What's the best in terms of lines, parlays, prop betting, and free withdrawls?
Besides 5dimes. Having trouble with my account there.

bookmaker for openers, 5dimes is best on props especially since you can parlay all of them. if your situated in europe paddy has props for all undercards very often, but they do restrict you once you win. bodog sometimes have good odds for dogs. there are some you should stay away from, betus in my opinion sucks.

Its way worth it to keep trying at 5dimes. Make more money.

Pretty much what BJ said.
If you are located in the US nothing really compares to 5dimes. There is nothing even close. They are better for everything and have the best lines.
Bookmaker has all the openers and they release the most props. They are probably your best choice if you don't want to use 5dimes. Only thing is you have to pay for withdrawals.
Bodog has free withdrawals. They have quite a few props and you can parlay. You don't get all the openers though and sometimes have to wait for lines to come out for a long time compared to other books.
It's a lot harder if you live in the US. I think you should try your best to go with 5dimes, but if you can't try either Bodog or Bookmaker.

I'm in So-cal as well, and I recently got a 5 dimes account. Like you, I make most my plays through a small bookie site (coast2coastsports.com) that is 'members only' and I got hooked up with an account my knowing one of the guys who works for them. I pay out and pay in through my friend, so its nice. PLus they have high limits on str8 plays, so I can put a G-1500 on a str8 whenever.
HOWEVER, they have no parlay options nor do they have prop bets.
So I wanted to take a stab at making parlays and props (which haven't worked out so far haha, last weekend was horrible with my parlays), and I openeed up a 5 dimes account.
I'm very happy with 5 dimes. What are you having trouble with?
I deposit via WESTUNION ( edit: did sbr just try to blur out westttterrrn unionnnn lol?) no problem, only done it twice (wired $ to the phillipines), but the transactions went through. I haven't cashed out yet, but my friend has and he does it through WESTUNION as well and everytthing was legit.
I love their prop options and the parlays are fun to risk some money on, customer service is solid too.
I still use coast2coast for my large str8 bets (that's how I make my money in this game, I consolidate all my play money for that show to just one or two large bets via a str8 money line play).
Anyways, sorry for the extra info. I'd try to stick with 5 dimes as the other dude said. Being from socal I'd be surprised if you have real trouble with them, as I have had nothing but a good experience and so have my friends.

I wanna use a CC to deposit money, but the card isn't under my name (although the surname is the same) and they don't allow that. Card name and account holder name have to be the same. I made my 5dimes account a long time ago, otherwise I just would have made the account under the name on the card.
My book is the same, I have an account and pay out through a friend. They don't offer parlays or prop bets, either.

You're not interested in doing a cash money wire transfer? Its really easy, you can do it at most mail box places and its legit through 5 dimes. Just bring the cash in, send it over to the person 5dimes tells you to, and call them back with the transfer confirmation # and the money shows up in your online account!

Could only afford to use the cc right now, low on cash this week, not even betting except for UFC and a couple football games

If you can find a Visaa gift card that allows international transactions those generally work with the processor at 5dimes. I had issues with my CC and thats how I deposited.

Not to derail the thread, but what would be the best UFC betting site for a Canadian? I'm already on sportsinteraction, but I'd like to open a second account, suggestions?

I would think one of the exchanges would be your best spots if you're betting straight. I don't know what's going on with them since matchbook left the us market though.
