    I'm sure this question has been asked 1000 times before, but I'm interested in betting online and would like some input on which is my best option, based on payout time, bonuses, lines, etc. I understand there is plenty on rankings on all sorts of websites, but I'd prefer to hear it from people like ourselves, the actual customers of these websites. Thanks much

    please dont worry about bonuses.  bonuses are worthless if the payout process is slow or nonexistent.  so far, 5 dimes is still paying.

    And, I feel with 5dimes lower juice, that'll add up to more than any bonus over time. There juice is 5%, correct? consistently?

    I was leaning towards bookmaker also, oddsbuster recommends that also, and seems like a reliable source. Thanks for the input...

    Depends on how "big" a player you are...me I'm small $100-$300, so for me, my w/d's are usually between $700-$1200....so Boomaker (this is for me isn't a good option) $65 on a payout of $700 or so...is a big chunk, but if you're a bigger player and talking about looking for $2000-$5000 payouts, then I 'd say BookMaker....

    Bookmaker is the most reliable book out there right now because of how big they are and how much money they have. You can always expect to see your cashout come from bookmaker although the $65 fee can be pretty big. Very worth it having your money safe IMO

    Bookmaker and Heritage are the top of the line,  No worries with payouts and that is the big thing

    There's a new book that's just opened, LowVig.com, with low juice across the board AND daily cash rebates in horses, casino and even poker. We know some of the guys behind it and they're solid--should do well. Way better upper limits than 5dimes, so if you like larger action and lower vig, check out LowVig.com.
