I noticed this book is rated B, but I read some bad stuff in their history from about a year ago. Anyone have any recent experiences with this shop? SBRJohn, are they as safe as other B rated books?

Ronald,
Yes they are probably safer than any B rated book on the list. They are owned by VIP. Having said that I would recommend you play at either VIP, Gameday or Nine. These are the VIP flagship books and although VIP disagrees, we think they put a much greater effort into managing their flagship sportsbooks. Certainly their flagship sportsbooks get better player feedback.
If you found an offer at Betcom that you really like then go for it, you will be fine. Otherwise, join one of their main flagship books.1250ptsSBR POKER TOURNEY1st Place 3/31/2012

Any bad history will probably be confined to their days in the Grand Central Sports group. Betcom were taken over by VIP at the end of last year and I would say that your money is pretty safe there.
