    AmericasBookie (SBR Rated D+) is part of the Apex family of books (aka: A Robbie M\*\*\*\*\*\* book). As some of the old timers around here already know Apex books have had their fair share of problems in regards to complaints however, their hasn't been a major complaint/dispute that I'm aware of since I believe 2005 range.

    Does SBRJohn have to watch his back while in Costa Rica??

    Guy probably has 32 disgruntled bookmakers that want to rough him up for throwing a monkey wrench in their plans...

    Hi Guys,

    SBR John, does not have to watch his back when in CR, as the scam books know they are scams, and do not need any extra attention, by threatening people, who are just exposing the truth, SBR provides a good service, and is a great starting place, when looking for a sportsbook.

    I agree there are many books better then Americasbookie.com, but are just as many or more worse then us.

    If you take the time to search the forum, you will find, we deal with a smaller recreational type of player, and we have not had any problems with payouts, since our inception in 2005. Plus have work closely with Justin, of SBR, to resolve any old issues as well.

    Thank you for sharing these comments with us all, Tis appreciated

    The mirror fact that your allowing Justin to work closely with you operations it does give me a bit more confidence to play there in regards of being treated a little more fairly nowadays.

    BTW, You mentioned above that their were many other books worse then your establishment. Might I ask who you feel in your opinion are worse than your establishment sir?

    Big Boy Dan,

    A few examples, of sportsbook rated the same as us, that are allot worse then us in my option are.

    Sportsbook.com
    WSEX.com
    Jazzsports.com
    BetRoyal.com
    WagerWeb.com

    All these books have many many threads about No pay or Slow pay, or Bonuses being taken away .... AmericasBookie.com has been online since 2005 ..6 years without, any real problems, is a pretty good track record.

    Risk vs reward. Would you rather play -EV at an A Book or +EV at a C Book?

    What do you mean? Lines are the same at most/all books..Id rather play at a site where i know ill get paid if i win a few k, as opposed to going on a hot streak and having it be monopoly money. Just my opinion.

    Not saying to play at D-/F Books. However some average decent paying Books may have 105 lines, better teaser prices, beatable props etc... I'll take them over say A+ Legends that is ultra safe but extremely difficult to beat.

    Taxer, that was Robby with Apex.

    These guys are trying to do right. They paid/paying all defunct Apex accounts, as they did mine.

    Thanks for the post.

    Feel free to explain the history a bit if you like. I seem to remember another book handling the processing for AB or maybe fully under an umbrella.

    Hi risk books tend to have much higher bonuses. The game is to arb/bonuswhore, shill for the book heavily on SBR, pick off the low hanging fruit, cash out, and leave the rest of the "suckers" to fend for themselves.

    I don't remember. I think this is an Apex reincarnation. Bookie are you Robbie M?

    Why don't you just tell us some of the details about the book? What were you before AB? Keep in mind guys dont expect you to say you are a Bodog or BetCRIS. Are you partners with AK?

    Hi John,

    A few people use this account to reply to threads, on this forum, but in this case I am following up on this thread.. Robbie M.

    Start a new thread with your questions, about Americas Bookie or any of other sportsbooks part of the Rdg Corp. and I will do my best to answer them. Plus if poster wants to ask a few, they can jump in.

    Your 1st few questions.
    1. I think this is an Apex reincarnation: NO, apex closed may 2004.. The Americas Bookie Brand started Jan 1st 2008,
    2. What were you before AB? : Americas Bookie, is just one sportsbook, that is part of the RDG Corp, the 1st sportsbook was Bet33, and opened in May 2005..
    3. Are you partners with AK? : NO

    AB:

    According to BigBet, and I've read elsewhere too, you're making good with the old Apex clients. So obviously there is some direct connection to that former stiff joint. While I think it's great you're correcting a past wrong, why aren't you owning up to any involvement there?

    BigBet:

    Did you have to complete a RO on what is essentially your own money? Have you requested any withdrawals from AB to date?


    Thanks in advance to both, HH
