Welcome to the SBR forum, Wombat.

For starters, any of the books on the SBR recommended list will be a good bet, and if you'd expand on your specific needs in terms of what you'd like to bet I'm sure people here can better direct you.

First off, Welcome to the SBR forum sir

I would agree with Crazyl and suggest to you to look at the SBR recommended list. However, If you would tell us what you are looking for in a sportsbook, then all of us can narrow down which book best suits your needs.

Crazyl, nice to see you are back on top of things.

thewombat, welcome to SBR.

Mofome - I really think based on our newbie here and others that "the mo" is a necessary change.

Welcome, wombat. I recently joined on another poster's rec and have been reading a lot of the good poster's insights and learning as I go. Lots of good info and laughs here. You'll enjoy the place, I'm sure. I recall when I was a kid there was a sportswriter on the east coast that called himself "The Wombat." Any relation?

Hey that's alright, sir. Just glad you joined and just wanted to say that was a really nice call on the wings puckline last night. I, like a moron, lost again as I had the Blues to win SU. Looking forward to your next play.
