As you may have noticed, the forum was offline for a period. We identified a security incident to Sportsbook Review Forum and took the site offline as a containment step while we investigated.
We wanted to make sure the system and site were restored and secured before bringing things back online and you will see that we are requiring all forum users to reset their password as a precautionary step.
If you have any questions, our moderators are around and happy to help where they can.
I personally wouldn't get closer to them.
They have a terrible customer service, and "issues" with their processors - don't be surprised if they don't pay you up.

Correct, and that's why they won't pay you if you make big $$$ with them.
I would stay away, I won't be surprised if later those who don't heed the warnings find themselves with same story I had to go through and get paid $0.00 from this website.

What I can't figure is what market they're aiming at. Their juice is off the charts nuts - look at these prices, for Arsenal-Stoke, AH-1:
That's 1.5% juice for the Asians and Pinnacle, on the Premier League (probably the biggest sportsbetting market on the planet). There's some seriously huge volume there, and ultra-efficient markets - yet the Russians have even lower juice, 1.0%. Hrrrm.
Even odder, Pinnacle/Asians sensibly price other sports and sub-markets at greater juice, where lower volume means they can't get as accurate prices. Even Marathon do the same, to a lesser degree. But 1xbet don't, it's just 1% all over the place.
For example, the tennis final in Chennai today, Wawrinka vs Bedene, 5.5game hcap:
1xbet 1.0%
Mara 1.5%
Pinny 2.5%
IBC 5.0%
OK maybe IBC isn't so important, the Asian books barely take anything on tennis. But do 1xbet? Doubt it.
One thought: could they be trying to out-compete the Asians/pinny by running at zero profit for a period? It's certainly one way to attract a lot of volume quickly.
