This message was directed towards newbies who don't know about the shit books he is promoting dan. I will stop by as well, but newbies beware, jjgold's site has alot of crap/AK sponsors......stay away from the advertisers.

ILL, JJ's site has some good sponsers too though. i think the better way of expressing your views on JJ's sponsers is to tell them to stick with the main stay ones, just like the ones at the top of the page.

Yes, most of his sponsors are good, but the other ones are in his pocket. Most sites only care about their financial well being. That's why why they take on shit books. Just do a search on this site about jj's thoughts on some of his sponsors. You will be surprised (well most of us won't be)

I like SBR a lot, but there is always room for competition in all facets of life.

I don't know what jjgold's site is (and I don't want to know) but if it's shilling crap books, I agree that it shouldn't be supported.

BigBoyDan's philosophy of i think the better way of expressing your views on JJ's sponsers is to tell them to stick with the main stay ones is extemely weak. Looking the other way is not the answer. Sites should not be treating their posters as marks PERIOD, and this idea that it's okay to do it just a little bit is irresponsible. I wish I knew what your agenda was in your constant dry-humping of jjgold Dan. Players should be looking out for players.

Apart from shilling for weak sponsors, here's another good reason to stay away from that site: jjgold spreads really bad info about betting on sports. He can't cap; he doesn't understand exchanges or middling. As I recall he finds the Pinnacle site confusing. He's just a mess.

Players should be looking out for players. Good job Illusion.

mudcat, it wouldn't matter what i said to you about JJ. because, no matter what it was if it wasn't a cheap shot at him you would disagree. so, with all that said it's worth posting a reply to you sir.

I appreciate the newbie warning Illusion, but I have not and will not ever play at anything but a major A+ sportsbook. Doing this as a hobby, with little money, I only need to play at one book. I'd like to move my meager funds from VIP to CRIS (I like their lines and juice better), but no matter what book I play if it's not rated at least an A then I'm staying away. It would be different if I had a $30K bankroll, but I don't think I'll ever have to worry about that

JJGold said his site is not a watchdog to be fair.

Guys, if we keep ripping on him and his site, he's going to find out about it and come back here. Do we really want that? That being said, I didn't think his site is anything to call home about and I disagree with most of his ratings.

I think he's still around here anyways

No interest in his site, but good luck to him
