Hi Earl,

Just in case you have any direct questions to the book, I always check the forum. I'm also BK in SBR.

SBR has a more posts about us than the RX does, just in case you want to check them out.

And if you want to ask anything directly at Action Bets, I'm Aden, 1 800 801 7390 ext 4426.

I have played there and have spoken to Aden on the phone a few times.

Starting with the positives, the customer service is good, they have reduced juice and some nice bonuses. When I cashed out, my payout was handled very well. I know others who had payouts which were handled well.

The negative is that I am a fairly big $$$ player and they don't like that. My limits were cut twice (from 2K to 1K to $500) before I had completed my rollover. I'm not a steam player and the first time they cut them I was only up a fraction of a unit - so it is obvious they just don't want big action. As soon as they saw I was placing max bets a couple times, they started cutting.

It's like they say about some books: "Their on-line limits only apply to people who aren't going to bet that much."

I don't begrudge books that do that but I feel it does bear mentioning in a forum like this.

When I told them I was going to cash out, they actually put my limits back up to 1K. Everything was handled very professionally.

I would recommend this book. There are a few people they won't be quite right for. Based on what I have said, anyone should be able to figure out if they are in that group.

in general, it is so frustrating the way some books treat you when you are winning. i just dont get it. cut my limits and give yourself no chance of getting your money back. i am no pro and am going to hit a losing streak just like i did a winning streak to get up in the first place.

Keep in mind that you can always place higher wagers on the phone. The limits are ususally cut when somebody's wagers shows a pattern of the lines moving right after they place the wager, whether they're winning or losing. Now it could be a coincidence, but we tend to follow a better-safe-than-sorry policy on this matter. We won't cut your limits over the phone, just online. And the lowest we will put the online limit is $500.

We want to be responsible with our money so that we can always get your money in your hands in full and on time.

Solid rating?

Who are you? SBR gave them a C rating!!!

I don't know why anyone would bother with this book.

Action is a great shop. Been with them for 2 years and no complaints. They should be higher than a C by SBR but perhaps they haven't been around long enough to receive a higher grade.
