Future tip to the wise:

When a new book comes along and has a guy running it who looks "Jon" on the right, have some common sense and ask yourself wtf should make you feel good about sending this guy money like your money is safe and you're dealing with an upstanding guy. That picture alone has me shaking my head that I had seen it before, and gladly trusted this book and ran up a now high balance of monopoly money.

Some SBR posters photoshop:

Am I the only one who is slightly surprised he writes as well as he does?

Not sure what you guys are talking about, he writes horrible imo

I was thinking based on his tattoo, maybe he'd die before stiffing players?



But now with CS confirming Jon was $4.50 per hour Youwager employee in 2005, I guess it's not likely.

Sorry guys I knew this part, as pm to microbob before I was posting much here indicated, that Jon is a fictional SBR character just at the time didn't know it was as serious.

He's no Shakespeare, but he's not illiterate either. Maybe my judgment is just clouded after having to sift through so many of the usual SBR posts before I see a complete sentence.

Bill Dozer doesn't know jack.

I had to LOL @ Public companies like Bet365. The CEO of the perceived top authority on sportsbooks doesn't know Bet365 is a private company? I mean its not even relevant just funny and reflects his industry knowledge. I would wager you could team every person at SBR together and give us an industry quiz test on anything a global audience wanted to know regarding betting sites and I'd outscore the entire team combined myself. They'd beat me on the Costa Rica books if allowed to give honest answers.

So the rest of his post is BetIslands was rated B and we're not sure what happened? Bill true or not: Approximately 80% of BetIslands player base came from SBR? true or not, Bill? Fill me in.

LOL - I don't though I could actually feel bad for Jon. He was a $4.50/h YouWager clerk and got to play owner for a while and is now taking the fall. The guy probably didn't know the books he was acting for were going to go stiff job.

This 7Red news is lol though. Obviously be very careful of them and EZStreet.

Why? Do tattoos kill brain cells?

soooo, prop is very, very smart regarding the gambling industry, but is giving us all (interesting) info after the **** hit the fan.

i mean, i guess i appreciate the knowledge after the fact, but what the **** bro. you have been a mod here long enough, and posted about hating sbr since day 1, and you didn't give anyone here 1 piece of a headsup.

by all means keep posting the inside scoop (who are you anyways? to have all this inside info) but realize that every time you say, 'oh i knew this a long time ago', you're pissing people here off.

exactly.

lotta mother****ers are pretty smart in hindsight today.

PP, i like you. you're our (or my) bridge to the inside. but wtf man. i lost in the triple digits, a lot of us lost in the 4 and 5 digits and you're kinda coming off like, 'i knew all this **** before'.

The way I just calculated it, con man Walker and con man Dozer just offered hedge hog $430 give or take (in SBR points no less) for his 10k loss. I lost just over 9k and I find this to be a total slap in the face of an offer after all the money they made pimping this **** book when players are out an estimated 1.5 million as a result. From what you can read today, every book and everybody in the gaming industry in Costa Rica knew about this coming and how non financially stable they were all along. How can sbr be located down there and post the **** they did today and the past 3 years with a straight face?? Guess the money makes it completely easy

Time to update that FAQ prop. I know you'll do a good job

That was a joke. SBR isn't giving anyone anything.

Yeah I see now. At least people have some sense of humor.

You don't happen to know anybody in Colombia who can make up trip up there and plant a few kilos of Colombian yayo in Walker's home or something like that do you?

If I knew players fund were at risk I'd be first to warn.

One of first time I ever mentioned BetIsland on this forum was here and note the part in bold.

Also in this same thread I already covered the 7RedSports spin aspect of BetIslands. The only time I knew they were in financial trouble was 5 or 6 days ago and payouts already stopped at that point.

I knew Jon was basically a character but didn't know there was harm over that. Just in case this helps:

* Ron Sacco did not start BetCRIS
* Clive Archer was only ever a figure head
* Dave Johnson was not the owner of WagerWeb.
* Simon Noble was not the CEO of PinnacleSports
* 5Dimes was not Tony's first sportsbook.
* Tony's name is not Tony Williams
* Mickey's name is not Mickey
* LOL @ Bodog Indians

That's just a few items I can quickly think of. I learned BetIslands was insolvent after it was too late. I did mention several times various places to be careful of them, but didn't really think it was anywhere near a code red or even code orange risk.

Start with Atlanta Georgia imo, never know who's going to turn in Columbia

All I can do is try and laugh. Sbr tops this off by upgrading Wagerweb to a C- today

And is it just me having problems or is this normal when an sbr book fails, because I can't read any thread page by page, it's just first page to last page viewing?

sucks but knew they would slip that wagerweb upgrade in at some point.

their forum is working fine for me.

Just started a thread titled "who will be sbr's next affiliate scam?". Everybody should go put in their nomination before Walker or Dozer deletes it and bans me

Sick. SBR mod Elihu Feustal A.K.A Justin7 is on that list. I guess he got paid though. These people are all crooks.

hoo-leeeee ****.

I woke up to get message database was leaked at AskTheBookie. I have no association with that site but just helped as a volunteer doing rewrites and edits. In case anyone already read it, might want to return, it is a bit more detailed and coherent now.

i looked at it, shook my head then went to take a shower. it was only a couple minutes later that i realized wtf i was looking at.

seeing all those numbers there like that. seeing my name next to my account number...ugh. this is where as a younger man i would be saying something about i hope in the future i run into some of these mother****ers...

here's to hoping there's an sbr bash this summer. ******s

wowwww. thats unreal.

bill dozer.

Maybe you should replace SBR in the FAQ with your ratings site prop.
