As you may have noticed, the forum was offline for a period. We identified a security incident to Sportsbook Review Forum and took the site offline as a containment step while we investigated.
We wanted to make sure the system and site were restored and secured before bringing things back online and you will see that we are requiring all forum users to reset their password as a precautionary step.
If you have any questions, our moderators are around and happy to help where they can.

It's an exchange. You accept an offer or make an offer. You are not playing against the book.
If you are the person who made the offer that is accepted they pay you about 2/10ths of a percent. If you accept an offer then you pay matchbook about 1%.

I love when someone calls other people "rookies" in one thread and then says he has no idea how Matchbook works.

It's a lot better than a sportsbook. You will save thousands over the course of a year. Whether you win or lose at this, it still nets more money in your pocket.

The short answer is its an exchange. You are gambling against other gamblers, not the book. So you either put up offers (ex. New Orleans -2) and people accept your offer, or you can accept offers that other people put up. Typically the lines will be close to the same as other sportsbooks, you will just pay less juice.
