    SBR moved into its new offices and sold a lot of stuff when leaving the old building. My guess is someone said they bought SBR's [old] office or our bought SBR furniture or something... Another forum guy might have heard wrong and got all excited. Not sure how Bookmaker would figure in.

    someone across the street posted he talked to cris and it wasn't them for sure i thought...

    and since i haven't read all the threads today about the "purchase"... i'm really hoping Bill's post above is correct.

    CRIS/Bookmaker is one of the oldest/largest/safest books on the planet. They're highly regard everywhere, or at least by anyone who has a clue.

    Yes, if you're a small bettor who doesn't bet openers or need high limits, they may not be useful to you, but that should in no way impact their overall reputation.

    “It is illegal for internet gambling enterprises to do business in Maryland, regardless of where the website operator is located,” said U.S. Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein. “We cannot allow foreign website operators to flout the law simply because their headquarters are based outside the country.”

    “These indictments are the direct result of impressive undercover investigative work by our agents, along with the close collaboration of our law enforcement partners here in Maryland,” said William Winter, Special Agent in Charge of ICE’s Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) in Baltimore. “The proceeds from illegal Internet gambling are often used to fuel organized crime and support criminal activity. ICE HSI will work diligently to uncover illicit transactions involving these types of financial crimes. Together, with our law enforcement partners, we will disrupt and dismantle organizations that commit these crimes, regardless of their location, whether here in the United States or abroad."


    WOW

    Why would they have accounts on US soil is beyond me...
