    Diamond or The Greek (NFL/NCAA & Bonuses)
    I narrowed it down to these two books because they both accept transfers from 5Dimes (max $500), A+, etc.

    Diamond: 10% (3x), 20% (5x). Looks like stricter betting rules for FPs.

    The Greek: 21% (4x). Seem less specific about FP limitations.

    I bet NFL and NCAA Football, mostly ATS, though a good portion on Totals (which may be an issue with Diamond FP), and sometimes MLs. I love 1Qs, rarely parlay, and would like to parlay within 1 game (5Dimes doesn't allow this).

    Thoughts?

      Actually I think you'll find that Greek's bonus is cash, not a freeplay.

      Since it's not baseball season, I would lean towards the Greek.

      They are both good books. Many similarities. Full-juice, lots of selection, lots of moneylines. Decent limits.

      Apart from the better bonus, the Greek is friendlier on withdrawals.

        You will not get a bonus on a sportsbook transfer

          I remember someone asking about that awhile back (over the summer??) and they did end up getting a sign-up bonus at the Greek on a sportsbook transfer.

          Don't know if that has changed.

          Definitely worth confirming ahead of time. Wally will let you know.

            Thanks guys!

            I really appreciate the feedback. My preference is The Greek, as I consistently hear good things about the book, though I wanted to ask because Diamond is also very well rated. I'm definitely going to check about getting the bonus $, as I'd rather keep my $ at 5Dimes if I don't get anything for the transfer. I tend to like 5Dimes lines, but every once in awhile lines pop up better that I wish I could get. Also, does The Greek let you do same game parlays (ATS + O/U)?

              I am a customer at both books and am completely satisfied with both places. Diamond is backed by Cris/Bookmaker so it is completely safe. And Greek is Greek so it is completely safe. I have a payment pending from Diamond and will let you know how long it takes. The longest up to this point has been 3 business days.

                Diamond's freeplay is only worth about 10% really due to the restrictions (no moneylines etc), maybe 14% if you bet on nhl alt runlines.

                    That's my concern.

                    I'm going to contact TG and see if they will give me a bonus on a B2B transfer.
