I like them so far. Neteller in and out quick (not Olympic/Pinny quick but quick enough) and the lines don't move on air. Last night they had a PK up for the Magic/Jazz game for a time while most everyone else had Orlando -1/-1.5 up.

No negatives to speak of yet.

Decent book, but the customer service can be rude at times and non responsive.

Lines are usually pretty sharp, and you can wait up to 5 buisness days for a firepay cashout.

From 1-10 I would rate them a 6.5

Very suprised by the responses. FOr those who don't know, mybookie is grandcentral sports. SOme of you may have also played at parlaybook, betcom or sportsgambling911. The book has great numbers but they don't like line shoppers. IF they see you only bet thier lines when they have the best line, they will cut your online limits to zero. They really only wnat recreational players. IF you are labled as a sharp/wiseguy/scalper or lineshopper your are no longer entilted to any of thier promos like lay 105, or juice free games. WHen you aks for a line, they will transfer you to a manager who has dons bets, and they will read you a line from the db screen so you will have no ide what line you can get. So very often you will see a line, call up, only to be told you can't get that line. Pretty stupid, since they are just wasting your time and theirs. I have also seen where they canceled a wager for being a bad line when it wasn't. As for neteller withdrawals they will only let you withdraw a certian amount by neteller. After that if you keep winning you will have to withdraw by check. And they only proccess checks on Mondays. SO it could take a week to get paid.

On a scale of 1 -10 I'd give them a 3 if you are semi smart. And an eight if you are a true square.

They use to be Grand Central when i started their 4 years ago,Always paid, but they banned me from making wagers their recently, saying that all I play are good lines and they don't want my kind of player playing there.. Don't really think too much of a Shop that has this practice, since thats the friggin object, to play smart and win.

Updated thoughts on the GCN group of betcom/parlaybook/mybookie?

How is their affiliate stuff?

do a search over at SBR

SBR to meet with MyBookie (SBR rating C) management and head bookmaker. Not withstanding the recent negative event for this sportsbook, MyBookie has smartly collected top talent and has potential. MyBookie has indicated risk management policy changes will eliminate the possibility of a reoccurrence of the recent situation where MyBookie was beaten out of one third of a million dollars and then made news by trying to settle for less than the player’s account balance.

That is the latest but this book has been involved in a very shady situation a few months ago

This is a good candiate for comeback book for 2005. I want to see what players say about this book during a busy football season. I want to see what changes they made and how Rick(head bookmaker) will do in a less sharp enviroment than he is used to.

Thanks for the responses. For a rec gambler it seems like an ok out. Any good signup bonuses?
