    Why is Bookmaker in the top 5 Books??
    They don't offer me anything above and beyond other books. No same day payouts on MoneyGram or WesternUnion. Matter of fact they sometimes can't even pay person to person within 72 hours.

    THE MOST OVERRATED SHOP ON THE LIST!!

      SBR looks the other way because they pay a few bills?? That is what I thought.

          You guys are being moronic. Bookmaker actually takes sharp action.

                They take your money, let you bet, and then they pay you if you win.

                Next question?

                    Cube you don't get the point. All books do that. They are so vanilla and don't even pay fast. Anyone that plays there and nowhere else is painting themselves into a corner. Way better options out there. Not even a op 20 book to me.

                      The early lines alone make them top 5. Some other perks help make up for the full vig also.

                            There isnt a top 10 sportsbook basically theres a top 2 sportsbook 5 dimes and bet phoenix they are the only trustworthy sportsbooks that offer reduced juice and one free payout fed ex per month.

                            Anybody who is getting gouged on juice playing at bet jamaica and bookmaker thats your choice but i will only play at reduced shops that offer a free payout

                              Those are two other solid choices, Beantown Jim. They are both among my top outs right now for sure. Bookmaker to bet early, 5Dimes and BetPhoenix to bet late.

                                They originate the lines you bet at other books.

                                When they weren't posting NCAAB totals a few weeks ago, no book had them.

                                    escarbajo negro.

                                    Burt, not saying I only play with them. Just, they seem pretty solid. I like boring. Plus, you get one free western union per month. So, I think they are with one of the original companies, Betcris, but with a different name. I don't know. They take money, they pay, have a nice day.

                                      They are one of the very few REAL sportsbooks left. Next question, square.

                                          Real sportsbook? Are you kidding. It is an online sportsbook what is the difference? It is not a brick and mortar place what makes it one of the last real sportsbooks left?
                                          Safety is not an issue at the books I play at. I can name 10 books just as safe that have better options.
                                          One free western Union is great but if it takes 3-4 days to get it what is the point? I can get westernunion and moneygram payouts within 8 hours everywhere I play. I can get a check at most books before you can get a westernunion there.

                                          There is no debate here. People play at Bookmaker because of the name hands down. IT IS NOT A MUST HAVE BOOK

                                                    I thought Bookmaker was an alright book? They seem to have their lines favorable. To me bodog is a bad primary book, but they are good as secondary books with less than 10% of your bankroll their. They have favoarable dog lines and thats about it. Everything else about bodog stinks and this is coming from a person when I was there when the hype of them was good. But you will get no where with this question as some prefer what others dislike.

                                                      Bodog has a separate book for euros.

                                                      No teasers and no free points on dogs.

                                                      Discrimination I say give me those free points

                                                        Bookmaker has -120 soccer lines. Why play there when I can get -105 at BetPhoenix? If they ever get reasonable soccer lines I might play there. SBR should stop using their lines in their sportsbook also. Its highway robbery.

                                                            for a -110 book I want to be practically blown to play there. I want to call at 11 AM and get a moneygram or westernUnion control number at 5PM. I want a fed ex check within 3 days. I want great customerservice. I want to be a person not an account number. Why would I or should i wait 3-4 days for a person to person payout it is unacceptable.
                                                            I play at Heritage first. BetJamaica - Phoenix - and then like 4-5 outs that I line shop.

                                                              I really don t know what the issue is. Betcris is great for me and allows me to make large wagers safely. Neteller is pretty fast with Betcris as well. I don t know, but i have only have good experiences with them.
