    I use the sportbook SIA based out of Canada and live in California and was wondering if their was a difference between a book based in Europe or a book based out of Costa Rica.

    It's not really based in Canada, it's based in the Kahnawake Indian Reservation--which is in Canada. So you have no recourse to Canadian courts, and every bit as much crooked stuff has happened there as has happened in Costa Rica. See, for example, the "60 Minutes" report on the UltimateBet scandal.

        Not so much, both can be good or both can be bad with hardly anything stops them from being shady if they want to be.

          UK books are subject to tight regulation and as safe as any in the world, along with those in Australia which are similarly regulated under government supervision.

                "offshore" is a relative term

                Canada is offshore to most of the world

                    I think it makes no difference the locale. I always look to the ratings here at SBR and also to long term posters for their insight.
