They are advertising in my city that 80% of the public participates in online gaming, and that their sportsbook is the largest "on the planet".

Obviously these are lies. The percentage of americans participating in online gaming is below 5%.

What else do they lie about, and how long will it be before this book goes broke having spent millions on worthless bull advertising?

A reputable, honest sportsbook, Pinnacle, Olympic, WSEX, etc. etc. grows its organization based on how it has treated its customers over time.

A book that is dishonest in their advertising will be dishonest in everything else.

I would avoid this outfit.

They are not going to last.

I see there is already a thread on them. Sorry to create a new thread.

This is one of the worst sportsbooks of all time.....you are definitely right to suggest people avoid them.

[pags11]

definitely one of the biggest scams out there...

[SBR_John]

A "scam"? No. This is another SIA kind of book. The CS is so bad they sometimes seem like a scam and they are heavy handed if there is a dispute. Of course if you win you get to play "audit" for a while and fax in your stuff a few times. But not really a scam. They are the lowest paying book to their employees and managers and morale is bad. They dont care and it shows.

Stay far way from this book, high risk

john, I'm sorry bro...these guys ARE a scam...they are constantly looking for ways to screw players (fine print, especially with prop and future bets)...also very shady with their bonus structure...they advertise in America which is just completely dumb!...then they go from a public to private company in like a week...it's the biggest scam on the net...all they have going for them is Niki Cox (and before that Brooke Burke)...that's it...

I put them in the same ilk as SIA, Royal, Betmania, Sportsbook has one bet I like that I can't do anywhere else, so I go back on occasion. They are a bit fishy. The whole company got sold for $1 or something ?

The million dollar contest with 4.4 billion to one odds against winning the 32 teamer. I'd avoid them is my advice to most players. I question their backing.

louis, I agree Sportsbook.com needs to be avoided.

Sadly, I have a poker room balance w/them. I'm afraid to ask for a w/d.

It all started with their free promo tournaments end of last yr.
