Re: If you were forced to play with just ONE book what would it be?

Matchbook. The chance to play such small juice, the way futures are up virtually all the time, the opportunity to put up a price you like and see if it gets picked up, are pretty unique. I think of Hoffa's recommendation a few months ago and am happy I took it.
 
Re: If you were forced to play with just ONE book what would it be?

I'll second Matchbook as I can normally get a line I like or would play - especially for M.L.B..

For an honorable mention, it would have to be the Greek. They take the larger wagers without blinking an eye and have many options.

Gotta say Pinnacle.

If I only bet spreads/ML's/totals I would say Matchbook put Pinny has more options that I like that Matchbook doesn't offer.

Bet Jamaica (Good C.S.)

I would say Pinny if they still allowed U.S. bettors

If your the recreational player like myself then Betjm.com is the place to be.

Excellent customer service and best payout methods in the biz.

If you like to play props then i would go with 5dimes.com or Thegreek.com

Alot of MB.

My big problem with Matchbook is they dont have all 1st half/2nd half wagers and no parlays.

I'm very surprised that I dont see thegreek or 5dimes yet.

If you want parlays/teasers bang on 5 Dimes until you can't bang no more.

If a person has but only ONE BOOK, they will get screwed one way or another. The solution is to have more outs. :cheers

WSEX- Love the live betting option.

Please elaborate (limits, frequency for the various sports, etc). TIA.

This is just for Live Betting. Not sure what the limit is. I believe you can do a couple dimes worth because you deal in contracts as the smallest unit. Each contract win is worth $100. Contract loss is worth $0. They have done NASCAR. Here the schedule for the week.

Middle Tenn at Troy State 7:00 ET, ESPN2
Illinois vs Duke 9:30 ET, ESPN

Immo, this is what I call very fast money. This can be 5 times faster than craps.

That sucks. No halftime wagers.

5dimes is great.

I guess it would be Bookmaker/Cris for me. 1st one I signed up for that I really liked.


the 1st books I signed up for were sportsbook and sportinteraction
 
Re: If you were forced to play with just ONE book what would it be?

All live betting games have 1/2 time sides and totals.

The traditional book is old news, exchanges are the wave of the future.

You think any will start allowing parlays?
 
Re: If you were forced to play with just ONE book what would it be?

I don't know.

But if they, did I'd be selling them to suckers all day long.

If you are starting one now... it is hard to get a payment method for US residents. I suppose that there is always snail mail?

BetJam......NEVER a worry when it's time to ask for a (lightning fast) payout, customer service is in a league of its own.

only reason I go on line and work so hard at this is the variety and the overlays and getting the best number. with only one book you cant do that and I would not do this each day... Id bet with a local here and there.
