    I wanted to ask all of you U.S online gamblers which book is your favorite and would suggest to me as my last stop for wagering. I have only used two books to date, 1st) Sportsbook.com- but read to many bad things about them so I switched to 2nd) Bodog.eu- never had problem with payout, but I hate their NFL betting lines!!!  So I am asking for all of your expertise on this, and hopefully I can find my last destination for gaming! P.S. I pray that NBA isn't cancelled completely, because that is my true money maker right there....wow did I kill it last season with taking dogs in the reg. season- BOL to all!!!

    They changed to bookmaker.eu

    and yes, they're probably the best place to play for Americans
    5dimes is doing okay too, but seem to have a few more issues with their processors

    Few reasons why I will not play at betonline.com........1) Hate their layout, very ugly indeed. 2) They started sending me e-mails out of nowhere........since sportsbook.ag sells your info to 3rd parties. 3) I never trust books that have outrageous bonuses that none of their competitors will touch with a 10 ft. pole. 4) Have read some bad stories about them

    It depends what you are looking for. Right now though, in my mind, its really a two horse race between 5dimes and bookmaker. None of the other books serving US customers can come close to those two for my money.

    5dimes, NOT Bookmaker, is the best bet. Bookmaker already had their main domain names (bookmaker.com, 2betdsi.com) seized. The other shoe could always drop. Based on that reason combined with 5dimes superior options (Wrestlemania Kapono?) makes them a slightly better option. 

    Can't lose either way, but 5dimes is the clear winner.

    So let me ask you a question then Johnny Cash, what superior options are we talking about here??? How big do you play on that site & have you ever had a problem with payouts?? A couple of examples why they are better would be nice.....TY

    Can't lose either way, but 5dimes is the clear winner.

    So let me ask you a question then Johnny Cash, what superior options are we talking about here??? How big do you play on that site & have you ever had a problem with payouts?? A couple of examples why they are better would be nice.....TY

    Not necessarily superior options, but more of them. If exotic wagers/props are your thing, they offer more of those than any book in existence. You typically get the best odds on futures, and they are by far the best book for combat sports like boxing and MMA.up  They also offer reduced juice or up to 15% cash back twice a year. 

    You can bet many exotic wagers, like the hot dog eating contest or Wrestlemania. Me and Kaponofor3 cashed some very large tickets on these events. I cashed out for 3k and 2k in subsequent weeks in April, both checks arrived within 5 business days and cleared immediately. 

    Bookmaker is great, but I don't carry as much of a balance as I did since the main domain name seizure. Probably nothing to worry about, but a red flag nonetheless.

    Yes sir, indeed. I won a few grand because of it. If I told you I would take wagers on the weather tomorrow, would you bet it?

    im looking for a new book now too.. as my local has not been cutting it lately.. so it appears the consensus is bookmaker or 5dimes.. I mainly just a football better. Which do you guys recommend as the top choice? Or are they really both the same as far as being the best online books out there?

     You must either work for bookmaker or you are one fortunate player of theirs. Cause I have been with bookmaker forever. I always have gotten paid, but fast and easy has rarely been part of the equation. Maybe 500-1000 payouts via western union they may be fast.  I have done book to book transefers and they are very fast at that. I still use them and just started with 5 dimes. BOL.

    It just suck that every time I read a thread about any of these off-shore books.....someone is getting screwed or waiting forever to get there money back. Maybe I should just save my cash and go to Vegas where it's all good. Or just wait for college b-ball and maybe shortened NBA season.....and stick with the book who has never did me wrong.

    If you asked this question even a year ago than Bookmaker would be right up there.  But they've declined dramatically over the last year.  They've already changed their domain and just to unstable right now.  Not to mention their CS has gone into the tank IMO and their website seems to go down with more and more frequently.  Also if you like to bet MLB they have 20 cent lines.  

    Their are only 2 books you need to consider right now.  5Dimes or BetIslands.  Both offer reduced juice.  Both are rock solid. If you want same day payouts and to feel like you're "part of the family" and not "just a number" than go with BetIslands.  If you want great betting options on everything from NFL Football to Little League to Japanese soccer than go with 5Dimes.  I've always gotten next day payouts w/o a problem.  And their soccer, tennis, UFC lines are far better than ANYONE out there.
