Well General, let's be honest, that's easy for you to say AFTER you take down banners.....

For example, Im CONFIDENT you would have said the same thing a few months back when Royal was advertising but then it was known that they had some issues......so I doubt you would endorse them 100% right now......

p.s. this is not to bash Royal as we have all heard many payout stories since then, just to point out to General it's easy to say what he said....

Ever really sat down and thought/wondered why the NASCAR contest didn't take off? I am sure many read between the lines.

Some is better then others. Im a member of all but a few and still like sportsbetting and bodog the best. Why isnt Olympic on here though? They are very professional. I was only at sorry sportsbook.com till I joined these other ones!

not sure why that matters......had i come out and asked in a thread are there any books you wouldn't send money to that advertise here, you would have said ROYAL? I doubt it!

Besides, truthfully, SHOULDN'T you be 100% confident in the books before allowing them to advertise here anyway?

I did more work investigating Royals situation than anyone at the time. We did what we had to do and I assured Kevin I would not resort to slinging mud in the open forums. Situations are easier and better when you just supply the facts and let the posters decide.

I have no problem with mybookie. I am a $100 bettor at most unless i am chasing, so they would suit me fine. They have been very helpful with issues and very upfront with their feeelings and decisions to stick with their rules.

Little about platinum, but I look into my files since they came here and I see one complaint sent to me in August 2004. So far so good. I wouldn't be afraid at all to send a couple hun.

724 is newer, but had some big names behind. I have Zero official complaints on them. Nothing bad to say at all.

Yeah, in a perfect world, just as a player should do due diligence when choosing a book to send money to.

Don't listen to me or any single person. Look for feedback from many posters, do some searches. Ask at different forums, etc...

Olympic and TheRx are in SERIOUS negotiations and that's all I can say for now...

In all honesty, they don't NEED us, we don't NEED them, but together I believe both companies would be stronger...

My 2 cents...

I have not joined platinum because I am "afraid to send my money there." I don't know of any other -105 books that I have not joined..
