    it depends what market do u like.
    i think pinnacle is the best, if you like usa sports and asians.
    if you like special markets for soccer i think willhill is good.

    you must decide yourself what you like bet on.
    Best regards

    what's so different about London?

    Betfair, Pinnacle, SBO, 188 and Matchbook depending on what you prefer to bet on

    There is a bunch here:
    http://www.sportsbookreview.com/forum/sbr-pro/

    I like WilliamHill the most out of those. The only bad thing is that they are useless on live chat. Use phone if you have a problem.

    It is a good choice if you are mostly interested in footy and horses.

    I don't understand this stuff
    I became a "pro" without having to open any new accounts.
    I simply used my existing BJam account
    What am I missing here?

    Yeah come to think of it, all we had to do was to e-mail our username to sbr. I think you had to have the account funded for so and so much. But I could not see anything on the link. Maybe if you click the "become a pro!" link under your username it will tell you if that option is still available. When I look at the link I gave earlier it is implied that you have to open a new account.

    Will Hill? lol. Forget these lot online. They will limit you to nothing if you have two winning bets or happen to bet a value price regardless of the result. Avoid all UK books at all cost. Will Hill dont even price events up these days, they simply post lines from other books and then spend all day looking for reasons to ban you. Pinn, Betfair, IBC, SBO, Matchbook & The Greek are the only options if you happen do any homework beforen placing your bets.

    you are right Joey .... but ......

    most of these Euro books do offer competitive prices at times which are worth taking advantage of

    no harm in using them and taking them for what you can until you get limited to the stage of them no longer being worthwhile

    I've been through about 25 of them over the years and made good money from them and I'm on the lookout for any new ones which I can trust to see what I can get out of them before they effectively shut me down

    Nothing, that I am aware of. That was my experience as well; simply used my existing 5Dimes account.

    I think you get 100 betpoints when you become pro via the SBR link. If you use an existing account you still get pro, but no points.
