    Default ever ask yourself..

    how shit sites make money ?
    Even when boards like these are around .iSBR has good google ranking and all so when poeple look up certain words they will come out in the first pages to avoid other people getting scammed.

    Thing is we are only 5 to 7% of the WHOLE industry .

    Books of the likes of BETUS , BODOG etc or even scam sites ......truth is that most of the people who gamble offshore dont even know there are sites to help them settle on disputes or at least point them in a safe direction.

    Kinda sucks doesnt it ?

    Bodog's never stiffed anyone.

    I've met tons of people through the years that play at betus -- i tell them not to, they say they've heard that before but they've never had a problem. Of course if you are never cashing out you can play anywhere.

    My big thing with bodog is that they seem to be a time bomb , and BOS all over again.

    Their processing has been known to have crashed 100% at some points ,

    I just cant forgive a book that sent 5000 bad checks ,, betus.. well for every guy that quits playing there they get 3 new accounts.. go figure

    I respectfully disagree in regards to Bodog being a potential crash and burn type book these days. Now that Calvin has retired & passed the torch to Morris Mowhawk. I feel that their processing issues will get back on track, because the spotlight isn't as bright as it use to be.

    The processing issues that hit bodog where a direct result of the legislation.

    They have a ton of players used to depositing on friday and withdrawing on monday.

    That type of play just isn't gonna happen anymore.

    Some people sign up without doing any research.

    Rush into it with bad sites that look flashy and well developed/backed up.

    i have been betting online for 6 years and I never once thought to check into how legit a site was until I had my first bad experience and I think that is how most people are

    I agree, that's how I stumbled upon this site after issues with Sportsbook.com

    yep new goers will type in sports betting on google and click the first link which FYI the top 3 are sportsbetting.com, betus.com, and sportsbook.com three mid to low quality books, and I started with all my buddies from high school at the same time so then you all go to the same place so you get your little referral bonuses etc so one inexperienced person can bring a lot of traffic to a bad book

    I never had a problem with them before the ban and never used them after it, was not a big time player back then and lost more than I won so I guess they wanted to keep me around then only was betting 50-200 in those days when it was more about the challenge and braggin rights to friends
