Rioshill - the contests are great! Any reason to have a Rio account if you have Skybook?

seems like the lines are identical and every wager offered (props and stuff) are exaclty the same between your sister sites betrio and skybook. I love Skybook. With Skybook on some wagers you get a free 1/2 point (hoops and football). Nothing free on Rio. Why would anyone need a Rio account? Am I missing something? are there advantages to getting a Rio account (something you get at Rio that you dont get at Skybook?). Do you get higher limits or something? Also you guys have a reduced vig shop in your family as well correct? Those lines are the same except you get the reduced vig option. so again why Rio over that shop?

Can you get an account at all three and wager on the same games from the same comupter for the full limits if you like that side?


Thanks! just wondering how a sportsbook family works.

RIO has more restrictions. I agree Skybook is better. They are just competing with themselves.

Hate to admit it, but you are right. At this juncture, Skybook is better. Rio needs to come up with more stuff right now to really compete. Rio is phasing out the free half, so its real challenge will be coming up with a niche in the future that sets Rio apart from the rest. Right now the greatest attribute is higher limits. Believe me Rio will come up with a niche. Right now we are just solid and honorable. In this day and age, that ain't bad.

Actually, after hoops is over, the THIRD sister book - IIS - is the only one you need. It is the only one of the 3 with reduced vig. Since Sky and Rio only give free half points on foots and hoops, I see absolutely no reason to play at either book again til foots season. Am I right, Rio Shill?

Rio is solid and honorable is what they offer?

How are they more solid and more honorable and more safe that having your money in Skybook or the other sister place?

Is there some reason where one of these sister books is safer than the others. Is the money safer in Rio for some reason?

thanks your sister books are one of the best things going right now

Can a customer open up an accoutn at all three (maybe they would not even know they were realted) and bet the max on a given game from the same computer? Same question on a Prop you have out there? IS that against the rules?

I think one of the main differences is Skybook has these very cool giveaways with deposits...I may be tempted to open a skybook acct by NFL
