    I've seen some people ranting/talking about it, how does it work?

    From what I've read it doesn't seem to be like other books.

              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.

You believe in it, you are loyal to it, would defend it, and yet have no proof of it, other than that, at one point or another, you chose to believe in it. Self-hypnosis. What if there were a snapping of fingers that broke the hypnosis?

                  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.
