    Anyone remember Bettorsworld and Major Wager?

    These guys were the forums to be on a while back. Met a few pro gamblers that used to post also. Did any of you guys post on these? They really went to crap now. SBR did some things right for sure. Not many forums managed to survive this long.

    Don't remember that particular play but the poster yes. He really passed away? Or did you say that as if he quit posting?

    A poster named clevefan rings a bell, brought a lot of news and info. Was probably a mod.

    There was a dude from Montreal that had a long thread about hanging out with Barry Bonds in a small breakfast shop. He knew where the Giants players went when they were in town. I think his handle was degenerategambler and he was all of that. There was a guy from the Bronx that was the right hand man and even had a startup sportsbook that did not last very long. He knew Aces Gold was going down and did not say anything because there was nothing anybody could do. Cheered like a moron for a Super Bowl I did not collect on after I won.

    The Bettorsworld/oddswiz stuff goes way back. Some of the Reno/Boomer discussions were a lot of fun.

    Jeff is still around at Bettorsworld. His CFB key releases had a 4 week streak of 18-1-1. Made my season. I've communicated with him off and on via Email for a few decades. Seems like a straight up guy. (BTW, their betting library has some good articles.)
