I remember Roberto mentioning that they have an escrow account held or audited by a 3 party accounting firm. It raises alot of questions especially because of the PANAM fiasco, but I do know that the government in Curacao is totally different in all aspects then that of Panama. Much tighter regulations and strickly inforced.

14-5 on 2-teamers and 7-1 on 3-teamers!?!?

WOW!

Will have to investigate this shop a little further.

that almost there parlay feature is sweet. what are their rules concerning that feature?

 

[trytrytry]

Our ALMOST THERE PARLAY is only applicable to football and basketball wagers placed against the spread. MONEY LINES ARE EXCLUDED. If a "push", or "no action", occurs within a parlay then that wager is automatically inelegible to collect within this program. In the ALMOST THERE PARLAY program, your original wager will not be returned.

Example:

A 7 team parlay with 1 loser and six winners will pay 2.5/1 ($100 parlay will pay $250)


Our ALMOST THERE PARLAY is not automatically graded, and therefore, you are required to notify us within 24 hours to collect your winnings. Please contact our Customer Service Department

Played with them a bit, but their volume is WAY down. I placed 2 bets one day, about 8 hours apart. They only booked about 30 bets within that 8 hours, this was on a Saturday or Sunday. Should be busy.

Anyways, made a little bit, they give you the first withdrawal free, then $30 there after. I requested a little over high 4 figure in 2 days and was paid with in 30 mins each time.

I still have a balance, and feel comfortable at the moment with them. I will continue to play. I also like the fact, there are no questions asked when withdrwaling.

but like any new book, tread with caution

i started up with them a couple of weeks ago only because they offer 3 team 10 point teasers and 4 team 13 point teasers(no totals allowed) at even money k:

 

[trytrytry]

30 bets in 8 hours??



is that by ticket number that you figured that out??



that is scary low. I make more tickets than that in 8 minutes on Sunday.



that cant be true, they must have the ticket numbers not telling the whole story, or they have many numbers in parallel going up or something.

I posted this on MW, when Russ welcomed these guys about a week ago. Let me quote that post:

My .02:

While I was working for SBR, I drove to BCN with John and we met with former GM Chaz and one of the owners. The premises were not large, but it was obvious these guys had made a significant investment on equipment. The place was set up traditionally: a stage and 3 or 4 rows of stations for clerks. The server room looked well equipped as well.

In our conversation with Chaz, I learned these guys are not really offering anything different. As a matter of fact, they did emphasize on the fact that they did not want to book anything that was sharp, semisharp or similar. Chaz said he was not going after the forum crowd -usually sharper than your average player- and that they were not looking to have a big presence in the industry but only after a couple of years, once they had had the chance to build up a base of loyal customers.

The lines were to be managed by Chaz himself, based on 'bookin-2-faces'. He said he was not looking forward to being the most opinionated 'out' in the industry. Actually, he didn't have any plans for BCN to become an 'out'. But if as Russ reports Chaz is gone, all this info is outdated. I don't know who's running the helm there.

I did believe the only 'different' perk offered by this shop was the interests paid on balances in the escrow account. And regarding these issues, I'd like to post a couple of questions. Maybe they will answer in the forum.

- Same question: How is this an escrow account? And how are the interests paid?

- If the interest is to be paid on the balances in the escrow account, what advantage do losing players get? IF I understand correctly, these interests would be paid only to those players that have a balance. Well, most of the times players with a balance are either inactive or winning players. If my assumption is correct and BCN only pays the interest to the winners, wouldn't that be rewarding players that are already beating the house?

JMHO and a couple of simple, yet valid questions.

That is ticket numbers. That is what REALLY concerned me. I figure they are new, and trying to drum up some business.

But IMHO, these forums for advertisement have to many sharps........just ask Panam.

Tread with caution.

Also, this is a norm, it is not unusual for me to place a bet one hour, then an hour later place another and it is only showing a difference of 3 ticket numbers.
