For the record
During the four years I have been head mod here at the Rx I have received hundreds of complaints about various sports books and not once has anyone complained to me about roulette at BODOG being rigged.
Threads like this one do a lot of damage to not only the book involved but the Rx also because without a doubt some people will read it and believe that BODOG is foolish enough to rig a sure winner like roulette.
Obviously sponsors like BODOG are not easy to come by so whenever a claim is made that they are cheating we have to do what we can to make sure the truth is brought out. In this case I have noting to go on because the information is third hand at least.
I have no problem with someone who has a real provable problem with a book and comes forward. I will always be ready to assist that person immediately but when I read something like "I heard this or that about a certain book" there is little I can do to see that the truth gets posted.
Anyone can post anything on these forums but without proof the post is like any other kind of unsubstantiated claim that are all over the internet is pure supposition.
The post that generated this thread at 2+2 is by a poster named Stars who has 57 posts there and everyone is about some kind of scam or another. This is the one post he made about BODOG:
I've seen a few threads here about bodog also... if you play their roulette game and cover all the numbers except one... almost 50 percent of the time that number will hit. Bodog's casino is pathetically rigged. And they even say somewhere on their site that they are losing money because of the economy. Those two things correlate.
So he says he saw a few threads about BODOG and their roulette game but no link to them or other proof is available. Then he says without evidence that BODOG's casino is pathetically rigged and despite that claims that the casino is losing money because of the economy. Makes no sense. Regardless of the economy a rigged game of any sort has to make money.
There is no way to defend a business or person against unproven allegations so I will not even try.
Regarding poster Stars at 2+2 most of his other posts are about poker sites using bots etc.

BODOG has been a sponsor here longer than I have been a mod here (going on 6 years) and have had plenty of detractors over the years yet today they still pay their winners and remain a reliable book to use for the average player.
All I can say to anyone is believe what you think is the real truth.
Thanks, wilheim
