Warning to offshore bettors

[ronald]

This applies year-round, but especially at this time of year. Beware of being overly exposed at questionable books. NBA playoffs will be done in six weeks. Historically, if a book is going to close shop and stiff players, they do it in June/July. It's still only April, but if you have bigger balances at sketchy shops, it might be time to try to move some of that money out. This thread isn't intended to create panic and I don't have any books in mind that may be on the brink of failure, but it's just something to keep in mind at this time of year.

Rarely a book goes belly up anymore, they just usually get bought up by another outfit. In past years this might of been true.

Huh....huh....huh?


Ronald's advice should not be taken with a grain of salt.......................THIS IS NOT THE TIME TO BE IN QUESTIONABLE BOOKS AND/OR OVEREXPOSED AT AVERAGE BOOKS.

[big joe 1212]

there is no reason to be exposed at all in questionable books, let alone overexposed.

No reason to play at these kind of books!

Too many solid books out there!

This is true for most, but not all of us.

This is not something I have to worry about, hence i'm broke

Off Shore Books can go down in a flat second. They can simply run out of funds, get slammed by the Federal Government, or any other number of possibilities. Anyone who gambles in here and who does so using off shore books should be well aware of which books are on solid backing and which are not. It is never a wise idea to have all of your eggs invested in one basket, especially one off shore. I think that the advice given in this thread is very legitimate, and should be looked at seriously.

When did Cascade close up shop and stiff people? That wasn't too long ago and they were an A book here at SBR I believe.

[Brock Landers]

play at Matchbook, thegreek, betjam, pinnacle (if you can), no problems AT ALL there.

[ronald]

Open or not, they stiffed a lot of people.

[mathdotcom]

What is difference between a shop whose URL doesn't load and a shop whose URL does load but does not process payouts? If anything the latter is worse.

[GRUMPERZ]

Cascade still open Son

cmon man

[ronald]

Saying cascade is still open may be the dumbest post you've ever made, Coach. And that says something.

[flyingillini]

I feel very safe with my funds at the shop I play at! Never a problem getting my money whenever I want

[Brock Landers]

Don't play at shit books..simple as that

It's not that simple. That's like saying don't buy penny stocks. Some of them can be very profitable if you pick your spots right.

[minet123]

Those and Betfair and your money is safe in any UK book with a store front-although if you have half a brain they will cut your limits to 50 pence

agreed. but, payouts always slow after the college basketball season. it's been that way for years. especially at the b and c rated books.

Time to take what RONALD stated into consideration........RIGHT NOW!

Lazerwager...jj? Did you forget those crooks? They shut down after Nba

[mathdotcom]

ronald does NOT want to be brain dead

[ronald]

Have been getting out of a few questionable books lately due to the time of year. Also have had less time to bet and post these days due to some dental issues.....and some mental issues.

And do not forget about Sexywagers.com
