    Johnny Detroit stated Bet Phoenix may be acquired by Bookmaker

    If that does happen probably kiss goodbye to all those Asian handicap soccer odds forever!!Also some reputable offshore books refusing to do book to book transfers with Matchbook now!Bettor BEWARE!

    Have you ever known Bookmaker to give bettors a decent break?

    Probably kiss that goodbye forever!Three good things about Bookmaker:A. Rewards program(unless you are a pro)B. 8% major horse racing track exotics daily rebate C. Generous odds on multiple team FB & BKB parlays with a max payout of $150K

    No clue BUT

    Johnny Detroit(Pregame site)has been banned or severely limited by numerous offshore books during his wagering career.He may know more about what's going on behind the scenes than most

    Bookmaker is not acquiring BetPhoenix or entering into any kind of partnership with BP.

    Common ownership between BP and DSI but that's not new or relevant to the OP.

    what a bunch of jokes.. who would believe this garbage.. betphoenix is operating fine and running 4 or 5 books themselves.. skybook.betphoenix.wagerchief.betmania. etc I highly doubt they are having any trouble and need to be bought out..

    IF THEY WERE BEING BOUGHT.. why would it hurt?? bookmaker is about as stable as they come, so if anything betphoenix would become better.. LOL wtf. most books who acquire other books dont change everything.. they like the flare being a little different at each shop.. keeps more customers in their database.

    This was the defining moment when I knew 100% that you have absolutely no clue what you are talking about.

    You'd rather get industry standard fixed prices on higher parlays than Bookmaker's true odds huh?

    You fell for that? The guys plays are a losing proposition since he started selling again. The most the guy wagers a game is $1500 and thats once a year. Most bets are $500.
