    One of these other books are going to step up and offer these balances as FP's....

    I'm pretty sure this is going to happen, might have 5x rollover or whatever but its a great time for a book to make a name for themselves...

    But is it going to be a book that is secure? There is no way a bigger book, ie hertiage, dsi, bookmaker, is going to, because they have enough customers. Any other book doesn't have the financial backing to take on that large of a group.

    people will bet both sides and pay the juice. I wouldn't call that a great idea giving away free money like that.

    Of course not but what will be the risk at that point? You already lost your $$$

    I can see a book doing something like this

    and then what?

    rinse and repeat

    makes 0 sense for a book to risk it, much less 1 mil. worth in FPs with any amount of roll

    but i sure hope something happens for these victims, but no reputable solid book ever would

    John and others have said that there is interested parties on acquiring it. Let's hope something is done just in time for the holidays. I feel for the ones that have funds tied up there. This is why I have several accounts with different ones at this time. Spread your funds out with all the different ones that have an A rating. That is my advise.

    Mike think it's time to do away with ratings yet?

    I don't have world changing money in islands, BUT it is still/was my money and would be thankful for any resolution.

    just meant we should limit it to a book that at least has the possibility of paying out a large balance after you meet the rollover.
    so that excludes americ asboo kie, vice, etc

    I figured so Mike, your sharp on things. I just assume we may see a roll over and like no pay out for 3 months at another mickey mouse shop. No real need for a big boy in the industry to take this on.

    I'm 3.1 hours away from closest Nevada book, guess maybe road trips in my future.

    road trips can be fun, especially to casinos! one of my favorite pasttimes, a lot of weekend trips with the family, luckily they enjoy it too and nobody minds if i go to the casino all night.

    Very doubtful. Their accounts have been shopped around the last couple of weeks in Costa Rica. Too many large sharps and no one wants to acquire that big a debt.

    I'm thinking about starting up a new sportsbook. Might take over ur balances. John and I are meeting at the pub later to have a beer. Will finalize the scam plan then.

    besides AB that was mentioned

    their sister site is also trying to do the same thing

    they are asking people to send proof of their balance

    since i have bashed their parent company for lying about SBR ratings posted on their site I would not post up there

    they hate me and would probably try to screw me over
