I really don't like any of these books on this list, but I hate to see gamblers lose their money unjustly.

Since when is Betworks in CR?

Very hard to believe TCB is in trouble as they do not like winners and since they can always dump the bets into the pools anyway and collect a rebate, they should have minimal exposure.

Have a hard time thinking Cascade would have problems after one of their best times of the year, MLB.

Sirbet/Ewinner recently and currently is spending money on software, not thinking a cash poor company would be worrying about software.

I don't bet at any of the others, best of luck deducing wtf is going on.

I would be worried about First Fidelity on that list. BETWORKS IS NOT IN COSTA RICA AND IS NOT IN ANY FINACIAL TROUBLE

First Fidelity spent so much money on the scratch off ticket promotion probably put them under.

SIRBET:
Bon Bini Business Center
Schottegatweg Oost 10 Suite J
Willemstad
Curacao
Netherlands Antilles

And once again:

CASCADE is DEFINITELY NOT the book.

Guys;

Truth is Joey C should have not posted just half of the info. That was a mistake. Now, the whole weekend will be a witch hunt and most of the posters will have a bad time trying to guess which of all CR books is going down.

If you guys have funds with books of shaky reputation, withdraw the funds. Play it safe.

Which books have a shake reputation? You guys KNOW this. Read, analyze and be on top of the game. The signals have been out there for quite a while. Look into books with a lot of liquidity complaints.

FatFrank

5Dimes is a solid shop. But it's pretty damn ludicrous that you mention every other book, but the one book where you still might have some financial interest.

Play fair and square. As I've said before, your ethics of work are poor at best. Taking shots at books that are not yours is simply not to be done, unlesss you have a strong argument.

Why did you ignore the posts stating that Cascade is in no financial hardship? May I ask?

I'm no CFO, but I'm getting out of V-Wager until Kenny posts on Monday.

Joey C wrote, "beseiged with massive debt and little cash on hand"

Didnt Cascade just get a cash infusion? Removing them.

This is the kind of stuff I hate about the offshore industry - reduced to guessing games about a post that may or may not be correct. I am a straight-shooter, I don't like guessing games especially where my money is concerned, and I'm also somewhat naive in wondering why Joey C. cannot simply post the books' names. Even reducing the list down to more than 2 would be unfair to a book without the problem, but still considered suspect.

I'm not knocking Joey, I'm just frustrated with these 'between-the-line' guessing games. If you have solid information, please post it, otherwise the guessing is useless to me.

Just IMO

This is ONE HELL OF A marketing ploy for the RX to generate some needed excitement around here! We may find out on Monday that nothing is wrong!

Just got everyone fired up!

Probabgly a serious post though.

But JOEY, the problem you create here isnt fair to the advertisers. ANYONE would have to be a dumbass to send ANY MONEY to these books this weekend until we find out. You at least need to eliminate the list down to about 5 or 6 books in fairness to the other books.

Otherwise, we might as well just go to majorwager and play with those books

Frank, still haven't taken Cascade, nor Blue Grass, off the list. Trying to tell us something?

>Zenpill, welcome to the RX. Nice first post.

Gringo,
Thanks for the welcome. I will be around.

Frank is making this quite interesting, might be to smooth down the news. I'm sure he's got a strong base backing his now surprisingly expected notice.
