Best sportsbook and payout options

Hoping some of the vets can help out a newbie.

I'm perusing a few sportsbook options, looking for the safest and most reliable.  5bets seems to be the highest rated.  What books would you peeps recommend?

Second, what is the safest, quickest, and most inexpensive method to receive payouts?  Will a US bank accept checks from a sportsbook? 

Thanks for your help.

:)

Where are you located?

You will hear a lot of 5 Dimes (although people say customer service sucks), Heritage, Gtbets, and Bet Islands. 

I have Gtbets and Heritage personally Gtbets has been the best for me as far as customer service and quick payouts.

I'm sure you will hear various opinions.  Good luck

I'm in the Socal area.

Let me add some more detail.

I'm going to be a low stakes bettor at first, probably withdrawing less than $500 at a time.

It seems like I'll have to pay some kind of fee to get my winnings.  If this is true, what site is the most reliable and offers the fastest, safest, and most inexpensive way to get my winnings?

Thanks in advance for your help.

I'll PM u if interested can get you a nice big initial deposit match bonus for football season over at Gt if interested. 

Like I said the common ones you will here around here are the 5dimes, gtbets, Heritage, bet islands etc. 

good luck with your choice!

I think I'm going to go with Bovada.  The 4.9% deposit fee was a surprise, but from what I'm hearing here, the process of getting a check for your winnings has been sped up a lot, so that's cool.

I do have one question:  They seemed to recommend depositing the check via an ATM.  I've always been leary of doing that because it's taken forever for checks I've deposited that way to post.  So I usually cash the check and if I'm going to bank any of it, I'll deposit the cash.

Been playing 1Vice lately, seem really good. 150% bonus on almost every deposit.

Cash the check at the ATM! Bovada is now an A book you couldn't have made a better choice! Just don't play poker here! Bol man!

Why cash the checks at an atm?

That's what I want to know.  I don't see any advantage to depositing any check at an ATM.
