BOS has really turned the corner....

ppeter · Jan 31, 2006

They are now an "A" rated book IMO under the new owners. There is no hint of the shadiness that earned them a bad rep under previous ownership.

Their betting menu is enormous and their lines are very, very nice.

I have been doing well there and there is no hint of giving me the boot or cutting my limits, or any of the other tactics typical of "bush league" books with no balls.

They have been paying me prompty and with a smile. :103631605

I think I am going to puke.

ppeter · Jan 31, 2006

Chuck you know me, I do not bullshlt or shill this kind of stuff. I am the first to rip a POS book, but I will share my positive experiences if a book is a comer. I was skeptical at first too, but the proof is in the pudding. This really is new management/ownership (the British PLC group), and they handle themselves with the professionalism of a publically traded company. They kind of remind me of Bowmans or Canbet now. I have the same amount of faith in them now.

Been saying this for the past 6 months.

Now have never came on this forum and said I believed that BOS was a TOP FIVE book day in and day out.............but for the past 6 months they would be in my TOP 13-20 OVERALL...........and as most of you know, I use a wide arrange of books(hard to find anybody with more).

There are MANY very, very good books in the offshore world currently and BOS for the past 6 months(with me) has certainly fit that bill........and more.

Fish, I would put them in my top 10. They meet all the criteria--number of betting options, unique lines, fast grading, take decent sized bets, excellent c.s., not chasing off short-term winners at the drop of a hat, and now SAFETY, IMO.

ClipJoint · Jan 31, 2006

If they have turned the corner, why not pay the $500k they owe a player?

OMNIVOROUS FROG · Jan 31, 2006

If they turn 3 more corners will they come full circle and scam again?

PPeter, what exactly are decent sized wagers? Thanks, LT

Oh gambling Gods, please forgive us our sins, and let the customers think we turned the corner.

You are forgiven and blessed with a Platinum rating.

At this moment is not "we", they are a new company. No one from the past is still there.

It is hard to digest, but it is the reality of the place today..

That is all I can say about them..

OMNIVOROUS FROG · Jan 31, 2006

I leave it to God to forgive. I did not even make Pope FROG. Always good to have 1/2 mil. and a fresh new start.

Hey that is what the RX is all about, discussing offshore. On one side you have they are great now, on the other side we have they screwed a professionally player Royally, kept him on the property thinking he would get paid, then invoke a rule to rip off all funds, after the figure got large enough. Would they have given him 1/2 a mil if they had taken it from him? I am under the impression once is enough, no matter who is on first. To each his own. I stick with the pro bettors on this one. Also done at BetMill, Royal and BCN. This subject has been kicked to death. I remain on the unforgiven side of the ledger.

Fresh meat and a newbie. Boy, if I had a nickel for everytime I was called a fraud on the forums. Got anything not redundant, or was that your creative limit?

Not everybody would want to either...Dalton has been trying to sell for quite a while.

OMNIVOROUS FROG · Jan 31, 2006

I am beginning to feel a spiritual presence Warlord. You know a lot about me only after 6 or 7 posts. But you know, rather than get into with you and have this thread bounced to the rubber room, I will agree with whatever you say. I like the BOS topic much better. You are absolutely right. Next BOS post please, nothing to see here folks, move along.

Best Wishes...OF :finger23:

OMNIVOROUS FROG · Jan 31, 2006

Yes, the truth hurts, and the thread is about the truth at BOS not me. Are you that desperate to start a pissing match to get it bounced, after a entire ten posts? Whatever you say boss. I like this thread a lot now.

truth hurts doesn't it:finger23: and of course you want to move along, you are a joke, and anyone with half a clue can see that. now next time you want to tell the forum how much money you won, show us the ticket before the game starts.

9 posts and all you've done is talk smack. why don't YOU show us a winning ticket and stop the bitching and moaning?

Agenda alert here. Everyone hates FROG at one point or another. Very curious to pick a fight with me in this thread, when I am talking in 5 or 6 others. Almost as if you want it to degrade into a pissing match and get bounced off the front page. Maybe the ol FROG is so battle tested he only chooses when to fight, and refuses to get drawn in.

If I did not know any better, and had to speculate, you are BOS employee, a Dalton sidekick or both. I love these random attacks. Oops, no fight, and your attack backfired. Nice try, thread stays up front.
