    Why do people play with scam books?

    Like 10Bet, bet365, Titanbet or 5Dimes etc...

    Never understanding

    365 and 5D aren't scam books
    but they are very limited in their usefulness to winners

    Don't use titan, but others are pretty much ok, except for the limiting issues.

    Not sure how your assessment of 'scam books' is made, the books mentioned are fine except they may have strict limitations on how you use them.

    these books are not scam.
    Scam - it was for example betafterbet, casineto, goldvictory (if you know them). They were offering unadequate bonuses and odds..

    Moonbeam, my guess is that they are new to the business and simply have no idea what books are pieces of shit...Nevermind the books you listed. I still recall when I first started up and was happily playing at fecal-laden book "EWinner" for months, not at all realizing that my chances of ever getting a payout from them were comparable to my chances of ever getting a blowjob from Jessica Biel.....

    1)5 Dimes is not a scam book.

    2)People play at places like sportsbook.com because they don't know any better. Sportsbook.com, BetUS, and Bodog get a ton of new players because of their extensive advertising.

    Most of the people with these scam books are looking for the too good to be true bonues that are offered there. I would guess 98% of them never make the rollover so they never know any better. The 2% that do make the rollover then either get paid (to keep them around) or dont get paid and end up here trying to get paid.

    5Dimes is a legit bookmaker and you will notice they dont have outrageous bonus claims. In fact I think you get one bonus when you sign up and that is it.

    moonbeam likely promotes a scam book, so he calls all the legit books "scam books".

    We're not buying what he's selling.

    According to him, 5 Dimes, Pinnacle, and Bet365 are scam books, when in reality they are three of the best you can find.

    He also attacks SBR a lot, for not rating the books the way he would rate them.

    leaving aside that not all those are scammers, the reason why people play scam books basically comes down to greed and ignorance

    they are attracted by bonuses which generally seem to be far better than they are in reality given the conditions attached to them and that you have to bet at poor odds to meet those conditions

    more savvy punters recognise that the best 'bonus' is low juice with no conditions

    people play at scam books because they have not gotten scammed there , yet. all books have that potential. some more than others. but once they have your money. all you have is thier word you will ever see it again.

    why are you so hung up about the phone?
    I've never had need to phone an offshore book
    they are an exchange .. don't take phone bets

    Hey Stumpage, Jessica Biel is not the hottest women in the world. Is there any other woman in your dreams to give you a bowjob or make you happy?
