Veteran posters have no excuse unless to bonus whore. New posters, short term lurkers, or new players just don't realize there are scams out there. They get suckered by a big banner somewhere and sign-up, only to get screwed around and then find us.

Another reason is I have been stiffed by as many advertisers here as I have at these obscure books.

PanAm and NAB come to mind. LMAO

Reward vs Risk

Many obscure books are worth the risk given the rewards.

That is what it comes down to and each individual must make that decision on their own.

laker I agree there but at LEAST you have a voice here to try to help...whether they can or not is a different story but you still have a better "chance" of some type of recovery if an RX book goes down...then if your playing at a unknown submarinecasino type place

just my opinion

Fishhead is right on. That is exactly what the determination should be based on. Of course the tough part sometimes is judging that risk. You just gotta figure out how risk tolerant you are and play appropriately.

newbie-- Bet365 an obscure book?

You better reinvestigate your sources.

ps- They have a ton of local shops in the UK and last night they had 3900 players in their pokerroom.

Based JUST on safety.......I cannot think of ONE shop in the world that is MORE safe than Bet365 IMO.

Would like to see the Shrinks obscure list of books. Seems like a pretty wide open statement that needs to be clarify better. Currently have accounts at DSI, Sportsbetting, Sportingbetusa, and Bodog. Was thinking of adding 7 Palms. Am I ok??
Best of luck. Forza Italia.

Erm.....Ladbrokes, William Hill both have about 40 times the number of shops of Bet365 and are much, much safer.

Not MORE safe IMO, plus most USA citizens are not allowed to play at those books.
