It can be done, but I agree completely with most in that it seems impossible. I am merely stating a case for the best case scenario fully aware it isn't going to happen overnight. Bringing up the issues and getting everyone to talk about best practices while slowly implementing measures is the best we can hope for. Sure it is utopia, but if we ever did get there the business would boom and everyone would win. Problem is that some that are doing just fine with the status quo have little to gain over the short-term and would only adopt it if others got it to work. That is the biggest problem, but it surely doesn't hurt talking about it and having all the talent that trolls this board putting in extra ideas of how to make things better.

Are we even guaranteed in Australia? Maybe people would go to jail for stealing? Does that mean we get paid?
Thanks

It all sounds good but you'll never get these books to show how much they have in players post up money.Only solution play with the books that are cosistently mention on this fourm that have been around for at least five years and have never had any complaints about no-pays.Top five books to have money at are in no specific order Chris, Pinacle , Hollywood, Olympic, WWTs, Sportsbook.com You can't find any complaints about no-pays with this list.
Bill, good job. Great post. You bring the forum up a notch. We need more productive thought like you've brought to the table.
Some things come to mind Bill:
The books that are solvent have earned that trust already. A commission doesn't need to tell us who they are. Those few books are not going to put their business on the street anyway. There is a reason MOST books set up shop in the third world. THEY DON'T WANT TO BE REGULATED.
No book that does billions will give the commission there real 'books'. Who's going to pay the army of auditors to audit the 'books' on a weekly basis? Could a book in trouble set up phony accounts and 'beat' them to inflate or disguise their bottom line?.....ScottyS
