    Default Is your book secure? Slow pays?

    This is the time of the season where smaller books or less reputable books will start to pull shenangians.... Make sure your in a safe spot with your money. Lots of books start to lose liquidity after the first weeks of the NFL have worn off and some people have taken them... Slow paying is the biggest indicator of this, especially for the only football crowd.

    It will progressively get worse throughout the season... Mainly after the baseball playoffs have ended. Make sure your on top of where your $$$ is at and whose got slow play threads. That's usually a good indicator of whats going on with your book.

    I play with the best book around, I have no worries in my mind. I feel more safe with my money in the book that I use than sitting on a 1/4 key.

    Yes the two books I currently have money are very safe. Never really got into playing at the smaller books and I'm not sure why anyone would.

    anyways the concept behind this post is about week 10-12 you start to see which books are hurting as the slow pay complaints really start to come in. They start offering tons of bonuses and mass emails/phone calls trying to drive in fresh cash to pay the existing winners... happens every year. People who are playing in substandard rated books need to know this especially the first time betters...

    I thought Betus was a great book to play at until I couldn't get paid and had to request SBR help. Actually it was SBR help and The General's help as they advertised with whatever site he was with/running at the time, then he moved to a another site, and then eventually ended up here but he prob does not remember.
