These threads are by far the most visited and commented on ... Funny how these issues only surface when the player wins ... I haven't seen a thread yet where a player broke the rules and lost and the book refunded his money.

I like them because it allows lots of different opinions on the situation. When I work with a player it is his opinion, my opinion, and book opinion, this way you get to see general attitudes toward issues.

I actually like reading those types of threads myself as well Laker. Funny how you never get the straight answer from either party when your working on the complaint isn't it, and find out via the forums the details they left out.

You know the mere nature of gambling involves playing angles. SBR is boo'd by many of our competitors, industry guys and sportsbooks for looking at complaints not as angle shooters caught red heanded but as players and what rules they broke. Its not the good ole boy system. But in the long run I think the books are better off for threads that examine the rules vs what a player really did.

I agree with the initial post that people tend to complain when they are screwed rather than when they are not. But I guess I fail to see the irony of that.
