They are trustworthy.

Bookmaker is top notch, though the odds aren't quite as good as some others.

I can't fault you for making such a fine selection deciding on playing at Bookmaker, although I feel DSI would be the the best choice if you planing on wagering baseball.

DSI is a sister book of Bookmaker, so the security of funds issues falls under one. The reason I say suggest playing at DSI over Bookmaker is because they offer a dimeline, while Bookmaker .20 cent lines. Other than that they are virtually the same in regards to payouts, loyalty program, ect,ect. The only real big difference between them would be that DSI has a little bit lower limits and the lines are slightly different.

If you get money in by tommorow they've got a big Ncaa promotion going...I had to put in 2 dimes to get a full 35% though....We'll see...I dont know what the rollover was I was ready to make a deposit and they just happened to call me so I went in...Sure it will be worth something

What did they give you 35% bonus for? I have to make a max deposit tomorrow with them and would like to ask for this one if it's something particular.

I talked to Peter if you need an extension # I can send it to you (I dont know if its kosher to give it on a post...I dont know all the silent rules about this sort of thing)...Some kind of promotional deal for tourney...I needed to deposit somewhere and they called me out of the blue with this offer (hadnt dealt with them in long time) so I made the easy decision....

moses millsap · 03-16-08, 11:35 PM

700 freeplay on that deposit sounds solid. I'll see what I can manage tomorrow via their lovely live chat. LOL.

I play at bookmaker now and like it, early lines, lots of betting options and safe.

mademan76 · 03-25-08, 09:15 PM

I doubt anything will change by Friday sir, because BookMaker is as solid as they come.

True, bookmaker is an absolutely class act, betpoints will add up fast if you are an action junkie like most of us degenerates which results in free plays. The only possible problem with them is expensive fast payout options, but as long as you don't mind waiting 2-3 weeks for a reg. mail check which is free then they are as solid as they come. They apparently have an ACH bank transfer option they offer for free which is supposed to take 3 days to send to your bank account. Anyone out there use the ACH payout option with bookmaker that could give us some insight into it?

rm18 · 03-25-08, 11:17 PM

i requested the ACH last night for the first time

rm18 · 03-25-08, 11:18 PM

they seem to be giving out double bet points now, so this is really a -106 book right now

daggerkobe · 03-25-08, 11:31 PM

Bookmaker = BetCris.... so yeah they're solid.

But they do get annoying with sales calls so give em a fake number or something.

Keep us updated please, as this sounds like a great option.

rm18 · 03-25-08, 11:50 PM

though only 1k max and 1 per week for ACH

bettilimbroke999 · 03-26-08, 01:07 AM

Granted that sorta sucks, but better than nothing. Anyone know of a timeframe for bookmaker checks as I'm thinking of cashing some of mine out, for some reason I always win at books that I am new too and unfamiliar with their payout procedures.

pimike · 03-26-08, 01:11 AM

They make you wait 7 days plus to get paid.

Fast payouts are youwager.com

jjgold · 03-26-08, 06:06 AM

Bookmaker is solid
Jamaica is solid

Are they safe = Yes

Are they OK = eh

I would not recommend them for baseball because of 20-cent lines. If you feel you must play with a CRIS family book, go with DSI.

Or, since you say you are a recreational bettor, I don't think you could do better than 5 Dimes. I would also recommend Matchbook, but I am not sure if you are comfortable with exchanges.

Thanks for the advice Lt Profits....I will defiantly look into 5 Dimes they look like they might have better lines..Maybe ill have an account on both
