      you must have thought you were 'the natural'. as for me, i reloaded about 34 minutes after my initial deposit once some team went down about 20 in the first half. that money was promptly lost on another play and i then searched for forums to get myself some advice.

          My very first posted play was Rutgers +510 ML and it won

          I thought I was hot shit had bet like $2 on it and won over $10 lol

          Then went to CBS boards got some advice, then started a forum with people there and that is pretty profitable... I post my CBB plays from there on here

              I remember way back when; I opened like a $200 account with ESB, LOL..I knew nothing of who was reputable, and all that. This was before you had all the on-line forums and all that good jazz.

              It did not matter as I tapped it out in a couple months anyway. Later I talked to a big gambler at the race track, and he told me that ESB was the biggest scam book out there

              Few years later when I really got into sports betting I actually came across SBR, and and was also told by others the Greek was top notch, and I opened a pretty good size account there. I also got NON STOP phone calls from ESB for AT LEAST 3 years telling me to come back and play with them, no joke!

                ESB was my first book. Had them for like 4 years. The last year I used them I hit them pretty good and they stoped paying me. The fvcks owe me like 2700 still. Im glad there burried. Hey James from ESB if ur still out there reading forum posts fvck u you Jamaican cocksucker! You know who I am. Anyways because of that mishap I found SBR.

                        I played a lot of poker and Cybersportsbook was associated with a poker room (paradise?). I could transfer money between the sportsbook and poker room so that was fine. I couldn't tell you what I bet.

                            Sportfanatic. They ended up trying to rip me off and SBR was born. They did pay two years and 3 email bombs later.
