I'm looking at this old flyer for Wagermall, a BoS book. It's for either last year or the year before.
Wagermall was one of the BoS books that are now defunct. However, this flyer shows all the BoS books at the time is was issued (one year ago, or a max of two years) that WMall would show on thier screens to give clints a choice of odds and other features, like better parlay payoffs, etc.
The odds that WMall would show on the screen were not really the true current odds at the various books they listed. This, after all, was a Bos operation. But it was a way that a bettor could usually get a difference in a half point on a side, and sometimes a full point on totals.
Wagermall's "stable" of books were all, without exception, part of the BoS chain. Such as Millenium (their flagship book), Jaguar, Nasa, Gibralter, Infinity, etc.
And also . . . . Best Line Sports. According to the flyer, they operated out of Costa Rica, in the central tower building of the San Pedro Mall in San Jose.
They are still in business, but now in Panama.
A few months ago when some posters here suggested calling the numbers BoS had set up to take depostors names and addresses for eventual payback (LOL), I did make the call, even tho I thought little of the chances. ( I had a small amount in one of the BoS books, not Wagermall, where I withdrew it all after March Madness.)
The address I gave to the guy who answered the phone is one I'd never used before with anyone; an unoccupied condo that I partially own.
Three days later I got in the mail there a flyer from Best Line Sports. Absolutely no question they got the info from the BoS employee still manning the phones in Costa Rica.
Reports out of Costa Rica a few months ago told of at least one BoS executive moving all the BoS computer equipment to Panama, a prototypical "banana republic" with zero regulations and where anything goes, so long as the proper govt bandidos have been given their mordida.
Is is possible that Best Lines legally split from BoS before the Carruthers arrest? Or is this still a de facto BoS book, operating sub rosa in the Caribbean, still soliciting funds from U.S. bettors?
