Sportsbooks, can they be trusted?

As sports wagering becomes bigger and bigger each month we all have been forced to use some type of offshore book to take our action. Most of us are not using the infamous bookie anymore (It's still illegal!), and unless you live in Las Vegas our choices are extremely limited to fulfill our fix. Lets face it, some states seem to be warming up to gambling and they realize it generates a tremendous amount tax money for their state. Possibly in the near future more states in this country will accept gambling. But what happened to the Sports Book? Sports wagering has been left behind. I really don't understand why Biloxi and Atlantic City have Casinos that offer table games and poker but no Sports Book. Does this make any sense? Until we have more states that offer Sports Wagering in their Casino's we will have to continue to go offshore to a small, and in most cases poverty stricken country to place our sports wagering. Does this scare anybody? I hear all kinds of story's of bounced checks and payouts never received from offshore clients daily, So, do we continue to trust offshore books, do we have a choice? Do you have a story? good or bad about a book you use or have used in the past. Do we honestly sleep good at night with our money in offshore wagering accounts? Give us your opinion!
