is this organization "sbr" actually affiliated withany of the books?
or independent
it seems a couple times when i couldnt get into the cris or bookmaker site
i also couldn't get into this site at exactly the same time
are the computer systems connected?

also:

i've noticed especially in the last week or two some posters have announced "making mega plays" or "unloading" on some game and theyre almost always losers
the only one that really stands out in my mind was the guy a couple days ago (with the bosox ring avatar) who was going big on the bosox against seattle with the great phenom pitcher going for seattle
just doesn't seem like the right spot for anyone with half a brain to "unload' on

the point i'm getting at is i get the feeling some posters might be phonies-really working for various books trying to influence people to bet on ridiculous games
also the seeming connection between this website and cris/bookmaker

like i said
call me "crayzee

If you think the people asking you to "unload" on a game are sharp and evil, bet the other side. If you think they are noise, ignore.

i honestly have never bet on a game because of someone else's suggestion
just gather all the info i can and make my own choice

i hsad alresdy decided to go with seattle in tha tgame
also last night alot of people were big on the lakers but i liked clippers and went with them any way
tc
could be like that on this board as well

sbr has a deal with VIP.. but im not sure if its still in place.. but i know they used to.

I could be wrong about any of the following:

SBR's site is likely to go down at the same time as some other sportsbooks because they are located in San Jose, Costa Rica, just like many popular books. When a common network resource goes down, they all go down.

The level of affiliation between SBR and the books is open for debate, but I can pretty much assure you that no one is feeding you sure losers on here in order to boost profit for the books. Anyone who knows a sure loser would be much better served to use all of their energy loading up on the other side.

Mrx x .. i totally agree.. no one is posting losers on this site..that is just stupid.. but i believe sbr had a deal with VIP in the past to push their site as well as their high rating.. im not saying that the rating was not deserved or anything like that.. actually i dont even really have a problem with what they did.. sbr does a great job, but they did have a deal with VIP.. thats all
