    I'm tired of the US not having a decent exchange
    Why isn't someone stepping up and giving us an exchange?

    The best odds ever were at matchbook. I am just surprised nobody is doing anything about it given how big the US market is.

    Pretty weird. So many exchanges suffer liquidity issues though. Betdaq has ladbrokes behind them and they are terrible. Even a shop that just dealt a slightly juiced mb line would work acting as a broker.

        Americans either dont like or dont understand a betting Ex

        No volume - Matchy was mostly seeded by just a handful of guys

                    exchange doesnt work in the us because of liquidity


                    its hard for people to play online so most books have a limited amount of players and limited amount of funds being bet

                    to make a successful exchange you need millions of players with millions of cash being matched every hour, that will never happen in the US until gambling becomes legal in the land of the free
