      Lat I heard Dave was pushing pay per head- but it would be hard to trust anyone who helped wagerweb turn into such a scam book-

      Never understand how a brand new book can get any rating- u see a bank account with money in it?


      Post up is dead- u cannot get money in or out- total pain in ass and not worth it for anyone to start

        Would not consider posting up here for even a split second

        WagerWeb should be an F book

          why exactly has the book opened at C-? if his former book was a D-?

          just curious as to how this all works..

          is this site legit shari or should we keep our funds away?

          thx

            Average bettor:

            10 $100 bets

            5 wins for $500
            5 losses for $550

            $100 back in freeplay which is turned into $45 cash on average.

            So this book is working with a 0.5% hold for a 50% bettor?

              Exactly. C- is too generous an initial rating, especially given the WW (D-) background the manager. This "Johnson" guy sounds like a "stiff job" waiting to happen.

                Even before yesterday I would've said to just wait and see with this book but after this and the subsequent lowering of their rating to a D+ already, I personally could never recommend anyone play there. Unless maybe you're a bonus guy or can attack soft lines and figure the risk is worth it I guess. Then again, I have a low risk tolerance when it comes to my bankroll so keep that in mind as well.

                        Man, that has gotta suck... Dave thinking he walked away with a C and then get bent over... D might as well be an F... only sites with real traction are C or better and what we are really saying is B or better.... but nice rummaging around in threads from last May...
