    Legends: SBR Pro Advice

    Looking to open a small account at a sponsored book to become an SBR Pro.
    My main book right now is Pinnacle.
    Unfortunately can't open an NEW account at 5dimes because apparently I have an old account there (haven't deposited in years)-they were my 2nd choice.
    So I am looking at Legends, but I am little scared off by what I am reading about them limiting "sharps". Does this mean they limit bets if you get hot or something else? Anyone have any experience with this book?
    I am only looking to deposit probably 4 or 5 hundred bucks, mostly to take advantage of the sbr pro program.
    Thanks for any advice

    Legends is a good choice, numismatist. They offer some of the best initial signup bonuses around. I'd say a $400-500 deposit would probably get you a 25%+ cash bonus. Then you can enroll as an SBR Pro getting those benefits also.

    Ask for Rachel or Hazel there - they have taken good care of me and other SBR members. Let me know if I can answer anything else - I've been with Legends for about 5 years and have never had limits reduced or anything like that.

    Legends is a no go. Apparently they won't accept Neteller deposits from Canada. I have been depositing and withdrawing from neteller through pinnacle for years.

    Ah - sorry to hear that, numismatist. Looks like bet365 would not be a problem depositing CAD with Neteller - you can get signed up here. Nice 100% match looks like it is being offered on $200 deposit, which is also enough to become an SBR Pro.

    Have not used bet365 since they don't accept US players. But we rate them a solid A- here at SBR and you can check our review here.

    You do not get your 100% cash bonus from Bet365 until you have cleared a rollover on your deposit first IIRC.

    There is not much to limit....1k on sides and 500 on totals is all you can do anyhow.
    The lines are mostly vanilla but occasionally you can find something different.
    They do offer bonuses and Legends is generally considered to be one of the safest books.

    guys, i appreciate the advice but right now after some experiences i have had in live chat, it looks like i am going to have to hold off on becoming an SBR pro until some of these other books get their shit together. brutal.

    They actually deposited my bonus right away. I have to roll it over 3x however before I make a withdrawal. And thats OK.
    So far I like this book.

    Thanks reload. The SBR pro program is definitely worth it.

    How is that possible?

    Neteller stopped servicing Canadian gambling accounts in April, 2007.

    They do not currently allow Canadian transactions to gambling sites.

    Isn't Canada open to online gambling? Couldn't you post up in just about any other method?
