Sorry, I forgot to add that (1st post edit quote) P.S. Also, I eliminated the likes of Ladbrokes, Paddy Power, Stan James and Will Hill because limited number of leagues they offer.

EDIT: Now checked Will Hill again, and seems that they have better options than Expext f.e. Thanks horja!

On rare ocasions you will actually find matches on WillHill that Bet365 does not offer ... and WillHill is for sure a better rated book than Expekt, Marathonbet or Unibet (not only at SBR)

**Misanthrope_Hz** · 01-12-14, 08:00 AM

Pfff... last half an hour was reading horror stories about Will Hill here on SBR. Not paying, closing accounts etc.
I really like their offer, and up to now it's Marathon vs. Will Hill. Will Hill have the best rating everywhere, exactly. Waiting for more responses...

Marathon will limit you fast.

**jjgold** · 01-12-14, 09:09 AM

I would have both

Willy Hill and Marathon

Get verified first at Marathon

What Country you from??

**Digo** · 01-12-14, 09:21 AM

Marathon has a lot of complains about payouts and will limit you very fast...

Bosnia.

One would be enough, and if I keep getting responses in current manner, that would be Will Hill (it seem that there is no bookie w/o cons, except his majesty - Pinnacle).

Offtopic: Don't know do you have the rights to do so (if not, do you know who have?), but I would like my nickname changed, I want it default on all betting related boards. Many thanks in advance if you can do it for me. New nickname: Betallica

If you use mostly for combos, maybe Marathon will not limit you very fast. Every bookmaker like combos more then singles.

I think you have to get this account closed and make a new one with the new nick

I do singles for maybe 90% of my total bets. I need one bookmaker just for combos, and I need o/u 0.5 goals market for that, because there can be found extreme value prices (yes, even ~1.40 can represent huge value). Wouldn't mind playing singles too if there is remarkable price difference.

But you still just think. I'll wait jjgold, as I like this account, just nickname doesn't match my overall appearance.

Tnx!

**onemoregoal** · 01-12-14, 05:04 PM

willhill will just cause problems if your from Bosnia........

**Misanthrope_Hz** · 01-12-14, 06:16 PM

Why? Because our reputation? We qualified for Brasil, maybe now things changed.

I would act like recreational bettor (playing combos), but still with strict money management... think it's good for staying under the radar.

Still Marathon vs WillHill tie.

**Zuz?L** · 01-12-14, 06:18 PM

Read nearest threads about how "good" marathon is at giving money back, than you can decide. For example I have not got my money yet(month and five days)

**Misanthrope_Hz** · 01-12-14, 07:22 PM

I have... that's what bugging me most. But they pay in the end. Pretty much the same for Will Hill and every other EU bookie. Pros and cons on both side. Would like to hear more 1st hand experiences.

Thanks all for responses so far, I'll wait weekend for more and then open account... somewhere.

**kaalhode** · 01-13-14, 02:53 PM

If you go for Marathonbet, be sure to get verified before you deposit. A lot of people, me included, are stuck in the verification queue, and it is very, very frustrating having to wait for them to process your verification.

**dikefale** · 01-13-14, 06:46 PM

Marathon is way to go Mizantrop. I advise u to verify your account first.
If u are arber they will limit you like most of euro based shops,but if u place various types of bets,not hitting their weakest lines you would be good.
People dont get one thing about marathon limits. They maybe limit you to 300$ per bet for examle,but you can refill it again and again same like at pinnacle...

**Misanthrope_Hz** · 01-14-14, 06:07 PM

Case closed, it was between Marathon and Will Hill, I was about to open account @Marathon when suddenly one guy told me that bet365 have such market, under the name ''clean sheet''.
Not that good offer as in Marathon or Hills though, but should be enough for now.

Thanks all for your responses, will consider Marathon sometimes in future for sure.
