Improving Books
---------------
Panam - These guys are getting better on a daily basis. Offering more props, earlier lines than they were a few weeks back. Coupled with their already low juice & fast payouts these guys may have vaulted into the most improved book this year.
BlueGrass - Doug and Ted have gone from virtually unknown to one of the few books that takes on all shapes and sizes of wise guys. Good CS & lightening fast payouts. They survived two seperate runs on the bank after unfounded rumors without missing a beat. Definately on the up and up.
Hollywood - One of the best just got better by getting into the reduced juice market. A MUST have for pucks.
Sirbet - The first IGW book with balls??? Boatload of props, unique lines make Sirbet a great out. Low limits are the only drawback, but at a nickel a pop MOST of us can still get down without any problems.
Falling Books
-------------
Fidelity - Rude, horendous CS. Loads of spam make this an agrevating experience. However, if you like this treatment FF will pay you, and there is some value to be found for the first 3 days before they dual line you (if you're smart enough to shop)
eWinner - Apparently stiffs. Doesn't look like they'll get their act together anytime soom.
Canbet - They went from being among the best values for hockey to being about the worst. I've been disappointed with Canbet ever since they became English.
Undecided
---------
Rio - Started cold calling, which is annoying. But they continue to pay fast and provide the BEST CS (imho) in the industry. Their promises to offer more props and their new venture ReducedJuice.com (-105) might spring these guys up to improving very soon.
Royal - Lots of rumors, and a few slow pays last month, but nothing bad as of late. Lay107 offers a ton of value, but the verdict is going to have to stay open until these rumors are disproved, or Stings finally visits them and figures out how good/bad they really are.
Nothing new, but still great.
