about it.. wilber, you wanted no part of this at all..i swear i remember.. why else would i just forget about 18,300$ for? wilmer, i am not as dumb as i look..

wtf · 07-24-09, 01:39 PM

so nicky they still owe u that sum i assume?

wilheim · 07-24-09, 02:16 PM

Claudski, I just did a search for emails from your ClaudeXXXXXX email addy sent to and received from my email address that you used to begin with person19481950@yahoo.com We exchanged three emails each back in 2006 which by the way was long before SBGlobal was a sponsor at The Rx.com. They are copied in my first post.

Results of a search I just made for your Claude email addy on my person19481950@yahoo.com addy:

Refine Results
Sender
Wilheim (4) The three I replied to your 3 emails sent plus I sent one today to see if I could avoid making this post but got no response. You can see where it says 1 in 2009.
ClaudeXXXXX (3) These are the three above you see you sent - you know that is your writing.
Folders (0)
Sent (4)Inbox (3) These are the four I sent and the total received from and to ClaudeXXXXXX@hotmail.com (1 from today and 6 from 2006)
Message Status
Unflagged (7)Read (6)
Dates 2009 (1) 2006 (6)

I received 3 from you and sent 4 back (1 was today in 2009)

That is all I have, with the info I had, there was nothing I could do, no account number and I ran a search for the number 18,300$ and came up with the following.

Sorry. We didn't find any results matching the following criteria:
containing the search term: 18,000$
You might want to:
Broaden your search by using fewer search terms
Check your spelling
Try using different words that mean the same thing

Maybe you had a differerent correspondence with Sportsavant but I did not ignore you and even emailed you my phone number which you could have called anytime.

I am sorry but I do not delete any legitimate emails that concern The Rx or wilheim business.

I wish I could have spoke to you on the phone back then it might have helped me at least get enough info to try.

My apologies but I really figured you would call me, then several months later I moved back to Costa Rica.

Best, wilheim

If you know SBG is a stiff book why would u allow them to be a sponsor and send unknowing players to get stiffed again. Sounds like you have no morals. Forums are the most ****ed up place on the net. Where else can a stiff con artist book hand a banner and get a pat on the back from head mods. It makes me sick and it should make everyone in the business sick
