V-wager has paid me more times than any other book due to good fortune there for me. Carib has paid me the second most times. In those 2 cases I have had some bigger balances (for me) and always been paid and treated very well.
Pinnacle has taken the most of my money but I feel safe losing it there!

Fish,
Why does Bet 365 only take 50 bucks on futures, and like Pup said they hire complete morons in management that think USOPEN is PAR 72.
So if Management is suspect that is commentary on the company as a whole, it is trickle down.
Im guessing if they are only taking 50's on high vig hold futures they have short Bankroll and slim profit margins ???
Im also guessing the people who were invovlved in 1974 are most likely pushing up daisys now.

Without being able to audit the books, you can't use the term "Safe" with any offshore operation and that includes Pinnacle, Olympic, WSEX, Grande etc. Whatever balance you have at these places should be money you can afford to piss away...othewise you're a fool and WILL be burned at some point if you haven't been already. I'll never forget the people who were supposedly "in the know" telling everyone what a bottomless pit of money Aces Gold was at the time.

GREAT post Senditin....we need to be responsible for ourselves out here and with offshore books IMO also

I currently am laying low at this time so most of my $$ are back home with me, but I keep a couple of dimes out there for crappin around if I should come across something I like. It just so happens those $$ are at the Greek and Pinnacle. I have played at these books almost from the start and I have never even had the slightest problem. You guys take care and I will be back to share what I hope will be another huge year in College Football and Hoops.
I never hear Canbet mentioned. I know their odds are not always the greatest, and they supposedly limit bet amounts, but I have taken a lot of money out of that place the past year, mostly in future bets, never once had a problem. I even banged them back on LA in game 5 against my Det future (obviously that one didn't pay off) but it was still a "scalp", free roll whatever you want to call it, and they never said anyhting about it. I called and the money was sent to my bank acct in less than 24 hrs. When Fla won the National league pennant last year at 75-1 that was a 5 figure withdrawel, and they beat Pin in pay off speed.
Not that that rerally matters since both paid, but as far as getting paid Canbet is as good as they come.
Since I only use those two these days then they are the only two I can comment on now. But I used to use 5 dimes and WSEX and never had a problem with either of them.
But since I am in Vegas more now that is obviously the safest place. Not always the best odds, but they have become a lot better and basically only Pin beats them with any consistancy.

Based on what I've read here and elsewhere, the man with the most integrity in the Offshore business seems to be Spiro at Olympic.
Pinnacle's strength lies in its volume and large capitalization. They won't stiff you because they have way too much to lose. This type of safety, however, is situational ie. it depends on current conditions. I'm not saying they won't pay you if things start getting rough, but we don't know that for sure unless we know something about the integrity of the man at the helm.
A man whose integrity we are sure of on the other hand will pay you no matter what. This is real, lasting safety and therefore my vote is for Olympic.
