    Looking for an additional book to bet live on NBA

    I figured this would be the best forum to post this in. If it isn't, my apologies.

    I'm currently only at BetOnline (my first ever book btw) and after reading about a bunch of issues I don't feel very safe anymore keeping all my eggs in that basket. Especially since I've won my last 12 bets, most of them live and all on the NBA, and have turned $200 into $6400 in little over a month I'm becoming a bit paranoid about getting my winnings stolen or something if this run continues. Probably silly of me but I can't help it.

    So I've been thinking about going to 5Dimes as well (Pinnacle is not an option because I'm Dutch) since that book seems to be highly regarded but I can't tell from the review here or their own site what their live betting is like. Is it a good book for that or should I look elsewhere?

    5Dimes is the best live book for US sports if you can't have pinnacle

    If you want lots of soccer/rugby/tennis w/e non-us popular sports than places like WilliamHill, Bet365 are good

    Thanks Sunde I'll probably go with 5dimes then.

    Vinnie Paz, I'm seeing Netherlands listed under Country Restrictions at Bet365 so that's a nono.

    Bwin is my fav, they have live games. Not saying it's the best, but in my country it's number 1! Plus they have plenty of bets, like 888sports (my 2nd one) doesn't offer more than 10 bets per NBA game, compared to 25+ for Bwin.

    Heritage is great for post-season Live bets if you can get in with them.

    Damn I am so getting a bunch of money out of BetOnline. Philly/Boston live bets lose and were graded after about 5 seconds. I make it back live on the Thunder and go up 1k for the day and it's still pending. I hope they're not trying to pull some shit here.
