I see this is a new sports book listed on pregame action.com.... Does anyone know anything about this book and if they are reliable or not? I am looking for a new out and am wondering if these guys are worth opening an account with. I find it strange they are one of the only sports books still with a .com address. I find this a little strange...

This is kind of surprising considering that pretty much every other book on Pregame Action is B or better.  Top Bet is under the futurebet umbrella.  The flagship book of Futurebet is Oddsmaker, the biggest scam site in the world.  It's hard to tell now days.  1vice is still a D because of their ties to Apex but I have had zero complaints, and have heard zero negative feedback.  Playing with rogue shops is all about risk/reward.  Are you wiling to put your funds at some risk for a lucrative bonus.  50% FP isn't going to do it for me.

You want a handicapping tip?  Spend as much time getting a good number as you do researching games. Depositing/withdrawing/depositing/withdrawing is a bitch, but I guarantee you will lose less, or win more.  I can't guarantee that for any other piece of advice

I agree with you Lloyd, I also found it weird that pregame added this one book with this kind of rating.  Am interested to see what RJ and Johnny's take is on this matter.

Do these books offer Pregame $$$ for listing them maybe?

Even if this is the case why would you risk such a big name for a sponsor of a D rated sports book?

Ummm, I don't think there's any maybe about it.  All recommendations need to be taken with a grain of salt.   Do you see a single SBR sponsored book lower than B? No.  People don't want to pay for sponsorship only to be given a lousy rating.  Look what happened to betphoenix's rating after they stopped paying for ads.  It's not to say those aren't good books, some might just be a little inflated.  Like Legends being an A is ridiculous.  Betonline should not be a B+ either IMO
