I'll start it out and some might be suprised but my #1 all time favorite book is


WSEX!! :party:



I have been with these guys the longest and I can never even remember the slightest dispute with this book. I have entered the wrong game from time to time and they have always deleted the bet for me and with a smile I might add.
As far as getting paid this is never an issue. The software is outstanding and I can place a bet in seconds. The only thing that they could improve on is getting rid of the drop down menu and let us choose our own wager amount. See you guys in a few months for the College Football season. Hope everyone is enjoying the summer and I can't wait for some football. Later boys and girls!!

No brainer with Pinny. Low juice on sides, totals, and run lines. I also appreciate the flexibility of being able to adjust the run lines and totals in half run increments. Never have to sweat getting paid or in a timely manner.

My only criticism is that they don’t offer team totals in baseball.

#1 All-Time

Local guy who has been around here before there was a word "off-shore" since 1979 with no paper trails. Just a cocktail or dinner on Tuesday or Wednesday night.:toast:

So, did you build his pool or his rec room or the whole house?

The book that pays me today, does not cut my limits, or boot me. Like Diogenes looking for the honest man, I have yet to find this book.

Best Wishes...OF:howdy:

Better to build a pool and be able to take a dip rather than some off shore guy I never met's house or lavish trips to Vegas and beyond or pay his phone bills.

why Grande? no overnight lines, last major book to post a line, software nothing special, no props or selection to speak of. no reduced juice.

solid yes, industry leader, payer , I mean a B+ book easy but top book?

Grande's website is irrelevant so talking about their software as a reason to bet with them is pointless. They could careless about post up or on-line gaming.

Just the fact that Journyman states he can't win there tells you about the line strength. No internet backdoor moves available or overnite line injury feasts.

The Grande owner is what makes the book an A+ out and without him their name would mean nothing.

An older fella' named Mike ...


No limits,no cash up front,no hassels,

..would let me have action even after a

game had started.


It's a shame I took him to the cleaners,


quite a few times.


Couple of plays that stick out...


San Fran vs San Diego in Super Bowl XXIX,


and G-Men vs Broncos in XXI.

I know of some San Francisco agents that took a bath on that SF/SD SuperBowl as well by having their players in off shore outs that were taking national and Vegas group action on SD keeping the line down while all their guys had the Niners.

Never had a problem one with either CRIS or Delmar after 6 years.

If you wager more than a nikel average you have to like Pinny. Best lines.

If your greater than a dime player you have to like Pinny, large limits on sides & totals, and large limits for overnights. You don't have to resubmit your bet 10 times to wager 5 dimes.

Low juice & high limits. Too many folks underestimate the effect of low juice. If you can average 3-5 cents better per wager that is huge over the course of hundreds or thousands of bets.

If you play steam, or your capping happens to put you on steam plays more often than not, you have to like Pinny. Higher limits and lower juice means lines don't move as quickly during steam moves, and steam plays will yield the greatest juice reduction vs. other books.

I look at it this way. 3-5 cents per 2 dime wager is like Pinny buying me a steakhouse dinner w/wine for me and the mrs. for EVERY WAGER I make. That's a hellufadeal. Now if only the local steakhouse would get satellite TV so I can watch my games during dinner....
