    Recommended Sportsbook for Canadians?

    Hey SBR,

    What sportsbooks site(s) do you recommend a Canadian like myself?

    I mainly only wager on MMA, NHL and NBA and I'm looking for a site with the easiest deposits, payouts to Canada and the best odds.

    I'm currently on Bodog and the odds there are terrible for MMA. I'm thinking of switching to 5dimes or Pinnacle. Which would you recommend and why?

    Thanks again!

    Thanks for the quick replies

    Whats the verification process like at Pinnacle? At Bodog, I was required to scan a bunch of stuff.

    Also, I'll most likely be using wire. How much are the fees to deposit and withdraw from Pinnacle?

    5dimes withdraw fee is like $60-80 for wire

    1. Pinnacle
    2. The Greek
    3. Cris
    4. Bet 365

    All of the above can have accounts in CDN$ so you don't have to convert to US$.
    Use ********** for deposits and withdrawals. Deposits are free and you can get free withdrawals from all. Cris gives one every 30 days for free though.

    Ok, I can't use that word but sign up with that company and you can deposit or withdraw money from your Canadian bank account.
    I am cheap and don't like to pay fees and this way is free.

    Unless you don't need money in a hurry I withdrew from 5 Dimes 2 years ago using their courier for free on Mondays during their time period.

    Clients who do not use our free account to account transfer option now receive one free withdrawal per calendar month. There is no minimum amount required for your free withdrawal and you may use any of your authorized withdrawal methods. All additional withdrawals during the calendar month, for any amount using any withdrawal method, incur a fee. Please see the Cashier information pages of the site for more information on fees.
