i played bases these a couple of years ago and had no problems with them

they are old school bookies, when you lose you pay and when you win you get paid

i dealt with them on a credit basis with an agent out of CR

overall expierence was good

at the same time i had an account with cris thru the same agent and the expierences were the same for me

I dont think BBD will be depositing into Plat.SB. I think he just wants some feedback on the book is all. To see where they stand at this time.

I see your getting geared up for Bases DM, with that BoSox logo. I cant wait for Bases myself.

Dead Money, I play at more places than most to my own loss at times. I am not saying anyone should use them as a primary book or even their 12th choice, but for me they offered some value and have had no payout complaints that I am aware of. Stick to B or better and don't even have to worry. I think PlatinumSB is pretty good for a D+ book, but they certainly are new to postup and that is somewhat reflected in that I would guess.

Can't wait Onlooker.

I didn't meen to say that anyone was depositing there or anything, I'm just a little overly cautious this time of year.

Kinda curious of how many books will fail or slow pay after the SB.

I've heard it has been a pretty rough year for the books/bookies.

I'm just using 3 rite now and they are all A or higher on the SBR

Last year they dipped their toe into the -105 market with $500 limits, but apparently decided not to go that way. They're volume still mostly comes on the credit end, and they haven't quite figured out how to establish a deposit presence.

I've never heard a complaint against them.

Somehow i'd say things are looking a little rosier after bowl season. A lot of inflated favourite lines that the public jumped all over i'd say. Books gotta be cleaning up.

Anything new about Platinum in the last 2 years? Probably doesn't matter as you need an agent I think.

The reason for the downgrade back on 11/5/07 was because the owner got arrested.

platinumsb lowered from C- to D+
They are strictly a credit shop these days. However, every player that had funds in their accounts at the time did get paid without any problems.

PlatinumSB is owned by the Hells Angels.

Check out the Hells logo in the top right hand corner of the homepage.
