Advice? Which is the better book?

Neither book has great bonuses. The Greek is a shell of its former self, now basically a skin run by Heritage (not that that's a bad thing).

Neither would be my choice.

The Greek used to be one of the top books for u.s customers back in the day. They got out of the u.s market years ago. I did not even know they were still around. Betjamaica was their sister book and they don't exist anymore. No experience with intertops

Thank you guys for your input! It's much appreciated. Definitely not going with either of these books if people don't suggest them!

Greek is a great book, early lines and easy to deal with.

Not big on bonuses but have 20% or something like that usually.

A must have for motorsport bettors like me.

Agree with Optional, theGreek is a geat sportsbook. I actively use about 10 sportbooks and theGreek is one of them. Same day payouts!

imho intertops is a poor choice, unless you are a $10 max bettor and don't mind waiting a week to be paid pocket change.

For all the same reasons Optional and express say they like the Greek, why not Jazz Sports? Except Jazz has better bonuses, often times faster payouts and the occasional opinionated line. Actually, isn't it a crime they aren't rated an A+? It's been 2 years in July since they've been upgraded. Confusing

Hell, I've seen sportsbooks upgraded and downgraded at breaknecks speeds during that same time, take sportsbettingonline.ag as an example. It's difficult to understand how it happened, but over that same period (actually 2 months less) starting back in sept 2014 they went from C- to D+, less than 6 months, back to a C-, 5 months later a full C, then beginning of Jan back to a C- and now back to a D+. All this happening while there were rampant payout complaints filed with SBR.

I don't know, maybe I'm being unnecessarily picky with SBR, but there seems to me like they pick and choose the books they want to play with. I could be wrong, but if you took those exact same valuations with sbo you would grade Jazz/ABC out as an A+. Just saying.

Hey Insider how do you receive payout with Jazz Sports? They don't really have many options listed on their website. Thanks for your help!
