This is a book I have used on and off for about 3 years. I consider them a secret weapon. I mean, they're not like a secret stash of nukes, but they have some nice little explosives available.
What I like is the soft lines which I find on any number of things. They have a horrible layout (I don't think that is unfair to say) so it takes work to find the soft lines, but they are there.
Limits are medium-ish. This could be a contentious point because quite a few people have reported getting limits cut down to pointless levels. I never have. I don't know why.
Payouts are not swift but they do what they say. For Neteller they take a full 48 hours. It's a financially stable book.
They have 10% cash reload bonuses on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Check the website for full terms and conditions.

Thats a nice write-up Mudcat. I'm a closet Intertops fan. Their software is what the software looked like in the early days of the industry... its throw-back software if you will. Once you are familiar with it, its really pretty good.
This book has a huge following. They were about the first real sportsbook to go online and have been in the SBR top 6 up to 3 or 4 years ago. They were passed by by the new books like Pinnacle, WWTS and VIP and basically did not keep up with an improving industry.

Sometimes I'm not sure I'm talking about the same thing as everyone else when we evaluate software.
I think Intertops software is great. I can log into Intertops, walk away from my computer for 2 days and when I return I will still be logged in.
As a guy who hates too-fast time-outs with a passion, that is a big plus in my evaluation of Intertops.
However if, by software, we are just talking about the layout then yeah it's pretty bad.

Their website says, NT withdraw takes up to 48 hours. Is this true? has anyone made NT withdraw with intertops before and how long was the wait?

I have done it and they take every second of that 48 hours.

There are definitely some interesting lines on football spreads. Nice book for middling as well as gambling.
The soft lines can show up anywhere: spreads, totals and moneylines.

The last time I used them several years ago, the wait was well over a week (cashout was over 5 figures though).
Another plus to this book is their poker room is a skin of PartyPoker, so there is plenty of traffic and security there and you can move money from the poker room to the sportsbook with a 4k max if I remember correctly (I don't have the software on my computer anymore).

Yep, nba and ncaab.
When you get into "lesser" sports (like tennis or boxing or whatever), the lines get sillier with high juice, but all the major North American team sports are worth keeping an eye on at Intertops in my experience.

That is the case with all books except Pinnacle and to a lesser degree, 5dimes.
