Bet Phoenix no longer on SBR odds.

**Reload** · 03-05-11, 08:11 PM

Looks like JustBet has replaced them in the banner ads on top of SBR as well

**antifoil** · 03-05-11, 08:28 PM

yeah it appears sbr dropped them down to a B rating too since they stopped advertising here. there need to be a ranking calculator in the think tank so a person can tell a books true ranking if they are an ad buyer here. it could add in different factors to consider like slow pay, payment types, how quit do they put limits, etc. then spits out a true ranking without the sbr bump.

**Fishhead** · 03-05-11, 08:31 PM

Did BP decide not to advertise, or did SBR give them the boot?

**hhsilver** · 03-05-11, 08:58 PM

I don't think sbr lines has only advertisers. Matchbook is an example I think. There must be more to this.

**pokerplayer22** · 03-05-11, 09:39 PM

BP has been on the decline for the past year and I think the worst has yet to come

**Bill Dozer** · 03-05-11, 10:11 PM

Phoenix's line feed is expected to be available in our new SBRodds site or back as early as next week for anyone who wants to add them to their customized page. We are making some changes getting ready for the beta version.

BetPhoenix downgrade was over 2 weeks ago. They started March a B rated book. A book's status with SBR may or may not affect their decision to continue atop the forum. We don't always know and that is fine. We certainly select from the pool of top books when we add a sponsor.

Our BetPhoenix rating is B. Players can use the forum search for details. BetPhoenix | Phoenix

Have there been any posts about the new SBR? Would be curious to know what the features are to which we can look forward.

**Bill Dozer** · 03-05-11, 10:28 PM

I think it's a lot prettier. The biggest features are its error-catching, stability and ability to push all of our other things that use feeds. It can support future projects like SBR Spreadsheets, live third party scorebaords, and SBROdds Mobile.

There is one feature that we think will make people excited and eliminate the need to visit another site you currently use during game time. We are going to keep it under cover until the beta to see if there is a positive reaction. You are welcome to be a beta tester bookie!

When are these changes going to be happening?

**nyplayer33** · 03-05-11, 11:50 PM

**iceminers26** · 03-06-11, 12:01 AM

Sure, sign me up.

**Intuitive_Edge** · 03-06-11, 01:37 AM

best part of this site is the odds, update would be lovely

**donnyguru** · 03-06-11, 02:22 AM

SBR Lines works okay on the Dolphin browser, but an Android application would be top notch

**secretstash** · 03-06-11, 08:14 AM

Sign me up for beta test too

**Flight** · 03-06-11, 10:05 AM

Good to hear there's an upgrade coming! Thanks

**bigugly** · 03-06-11, 05:18 PM

I'm willing to check out the beta if you would like another tester.

**goblue12** · 03-07-11, 06:16 AM

Will any other books be added to SBROdds?

**Bill Dozer** · 03-07-11, 09:26 AM

We are always looking to add books, even ones that are not well regarded here but affect the market with their odds. Suggestions?

grande
catalina
delmar

**Ruifgalmeida** · 03-07-11, 09:40 AM

how about adding some eurobooks

**Justin7** · 03-07-11, 09:40 AM

I'd like to see Grande and Delmar also.

**barcelonafc** · 03-07-11, 09:47 AM

add parlaymakers lol

**brettels** · 03-07-11, 11:11 AM

Add some aussie books (sportsbet)

**Cookie Monster** · 03-07-11, 12:45 PM

I wonder why Carib odds are not listed. They are one of the SBR pro books, allow to cash SBR points... but no odds listed?

Now, if you want the lines that make most impact, carry betfair. Like it or not, they are very important.

And having listed Jazz lines three times (as looselines and ABC islands) is a waste. I also doubt many guys use Wsex anymore.

**WeinketoWarrick** · 03-07-11, 07:14 PM

SBR_JOHN, at least put Phoenix on the Odds page

I know you're pissed they cut off your advertising revenue, but there's no reason to completely remove them from the SBR Odds page. We've had enough complaints about SBR Odds not working correctly as it is, but now you remove a very common (and GOOD) out that a lot of visitors would like to see on the odds page while keeping shit books like BetUs on there?

The integrity of your original goal for this site is shaking its finger at your decision on this one, Dikembe-style.

I think Carib had an issue with their feed. The new SBRodds will be able to process changing feeds faster so we can try again.

We answered this earlier in the thread. When we get their feed in the new engine this week they will be available for you to add. Like you pointed out, we aim to make all the feeds available. Barring BP not allowing us to pull it due to being displeased with their status, they will be available soon.

Sportsbook.com

And thanks for the clarifications/info.

**Bill Dozer** · 03-07-11, 08:08 PM

Sportsbook.com is another. For those not afraid of high risk, they'll be able to add it to their personal my-books page.

**Sdotbold** · 03-07-11, 08:09 PM

Bill, I will be a beta tester if you need another one. let me know.

**Bill Dozer** · 03-07-11, 08:16 PM

Youre in. Thanks. Please send me a PM?

**HedgeHog** · 03-07-11, 08:16 PM

Heritage would be a great book to add to the line service too.
