**natrass** · 05-29-06, 04:22 PM

yep, bricks correct, best is betfair if you cant then pinnacle (or pointbet if you are brave enough to be with an Indonesian bookie).

i found vipsports to ok too though.

Mansion for soccer???? You obviously have very little knowledge of the range of books that are good for soccer winston.

I think that must be the first time I have ever heard anyone recommend mansion for soccer in my life (except to get the free £50 bonuses).

Question : have you ever even looked at the mansion site?

Is someone here using 10bets?
I read somwhere they like to void many bets.
I saw their quite nice limits.
Personally I am keen with Expekt, but I do not say they are the best.
Thanx.

lol...Slash of course doesnt have your endless wisdom Natrass, but the Mansion exchange will be as good for world cup soccer as it is for bases

Just look at the lines smartass.

Pinny is the best sportsbook prolly, i dont know much about european books, but i would be surprised if any have 8c lines like pinny for WC.

So basically check out Pinnacle and Mansion, you can *never* go wrong with those - they are the leaders atm.

**Brick Tamland** · 05-29-06, 07:40 PM

pointbet wagerweb and 5dimes...also bos if you dont mind getting your winning wagers reversd.

**Concorde** · 05-29-06, 10:33 PM

Mansion beat Pinny in ...

1) Best odds ( both Asian handicap and 3 way betting with the exception of Pinny "reduced" in Asian spreads up to $200 ).

2) Higher limits ( 10 times more in some cases, 100K vs 10K ) in EVERY BIG LEAGUE including Champions league and Uefa Cup.

3) At Mansion you can wager a "double chance" ( 1X , 12 , X2 ) in EVERY game.

4) You can make offers at Mansion.

Pinny beat Mansion in ...

1 ) You can buy/sell up to 0.5/1 goal on most games ( you cant do that at Mansion ).

2 ) Pinny has more leagues.

3 ) Pinny has 2nd half lines on most games.

For me they are like my rigth and left hand, dont take me out one of the two or i will "die".

For small players like you Mansion probably isn't suitable, so I guess that's why you have absolutely zero knowledge about them.

Hint: When you go to the Mansion site, click "Exchange" at the top...

I think, actually, I am SURE that pointbet has the best soccer odds 90 % of the time. however, it is always a small risk to play with them but I personally never had any problems even I had up to 10.000 US$ with them few times. Pinnacle is good for "reduced margin" offers and for internatinal games while 10bet is becoming better every day. Together with betfair and sometimes parbet these 5 places will have the best odds 99,99 % of the time and that is probably all you need!
One more thing, if you bet with really big wagers like 5000 US$ then try Victor Chandler or again pointbet (but then the risk is probably too high) and 10bet

**pjesnik24** · 05-30-06, 05:44 AM

forgot to say that mansion is also great but somehow they manage NEVER to have the best odds for anything even their margin is very low

**natrass** · 05-30-06, 01:16 PM

Actually, forgot to say, perhaps the best for US bettors who cant get to betfair is bet365 (yeah, I know bet£3.65 ... but if you are not limited you get very competitive odds). Also, they have a good bonus for rec players and as their US sports odds are poor, this may be as good a time as any.

Yes, they have unique offer of selling and buying points for everything. But I got the limit there after few soccer bets. Although there is sometimes often value, I can not recommend bet on soccer there. Or bet but far from the max... And their initial max is not very high.

**Odds-Hunter** · 05-30-06, 03:00 PM

if your looking for the best in asian handicap. I personally would recommend in this order.

BetFair
Pinnacle
Mansion
10Bet
Bet365
MultiBet
Unibet
BetInternet
Gamebookers
Expekt
CentreBet
Canbet
Pointbet

Have used all of these bookmakers within the last 6-7 years or so and have made withdrawal requests at each without any hassle. Except for a few which want to know your whole life history on your first withdrawal. But after that smooth sailing.

Many of the shops that have been listed do not even offer asian handicap...and if they do the odds are incredibly overpriced and laughable. Stick with the first 5 listed as i can almost guarantee you will NOT find better odds anywhere else.

To get an idea at what the odds are at various books try Betbrain.com.

To get openers and heavy odds changes as well as asian line moves check out asianodds.org

Must have in order to see which way the asian market is going.

Good luck on your Calcio wagering.

OH

**pjesnik24** · 05-30-06, 03:41 PM

well, I personally agree with the list but not with the order. I mean, pointbet in the last place? behind bet365, multibet and others? Only reason you can put pointbet inthe last place is because it might be risky to bet with them but if you believe that you should not put pointbet to your recommended list at all.

I'd also recommend using an odds service. Most are free and i often find a bit of variation in the prices offered. You'll need a neteller or some such account to move money quickly however.
