Pokerstars sportsbook down

Sportsbook section has been down for 3 days now... It seems poker works fine and cashier section is ok too.

Still haven't settled my bets from Thursday night. On race week no less. WTF?!

shoddy ...American books just can't be trusted

I'm not sure they really are Americans behind it now.

But almost any book that I know of them being involved in seems problematic in one way or another.

Didn't they merge with Fluttergroup? Seems strange to me that something with such backing would been down more than half a day!

Yes. Plus they have SkyBook in UK and Foxbet in USA and Betstars in Europe and Sportsbet in Australia (after they sent the #1 book Crownbet out of business in under a year of ownership)

I think they may have originally been Canadian, not American btw.

Interesting. Seemed like they had a great reputation for a long long time and then not so much with new owners. They launched their sportsbook in the UK as Betstars only to give it the proper name later. I haven't had any issues with them personally, until this, but it's all sorted now.
