you can't go wrong with any of those in my opinion!

I love Pinnacle. Selling Points is wonderful..

I think Bet Jamaica is cool if you like overnight lines.

Betcris is good on ML's..

Oh dame, I just figure out that betjm and the greek won't accept player under 21, where most of the other site accept players over 18. Can somebody confirm this?

bigboydan · 02-04-06, 03:25 AM

i will confirm that for you. it states "all account holders must be 21 years of age"

pinnacle's the best of those four...

I like Pinny and Oly, for a small player I also like canbet, matchbook and betgameday.

BuddyBear · 02-04-06, 11:27 AM

Pinnacle is the best of the four...but I highly recommend Betjm...i think it will meet yoru demands easy...they have great customer service, it's good for all size bettors especially recreational bettors...you can make a bet as low $2 on there and they offer one free NeTeller withdrawal a month but if you use their e-check payment method, withdrawals are always free regardless of how many you make. It's a really good book IMO.

well you kinda mentioned the 3 top books lol - Jamaica is Olympic family and geared towards smaller players, while Oly is 1 of the top books for Pros.
Pinny, Oly and Jamaica pay within minutes (Neteller), at CRIS you usually have to wait several hours

bigboydan · 02-04-06, 12:11 PM

all the books you mentioned are very good books but, the question is. what type of player are you big or small type bettor? after we establish that, we can direct you accordingly in regards to lines,payouts,service,ect.

Illusion · 02-04-06, 12:57 PM

You will never sweat a payout with any of those books. All of them are as solid as they come.

I like Pinny...not many offices offer for example ML at the HT of an NBA game just as they do.....they offer the best oddses, large variety of bet types even for european sports, good CS....

Olympic offers the best player specials for US sports IMHO, and the largest variety of bet types, and their 11% reload bonus for every deposit (if you didn't make a withdrawal in the last 30 days) is a good one...good CS, sometimes they offer not enough bet types for european sport events for me.

Betcris: I had a few negative events with them and their CS, + their casino is a very strange one (many says it's a rigged one).....I personally don't like them, although Betcris is many other bettor's favourite office...

Before recommending an office, it's important to know what are you looking for? A bookie where you can bet on european sport events? Then try Pinny, Bet365, Betandwin.....US sports? Pinny, Olympic, Bodog....Live betting? Betfair, Betandwin. Good bonuses? Bet365, VIP Sports....Best oddses? Pinny, Betfair...

707782 · 02-05-06, 05:22 AM

Ok, for now, I think I'm a small player, but things will change in the future.

I really like what the greek and betjm has offer, and their service, however, I'm not over 21 years old now, so 2 out of the best 4 or 5 is already not a choice anymore for me, so that sucks.

and I also have bad experieced with betcris's CS.

Any other that you would recommend?

imgv94 · 02-05-06, 05:49 AM

I recommend Carib if your a small player. $2 min bets.

fixxer · 02-05-06, 06:02 AM

Gamebookers is a good bookie for small players, who like to bet on european sports....

Min. bet is 0.1 EUR, min. deposit is 2 EUR

Bet365 are thieves not bookmakers. If you want to consistently take the worst of it and hand them your money, sign up. If you want half a chance to actually win some money without getting tossed, look elsewhere.

Betfair doesn't accept US accounts, which I'm pretty positive he is.

fixxer · 02-05-06, 08:04 AM

I am betting with them for 4 years without any problems.....IMHO Bet365 is a great bookie.

fixxer · 02-05-06, 08:07 AM

Why are they a bad bookie? Did they cheat u?

RickySteve · 02-05-06, 08:18 AM

They're a great bookie, if you lose. If you take advantage of their creampuff lines and actually have the audacity to win, they'll show you the door. Don't give these cowardly hacks the privilege of taking your action.

Catsfan · 02-05-06, 09:56 AM

I would recommend any of the first 3 you listed. All of them are excellent. I would tell you NOT to play at CRIS. Their customer service is terrible. They also refused to pay me $939 that I won at RichCoast. They bought RichCoast but refused to pay me those winnings. For this reason I will never recommend this shop to anyone until they do the right thing and pay me my money. STAY AWAY FROM CRIS!!
