    Which sportsbook was your first?
    Mine was Bet Royal back in 1999. Back in the Scotty Johnson days! They went to shit after he left!

    I remember I didn't trust books back then until a friend of mine told me about Royal and how he had no problems with them.

    You never forget who you lost your virginity to and you never forget who your first sportsbook was.

    Mine was Sportsbook.com

              Can't remember because I tried so many free bet books which all were scams in which I thankfully never deposited. I think the first book I deposited with was Sportsbook.Com. They are dog-shit compared to even a B book these days.

                                    Coral 1988. I used to walk in the shop study stats from paper sheets and then place my 5 team parlay on carbon copy paper then hand the cash to the bookie he would punch and time stamp the bet and give me back my ticket.

                                    How times have changed.

                                              1st book for me was Sportsbook.com around 1999 or 2000. Was a good book back then as they had good contests and sent free fedex checks when I withdrawed. Don't use them as much but still have an account there.

                                                    My first online sportsbook account was with William Hill. I used to go to the library and bet then go home to watch the game.

                                                    I still have the account but dont think I've made a bet with them in 5 years.
