    How is BetOnline these days?
    Never played here. Looking at sending them a sizeable deposit.

    Any feedback on this book?

    BetOnline (SBR rated A-) currently have no complaints levied against them and no processing issues to speak of at this time, which is a positive these days. The limits are $2,000 (Sides & Totals) which isn't bad at all really, however they will collar you if you start to hammer them at a pretty good clip (recreational book needless to say).

    Their are a couple of things I don't like is that they charge roughly $50 for fedex checks and they don't do book-to-book transfers. They don't accept Moneybookers at all and the only way you can deposit in Neteller is if you give them all your info, including pin number, which I don't recommend doing.

    Of course you do get the two signup options (big bonus or low vig) and they only accept U.S. funds these days.


    Here are just a few of the things that they do offer.

    Overnight Lines: Yes
    Reverse Run Lines: No
    5-inning lines: Yes (ML & Totals)
    Reduced Juice Totals: No
    Grand Salami Totals: Yes
    Team Totals: No

    Here are their money line breakdowns:

    .10 up to -189
    .15 up to -199
    .20 up to -209
    .30 up to 224

      They have nice bonuses, low juice and 7 to 1 parlays. Paid me promptly when requested check. They have high withdrawal fees but are offset by the nice bonus they offer.

          This place is good because you can use a CC even if your CC doesnt allow "gaming transactions"

            Although, I wouldnt play here.

            The software SUCKS, the account balance doesnt update automatically, they cannot even block the casino for you...

            Although they do grade wagers very fast.

              I like them overall especially for the low vig option. I've never taken a withdrawal there yet though. Not paying true odds on moneyline dog parlays is a big negative for me also.

                -110 vs. -105 is not basically the same thing.

                  first of all BET JM and BOL are the same if you bet on baseball(both nickel juice) otherwise the low vig option at BOL is better for straight bets. props are lower juiced at BET JM

                  second of all the software at BOL has gotten a lot better

                  I use both books often and I'd take BET JM over BOL cause of the track record with BET JM. Of course it would depend on the action you are looking for.

                  I feel funds are safe with both, I never had a payout issue with either.

                  Payouts are free with BET JM (1 per month)and $50 with BOL.

                    BetJam does offer -105 football lines from 6pm Eastern to Midnight Eastern every Friday.

                        I play there for the rduced juice and overall its solid. High fedex check fee, the non refreshing account balance, and lack of tennis parlays make it a drawback, but i love seein the -105 by the spreads

                          Ok, I think I will be checking these guys out. The 45% FP is attractive.
