I really hope this book does well.... They came out of nowhere (i think used to be affiliated with Jazz?? def not a good thing)... But really, how can people be saying they should be rated higher then a C?? Has anyone got paid 5 figures from these guys yet?

**Counterfeit Cash** · 05-16-11, 12:14 AM

I like them as well, i'll be depositing come football season

**midnight777** · 05-16-11, 08:15 AM

oh well.. maybe 1 day I can hit a 8 team parlay.... who knows...

**robmpink** · 05-16-11, 04:37 PM

Here is my take. You can't play horses there at all with the cap they have. I addressed this w/ Jon and he said at this time it isn't their primary focus. Fair enough. The dgs casino they have, just like most books and sbr is the tightest I've ever played at. I'm talking over 25 books. I'm also talking spread out over a month, nothing but losses playing low limit hands. This isn't normal.

Customer service is great, betting options are great. Bonuses are great. Also, if something went amiss , it is good to know this Jon fellow will give you the time of day.

I like them as well also

**stc9357** · 05-16-11, 05:02 PM

Tried them out for a little bit but since I can't parlay in tennis and there are no handicaps it wasn't the book for me otherwise its a very good book.

Agree, I wouldn't recommend playing in the casino but at the same time, I wouldn't recommend playing any online casino; I learned this the hard way the other night playing stud poker in the B.I. casino to the tune of $1300.

Aside from that minor area I like this book a lot and feel they are an honest group, heck I even caught a huge prop error they had last night on a D. Wade prop and reported it. If it would have been a book I don't care for like a 5Dimes, I would have just pounded it and walked away with the winnings, but like I said this book has been nothing but top notch and even though I didn't get anything out of reporting it, I want to keep a good relationship with this book because I feel they are on the rise.

**Foosball Champ** · 05-17-11, 01:02 AM

I have deposited twice and lost my money right away. But I would like to see if they anyone has to say anything bad.

**spartangreen** · 05-17-11, 06:40 AM

I signed up, have not deposited yet, but i get 3/4 calls a week from them wanting me to deposit.

Miners, I wouldn't recommend playing in a casino long term either, but I like it and do. I only play let it ride. I didn't play a single session their, lost and just bitch. I've played a lot since they opened and they by far have been the toughest. I'm a retard first off because they have the odds set at 200-1 for a royal, when it should be 1000-1. On top of that, you can't even win. If I thought it was comparable to the other books I played with, which had the same dgs software i wouldn't complain, but this is brutal.

Besides that, they are great.

SBR need to give them atleast a "B" rating

wow. i offered them my deposit and they refused - as i am a non-us resident. they had a solid start with good publicity but now it seems are slipping into betphoenix/americans only deadend.

**Betislands** · 05-17-11, 09:03 PM

Hi Austin,

We are not currently accepting players from certain regions we will do so in the near future , I do not think that makes us a lesser shop it is a matter of logistics and banking when I do something I want to do it right and be able to offer the same experience to players from other regions as we do to American clients.

I apologize if this has caused you any hassle.

Regarding our calls I have stated it before if you do not wish to receive phone calls from us just shoot us and email or do so when signing up.

Cheers!

Jon

**midnight777** · 05-20-11, 08:07 AM

i wish they would have the rollling wager option.

**Betislands** · 05-20-11, 11:22 AM

Hi Michael,

We do offer that , contact us on live chat and just request it and your account will be adjusted.

Enjoy !

Jon

**magynuck** · 05-20-11, 11:42 AM

so far my experience has been positive

**obamaismyuncle** · 05-20-11, 11:51 AM

I was paid via MGGGGGG by betislands on Tuesday, have info in my email approx 2 hours after requesting the withdrawal...was my second payout here, all experiences have been positive thus far,,

**horsiehung** · 05-22-11, 07:13 AM

there are enough very smart players n here to create a position\prediction paper

**ringemup** · 05-22-11, 08:39 AM

wont try any book out unless they are on the recommended list.

**boondoggle** · 05-23-11, 12:08 AM

What do they offer that TheGreek, BetJam, and BookMaker do not have? NOTHING. Why then would anyone deposit to this new and untested site when you consider the betting environment for USA bettors.

**Foosball Champ** · 05-23-11, 12:55 AM

I really like this book, I have only heard good things about them

I'm hoping they will be -107 for football,or slightly better teaser pay offs.That would get a deposit from me.

**Mudcat** · 05-23-11, 10:38 AM

My experience there has been pretty good but I haven't had a payout yet

**Betislands** · 05-23-11, 11:53 AM

Hi Guys,

That would be awesome! Been with BI the past few weeks and enjoy it very much.

**dukeman** · 05-23-11, 12:07 PM

hope u hit them up real big lost my freeplay

**Legions36** · 05-23-11, 12:10 PM

Damn talk about great book and fast payouts, sh-it i requested this at 12pm and got my info to pick it up by 12:30pm same day only a half hour. I love this book so far great everything there and fast payouts and great customer service. SBR needs to upgrade them real quick as they have really impressed me. Also not to mention it was free to withdraw.

**Betislands** · 05-23-11, 12:30 PM

Hi guys,

Thanks for the feedback and I am glad you guys are enjoying the shop. As far as our rating we should leave that up to SBR to determine if we continue do things well people will take notice.

PIMIKE, Offering a high freeplay bonus and a dimeline needs a rollover that can even the odds out , if you are looking for something in particular contact me and we will talk about it.

Cheers!!
