    Great post. To this day I still have not seen a US bookie allow for 'in play cashout' . This is a must have when betting soccer. Also, I agree I wouldn't house a large balance here untill I can see if they are paying the players. However as we all know from past experiences...... every book pays until they dont.....and thus playing in the offshore world is a gamble in itself. I still feel good about keeping a decent balance in there. John has answered all of my questions and concerns.

    Finally,

    As per their twitter...

    Since the rebranding, bb.com has paid me out very fast via btc. It seems like they are very professional regarding their players and current promotions/giveaways. Since then, I've done more reaserch and have found a few more threads on btc talk forums regarding bb.com after the rebranding. Seems like they are gaining a bigger influence within the US market. This is great news for me as I have a decent sized balance there. They are also running a 150 bitcoin giveaway for the 2016 2017 epl season. You can check it out here... http://betballer.com/eplgiveaway . Also, I didnt realize I posted a referral link in the post above as I just copied and pasted the link from their twitter. I hope this book continues to make positive strides.

    Nice promo. Like the simple terms and fact they'll still give a 10,000 euro prize for the closest if no one picks the top 8 in correct order.

    Not surprised John would put up a nice genuine promo like that. He seems like a genuine nice guy.

    Only things that worry me a little is that 'nice guys' often dont seem to last in this industry, and if they really are able to service US players ongoing.

    I think aslong as the US players they accept are 'btc players' they shouldn't have a problem. I find it refreshing to have to deal with 'john' rather than a guy like 'tony williams' (5D). I understand your point tho it seems like the true good guys in the industry don't last.

    Question to Optional,

    How long does it take sbr to rate/grade certain shops? Must these sites be in business 'x' years before sbr investigates them? There's some shops I see rated 'F' by sbr. Was wondering if those 'F' books got rated then why does a book like Betballer not get a grading? Ive seen nothing but good reports from them thus far. Just curious to see how sbr goes about rating/grading certain sportsbooks.

    I'm not involved in the ratings part so can't really say for sure but think it takes a history and SBR being confident about having enough info to list a new book as C- or better, whereas it probably takes a lot less time and info to be initially listed lower than that, if you get what I mean.

    Pretty sure I have given John the right email to contact management about it himself in the past btw.

    Ok that makes sense. I was just curious as to how some shops are graded and why this one was not. I hope this book continues to make strides servicing the US market. They have been very professional thus far.
