Ever heard of Gamebookers.com. Cricket soft line alert

truthteller · Dec 1, 2003

Anyone heard of or play at www.gamebookers.com. I need opinions before signing up.

They have a line up on the England/ Sri Lanka test that will start tonight for the Draw at +100.

This is a very soft line since the whole tour so far has been affected by rain and the forecast is for more rain on this match. So a good probability of a draw here.

So if you bet cricket, this is a good line. However, I need opionions on this book.

Solid as a rock, but the limits are all over the place, they may let you bet 5dimes on this or $10.

My buddy plays there and says the same as SP. He can try and make a wager and he doesn't know if the max is $20 or $25k they will take. I am exaggerating a bit but there is no apparent rhyme or reason behind it. If there is he hasn't figured it out.

IASBet has the draw at 1.97 for the $1.00
they are safe but slightly less odds.

Proabably should make sure of the line too,

regardless of the odds compiler, seems gamebookers odds are always wrong on third party sites.

IMO Sri Lanka is the value here.

England's bowlers are very inexperienced in the conditions and pitches of the asian sub-continent.

Jip,

I agree SL is the favourite here because of Muralitharan. However, I am going with the draw here solely on the weather.

Sodium, I checked on gamebookers and they had it at +100.
