It Seems We Are Always Talking About Garbage Books Here

What baffles me is why people play at some of these books. Are they that stupid or are they just misinformed? I mean, even before I started betting, I could tell from all the ads I saw in football magazines that Bet On Sports was probably bad news. With all the information that's available to bettors these days, I really don't feel bad when some of them get stiffed while playing at crappy books. The sports bettor has never had the advantages that he has today. We have access to the same information that the linesmakers do and we have access to reviews and critiques of almost every sportsbook around. The odds are in the player's favor now more than ever. I just can't feel bad for people who don't do their homework before making decisions.

Does anyone ever talk about Carib and the WWTS's of the world

Actually, at the time I am typing this, this thread is directly between threads about Carib and LasVegasSportsbook/Hollywood. Every day I am involved in many discussions of top rated books here.

I do get your point. I sometimes scratch my head about why people are considering some of these obscure upstart books. But I'm not sure why it is necessary to take that next step and suggest that top books aren't also prominently discussed.

I've been getting some very good sportsbook info for my business on this forum.

Some of these books have opionated lines and sometimes it's worth the risk.

Not all D books are bad. Some actually pay until you really start winning.

I only play books that are rated "A" on SBR. Anything else I refuse to touch. Don't care for bonuses nor promotions if I don't get paid.

I like that one Pedro. If we can activate signatures, you should go with that. =)

example of Garbage book = Intertops , going from bad to worse .

**Bill Dozer** · 09-14-05, 03:46 AM

Ace,

Fill us in? Did you have a negative experience at Intertops?

Most new books simply never make it. The failure rate is very high. A few are able to link up with established books but few new books deserve an above average rating. Evaluations are a continual work in progress so I don't have to say that we appreciate hearing the details about all of these outfits.

I should add that a forum is a great place to disect ratings. There are players who use 50 bucks and do not care if one of their shops doesn't return emails but the majority of SBR's users expect a decent rated book to have it all and if they show a weak spot the player wants the book out of 'B' territory. They really expect to know what they are getting after visiting the site.

The players who use C rated books for certain perks and know how to take advanatge of the good and accept the bad, will always enjoy a good debate.

They really like to debate!

Intertops is at worst a B- book

**BAUS** · 09-14-05, 11:23 AM

Speaking of WWTS, I am waiting for a Neteller payout from their sister book, Cybersportsbook.com. Requested Monday afternoon, still hasn't arrived yet.

Does anyone there know how to process a payout?

One man's garbage is another man's treasure but probably not transitional to book selection.

Well, that is one of the primary purposes of SportsbookReview.com and SBR's Forum, to help players make informed decisions and enable them to separate the "garbage" books from quality outs. In a perfect world, we would never need to be discussing the ESBs, BMLs and BOSs of the offshore world, but, as we all know, this industry is still far from being perfect.

**Bill Dozer** · 09-14-05, 12:02 PM

Baus,
Please send an email or PM so that I can inquire with CB.

**jjgold** · 09-14-05, 12:08 PM

I guess true Boys where some guys like smaller lesser rated books and will play there so they ask questions and SBR has such a big list of book they cover the poster comes here for help.

I can see it more clearly now

**BAUS** · 09-14-05, 12:10 PM

I will if I don't receive it by this evening Bill.

The entire Betcorp organization deserves to have their ratings reconsidered. The current WWTS isn't at all like the old WWTS. The new company that took over has really bungled things up over there.
