Which Sportsbook Does Most Business??

**bigboydan** · 01-08-06, 05:47 AM

as far as sportsbooks go, i'm thinking 5dimes has to be right up there at the top as well.

I heard in the mohawk territory in Canada, Sportsinteraction and related companies did 60 million, I am not sure if it is Canadian or US dollars.

I think you should edit the question.

Do you mean by volume or ticket count?

**imgv94** · 01-08-06, 07:43 PM

volume, handle

AK · 01-08-06, 07:56 PM

Total tickets would be sports interaction.
Volume I'm guessing BetonSports

**SBR_John** · 01-08-06, 08:49 PM

I'd put my money on:
Sportsbook.com
Pinnacle
BetOnSports

I am not saying Sportsinteraction is doing the most money.

I just heard thats how much they made.

I am sure a sportsbook like Bodog and Pinnacle do lots of business amd more than Sportsinteraction.

BetonSports could be another one, they advertise like crazy, they sent me free $10.00 magazines trying to seduce me, always get something thing from them, even if they are semi-scammers. They do what is called a pump and dump scam, hype everything like crazy and win your heart and when you win they dump everything and you get nothing. Am I correct on this? I never hear anything good on them. I also could be wrong.

I agree with John's three...

**imgv94** · 01-09-06, 12:22 AM

bodog took 6bil in bets in 2005. you think sportsinteraction was even
close to that??

I wonder how popular pinnacle is. cause they are the best by far to me..

**SBR_John** · 01-09-06, 12:39 AM

imgv,
I'm meeting with Calvin soon(BoDog CEO) so I if I was smart I would be quiet. But since I'm not I'll just say I'm always skeptical of the numbers we hear out of their camp. And this did not just start but goes back years. They are big but if I had to bet my life I would bet their handle(sports) is closer to $3 billion which is still a monster number. I would guess Pinnacle is about $5 billion. Not a chance in a zillion that Bodog does more handle than Pinny.

**imgv94** · 01-09-06, 12:43 AM

really?? interesting?? tell bodog to post better lines and bring back
bonus to 20% or at least 15% 10% is still good but 15%-20% is better..

Pinnacle towers over bodog to me!!

John, what do you estimate sportsbook.com numbers at?

Maybe in their own building they're near the top in dollar volume.

Worldwide, I'd be VERY surprised if they crack the Top 25.

**SBR_John** · 01-09-06, 01:37 PM

5 Dimes and Hollywood are not giant shops but they are big. You could not compare them to the majors in terms of volume.

Illusion I would guess sportsbook.com pumps out somewhere in the 6's in sports handle. Maybe $6.2 billion-ish.

AK · 01-09-06, 02:01 PM

Hollywood also owns Doyles Room

**SBR_John** · 01-09-06, 05:50 PM

AK thats not really true. There is a shareholder situation between them perhaps but they do not own them. In any case, Hollwood is good sie but not a major unless you are talking net worth...then they are way up there.
