[nico1zuzu]

IMO Bodog better than 9th (even if it was 10th)

[DeluxeLiner]

What kind of perks do I get for mentioning your name to these books?

What kind of perks do I get for mentioning your name to these books?

I think Fishhead is a pretty sharp guy.

One of the best +/E gamblers I have seen.

Fishhead also is very knowledgeable in the area of Multi vitamins/supplements.

I have also heard that Fishhead is quite the ladies man.

Some have accused him of being a bonus whore. But, I say you gotta do whatever you can to try to gain an edge.

So, heres to you Mr. Fishhead! Stay thirsty my friend.

Thanks for your opinion.............

[Fishhead]

None that I'm aware of..........

[MartinBlank]

Fish......

Okay, serious question.

You cite Greek for money safety yet rank them #2 behind Matchy----who gets no mention of safety of funds.

You see the problems with that?

If these rankings reflected SAFETY ONLY, which they do not, they would be ranked ahead of Matchbook.

The TOP FOUR books ranked for safety in the TOP 15 at this time are..........

GREEK, HERITAGE, LEGENDS, and BOOKMAKER


Matchbook is #1 because they offer unparralled value for the U.S. PUNTER that cannot be equalled at this time, and although not a TOP FOUR book for safety, certainly much safer than hundreds of other offshore sportsbooks at this time.

Shouldn't safety trump all other considerations? Not much value if your money is at unnecessary risk that you aren't even aware of.....correct?

Incorrect......................RISK vs. REWARD.......REWARD vs. RISK


However, SAFETY certainly plays a huge role in the rankings.


There are no shops in the TOP 15 that any member of our staff, including myself, would hesitate sending money to at this time.........and this will always be the case.


Keep in mind, one should never send money offshore they cannot afford to lose.

[KC]

Bookmaker calls my house a few times a year, I would downgrade them.

[Christina33]

Interesting opinions.........

Im just a long time observer.

Fish, that is circular logic.

Today you created this thread and went out of your way to mention which four books are the safest with players money.

When I ask you why safety isn't your number one consideration, you tell me that no one would hesitate to deposit at any of the books you listed.

So, then why bother mentioning which four books are the safest?

It doesn't do a player much good if they win and then can't collect their money, or they are slow paid. Further, it doesn't do a player much good if his side never gets matched.

Having a wager unmatched---even when you are offering a great numbers-----is potentially lost money for the player.

[jjgold]

Solid list although no idea about easy street

Some punters ONLY take safety into consideration when playing offshore and nothing else, this is why the rankings now list the top four rated books based on safety ONLY.


To answer your second question, if one is not getting numbers matched at MB, they are either not trying hard enough and/or are simply not sharp enough.........even without getting wagers matched, MB provides the best lines the vast majority of time on most all sports if one simply just acts on offers that are up currently, even if they have to pay a very small commission for doing such.

[Sam Odom]

TOP 5 is all one needs

[Doug]

5D should get the safety rating.

[konck]

Does Matchbook really get that much traffic to be rated #1?

[KingKolzig]

do you make any real money besides sbr points

[KingKolzig]

the only moron in this industry with a big head that doesnt make a fukkin cent

[Fishhead]

5D should get the safety rating.

Doug, the TOP FOUR books for safety are listed...........of the four books rated the safest in the TOP 15, which one would you replace 5DIMES with?

[Fishhead]

the only moron in this industry with a big head that doesnt make a fukkin cent

Do you find ghosting with immature comments self-gratifying?

I reckon so........as your posts bring absolutely nothing to the table for anyone here at SBR.

[nosniboR11]

good list , thank you fish

Go Rangers

[KingKolzig]

u have revieved all my posts lol. where do i rank on the FH list of ghost posters

get a fukkin job guy u r here like 18 hours a day and u dont make a fukkin dime from it

[Fishhead]

Solid list although no idea about easy street

At #14, this is the highest ranking ever for Easystreet...............

[Fishhead]

Does Matchbook really get that much traffic to be rated #1?

Again, the ratings are based on many, many factors.

Having said that, MB has hundreds and hundreds of customers...........many of them that feel MB is the absolute best offshore sportsbook in their arsenal.

[LostBankroll]

Doug, the TOP FOUR books for safety are listed...........of the four books rated the safest in the TOP 15, which one would you replace 5DIMES with?

Legends. I didnt know they were so safe. Honestly 5Dimes will send you a check and have it to you in 2 days. Offer better/many more lines than Legends. I think its a clear choice here Fishie! How big of a freeplay did Legends send you this week to move up in the rankings?

1. Legends did not move up in the rankings.

2. There is more to determining the safety of a book beyond quick payouts, but having said that, 5DIMES ranks very high on the safety scale.

[KingKolzig]

oh oh i have a huge issue with ur 12 and 13 rankings. i strongly advise that they be switched. its so so important that u switch them, if not it might bring down the entire industry

[Doug]

maybe Legends ?

5D made a transfer to MB for me today in 30 minutes. Legends can't do that.
