ABC ISLANDS

[DOUG]

I DON'T HAVE TO CALL IT A RUNOR ANY MORE. BP. OWNER OF ABC HAS PURCHASED OTHER SPORTS BOOKS IN CURACO. ONE OF THE BOOKS WAS LOOSE LINES.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY BOOKS TRY TO KEEP IT A SECERT WHEN THEY BUY OTHER BOOKS. BP IS A STAND-UP GUY AND HAS ALWAYS RUN A FIRST CLASS OPERATION. GREAT TEASER ODDS.

Gee Doug,

Have you heard of Jay Cohen?

Or does everyone who earns a living off-shore have a get out of jail free card?

Plug in brain before engaging mouth and keyboard.

It's kind of disapointing to see loose lines go, if that's the case. That's where consolidation hurts. Books lose their individuality. Next, we'll have one big book. Not good for players. :mad:

That's a valid point, BUT, on the plus side, it actually creates more safety for the players. These days, with established books with established customer bases, the odds of one book bailing out another are much higher than in the beginning.
