    BUT i heard legends was behind the boston marathon attack.

    i would be VERY afraid that they have personal information of SBR posters!
    It was just a distraction so they could steal everybody's money.

      First. you are making fun a national tragedy.
      Second. Legends has never stealed money from anyone, and I am pretty sure players will be able to see their funds in another SB.

        you guys that are under the impression that these forum owners know what the fukk is going on, are being completely ignorant, unfortunately... sbr doesnt have shit to do with where legends accts go, nor did they have any say so with a book cutting ties with moneybookers

        shaunovery, they cut legends money the day the shit hit the fan...
        common ray you're smarter than this, gueye.

        of course sbr knows which book, they're negotiating this deal and getting a cut.

        business is business, raydog

              For what its worth I have been in contact with some people down there and as of right now there is no deal in place with any book and it looks like they are going to remain in business. Of course it could change but all the top books we would want them to transfer accounts to are not involved.

                Good post, Bang. I wonder if SBR will break the news, or report on what's already known well after it's happened? SBR does not seem to be in the business of news if there's advertising implications.

                    Im not sure what your post has to do with mine, Ray. I don't believe SBR owns Legends, BO, BI or any other book. But if you don't think SBR is ushering this deal, you're not who I thought you were, Dammit!

                      What we have here is...deafening silence by our "watchdog" in the face of a close confluence of a few occurrences (one of them quite major) affecting access to our money...

                      if SBR brass really "know nothing" (brings to mind Sgt. Schultz on Hogan's Heroes) of any substance... then they should at least come on and tell us that...rather than let us twist in the wind while getting increasingly suspicious about whose interests SBR really is keen to protect...

                      no contributions of any import for the last 12 hours to this thread...combined with closing down a thread started to discuss Bodog.ca's immediate removal of a major payment method (i was hoping to eventually get their rep to chime in on that...how does closing down that thread help anyone?)...

                          i was joking, kraken...(actually that dumbass obamais really thinks sbr owns bol though ) but no, i dont believe sbr has anything to do with anything in this case... just like they had nothing to do with bj and greeks deal to heritage... why would sbr have anything to do with where legends accts. get transferred? they do not.

                          bangthebook, its going to be pretty tough for legends to stay in business without a license...

                            what do you want them to do...post that they are as clueless as everyone else is? for those who think sbr has some sort of hand in what legends is doing, they do not.... there will be some posters who know the deal before sbr...jaysus, legends isnt like BI ... a very very small % of its players are from this forum...when they know something, they will let the forum know...legends has a million other things to worry about right now than a gambling forum and its members... goddamn, you kids need your hands held every step you take around here?

                              What I don't understand is how a thriving book like Legends can't settle accounts after they lost their gaming license. Did the Panamanian government raided their coffers and took all their money away? Just because they don't have a gaming licence anymore it doesn't mean they don't have money to settle accounts.

                                Ray,

                                I still find it entertaining that you believe SBR knows as much as any poster here, and as you hinted, they might even know a little less. Legends would have been demolished if it weren't for forums like SBR. There's nothing about this book that makes it competitive. No overnight lines, late lines, higher than industry averages for W/D's, no reduced juice, and low limits. SBR helped to build Legends and any future deal is likely to include, to some degree, SBR. If you had the Greek, pinnacle, 5dimes, Youwager--JJ's favorite,Bet Islands--obv before they went bust, Heritage, and Legends...which book would you have tossed out of the picture first? If you don't answer Legends, you're dumb as nails. Then throw in all of the other books and it's a miracle this book saw any action. You really should give SBR a little more credit.

                                    yes, why not? if it's true...how is telling us just that honestlly (as a start...along with describing a few advocacy initiatives they're considering toward assuring that our funds are indeed handled properly...etc. etc....get the idea...at least attempting to act as if you really are a player advocate--even if only for players who signed up under your affiliate bannership)...

                                    how is communicating honestly...worse than the current status quo=**crickets**...?

                                        .. they have over 14k players... you think they got them all from sbr ... you guys are killing me...

                                        why would legends even consult with sbr about anything right now? can anyone answer that? sbr is 100% useless to them right now

                                          I sent 4 friends there as referrals. Even after they gave Ethan my info as the referral, Ethan asked if they saw their rating at Sbr. You are underestimating the numbers from here

                                            you realize your name is one of those under sbr's sheet... ethan got your name and saw you are from sbr...im not sure what that has to do with anything...sbr, in the past, was one of the top ratings sites...i think you are over complicating things a bit...

                                            still not sure why anyone thinks sbr has anything to do with legends transferring players to another book... but it doesnt matter...hopefully, everyone will have some answers sometime tomorrow

                                              14k does not mean chit. SBR and the forums built this book...it's so obvious. How many posters joined Legends sponsored contests over the years and created an account? How many posters used Legends as their go pro book, because they had already had accounts with reputable books? Legends and SBR are interconnected and Legends couldn't have survived without the forums. Maybe now they can, because there's only a few left standing, but back then, books like Legends had zero chance of increasing their market share by outcompeting the heavyweights.

                                                Nope, when I signed up at Legends. It was not thru Sbr. My point was that Ethan, and the rest of the clerks were trained to ask if it was Sbr. They had huge numbers from here. I am not one of them.

                                                Just was pointing out that you were under estimating the numbers from Sbr at Legends

                                                    sounds like you guys got it all figured out... ... h.e. what you think you know and what is fact, are worlds apart, but i like you and dont want to argue about trivial stuff(truth be told, legends could have survived off its credit side alone, but i know you dont want to hear any facts, so ill put it to rest)...hope we all get some answers tomorrow and personally, i hope legends gets out of the jam and somehow gets back to business...its doubtful and wishful thinking, but they were one of the well run joints that took care of players.

                                                          I will miss Legends. They paid without a hitch, had nice bonuses and the loyalty program was a nice perk

                                                          However, I will not miss their fukkkking shitty Mlb lines

                                                                So what happens if no book wants to take on Legends players?
                                                                Will all funds be lost, or are there more alternatives for Legends?
