    SBOBet (Not rated) one of the biggest Asian books out there. They are mainly used for soccer and do offer some nice odds, not to mention the fact that offer pretty high limits. However, they do offer other sports to wager on like cricket, tennis, basketball, ect, ect.

    Good for high rollers,
    Also very early openings, good for those who want to catch early odds, many other books follow their movements blindly...
    Mainly soccer events... Leagues offered...
    Good live betting...

    Good bookie...

    This book can take bets up to 1 mn $.
    Some security issues here.No licenses no nothing, but has great reputation among real high rollers.

    seems like a good book. i don't know what game it talked about in the book. i am not sure the ghana game was fixed...i was pretty convinced ghana just played really well during the world cup.

    talking about fix. england and brazil going down the same round back to back seems like a fix...especially the brazil loss. shitload of people in hong kong lost shitload of money betting on england that day. the Hong Kong gov even made bunch of public service commercials talking about how gambling is evil and specifically mentioned the england loss. they even made a cute cartoon of roony not making the goals.

    Incredibly hard to fix a soccer match, there are too many players involved, and lots of people to bribe means way too many potential leaks. Bribe the keeper to give up a goal is the only real route, and that's a little obvious (there was a match like this in the English Championship last month, huge halftime bet on one side, and goalkeeper then coughs up a goal straight away). I seriously doubt top level games are much affected, the players are all far too rich relative to the bet sizes. Serie B and Russian 2nd division are another matter though.....

    Lots of fixing in tennis though, you only need 1 guy. Most regular followers of the game could name ten obvious matchfixers in the top 100 - everyone knows who they are (you can spot them a mile off in betfair), but the ATP refuses to do anything.
