Stay far away from World Wager Sportsbook

anyone that is new into this industry and is looking for a book, stay far FAR and i mean FARRRR away from World Wager. not only did it take them a combined 7 weeks to cashout 6k, they fought me every step of the way. i was givin' the run around for the entire time, this place is very shady ... they've also cancelled my wagers because they have a -1.5 point rule, meaning if the spread differs -1.5 from any other sportsbook line, they have the right to cancel the wager. they do this on purpose, hell they could technically cancel any wager they wanted. i had been questioned by the line manager if i was cheating or getting the inside track because i was winning. they flagged my account three times in 7 weeks to see if i was cheating, that was the supposed delay.

i've currently withdrawn every penny from this site and never again will put my hard earned money into this money pit. this book sucks ass and the manager should be shot. they have no phone support, they never respond to emails, and customer support consists of a gay live chat. awful book, awful payouts, and awful site. don't ever get burned by these assholes.

i've now officially listed into pinnacle ... i'm sure they are worlds better. needed to get this steam off my chest.

yes i'm very fortunate to have gotten my money from them ... i had started reading reviews two weeks ago and found out that sportsbookreview has them at an F- ... can't get any worse than that. i'm counting my lucky stars right now that i did fortunately get my money out. i also saw the site has been blacklisted and put on the "RUN AWAY" list. all this after i had around 13k in that account ... lol. need to do research before giving these shady costa rican books your money.

Also very quick payout and good customer service by phone, or if by email through account, they answer you in max 1.5 hours.

HOw does someone ever open an account with a small sportsbook that no one has heard of? Promotion or something? Just curious why everyone wouldnt use one of the big boys from the start. Its just that most have never even heard of books like this. Where did you find it?

found it because someone showed me it in 2004 ... i was brand new to gambling and didn't know "the big books" and "the good books" ... they offer crazy nice bonuses, 50% on neteller or so ... only thing is you gotta roll it over like 10x ... they are a huge shit book, been reading and the owner is supposidley connected to vietnameese (spelling?) mafia.

used them when i began betting in 2004 ... stopped in early 2005 after i had lost my entire account. didn't bet again until august '05, used them again and had no real problem with cashing out, i had completly stopped using them this NBA season as i had transfered to MVP. i still had around 3k in worldwager at the time. started using worldwager about two months ago again, started cashing out the rest of the funds i had in there. they gave me a huge hassle, i mean every run around you could think of they gave me. finally, i'm all cashed out and will never use them again obviously. however, i will continue to view their lines as i can find a huge edge with what they do as far as other books do.

thanks for your concern terps!

BetOnSports lines very different!

I have a small account with BOS and noticed that the lines are noticeably different from other sportsbooks. Today I like the Cards the line at BOS is -330 when other books are -230. Thats a big difference when betting large amounts or even small amounts for that matter. I'm wondering how their line could be so different. Wouldn't reccomend BOS if your going to bet a fav!! Check their site and compare.
