Heard a lot of great things about Skybook so I'm giving them a try for baseball. Initial impressions are: nice software, everything laid out cleanly. I also like the fact that they didnt ask me 10,000 questions when opening the account, just my name and email. They'll get my mailing address info when it comes time for a withdrawal which is how it should be at every sportsbook.

You wont be dissapointed.

Until you withdraw and a year later make a deposit, only to find out you don't get any bonus until you re-deposit your withdrawal amount.

Good book except for the most anal policy on bonus money. I once made a deposit with no bonus, made large bet on Super Bowl and withdrew. Next time I wanted to deposit and get bonus, they said I had to first re-deposit both winnings and original deposit, even though I had not taken a bonus.

Best luck.

p.s. In fairness I must say they always paid promptly and sponsored some good contests.

Agree with others. Good book and service, but the way they do bonuses is not the greatest. If you take on a bonus with them, they may require that you give them a certain rollover before any withdrawl -at all- can be made.

in this day and age, sharing experiences about books are important.

Skybook has FIRST CLASS customer service. and you know you will get paid. very honest and forthcoming book

was with RIO initially, and now with Skybook for YEARS

few small issues and all were taken care of to my satisfaction and quickly..nothing but A+ all the way around

That's what I hear from a lot of folks. With regards to their bonus policy, they were very upfront with me and stated the exact total amount I would need to wager before withdrawals and asked me if I still wanted the bonus. Also, on Fridays you can sell your free half point half in the NBA for a dime to save a bit on the juice which I thought was kinda cool. So instead of -110 it wil be even money both sides.

Bottom line, Skybook is excellent regardless of 2nd time around bonus policies. They are always going to listen to players suggestions on this forum (I said listen, not implement 100% of the time, some suggestions just won't work for one reason or another). Their CSD is as good as any in the industry and you have my word that if you have a problem there I will make sure your side is heard and given every opportinity to end up with the absolutely fairest disposition possible.

Play at Skybook and your money is as safe as any book doing busines today. Any Rxer with a problem there only has to drop an email to me at wilheim@therx.com and I will be on the phone whithin minutes (during normal business hours) finding out what the problem is and how can we fix it. For the average player especially Rxers (or anone else) there is no reason not to fund an account at Skybook..


I know I am a mod here but I honestly feel that way, mod or no mod. I don't go overbaoard promoting any of our sponser books because I understand people will take what I say with a grain of salt because of my position but with Skybook you don't have to feel that way, I really do feel what I say is the genuine truth, moderator or not. Skybook management is commited to doing the right thing when it comes to player disputes and will never not pay you when you legitimately have money coming.



Thanks, wil..

Their GM is one the nicest and smartest guys in the business.

Their staff is always professional and love their jobs. I have personally trained a few.

If I were to gamble, I would have them as my first out.

Hard to say if there is one book between the two that has better lines than the other mainly because IMHO which line is better is subjective and depends on the player making a bet on any given game. Both books are excellent and are similar in a lot of ways. Mainly they are ideal outs for small to medium players to be funded at. The comments I made above regarding getting paid at Skybook are equally true at BetJamaica - all Rxers are an email away from getting as much help as they need should they ever have a problem at either book.

Bottom line you will get a fair shake at either book. Customer service at both is excellent, upper management (Keith and Scotty) and their staffs are always accessable and very cooperative to me whenever I need to discuss a player dispute or any other matter that effects Rxers who play at their books. There is no reason for sharp players not to have funded accounts at both books and then take the best number on any particular game where they find it.


Both books offer excellent customer service and are without a doubt going to pay winners promptly.


Again anyone with a problem at any Rx.com sponser feel free to drop me an email at wilheim@therx.com and I will deal with it immediately.

That is pretty cool ( selling the half for 10 cents).
