Kinda new here, best site to use?

[Kritz23]

Hey all, I kinda been scoping these forums out for awhile, just looking for some advice.

I'm in the U.S where from what I've read the laws regarding gambling are ambiguous at best so opening accounts at some websites seems kinda sketchy. What I'm looking for is a place where I can deposit money, preferably by my credit card, and a place where I can cash out once a month for little to no cost and be sure to get my money with no problems at the bank. So far the only site I signed up for was Bodog which works kinda good for me because I have cashed out and gotten my money rather easily from them. The thing I don't like is Bodog's lines come up kinda late and I do work a legitimate job so I'm not always at my computer like an hour or 2 before the lines go up.

I'm also wondering if any of these sites let you buy points?

Anyone have any helpful ideas on what safe site I should use?

Also, are there any other good betting message boards? I kinda found one on covers.com yesterday.

First off, Welcome to the SBR forum sir

I can recommend plenty of excellent books to you, however with the deposit method your requesting. It does scratch a big number of them.

You might want to checkout Bookmaker, because the last thing I did read (roughly 3-4 weeks ago) most credit card transaction could be processed if you call. Now they do have a loyalty program that should allow you the free withdraw your wanting per month, and they are one of the first books out there that post their lines early.

Wow. Quick forum. Haha. Nice.

Not many sites take credit cards? Isn't that one of the fastest ways to put funds in the account without going through the hassle of sending/waiting for mail or talking to someone on the phone?

From what I've checked really quickly, bookmaker looks like my choice. 30 days for a check in the mail seems like a long time, but oh well nothing can be perfect. Has anyone had any problems processing and or receiving their checks?

Thanks in advance.

You get the withdrawal without using points for it, Dan.

I'm saying 5D because you can do an e-check ( small). Much better book overall than Bookmaker with the reduced juice.

I've used that option recently with 5D, no problems other than relatively low limit. 5D is a good out but definitely isn't the best overall book you can play at. Keep a balance at a few reputable shops and don't worry too much about payouts, A books will pay.

Ok kinda odd thing happened today. I've deposited a few times at Bodog via credit card and had no problems. The most recent deposit being in early January.

I tried opening another account at betjamaica and bookmaker. I have accounts there, but just having trouble depositing money via credit card. I faxed my info to betjamaica and tried depositing over the phone but the woman said my card got declined and she said my bank doesn't allow gaming purchases. So I head over to bookmaker.com and while attempting to deposit online a screen popped up that said my transaction failed. My credit limit with this card is $5,000 and I pay the card off every month and I know for a fact that $5,000 isn't on the card so I assume that the woman for betjamaica is right. Now my question:

The woman from betjamaica said to do an e-check. Suppose I do that and I want to cash out later in the month for a check in the mail and I want to put that check in my personal banking account. Am I going to have any trouble depositing the money on the check into my bank account?

i think you have to wait 14 days if you do a echeck with betjm to do a withdrawal.

Just suck it up and send W/U or preferably moneygram(everybody has a walmart). Way easier when doing payouts and such. If you must go CC I know that intertops takes them from most CC companies, they are the only book that takes mine. But I like matchbook, you can transfer to WSEX in minutes. Then you have two A books.

Heritage... I get my payouts the same day sometimes within a couple hours. Never any hassles and great perks and very nice generous cash gifts if you are loyal to them. I wouldn't play anywhere else personally.

You have to call bookmaker and they would process it for you.

I used Betonline for -105 Juice also 10% cash bonus
I also use Matchbook for less Vig.
I used Legendsport for 30% cash bonus if you deposit mon-wed ( The fastest cashout I cashout 1 last week and it took less than a week free i cashout a month)
I used bookmaker for they 20% freeplay but they charge me $60 on my last withdraw which is suck.
I also Use the greek for cash bonus and sharp line.

The best thing you should do is go after all the 20% cash bonus site bonus whore also help you to build your BR.
Why have to make deposit through cc?
You can do Moneygram Charge $9.99 per 1k and site will give you back the fee. also ** site will pay all the fee.
*** Remember when you make deposit through cc. Withdraw will be pain in the ass. Site you ask you to see ID proof of cc ultility bill and ect.

Just my 2 cent.
