anyone use canbet? any opinions

I've used them the last 2 MLB seasons. I'll say this, for baseball if you have Pinnacle and Mansion, you will rarely find the best line at Canbet. Of all the books I use, I've gotten the least action in at Canbet. Other than that, I like them. No hassles. Fast payouts. Decent limits, although you never know what the limit is until you try to make the bet and, at least for MLB, it varies A LOT.

Another strange thing about Canbet, although they are generally on an early-breaking dime-line for MLB sides, sometimes they will hang a 15 cent or even 20 cent line on a game that would normally be 10 cent. It's usually (maybe always) a game that is seeing a lot of action and a lot of line moves. I'd say they are fairly risk-averse.

Spot on Mr X. EXTREMELY risk averse. The owner is very well known for it. But I suppose that's not always a bad thing.

I used it by two years: not any problem. You deposit and instantaneous withdrawals. Very valid for tennis and soccer.

chano · 09-03-06, 12:33 PM

used them for some soccer and things were pretty smooth, no problems at all with them.

good feedback...

jjgold · 09-05-06, 11:31 AM

I think it is the sharpest and clearest looking line screens

They ID you.

I asked if I could delete something from my passport copy and they told me no. They said the Northern Territories Police Fraud Department advised them this to prevent fraud. What a load of bollocks. As if a police fraud department would be recommending people send perfect copies of enough ID to open up accounts.

Thats a flat out lie. Im sure I have still got the email if theres any doubt as to this.

Also said that the licencing authority doesnt allow them to return ID. Even when youve closed your account (which I did immediately after clearing out their bonus).

Their lines are rubbish for football anyway.

So, if you want poor lines with arrogant staff and to put your ID out for anyone to use ... this is your book.

I like them, but not a main out.

Good experience with them. Like to keep things spread out, so an Ozzie book is right up my alley. 107 Juice for NFL and NBA doesn't hurt either. Great menu that always shows the options for parlays, rr's, and teasers. Very helpful folks if you have a problem. Not a whole lot of action here for me, but definitely an A book.
