    bigballer891 - "So according to raydog sbr was "gullible" enough to take a chance on BI and its not their fault for them running off with player funds because they never had reason to doubt them until it was too late. Either you are applying for a job with SBR or you just arent capable of processing information and making sense of it, if that is your conclusion of the BI situation."

    Agree.

    raydog is a shill, connected to BI/EZ, or just an idiot. Or all of those.

    i realize a bailout is important to sbr and to the players...you guys are also extremely exaggerating your presence in the offshore community... those players who are long term winners, they arent going anywhere and bi wasnt their only out... how do sportsbooks ever make money, you ask? not by taking on 1.5mil in debt with a good portion of that being players they would label sharp...9 months to reach roll over? lolzz unreal... there arent 4-5 reputable books in cr that give a shit about this ordeal in the first place...real sportsbooks arent taking near as much heat as you guys think and the "industry" will survive a half ass book stiffing a few hundred guys...

    good luck guys, ill keep hoping something happens...obviously, for most of you, this is the first time and i can understand some of the reaction...the conspiracy theories and all that come with every shitty incident as well...this sucks, but this doesnt even sniff some of the bad shit that has happened in the past.
    ray you ever taken the side of a player pal?



    it's no surprise that you always jump in on topics like these.

    as a bookie, you have "fuk the player" ingrained in your DNA.

    not real sure what you mean spanks...players got fukked, where did i say they didnt? i think since they dont have any way to speak with bi, they are throwing more blame sbrs way and thats really pretty stupid since they are depending on sbr to help them with a bail out...but thats okay, i understand their frustrations...

    i guess you dont read any of the bol threads or past bodog threads where i have bashed them...of course not...you think i have a "fuk the player' attitude? i wouldnt be in business if i had that attitude...there is always someone else to go to...

    what i added to that post that you missed was the point i was making all along and made in the longer post before... here it is...

    "this got off track...the point was that bi wasnt what people here thought it was and its going out of business isnt doing to the industry what an actual sportsbook with all the departments and inside workings of a sportsbook would have done... that was the point." ...

    I agree with raydog that all the posts about how the BetIslands fiasco will bring down the industry are ridiculous...if anything this shitstorm will just scare the penetrate out of anyone even thinking of leaving the top tier books and depositing at more questionable books like BI

    BTW have any of you guys really looked at those debt sheets and seen just how much they owed SBR employees alone? That list is a mile fukin long! Every person that ever worked for SBR and both their grandmothers were owed at least 5 figures by BetIslands, no wonder they kept their mouth shut and continued shilling, they were just prayin BetIslands would get enough new deposits from SBR members to pay them somethin before closin the doors

    For a guy who says he didn't lose any money from the betislands theft you sure spend a lot of time in these threads.

    To be honest I was wrong in that post, I was referring to the SBRMod2 category of the sheets published by other sites, but after looking at the sheets again rather than a list of mods owed money its just a list of players referred by SBR mods that got stiffed for 240k
