History of Sportsbook Review

SBR’s Beginning

In the late 90s, the online gambling industry was off to a fast start. Bookmakers, and those who wanted to be bookmakers, migrated offshore for a share of the growing market. Webmasters followed suit, blindly promoting sportsbooks and their bonus offers with few words of caution.

520ccc.com launched in 1999, showing a different side of online wagering- a dark side that caused players to think twice before sending money offshore. Before Sportsbook Review, few online resources highlighted ethical sportsbooks and even fewer identified rogue books and how they operate. This fresh approach to the online gaming industry earned Sportsbook Review the respect of top bookmakers and players, who now commonly refer to Sportsbook Review as .

Exposing Offshore & Low Quality Sportsbooks

In 2000, SBR worked the industry’s first bailout for 216 victims of Costa Rica-based GoldenBets. In 2001, SBR issued a blanket warning, advising players to avoid sportsbooks located in Costa Rica. SBR went on to identify multiple low quality sportsbooks and their business partners. Many of these rogue operators were forced to close.

SBR continues to expose low quality sportsbooks and irresponsible operators, limiting their ability to profit from unsuspecting bettors. In 2002, SBR developed the first Sportsbook Rating Guide giving all sportsbooks an individual evaluation. SBR Ratings quickly became the standard for how sportsbooks are compared.

Leader in Reviewing Betting Sites (& Online Casinos)

By 2003, SBR had become the undisputed leader arming players with industry information and warnings on dishonest bookmakers. More players joined the best online sportsbooks via Sportsbook Review than all other watchdog and rating sites combined at the time.

Top sportsbooks were eager to quickly and fairly resolve complaints submitted to SBR, recognizing Sportsbook Review as the player’s voice. The ever-increasing volume of valuable player feedback helps to refine sportsbook ratings continuously.

At the end of 2005, SBR broadened communication with readers by offering a posting forum. The following year, SBRforum.com was created to meet the demand for handicapping stats and sports handicapping information.

Later, SBR would add reviews and ratings of online casino and sweepstakes casino operators.
