I just read this site and I'm leaning towards a post up shop because it's always trustable, reliable, licensed, and professional.

yep
I've never played at a credit shop or even know one, although I do have a credit facility at one of my books but have rarely used it
Personally I wouldn't be concerned about using one if they could match the best books for odds, limits and payouts but for those who have or may have a gambling problem they sound like a disaster just waiting to happen.

It really matters who will take your action & pay . Don't mistaken a post up shop with a creditable one. I use both.

Hareeba, you nailed it. I'm going to use only offshore post up shops because I'll get paid when I win. A lot of these local knucklehead credit shop fools doesn't have a lot of liquid cash asset. Whenever they have couple of guys that lost a huge amount of money and run away, the credit shop bookie is screwed because he can't pay up the other big winners. So usually these knucklehead credit shop kids had to disappear from this business forever.

There's a very good reason why post up shops do big business all over the world. And local credit shop kids are shooting themselves and are only able to do business locally, and can disappear all of a sudden at any given time.

No agenda. Just don't want anyone else to get screwed over by those local wannabe bookies running a stupid little credit shop.

Post up shop over credit shop anyday.
