Hey guys, I have been playing at TopBet for 3 years now. I am wanting to try a book with more betting options. Any advice about which book to go with? Thanks in advance.

Depends what you like to bet on. If you aren't a big player then go with 5dimes. They have reduced juice up to $500 per bet and a good amount of wagering options. If you are a bigger player (betting multiple thousand per bet) or play a lot of ingames, go with bookmaker.

One thing that really interested me about BookMaker is the DC withdrawal option. Anyone tried that?

most people like it ---i don't. too many fees come with it. not all by bookmaker or the card company. my bank also has fees associated with it. other withdrawals all come with high fees. 5 dimes way cheaper to get your money. 1 a month free. really free. unlike the so called free dc card from bookmaker.

Go to a different ATM, plenty of ATMs give free withdrawals with these cards. Try the ones that rhyme with space.

The fees do add up but it's still better than most other options. The card charges a $5 per month maintenance fee but bookmaker allows 1 free withdrawal per month. If you use it a lot, then it's worth paying the $5 per month fee. For the guy who barely withdraws and is constantly reloading, it's not worth it.

thanks - appreciate all comments - pro and what i would consider a con($5/month fee). bookmaker has been around for a long time with good reason. but because of the high fees for other than dc and real high fees to do a book to book which cost them nothing and no one else charges for book to book or even the lower fees now with dc i would rather play elsewhere, like 5dimes.
