With football around the corner, a new flood of books will be appearing with ridiculous bonuses trying to scam anyone governed by greed rather then common sense. Different names, same con artists. Got a call from "Richcoastsports"
who I have never heard of but they certainly had my info off some CR book data list. Don't know if they are legit and will never know from personal experience but all the red flags are there. No reputation, unsolicted cold call from a database and for some reason their site only explains deposits and bonuses.....no withdrawal info. Most that use this site are sophisticated enough to know but it can't be stated to often. If it saves even one newbie then it is worth mentioning.

NEVER, NEVER put your money at risk for a little bit more bonus. You can't go wrong limiting yourself to books endorsed by MC. He never has and never will accept any book that is questionable just for the quick advertising buck. The only thing that hurts worse then losing is winning and not being able to collect.

Moose,
Hey...How have you been? Good to see you up and around.
Thanks for the heads up on "Richcoast".
Of course...winning never hurts like losing,lol....but
not being able to collect can really put a sting on the"W".
How's the Canadian Football treating you up in America's Hat??
Pouncing on the hugely touted Hamilton tonight (Sat)??
I see the line has played down to +1.

I wholeheartedly agree with you on the offshore books....
As always....Let Michael guide you to a safe sportsbook if you are uncertain. Use any sportsbook that is endorsed by Bettorsnetwork.

I wish everyone a successful season on the gridiron.

Hey Moose!

Good call on rich coast. Definitely not reputable, stay far away. Besides your cold call story I have also heard of them getting kicked off of two websites for registering as legit users and using their private message features to solict players. Bad news. I hear they may be loosely affiliated with those clowns from Apex.

I am pretty pleased with the lineup of advertisers we will have this year to take us into football. MVP will be entering their 4th year with us and Bodog will be entering their 3rd. In addition to them I have brought in a few new books run by people I know that I think will be a nice compliment. I also am putting the finishing touches on a sports betting area for the site that will replace our current sports book reviews. Lots more info regarding each book we bring on which I think will be very helpful for newbies.

Glad to see our friends like Moose making their way back for football, it's always rather lonely around here during the summer months. You're right, it must be August.

Trying to get the new site done for a Monday launch, hang in there, it is coming

MC

P.S. Listen to Moose and FB, all you need to do is ask me before you deposit any money anywhere. I am always available to answer any questions you may have when it concerns playing online

Could be right about them being associated with Apex as they are advertising on Big Lou's site. He was still advertising for Apex post ups a week after they had folded. Add that to the horse racing syndicate scam Lou ran and the money that Robbie stole to set up PlatinumSB and people can get a sense of who they are trusting with their money. Pinnacle, MVP and Players have been great for me. Looking forward to the new launch. (

FB......I see you are still using the same POD strategy of not allowing anyone to sneak up on you. Best of luck.

Moose...
I see you've caught on to my strategy..lol.
It's the old hit 'em where they ain't approach....

I use the opposite of Satchel Page's advise...Instead of "Don't look back someone might be gaining on you"...I use the time tested "Keep your eyes open and don't lose those tail-lights".

Good Luck,
