    Yup, that's it then...Official as of a few minutes ago. Used to use them almost as much as Pinnacle several years back, and would never have imagined this scenario back then.....

    I almost cried. I will miss them. When they stop taking US costumers( I was grandfathered in) I thought they would be around for a longer time than this. They were a great sportsbook with no complaints from me. Excellant costumer service and always paid quickly.

    Free points were great. Also gave a free 1/2 point on your favorite teams one year, maybe 2 years. Paid very fast. Lines up early and they didn't update them until 9:00 or so in the morning. Gave great parlay odds one day of the week, not a good idea if you were them and accepting correlated parlays. Great costumer service as I said. Almost gave me the boot last year but talked them into leting me stay there.

    They will be missed.

    2 years ago they gave a full free point in your favor on 2 NBA teams of your choice for every game the entire season. That was awesome.

    Guy stopped me yesterday at Tim Hortons as I was wandering around wearing my VIPSports "wanna bet?" shirt...Asked if they were a good site and such.

    I had to wipe away a tear.....

    the free points was a great promo, had accounts at all 3 shops with different teams in the same division. In football when 2 of them played head to head 2x per year you got an automatic middle on each game. Baskets same thing. I took teams at each book. Made some nice scores before they figured it out and closed my accounts at all 3 shops. But they let me cash out my balances and was paid timely so I can't complain. Hated their software though
