    They have a tendency to cut down anything that looks like a winning account within 100 bets. My latest account is down to $8 limits on major markets. :-)

    Any Order


    SBOBET=No USA
    Pinnacle=No USA
    Betfair=No USA
    Bet365=NO USA
    Sportingbet AU= NO USA
    Bookmaker=USA ALLOWED
    5 Dimes= USA ALLOWED
    a good list of good international-facing books...two glaring ommissions: Matchbook (brilliant prices--by FAR the lowest commissions of all the exchanges)/no bet-size limitations...but only basic "bread and butter" bets) and NordicBet (very similar to SBOBET)
    ___________

    Good books need good cashiers (ie. good convenient two-way transaction methods=an e-wallet, the gold-standard being Moneybookers/Skrill)...

    the only US-friendly books that make an effort to be e-wallet-compatible and thus make themselves viable for non-US'ers as well are 5dimes (a sharp book)...and sports interaction (a very square one...crappy odds in general...but a few brilliant "sore thumb" lines everyday make it a "must have")

    Bookmaker and Heritage would be good international books if they just sorted themselves out as far as two-way traffic with Moneybookers...

    ___________

    For US'ers...best u can do IMO is a combo of 5dimes (sharp, for 95% of your plays)/sia(square, the odd "sore thumb" dog-value play)...bookmaker and heritage could give some useful outs occasionally...

    Why does a man that resides in the united states care to rate a book that does not except bets from the united states?

    ...i also like betfair...but not for sports-wagering...it's their "zero-edge" table games which make it a "must have"

    Remove Bet365, fast limits, 188Bet is a much better book, many times you can beat pinnacle's odds there (asian handicaps).

    List not about limits

    Never looked at Nordic Bet

    Greek not a too 7 book anymore

    Bet365 the biggest book in world now... Standard for everything

    Can make a small case for matchbook but volume hurts them and software C+ not up to euro software standards

    If you arb of course Bet365 will limit you. Being with them since more than a year and a half, never been limited, despite betting heavy on LIVE.
    I play horses too (already kicked off VCBet and heavy limited from SJ for this reason).
    I had very good runs in the past but they never use any restriction on me.
    (And of course no, I'm not down on my overall balance with them).

    Volume is fine, what hurts them (maybe i don't know) is that too many people are either not aware how much better they are than let's say 3.65 for standard bets, or too stupid to realize how much they get milked at the shit books.

    Thanks JJ. Hardly an expert in this area. Would have thought Pinnacle would be somewhere in there. That's why I asked, thanks.

    Pinny is so underrated for "biggest" book, everyone would love to have an account there...right?
    So why should it be any different for the rest of the world, what they lack in $10 bettors they surely make up with all the action that other books or whoever really lay off there.
    Are you seriously telling me 3.65 has more volume?

    spoke to 5D's last night via live chat. They said u can request payout between 9am-1pm every Monday only WUnion and fees taken care of. If this is true sounds like a nice little perk

    I have always heard BM is the top book but took a look at their fees the other day ...I think it was $65 min for standard check (prob like min amount too) that's not cool.

    In the past I have used Bovada(formerly Bodog) and cashed out 4 times I think. They would FedX check to my door in no time. Thinking about opeing small account there. Never had any problems there

    Pinnacle pretty big but not a giant like the books I mentioned

    Bet365 spends A Ton in advertising probably more than pinnacle volume
