somebody check this guys ip

my money is on CR

Greg4567 · Sep 15, 2003

Peteep--I can understand that and that is your perogative. You are free to play wherever you want of course. I just think making a blanket statement saying a book is shit when you really do not know is wrong. I was not offended, but thank you for the apology. I just think bashing anyone, without knowing what you are talking about is wrong.

Jazz · Sep 15, 2003

In their FAQ, this book claims they have 'one of the finest reputations in the off-shore gambling world'.

I have never heard of them. I am curious who else here has heard of them before today.

agreeen · Sep 15, 2003

General..

I could name about 50 that are not on the list...what is the criteria that you are looking for? Just that they have a web site? Strictly Post-up?...Years in business?

let me know or you e-mail me at agreeen@aol.com

Jazz · Sep 15, 2003

Ah. Now I see why someone might wish to recruit players - not saying you are, Greg. Though this book has inactivated the 'right-click' function to prevent cutting-and-pasting, their affiliate program pays the referrer (who would presumably refer his friends, etc) 10% of his net loss per month, with an immediate 20% cash referral bonus.

jerseymike111 · Sep 15, 2003

Greg..It's just that they are two new,so why take a chance.
Besides you gives any book the benefit of the doubt

How did you find this book,are you a post up player? If so what made you pick this place?
Welcome to the forum.

agreeen,

Please list any Sportsbooks that you have used or know of. Please supply a link and rate the book for us.

3. No Pay. (NP)
4. Not Known. (NK)

Just post what you know in the Url thread and I will update.

Thanks

Greg4567 · Sep 15, 2003

Jazz--I am not sure what you are saying here? I do not know how their referral program works. I started playing there because a buddy of mine was and he had a good experience with them. I just got a little upset because people are bashing Saturn when they admit they have never played with them. If they have never played with them, how can they bash them?

Greg4567 · Sep 15, 2003

Jerseymike--Like I said, I am a post up player who went there because a friend of mine liked them. That's all. It just does not seem right to bash a book if you do not know about them. You shouldnot immediately dismiss something as shit if you do not know.

Jazz · Sep 15, 2003

Fascinating rule: Saturn reserves the right to either void bad line wagers OR 'to correct the error and settle the affected bets at the correct odds'.

Anyone other than me see an incredible opportunity for a 'heads I win, tails you lose' shot by the book??? Say they were slow to move a line, you bet the Lakers -3, others had it at -5.5. The book decides to take a shot, waiting to see what happens. If the Lakers cover the -3, they void the 'bad line' bet. If they don't cover, they take your money at the 'corrected' line and/or odds.

No thanks.

Greg, others can speak for themselves, I am not bashing them, just evaluating them on the basis of their rules. That rule I mentioned is enough to keep me away, not that I bet bad lines but that there never is any real definition of what a bad line is, except that it's whatever the book claims it is.

I'd be interested in knowing where they earned their 'one of the finest reputations' from - the guys here at the Rx will know if they have one, I would suppose.

Jazz · Sep 15, 2003

Lander, good work - how do I look at the HTML definition?

Greg4567 · Sep 15, 2003

Jazz--Good question. I will have to ask them the next time I make a bet about that. Thanks for the heads up.

But, NO ONE has still answered my question. Why does everyone on this forum bash a book they are not familiar with? Isn't that doing a disservice to the posters here? We all want to have multiple good outs to try and find the best line. So, if someone here does not know about a book, bashes it, and keeps people from betting there based on his bashing, if the book is actually a good out, everyone loses.

Greg4567 · Sep 15, 2003

Jazz--Since I am new to this, please explain to me. If I was betting at Olympic (or some other book you guys love here) and the line was 3 instead of 5.5, what would they do with it? Please let me know. Thanks.

Jazz · Sep 15, 2003

Greg: you should probably ask your friend for half his monthly 10% take off you, if you are losing.

"Wagers taken on an incorrect/mistaken line due to human and/or computer error may be deemed "no action".In the event that this occurs, management reserves the right to either void any affected wagers or to correct the error and settle the affected bets at the correct line."

I'd ask them if they would notify you before they corrected the bet - also, if you're gone, what will they do.

Never mind, Lander, all I had to do was click on 'Send' and choose the option to send it to me as a page, then I simpy cut-n-pasted from the page within my email.

Here's their affiliate program:

Www.SaturnSports.com is always looking to add new players to our family. If you know someone who gambles and you refer them to our site, YOU earn money off their net losses. Call us at 1-866-608-5700 and let us know who you want to refer -- we will call him for you if you like. Or, simply contact the gambler you know and have him open an account with us. When he does, make sure he puts your name into his application regarding how he was referred to us. Once he makes a deposit, YOU get a 20% deposit bonus into your account IMMEDIATELY.

Each month we will monitor the net win/loss of the player you referred. If he wins for the month, it is on us and we pay him. If he loses for the month, we give YOU a 10% bonus of his net loss each month into your gambling account. The more the players you refer lose, the more you win. There is no limit to your earnings. The more players you generate, the more we pay. And the best thing is once your players register under you, they remain yours and you have unlimited earning potential for life. The net loss is calculated at the end of each month and all monies you earn are placed into your gaming account within one week.

This is YOUR chance to own your own sportsbook with no risk. If the players you refer win, we pay them. If they lose, we pay YOU. It's that easy. Talk to all the players you know and refer them to www.SaturnSports.com TODAY.

Jazz · Sep 15, 2003

Greg, depends on the book. At a top-level book like Pinnacle, very rare to see that but they would honor it. At lesser books, some would honor it and others might try not to. That's where the LACK of a hard definition of a 'bad line' comes into play.

lander · Sep 15, 2003

Good stuff Jazz. You can also read any JavaScript imports that they are trying to hide .. in this case ..

<script language="JavaScript1.2" src="saturn.js"></script>

// sportsbooksoftware.js 2003.04.04 por adolfo@tecni.com

IE = (document.all);
var tecnicom_url ='http://saturnsports.com';
var tecnicom_name=' saturnsports.com ';
// -----------------------------------------------
function tecnicom_favorite() { window.external.AddFavorite(tecnicom_url, tecnicom_name); }
function tecnicom_home(Browser) { Browser.style.behavior='url(#default#homepage)'; Browser.setHomePage(tecnicom_url); }

function tecnicom_go(targ,selObj,restore){
eval(targ+".location='"+selObj.options[selObj.selectedIndex].value+"'");
if (restore) selObj.selectedIndex=0;
}

function tecnicom_rclick(e)
{
if (navigator.appName == 'Netscape' && (e.which == 3 || e.which == 2)) return false;
else if (navigator.appName == 'Microsoft Internet Explorer' && (event.button == 2 || event.button == 3)) {
alert(tecnicom_name); return true;
}
// window.focus();
return true;
}
document.onmousedown=tecnicom_rclick;
document.onmouseup=tecnicom_rclick;
if (document.layers) window.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEDOWN);
if (document.layers) window.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEUP);
window.onmousedown=tecnicom_rclick;
window.onmouseup=tecnicom_rclick;

//window.focus();

here's there annoying 'right click' code

Jazz · Sep 15, 2003

Oooohhh, how I HATE having that disabled!!!

Btw, Greg, your friend probably knows whether you are winning or losing every month due to that referral pgm - you may not care, you may care - just so you are aware.
