Default How did you come across SBR?
I found SBR through google.

I was looking for another book to join other than Bodog and came across some vogue sportsbook rating sites before discovering this place.. Was reading the reviews for awhile until I discovered the forum section.

How about you?

In a public restroom last summer. As I was taking a dump I saw jjgolds contact information scribbled on the stall, after asking around I was informed he was a bald jew from Newark who books action online. I was always skeptical of using my CC online so I figured I'd try to touch base with him and see about getting set up at a book and just settling with him directly. Unfortunately he'd been discovered by the time I created my account and lost PM access.

Through a google search for a gambling forum...monitored SBR, therx, and EOG for a while before deciding that I liked this place the most.

I enjoy reading sport talk on forums and I read that Mofome was mainly posting here so I decided to join here, cause it looks well run and basically bash free.

Sporty told me to come that she was arguing and having fun with a silly man called Genuis.
