    reloaded With Skybook and Regret It.
    This place is unreal. It is obvious they were swapted tonight. I was on live chat for 40 minutes without anything being resolved. This is the kicker. I couldn't see the NFL or college lines. They wouldn't load. I have cable connection. Every other sport would load. Funny how after the NFL game kicks off I'm able to see all the lines. If the crap server they use can't handle the traffic then they need to upgrade. The staff that takes the bets has no idea about the free 1/2 you get on games. They transfer you to customer service so it could be "added". ****ing morons. The customer service manager Mike settles for crap service from his workers. Really it is like they hired a bunch of people off of the street yesterday. Play at your own risk.

        I'm willing to put up with a little hassle to get a free 1/2 pt. I've never had problems with payouts there except for the fees.

        Too bad they aren't offering the 50-100pct reloads like they did all season last year.

          Touted by AK recently, that makes me nervous. Otherwise they have been around a very long time.

                I have been usuing them and they have been ok. When You reload or start with them you have to call them to set your account or you won't get the free play. The 1/2 point on football is not that big of a deal since I noticed they move their lines 1/2 off everyone else. But they will give you up to $250 on free play when you sign up. I have never cashed out so I don't know if they are reliable about thaT.

                  Cash outs are expensive (like 8%) but I've never had a problem cashing out there.

                  note: I cashed out 3 times from Feb 1st to May 12th for mid 4 figures each time - but have not cashed out since then so can't speak about anything from May 12 - now.

                    john, being around for a long time doesn't necessarily mean you'd tell players to play there though, right?...

                      Well no but they are not a fly-by-night either. Its an average book. If a player played there and liked them and asked my advice I'd say stay there. If he was a new player looking for a book I'd tell him there are 20 better.

                          Do you think that 1/2 point on the nfl is significant enough to play there? I mean how many times would you win with it? Would it make that much diffrence?
