NEED PROOF? READ THESE 10 QUESTIONS & ANSWERS!

1. IS YOUR "LOCAL GUY" OPEN WHEN YOU NEED THEM?

Your private guy is probably open only 2-4 hours per day. Most Offshore sportsbooks are open 24/7, 365 days a year. Why? Because they're not worried about getting their doors kicked in, and getting hauled off to the station house, like the local guys are. This is not a problem for a legal offshore book. On a roll with the early games of the day? Want to go for a big score? You can't do that if your sportsbook's closed.

2. WILL YOUR SPORTSBOOK ALWAYS PAY YOU PROMPTLY WHEN YOU WIN?

Legal offshore books are large, financially solid companies. Have you ever been "stiffed" by a local guy who gets himself into trouble because his other customers don't pay him, or because he operates with a short bankroll, or because he gets busted by the local authorities? This doesn't happen with legal, regulated sportsbooks.

3. DOES YOUR PRIVATE GUY PAY YOU BONUSES?

Most legal offshore books pay you bonuses when you sign up the first time, and some even on every re-deposit of funds. Private books DON'T PAY BONUSES!

4. DOES YOUR LOCAL BOOK OFFER GAMBLERS' INSURANCE?

Not likely! Some offshore books pay back a percentage of any money you may lose, once or twice a year. Private books don't do that.

5. DID YOU EVER HAVE DISPUTES WITH YOUR LOCAL GUY OVER BETS YOU MADE?

Private books don't use computers or tape record bets for obvious reasons. There's no "you said.no I didn't, etc" with a legal book, they will just play you back a recording of your bet, and you'll hear exactly what was said on the call.

6. HAS CREDIT BETTING WITH YOUR PRIVATE BOOK EVER CAUSED YOU A FINANCIAL PROBLEM?

Legal offshore books don't offer credit.You can only lose what you have on deposit with them. In other words, "you can bet WITH your head, not over it!"

7. CAN YOU BET SPORTS, PLAY CASINO GAMES AND PLAY POKER WITH YOUR LOCAL BOOK VIA THE INTERNET?

Only legal offshore books offer you those options. It's a VERY convenient, accurate, efficient, and confidential way to play.

8. DID YOUR PRIVATE GUY EVER SHUT YOU OUT OF A GAME BECAUSE HIS TELEPHONE LINES WERE BUSY?

Legal offshore books generally have hundreds of lines and employees available at game time to take your wagers, so this never happens. Local guys generally only have one or two lines available, and get overloaded at crunch time.

9. ARE YOU A HIGH ROLLER, OR SOMEONE WHO LIKES TO PLACE BIG BETS WHEN YOU'RE ON A GOOD RUN?

Most private books, because of their limited financial resources, only accept moderate size wagers. Even if they do, what are the chances of them paying you if you make a giant score? Legal Offshore sportsbooks offer high limit play, and will definitely pay you when you win.

10. DO YOU LIKE TO BET A WIDE VARIETY OF SPORTS & PROPOSITIONS?

Virtually ALL local books only offer a limited menu of sports and propositions, and even if they do, the odds et a 10 cent baseball line with your private book? Can you bet half-time lines, quarter lines, teasers or pleasers with him? Can you bet on elections, current events, TV reality shows, player props or unusual sporting events? Legal offshore books offer a tremendous selection of betting options at fair odds.
