Anyone know anything about this book? They aren't on SBR's review list and when I first visited their site there was a message about their security certificate being expired (or something like that). Thanks.

Looks like the site has been around a long time and the company focused on RTG casinos, MardiGrasCasino, EWorldCasino and ClubRegalCasino. We don't know much about the book except it is in CR.

Expanding off of Mr.Dozer's comments above. TheVegasStrip (Not Rated) was first established back in 1999 and there banking options are pretty bad. They only accept bank wires, checks, and Western Union/MoneyGram type deposits (no ewallets).

They don't

I was just reading there policies and I didn't see anything that would indicate that at all sir. In fact everything seems to be U.S. and Canadian oriented.

Are my winnings reported to any government agency?
Absolutely not. Do you recommend that I report my winnings to the IRS? You need to be familiar with USA tax law. We suggest you talk to a qualified person in the USA.

Thanks guys I scoured search engines but the only info I could find was very generic or no later than 2001. I found a few other forums talking about it but none of them really seemed to come to a conclusion. All I care about at this point is if they pay out. What do you guys think about the fact that those casinos TVS was linked to don't exist anymore? I may have to just deposit a smallish amount and take the risk.

Edit: Also any concern over the security certificate issue? No one else had the same message?
