pags, do you mean WSEX? Then you are talking about Matchbook.
Mansions parent company is Mansion.

Mansion is owned by a Cigar billionaire apparently
Brilliant book & I would say your cash here is as damn near 100% safe as you can get

There's was no personal attack in my post. To recap for your benefit I said that you should let SBR stick with the ratings while you concentrate on something you're good at.
A personal attack is calling someone a "prick" and a "shit-stirrer". You know, like you just did in your last post.

You see what I was getting at? You see how I was saying you should concentrate on whatever your strengths are and leave the ratings game to SBR?
Like Slash said, WSEX have nothing to do with Mansion - this is schoolboy sportsbook knowledge. But thanks for proving my point for me.

Until the owner realises he's not making any money and pulls the plug.

He last lost millions and millions over the past 2 years and will continue to do so in the future. I love that place.

You do their accounting?
there is reasoning behind the current rating which you're unable to grasp
$$$
I think anyone who has played at, say, betfair thinks its kind of funny people get exited about mansion.
Yeah, everyone paying 5% less commission at Mansion is an idiot.

first of all, I stand corrected about Mansion's parent company...it was indeed matchbook that I was thinking of...
think about what you are tacomax...you have some knowledge on the industry, zero knowledge on handicapping, you lurk around the forum and relish the opportunity to put down posters yet you rarely come up with any real contributions to the forum...what real use are you to this forum?...I'm not the one that should think about going elsewhere...
if I'm king of the "...", your queen of the ridiculous cut and paste...I mean, come on...you cut and paste practically my entire post...are you a law school burnout that's trying to get your kicks here on SBR while you watch re-runs of the Practice in your mom's basement?...there is a reason why posters like buddy think you're a waste of space...

getting back to my justification regarding mansion...I've never heard of them not paying someone...never have heard a legit complaint regarding their CS...they have overnight lines, low juice...other than legnth of being in business, can anyone elaborate on why they feel mansion's not rated an A by SBR?...

No, an idiot would be someone who thinks paying 0% commision on 1.9 is better than getting 2.2 and paying 5% commission.
That would be an idiot ... someone who just looks at the commission. You need to look at the prices as well DickySteve. Doh!!

Seriously, if they aren't down at least 3 digits in millions of US$, I would be surprised.

Maybe you should look at the prices, monkey. On the World Cup today, Mansion beats Betfair on every 1X2 price, and by a wide margin in almost every case. How about Major League Baseball? Mansion blows away Betfair on EVERY SINGLE TEAM.
Keep throwing that commission money away, limey.

OK Dicky. Just remember ... always look at the prices before you make a bet.
0% commission does NOT always mean its a good bet.
Let me know if you are still stuck on this.

What you still fail to understand is that you thinking that Mansion "is one of the top sites out there" doesn't mean that they should be given an "A" rating purely for your benefit - there is reasoning behind the current rating which you're unable to grasp. Why not leave the SBR guys to the ratings and you can concentrate on something you're good at, whatever that might be.
Taco, once and for all would you stop with the personal attacks on here please.

Lets keep in mind B+ is a very strong rating. I think B+ puts a book in the top 5%. They are the highest rated 2 year old book on SBR. We love Mansion but they have not passed the test of time.

I hate to get into these threads that involve sponsors. Mansion is a sponsor of the SBR Forum and if you glance at the list up top you will see we are very selective.
Is your money as safe at Mansion as an A+ Pinny, CRIS or VIP? Absolutely not. But it is B+ safe.
For reference; only one B+ rated book has failed in the 7 years of SBR. No A- or higher book has been in any kind of trouble.
Bottomline is your money is safe at Mansion and everyone should give this book a shot.
