              Agreed, but Legendz was one now we are posting in this thread. Sad state of this industry. Stupid to keep 5 figs in any book, let alone 5k.


              I just realized I said I wouldn't even read or respond to this thread anymore. The joke is on me. Don't listen to a word I say. Not that I think anyone does anyway.

                Update: Pending withdrawal amount from Legends that was missing from my initial Wagerweb balance has been added in there now. So don't fret, dudes. Looks like they are making good on it.

                  It would seem spot on to raise wagerwebs rating since the reccommedation of legendz was so high.

                  So either they were wrong about Legendz, or wrong about wagerweb. We have one choice but to hope they were wrong about Wagerweb now.

                    How is this guy Rob still allowed on this site? He has already admiitted to getting bonuses for kissing BI'S behind, now
                    if he says he didnt know, fine, but why not shut up then? Why start talking like the all mighty for every book situation there is.

                    Im not sure if he realizes his endorsements may have cost people alot of money. If you wanna bet go head, but leave these fine people alone

                      Whatever happened to the move to an "A" rated book with 2x rollover...

                      guess we didn't see the word "hole" imbedded in the fine print after the "A"...

                      BI v2.0 indeed!
                      i somehow felt the urge to run this post--originally submitted shortly after we first learned that "what we wuz promised isn't what we gots" (and even before robmpink ever entered this thread)--again!

                      Agree with the post right above this one...that he should follow the lead of his avatar and "stifle himself" next time he wants to chime in on any book-related issues.

                                thats not good, that means many posters will never meet the roll over req, if they want to limit people then there should be no roll over req

                                i agree, thats fuking pathetic

                                    so they don't make a feed available to line services and they don't let you view lines without logging in? Is there a way of looking at the lines without having an account?

                                      Let me answer your inquiry Mr. Puss ghost. I received deposit bonuses from BI. Probably the same most squares got.I didn't make up one story about BI. They treated me well so I backed them up in threads. Coincidentally, the only two books that I've defended were BI and WW . I've commented on WW for 7 or so years. People know this. Do you think there could be a chance I really liked these 2 books? So no puss ghost I don't make every book situation my business.

                                      I'm sure I don't sway people to play anywhere and to be quite frank I don't give a crap if people play at the books I like. I don't benefit from it. Lastly, you fool, by me endorsing WW for the last 7 years has what bearing on these people who got f'd by Legendz? The accounts were transferred over. No deposit. SO whether I say good or bad they have to roll shit over to withdraw.

                                      Yeah, my endorsements cost people money. Go f yourself.

                                        Geez, hard feelings? Are you scared some of the jibber jabber I've posted over the years may hold some validity with WW? I guess time will tell. Don't be scared.

                                        Oh, once again, balances were transferred. What solicitation am I doing? Maybe you are interested in gay club kids.

                                          this is what's going to make even a small RO painful here...dreadfully more inconvenient than it need be...

                                          SBR could play a role in the improvement of this:

                                          Sports betting and handicapping forum: discuss picks, odds, and predictions for upcoming games and results on latest bets.

                                                  How did you get a dimeline at Legends when they've never had it?

Probably the same most squares got.I didn't make up one story about BI. They treated me well so I backed them up in threads. Coincidentally, the only two books that I've defended were BI and WW . I've commented on WW for 7 or so years. People know this. Do you think there could be a chance I really liked these 2 books? So no puss ghost I don't make every book situation my business.

                                                        I'm sure I don't sway people to play anywhere and to be quite frank I don't give a crap if people play at the books I like. I don't benefit from it. Lastly, you fool, by me endorsing WW for the last 7 years has what bearing on these people who got f'd by Legendz? The accounts were transferred over. No deposit. SO whether I say good or bad they have to roll shit over to withdraw.

                                                        Yeah, my endorsements cost people money. Go f yourself.
                                                        But people want to express their concerns and feelings about a book, and you never let them. You show up in threads trying to pretend to be the voice of reason, but you really have a biasedness towards one or other books.

                                                        Let people have their say without arguing with them

                                                          Mt, you seem to be less aggressive with this reply. I haven't argued with many people about this. Its not like I clowned every person or even 1/8th of the people who dislike WW. I apologize if the only two book situations you recall is BI and WW, which I was and am a supporter. I do appreciate your 3 posts here being directly linked to me.

                                                              I can take some of the blame for my situation here. I only used Legends at football season. In hindsight, it was stupid of me to leave my balance in there in the offseason, given that their baseball lines sucked.

                                                              But, I do have to say Sports Book Review is on record as shills for the industry, fukking players for a little bit of cash. Nothing but a whore. Thanks for advocating for the players interest!

                                                                to be honest, Rob, ANY additional book is an asset as long as 1) they pay (which it seems they do)...AND...
                                                                they list their lines on an odds-comparison hub such as http://www.sbrforum.com/betting-odds/ (which it seems they WON'T)...

                                                                they--just like BetRev--have a business model centred on attracting peoples's $ with the lure of large $-matching &/or free-play bonuses...which lock the player into large ROR...then holding the player "captive" to their (generally-crappy vs. 10-cent books like 5dimes) lines...

                                                                the simple act of cooperating with a price-comparison hub would allow the smart player to relax and whittle down the ROR one or two value plays at a time (cuz a book with 20-cent GENERALLY-crappy odds will usually have at least one or two good SPECIFIC "sore thumb" price every day)...

                                                                conversely, books that don't cooperate with hubs, don't want smart line-shopping players carefully and methodically whittling down their ROR...they want the player basically imprisoned to their lines...repeatedly taking sub-optimal odds to just "clear the damn ROR"...

                                                                Legends prices were generally crappy...but because they were always easily veiwable and comparable with other books a player might have...i found myself hitting them for about 5 plays a week...I didn't have to chain myself to their site to do so...just notice a bargain on the hub...clikked the top of the column (which brings me to book i want WHEN i want it)...then put on my play at the price I WANT...then out again and back to the hub to to hunt down the best value on the next play I'm interested in...

                                                                Good books aren't afraid to have their lines compared side-by-side with others

                                                                WW inherited the account balances of Legends...how about they also inherit their "column" on SBR "live odds"..
                                                                .

                                                                This would move this book, in my estimation...from use-LESS to use-FUL

                                                                ______________

                                                                You asked for specific constructive commentary about WW...I think the above qualifies

                                                                  they list their lines on an odds-comparison hub such as http://www.sbrforum.com/betting-odds/ (which it seems they WON'T)...

                                                                  they--just like BetRev--have a business model centred on attracting peoples's $ with the lure of large $-matching &/or free-play bonuses...which lock the player into large ROR...then holding the player "captive" to their (generally-crappy vs. 10-cent books like 5dimes) lines...

                                                                  the simple act of cooperating with a price-comparison hub would allow the smart player to relax and whittle down the ROR one or two value plays at a time (cuz a book with 20-cent GENERALLY-crappy odds will usually have at least one or two good SPECIFIC "sore thumb" price every day)...

                                                                  conversely, books that don't cooperate with hubs, don't want smart line-shopping players carefully and methodically whittling down their ROR...they want the player basically imprisoned to their lines...repeatedly taking sub-optimal odds to just "clear the damn ROR"...

                                                                  Legends prices were generally crappy...but because they were always easily veiwable and comparable with other books a player might have...i found myself hitting them for about 5 plays a week...I didn't have to chain myself to their site to do so...just notice a bargain on the hub...clikked the top of the column (which brings me to book i want WHEN i want it)...then put on my play at the price I WANT...then out again and back to the hub to to hunt down the best value on the next play I'm interested in...

                                                                  Good books aren't afraid to have their lines compared side-by-side with others

                                                                  WW inherited the account balances of Legends...how about they also inherit their "column" on SBR "live odds"..
                                                                  .

                                                                  This would move this book, in my estimation...from use-LESS to use-FUL

                                                                  ______________

                                                                  Fit, you for one seem to be confused with me. Never once did I say WW has great odds. I've gone harsh insult to harsh insult with posters here about WW. I'm not trying to persuade anyone from what they do. Just trying to see what experiences people have had since this event. Even if there is 100% negative feedback I'll still play there. Just curious if some people feel differently to the majority neg feedback over the years.

                                                                        and for those who like large % bonuses (and don't mind being forced to make all their required purchases at their one shop)...I suppose I'd consider it right along with BetRev and all the other less-than-A-rated books the amazing "touchback" covers in post #4 here:
