sportsbook.com player needs new book!

You would be ok at any of them. I don't play many parlays with any of them so can't be as much help. Pinnacle often has restriction on parlaying same game sides with totals, so if you do that a lot you might want to choose one of the others.

I've narrowed my selection to Pinnacle, Bodog, and Hollywood. I'm going to be honest and say that Bodog grabbed me with their new design- so I might be a "yuppy" in some people's minds.

I am a parlay player, I don't like to be bothered with phone calls, and I enjoy an easy interface. I just want to know that my money is safe, and sportsbook.com was not giving me that vibe (or that reality)- I would appeciate anybody's suggestions.

Thanks!

Screw design go for the best lines.

Of those I would say Pinny.

I prefer Betjam for some reason. I feel like my money is safer there but I am a nut job so don't listen to me.

I'm honestly leading towards Hollywood, but I think Pinnacle is worth the shot since everybody in the world seems to adore them. Or I could just try both I suppose.

If you play parlays you get -110 at Pinnacle. What do you get at Hollywood?

**wehitandrun** · 10-24-05, 07:40 PM

I just noticed that an 8 teamer at Hollywood pays a terrible 120/1. No thanks, Hollywood.

I would use Pinnacle or Hollywood

I finally researched the odds- and BetCris has the best parlay/teaser odds by MILES. I'll gladly check this sportsbook out.

**wehitandrun** · 10-24-05, 08:17 PM

Sorry to beat a dead horse, especially if nobody cares- but a friend and I have checked out 5Dimes- and their odds are incredible. We are questioning if they will payout with these odds. I love it.

Any unique complaints with 5dimes (besides that August mistake)?

**SBR_John** · 10-24-05, 10:45 PM

5Dimes is a really fun book with good odds and a large selection. But they are strict on bonuses so know that going in. VIP is a good book for parlays.

**Aces** · 10-24-05, 11:36 PM

5Dimes will pay. No worries there at all.

**pags11** · 10-25-05, 02:13 AM

I would recommend bodog or pinnacle...

well, pinny might not be the best option for you then, if you a parly guy. because, they won't let you bet certain types of parlys.

Pinny is a great book but if you play small and take withdrawals of less than $500, there are better choices. Withdrawal fees are the same as paying juice!
