    Best Book left for US Players? Many of us need to get set up at a GOOD shop.

    After getting burned by BetIslands the question is where is the best place to post up a new account of the companies that "seem" to be reliable?

    Many of us former BetIslands victims will be first time depositors so the question becomes when you combine new customer promos with any existing bonuses on top of their already existing advantages, which book stands out for US Players?

    Legends
    BetDSI
    BookMaker
    Heritage

    All seem to have good reputations but which one could be most friendly long term as the new 'home' of the disenfranchised BI refugee?

    Play at all you listed with the exception of heritage which I just quit because of their rediculous teaser odds.Have had no problems with any of them and been with all alot of years.Each one has it's own benefits.

    I thought Heritage actually had decent teaser odds?

    http://www.heritagesports.eu/heritage_teasers.asp

    Or does this 'premium' rule mess up all the decent opportunities?

    I'm a bit of a teaser player so that's distressing news if their teaser system is crap.

    I think they treat everybody differently but when I crossed over the premium they charged me .30 whereas DSI charges me .10 on the same bet.Granted Heritage has the lines up much earlier,personally I can't justify the juice but to each his own.

    i am going to move off shore, hire a web developer, make a book, and advertise on sbr. this will get me a good rating then when sbr has "determined" i am a "safe" book, then fail to continue examining my book, i can take all the money.


    really all you need is a web developer, enough start up capital to advertise on sbr, then run a ponzi scheme when people start depositing. delay payments at the beginning so you can give time for the ponzi to work because we know sbr doesn't downgrade rating for these issues after advertising. then flea with the money when you are satisfied you have enough.

    I lost almost $4,000 in the BI/SBR scam and I will only be playing at Heritage from now on... lucky to have received an account when BetJam closed to US players.

    I had an account with greek and betjamaica. I never deposited anything in either one of them and a year later I signed up to heritage account through their website. They called me while I was driving and asked for the account number that I had at greek and I said I wasn't able to give them that information right now, because I wasn't near a computer. They still gave me the account and they never asked me about greek again.

    Heritage has their own system that charges based on the numbers you are crossing.
