    Sam,
    You should have told them to Fuk off the first time they called you.

    I lost at BI once... deposited 300 (maybe 500) very early-on

    Made 3 or 4 $30 plays to get a feel and see what they offered

    I liked very little about them - (from memory) late lines was the main reason

    Scalped Out the balance on a 4% scalp

    This sounds right. Although maybe Sammy only lost with betislands? Who knows... I haven't used BetIslands in months and they haven't called or sent any emails. They don't want me back.

    Obviously. Most gamblers are assumed to be losers until proven otherwise.

    75% of SBR has never taken a payout from a sportsbook.

    They seem to be begging for money

    Not a good sign

    I would never ever play at books that beg me to post up

    I told them when I signed up to put me on the do not call list and they have never called

    Expect cold calls this time of year

    Doesn't Bookmaker call all of the time and beg for money?

    Would you say the same thing about them?

    Difference is I told Betislands to never call and they listened.

    I told Bookmaker not to call and they(Bookmaker/DSI) still do.

    Cold calling in August proves nothing about a book's stability because the US facing book with the deepest pockets does it non-stop.

    Here's an idea...ask them to take you off their contact list before bitching. Pretty sure they'll oblige.

    There the best book out there. I don't the phone calls show anything other then that they want deposits. Whats wrong with that? They pay faster then any other book - thats what important here.

    They do pay, but can u afford to play against a rigged casino?

    I cant, have to get a bank loan to play football, brutal.
    Online casinos= cocaine of online gambling. Don't fall for the bait or you will get caught in the snare.

    Not smart to give any book your personal mobile number. Asking for trouble and just wait until they figure out to spam text you. It will never end.
