Anyone bet w/ sportsbook.com or Grande

red007 · May 18, 2003

Need another out..you can never have too many.
Does anyone bet w/ Grande or sportsbook.com.
If so, how are they? I don't care about bonuses. Just want a good book that pays.
thanks in adavance

Sportsbook.com will pay you for sure. That book is making a killing. The only downside is payout through checks and that usually takes 3 to 4 weeks to recieve.

GRANDE is a great out for bases.

No worries playing there.

red007 · May 18, 2003

even for a fed ex payout?
i'd rather do a sportsbook tranfer for my initial deposit..and they don't accept them.
i guess they are based out of ireland.
so i will need to find a book closer to the caribbean.

I think both are worthy of playing. Grande is much more highly touted. I would suggest dropping an amount in each book & seeing which fits you. Keep us informed.

Good luck

red007 · May 18, 2003

thanks for the info guys.
i think i'm going to look for some other books
as grande doesn't offer nascar/tennis..which is what i'm interested in.

Grande a better book.Sportsbook .com is a very good book.They trade on London stock exchange so they are safe.Grande's lines are sharper.

But sportsbook.com is a great book where I play everyday. But why DANNYMAY would you request a check payout? Fedex only takes 1 day and if you request at least $500 at a time then there are as many free withdrawals that you want each month. Actually I just use bankwire for my payouts and I receive them quickly each time. ALWAYS request less than $10,000 each time though when you get a bankwire so the bank doesnt have to fill out the extra IRS form for you!

I think that books shouldnt allow book-to-book transfers. It only hurts the industry in terms of the bonus whores. ANd would you want another book to know how much you win??? I think not, since they may cut your limits sooner than later

i'm not a bonus whore. i like sportsbook tranfers. allows me to spread out my money
somewhat even between all the book i bet with.
plus, i don't like to have to send money via western union or other ways, when i can just have one book send money to another, esp if you win regularly.

Grande runs a tight ship , but when you ask for money its there.IMO thats very IMPORTANT..SB.COM solid as well...

"well sportsbook.com tades on wall street I believe you meant to say."

No, Judge meant to say what he said - they trade on the London Stock Exchange ... and he is correct.

I can't believe that you play at and tout all their books, and you don't know that they're owned by Sportingbet which trades on the LSE.

In relation to these books, it seems that the things you are most familiar with are your referral codes.

PO69 · May 18, 2003

well what about worldgaming, it is traded in the US . I guess that is what I meant

krackman · May 18, 2003

Grande is a top book and it is very hard to find a sharper line. Recently a friend of mine told me that he uses neteller all the time with them and they pay as quick as anyone.

Sportsbook.com has many ties with other books too. As a side note: Dont bother trying to win any money at worldgaming casinos. They have the software rigged to cheat you out of your money.

I dealt with you before when I worked there....not sure why your check took that long to get to you. I assure you it was one of three things.

1. The address was wrong.
2. Check was cancelled and re issued per ur request.
3. Somehow it went off regular mail which is a nightmare to wait for.

DannyMay · May 19, 2003

Yes the check came through regular mail. You dont work there anymore ?

PO69 · May 19, 2003

Now I might take up for this sportsbook on a number of occassions, but I cant tell anyone to play the casinos. You would have to be the biggest dumbass in the world to play online casino games. Just go to your local Indian Reservation if you feel the need, but dont play games where the house edge is probably about 50%.

Oh yes, and I dont want to hear any shit about "thewizardofodds", dont believe that numbers on that site AT ALL!!!.

Everyone, just dont play those silly casino games on the net and you will have plenty of money at the end of year to bet on sports
