    Security of Asian bookies

    How possible is that all asian bookies would crash in the same time? Would it help at all if you decentralized your funds between different asian bookies like Sbobet, 188bet, IBCbet, 12bet etc OR for example if IBCBet crashed down, would all other asian bookies crash down as well?

    No reason to think so.

    Bear in mind that SBOBet and 188Bet are actually UK/Isle of Man owned but cater, primarily to the Asian market.

    Probably more solid than anyone in the industry.

    They know what they are doing, and they cater to markets prone to gambling and enjoying rising incomes. I would buy their stock if i could (by the way - are they traded anywhere?)

    Are believe they are safer than most european bookies.
    But it's always wise to split your money in a few accounts.

    188BET recently introduced a free bet for European players.
    Registered in England,small free bets for EU/UK clients,
    doesn't sound to me like an asian book.
