      ll these places are basically the same except bet365 and betfair

      Bet365 is the leader for live betting with a very easy betting platform but not real good betting limits

      Betfair for exchanges well there is no second place

          Actually the most underrated live betting book for soccer is Canbet

          Also they have -107 on NBA Hoops

                  This is very stupid accusation mostly said by the people who dont have 20 dollars in their pockets.
                  I cant believe that you are talking all the time about bet365 limitation. I want to see proof.
                  How it comes i can bet 3000,4000 at some match and you all are limited?

                              How can you compare Betfair with Bet365? Bet365 will cut you off if your a winner, Betfair doesn't care.

                                What is this supposed to be a measure of?
                                Ladbrokes is bigger (in terms of turnover) than any of the traditional books on that list.

                                  Betfair and bet365 are totally different types of books

                                  No idea what Fishheads numbers mean.

                                    I use Betfair for trading and is very good.
                                    But i use Bet 365 and is also very good.
                                    For me they are the two best sportsbooks

                                      You can't get odds at Euro books like Betfair.

                                        stupid accusation ?
                                        it's more than accusation it is absolute FACT
                                        I don't have an account there any more (would be totally pointless) so I don't know how I can prove what they have done to three separate accounts I have had over time.
                                        $3.65 is actually more than some stakes they restricted me to.
                                        But the best evidence is a thousand or more posts confirming what they do.

                                        What sort of criteria could possibly be used to put them ahead of Betfair?
                                        the mind boggles

                                          If it's just a thousand I'll attest as number 1001. I'd love to keep betting there but was effectively booted out with a severe limit long ago.

                                              bet365 has more options but you'll get limited very quickly when you start winning, you could win 10 million on Betfair and they don't care.

                                                Those bookmaker ratings make me laugh. We call it bet 3.65 for a reason. Try winning more than $200 and you will see you limits going down.

                                                      would it be possible that the ratings are based more on market share rather than how good a site is?

                                                        bet365 might be goiod for someone i ghated it. a very sharp book, quick moves and they will cut your limits if you get a few good bets on them.

                                                            It's good recreational book nothing more nothing less. Similar to bwin but much better.

                                                              how on earth is market share measured then?

                                                              I'd be very surprised if Betfair doesn't have far greater wagering turnover than Bet$3.65

                                                              If these are simply number of hits via Oddschecker they are nothing to do with turnover

                                                              Bigger, smarter punters wouldn't be using Oddschecker to access Betfair whereas I can quite imagine all the small punters clicking feverishly away at the bookies displaying the best odds. A lower percentage of those folk would be exchange savvy.
