    SBR aquires BookMakersReview.com(BMR)

    SBR is building a voting platform so that established members will control the ratings at BMR. Players can then contrast their own ratings against the SBR ratings.

    BMR will remain focused on the global and European markets. Upgrades to the website and forum will begin immediately.

    Not sure if this is good. They were updating their ratings much more often and for me the ratings were more trustworthy than here

    will pierluigi stay on to manage the site, or have you simply bought the domain from him?

    No. But G, his number one man will stay on. He has done a lot of the heavy lifting the last couple of years and we are glad to have him.

    it will be interesting if they get a popular forum to add their betpoint system too

    Sbr leader globally in sportsbook ratings . Of course some ratings could be off a notch or two like any other rating service no matter what the product is. Another tool for players to look at. Gather as much info as you can when posting up at a book, we all have different needs and goals.

    SBR ratings are usually pretty spot on when it comes to A ratings and F ratings

    It's usually the C- to B+ range where opinions seem to differ at times

    I hope this might mean SBR will swing back to being a bit more of a player advocate site as well. If they are getting more into rating books.

    haha your way off here bro, maybe for north american punters but no UK/european punters go to sbr....would imagine this is why they took them over so sbr can get a foot in the european market....
