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 liked them, they offered -105 on nba at least last year.

Ummmmm. excuse me for my ignorance but isn't this rated at D+???????

Why are you guys interested in a D+ book

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

I understand. I hope we dont get to many horror stories after the superbowl.

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.

I met these guys in town and was curious as to how the players, if any felt about them.

Newguyintown · 12-30-2007, 07:57 PM

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.
