How have the other members of the Sportsbook.com family been behaving?

Yup, no changes there. Hollywood is probably your safest out since they have better email customer service than most of the other ones. I have had no problems with Linesmaker either. They pay VERY quickly.

BetUSA (B-) works well for me.

I haven't heard anything new roaming out there that you haven't probably read already Peep. Also, I don't know how up to date this thread is but it hopefully will give everyone a better grasp of how the jazzette family of books are structured.

So what the situation with ownership and being to play at multiple books?

From what I understand:

Sportsbook.com is now winunited for non-US.
Linesmaker, Hollywood and BetUSA have independent management making them slightly safer.
Sportsbetting, Win4Real and Racebook are no longer Jazette but some other management?

Anything other notes to add anyone?

I don't know the updated info on this entire family of books at this time sir. As you can see in that thread from years ago it was pretty perplexing to the point where I had to defer to Mr.Dozer to explain the structuring. Hopefully he can better assist everyone with this subject once again as I'm still in the dark with it seeing I've only been back here at SBR during my second tenure for less than a month.

What are the rules with having 2+ acounts at the skins.

Is there a link/explanation to their policy on their website/anywhere

skrtelfan · 10-03-11, 06:37 AM

They explicitly told me and others that it was ok to have multiple accounts in the skins and then claimed "multi-account abuse." You can't trust crooks.

Peep · 10-03-11, 01:45 PM

They are funny with multiples for sure.

They told me I could only play at one of their books. I said, OK, what books are in your group? They said "they couldn't tell me".

The rule is simple: Losers only.

According to the list on sbr.com they are all jazettebooks! I believe I have heard that sportsbetting.com/ag is not jazette?? Is the list updatet?

BAUS · 10-03-11, 02:47 PM

Sportsbetting.ag is not Jazzette. I believe they are in Curacao, and Jazzettes are based elsewhere.

I thought Hollywood was bought out by them many years ago? I don't know offhand what their current status is though.

Yeah losers only is the rule of the game here.
