    Yes, their high juice and their BS lines are becoming a joke. The only thing good about them is their high limits.

    I'm going to unload on NFL playoffs and the Super Bowl, then I will take out my money from these jokers.

    Have you seen their MLB lines? These fkers have most their MLB totals set at -120 juice...

    After years of hearing from two of my gambling buddies on how good bookmaker was I decided to try them out and was not impressed Still probably the only US book for big time bettors and this is not good!

    Still to this day, even with several sources competing, the best site during the early hours for American Football. I find bets here near every week that Pinnacle never offered nor won't ever offer on given game.

    I only bet 100-200 and losing. They still treat me as non-recreational, with high fees and no promo. So this is what is listed as A+ book for Pro.

    The SBR ratings they have for the books left for the US player are a joke. They can get away with treating the US player like shit because there are not many alternatives for us unlike players from other countries.

    Considering how easy it his for our corrupt government to seize money from these books none should be given a rating higher than a C and that is not even considering the shitty lines, high fee's, crappy customer service, low limits and banning from comps programs.

    IMHO You sound like you would be better off playing at Betislands,Heritage, or 5 dimes.

    Yes, I use them all. Bookmaker is still useful for me for live betting and transfer with Betmaker.

    Bookmaker is not for big time bettors, they are for big time losers. I was losing to them for almost 2 years but as soon as you get lucky, they cut your limits.

    No way that happened. If theres one thing BM is good for, its that they will take bets from pros.

    "High fees,cutbacks,high juice,bad lines,shit lines,horrible customer service"

    What type of high fees are you paying and what was the horrible customer service like?

    I mean in the racebook. I know because they lowered my limits, took away the rebates and finally only let me bet $10 WPS and no exotics.

    Can you explain the difference?

    Some of you people crack me up. You want them to just post the number you want to bet? How about having multiple outs and shopping around if you are worried about the line you want. The one think I can agree on is that they have terrible juice on baseball. Other than that they are a rock solid book. Customer service is very average at most of these books so good luck find one that will kiss your ass. As far as the high fees, you get one free payout a month, and if the cost to get a check is to much then you are probably a low limit bettor, which is fine, just look around at other books that cater to rec players.

    Bookmaker is the only out left to US players that you can get a decent sized wager down without them limiting you.
