A classic Biff post. Little info and a lot of bullshit. Oh yeah, and the always present "why should I help you for nothing?"
Biff, are you a hooker? /infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif

But NOT naming the books that you THINK will survive you are slandering the entire industry. Shoot you got me scared to post up with Olympic! /infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif If you are not prepared to name names and take the heat then SHUT THE FVCK UP because you are NOT doing any favors by scare-mongering, because you are instigating a run on ALL sports books (even those who aren't on your death watch) which could jeapordize the funds of gamblers. It's too bad you don't made the bucks that the shrink makes but if you don't like it then start your own web site and post this garbage there. It looks to me that you're nothing but a jealous shrink wannabee who is using tabloid "journalism" to make a name for yourself and as far as I'm concerned shrink should delete your posts and boot you (again) because all your are posting is useless drivel for the sole purpose of advancing your "destroy the industry" agenda. /infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif

Treat Biff like you would the National Enquirer. Just print out his posts and let your dog shit on them. Besides getting a horse pick correct earlier this year he's added nothing to this forum's knowledge. He tried to prove his "5 outa 8" handicapping theory and failed there too. He just craves attention.
The amount of merger activity this year is below last year's. (Shrink do you agree?) The truth is this is a very difficult industry to consummate a marriage.
Look no further than Allworld. A seemingly perfect acquisition candidate had both feet in the grave before a new book, pari, stepped in. Everyone else had taken a pass.
Consolidation would be healthy but will for the most part continue to be shotgun weddings.

Ever heard of Grande or Tradewinds?
Or won't these guys survive?

Well it is almost football season and all those fixed college games will be starting up very soon.
Would it be to much trouble for you to post which ones that you really think are fixed, and which would be the right side to bet on.
Now all of this nmust be done prior to kickoff, so that we will all have ample time to find our guy and make a great big wager. /infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif

As I've said before, I DO NOT GET PAID TO BE A WATCHDOG. You do realize when you click banners off of the watchdog sites you're putting money in their pockets (also when you read the banners). That makes it THEIR responsibility to name the names. I'm only reporting on an overall trend.
What I WILL say is that I don't know WHICH books will survive, but when the shakeout and consolidation phase is over, there will be about a dozen that will collapse into about six primary operations. That's enough variety to satisfy the customer base, without being spread so thin as to jeopardize their existence.
Considering that Olympic offered two dimes to people screwed over by Aces, I'd say that's a good sign for them, since the last thing a book in bad shape would do is fork over a lot of cash like that.
If you want to know who will survive, pay attention this football season. You're going to see a mass exodus from the marginal casinos towards the established operations where people KNOW the owners are filthy rich. The exodus will be very public and make it apparent to everyone who the winners and losers will be.
I can't name them because the market hasn't named them yet. It's like in the railroad era where there were 3,000 railroads until Vanderbilt went on his acquisition binge and dominated the industry.

You don't know shit and you're just guessing and blowing smoke out of your ass, making deliberately vague predictions just to scare the crap out of everybody because you need the attention and to get your name back on the map. Thank you for clearing this up.

It's about time Peep moved this thread to the Rubber Room where it belongs.

I COULD give the list I THINK is going to make it. It's usually the same small group of outs that the high rollers have nothing but praise for (and not for "Aces" reasons).
I gave a list of criteria for the ones I think would make it. If you want to know a place to post up to, ask around. Ask the VERY high rollers where they play. Usually they go to the books with sharp lines, but they ALWAYS get paid.
Next season, seeking out those juicy lines is going to be problematic. A lot of these places are going to lose revenue (especially with the legal climate), and their OVERHEAD is going to destroy them.
I'm stating the obvious, and just giving a heads-up to people that maybe they should worry more about getting paid than getting that phantom half-point on a wager they can't collect on if they win.

Every single book doesn't move on air.
I cite CRIS and GRANDE.
They move on money, not air..
Can you dispute this??

ALL Biff's threads are like this.
They all "move on air".
Some people like them, some don't. If you don't like this one, don't bother clicking on anymore of them, because they will be the same.
I like his posts, and some of them stimulate good conversation.
