    Lowvig.ag is -105 betonline. If you aren't going to take a bonus, play there.

    I'm on Betonline.com.. It's a basic book overall but it works... I've never had a problem using them and I've been with them for a few years now..

    IMO if you are a serious pro I would think in USA you have to have a asianconnect account and Fairlay( ZERO Commisons) account to have access to best lines...betonline I like but is more geared towards recreational players i'd say like me...never get a boot from an exchange

    It is a good question - how many books can or would absorb a player that cashes out 100k in a 12 month period?

    Not nearly up in that category at Betonline so I would not know. They seem professional on any of the transactions I have had. Let's ask them - play the role of a big shot - tell them you bet big - could win or lose 100k in a year - do they want your action?

    That kind of money probably belongs in the credit side of the books (new ? as to how many agents can handle those kind of wins) - they certainly do not like moving post up to those sizes.

    Heritage and Bookmaker can tell you in 30 seconds what your lifetime figure is. They are going to squeak with those kind of big payouts. 365 cuts limits. Anything USA facing with post up probably is not going to fly for super big bucks

    Excellent book
    Put in 2k ran to 30k , not a word . Chump change but was more worried about beating every closer .
    Think books look more at beating the shit out of the closer as much as winning . They work hand and hand, if you're betting every closing line , you're going to win long term .
    But BoL is excellent and I dont promote books at all .
    I use BoL, BM and locals since they move lines based on local teams and percentages. Always better NCAAF lines with locals .

    Nobody likes our bandwagon kona. I'm not the type of person that likes to try anything new... but I'm sure glad I gave Fairlay a shot.

    You can cash out $40 or $50k and they won't boot you. (not sure about more than that)

    If they suspect you of abusing bonuses they will cut you off bonuses, and if you are winning a lot on props they may limit you on props.

    I haven't really heard of anyone being booted or limited on games, and they have high limits.

    I know a guy who got the boot. Won a lot horses straight up, no monkey business or fixes or anything. You think they would have just restricted the racing rebate or access to the racebook, but they just showed him the door.

    Rngerz, if you don't mind, how long ago were you limited? I know about 5 years ago that was more likely to happen with them. Their management has been bad then good then bad and now it seems pretty good to me. CS are pretty stupid, and not very helpful though.

    Gongrats by the way, you gotta be real sharp to get limited like that.

    I've used betonline for about a year and the only criticism I have is that their "guaranteed" lifetime reload bonus is kind of a joke. In order to qualify you essentially need to have $0 pending wagers, which means if you play futures you'll never qualify.

    I don't really understand this policy -- since futures bets have some of the highest holds of any type of wager, I don't know why they'd discourage them in this way.

    Otherwise nothing bad to say about betonline at all -- good selection of sports and wager types, fast payouts, fair lines, etc. Probably the best I've used so far.

    My advise is spread smaller bets over a dozen different books so one book doesn't have to fully absorb your winnings.. That's what I do, it keeps your shelf life longer on most books if anything else.. Besides that you get nice bonuses when signing up on new books if your first deposit is large.. It's also more secure when cashing out, you may get cut off on one book but not 12 all at once when you decide to cash out on all at the same time..

    Just something to think about and what works for me... I never try to pound just one book I diversify my bets over 12 books even if the odds differ between each daily... I'm up to a dozen books and have a multiple accounts on a few of them because I got limited...

    When you are on just one book and get cut off it's devastating and demoralizing... Been there done that back in the day and learned my lesson.. I still have books out there that cut me off and own me big money today.. I let it go.
