i would agree on heritage, but i still don't understand what betjamaica offers that make it an elite book. 

strongly disagree on grouping justbet and you wager.  Only thing they have in common is fast payouts.  You wager has a much higher tolerance for winners and much higher limits.  You wager is an excellent baseball book and has the fastest payout i have encountered.

i think different books are good for different sports...ie your a chump if you playing bases at the greek and bookmaker, but they are great for football and baskets, and early lines.

overall, i would rate heritage and youwager as my two all around favorites...but different books for different folks, both have treated me very well.

Middle Of The Pack:

-          Bodog:  This company is not just a sportsbook, as there main focus is clearly on poker and other events, so its hard to judge them.  The lines are very average and they are one of the slowest in the industry to post lines.    Good book to bet underdogs…. Besides that,  really no reason to use them for there book.  The poker room on the other hand is very handy, and they have a very nice racebook.  Payout problems are null… not fast but industry standard for checks.  Becky is bangin’… that is all.

 

 

really...they screwed with me for payouts and I fn cut them off...worst lines out and the owner is fn shady...

I am looking for an online book, I live in NY, and t seems betjam would be a safe bet.  I'm looking at the deposit methods and don't see Western Union?  Is a WU deposit called something else or do they not take them?  Thanks for any help!!!

Sportsbetting.com REFUSED to pay me. I will never ever deposit with the sportsbook family of books ever again. Also my withdraw request was only for $350 dollars . I could see them trying to stiff me for like 3k but 350!!!! come on! I had no bonus rollover to  cover. Just flat out wouldnt pay me.

What is the 1st half totals bet limits on CBB at the greek ? Haven't had issues with bookmaker but the 1K limit is getting old especially games where the average is way over or under on my numbers.

Hey Brian I am looking at replacing Sportinteraction or Superbook with Matchbook, 5 Dimes, or BetJam.  I bet small amounts and am an American player.  Mainly bet football and basketball and I don't do parlays or teasers or any of that other stuff.  Mainly bet point spreads, over/unders, and occasionally dabble in halftime lines.  If I am lucky enough to get a payout I don't really care how long it takes as long as I get paid.  Which one would you suggest?  Thanks for your help and love the write up.

A little change in the last couple of months

I would move YouWager up to "Above Average"

And obviously parlaymakers is done so they would be an F....

Agree on bet jamaica, they have me limited to $500/game, and they don't let me bet the game again even if the line has changed, its absurd.
