    Can you list the offshore odds for entertainment purposes only please? Reading numbers is how I make money in this business, not knowing 5 people on the Milwaukee Brewers roster.

    I applaud this move by SBR and look forward to it.

    Would be great to still be able to see some offshore lines, but I get it.

    I'll be curious to see if SBR has free play payouts to US books, that'd be pretty cool.

    I knew you’d come around eventually. Crypto huge pain in the ass these days, not to mention can put you on the list. Easy deposit / withdraw no fees with onshore. Enough books you can line shop and get a decent line. + good promos. Everything legal. Guaranteed money is safe. Glad SBR is heading this direction.

    US odds from sportsbooks should definitely be included in SBR odds, however, I hope this little change we are seeing is not going to be a US focus and offshore odds are not going to be included as the vast majority of gambling is going to be done offshore in the next few years and not many of us have any options where that is concerned. It is far more important for a gambler in the US or offshore to know what the offshore odds are.

    I think if SBR Odds does not include offshore, the use of it will go to zero.

    Not zero but close. Without a pinnacle opener and Betonline etc there is literally no point.

    You're the epitome of a clueless square, just the kind of saps that the corporate monopolist "sports books" thrive on.

    "Crypto huge pain in the ass these days" - Crypto is the easiest thing in the world, I can move money in and out of books in sheer minutes and the fess are miniscule. And what mysterious crypto "list" are you referring to that you can be put on that you seem so worried about?

    "Everything legal" - It's NEVER been illegal to bet with an offshore bookmaker genius, it's only "illegal" to take wagers from certain places, and even then you need at least 5 people in the operation to break Federal statutes.

    "Guaranteed money is safe" - Read the fine print, these "legal" US sportsbook can confiscate your funds and close your accounts for just about any reason they want (including simply being a smart bettor). Conversely, I've been betting and playing poker regularly offshore since 1999, and NEVER had even a measly dollar lost or stolen from me, and while a lot of that is both due diligence (with the help of SBR's constant pulse of the industry) on my part and good luck, it also shows that if you're on top of things, your money was always as safe as it could relatively be offshore.

    "Enough books you can line shop and get a decent line"- These books are not real books, they are corporate recreational entertainment sites, which means if you make significant wagers, or actually treat it as a market, THEY WILL LIMIT YOU OR CLOSE YOUR ACCOUNT. There is not a single US book that a serious sports bettor is allowed to play at, only suckers are wanted. That's about as un-American (back when America used to represent free markets) as can be, which is fitting since most of these " legal sports books" you love so much are owned by foreign billionaire's and Larry Fink's banks through stock ownership.

    Have you ever played with any of the onshore sites? If not, then how can you be so confident that the declarations you are making are true? I've bolded the declarations that are not completely accurate. Of course there is some truth to it, but your blanket statements are not correct, at least at this point in time.
