    Thumbs up (SOLVED) Fiestabet site is completely deleted!

    Fiestabet web site is down almost a week already. Today I saw that web page is completely deleted and the address http://www.fiestabet.com is showing godaddy parking page. Are you aware of what is going on?

    If the original info from Fiestabet's launch is correct, then it looks like they're just a turnkey hosted by BetEd, not an actual sister book. Hopefully BetEd knows what's happened at the least:

     Corrected Report 3/25/2008 5:22:13 PM: Fiestabet enters the SBR rating guide at C. The sportsbook's website is in Spanish and is a turnkey sportsbook hosted by BetED (SBR rating B-), located in Costa Rica. The operation uses BetED's proprietary software called ThrillX. BetED and ThrillX Systems do not stand for FiestaBet player funds. | Original FiestaBet Report

    What does turnkey mean? Are they providing only the software and hosting?

    Turnkey basically means that BetEd for a fee provide them office space, software, etc. but don't stand for funds. So turnkey books may be rated lower than the books that host them as they may be more of a financial risk than using the host book. If the turnkey folds, the host book has no responsibility to the players.
