    what is the WORST A or B rated Sportsbook?

    In my opinion it has to be Interwetten.

    1) They charge you to deposit money. So whether you're a punter or a sharp, you're out like 1% or whatever just for depositing. Thanks guys

    2) There's a CHARGE if your bet PUSHES! In some sports more than others this happens OFTEN, and can really be costly. I mean come on guys, thats greasy

    3) Weird limits. They explained to me once that it was relative to how much you deposit. I put on like $200 and they wouldn't let me bet more than $45 per bet. I'm a grown up I don't need my bankroll babysat.


    I'd like to hear from everyone else. What book with a fairly solid rating is just the shits in your opinion?

    Bodog. With double dealing lines, slowpay ect. It is most certainly the worst a/b book.

    I've never had a cashout from them. Their dogs usually have value, but I don't have enough experience iwth them so far

    i love everything about bovada, but their payouts. took 4 weeks to get my check. i know processors now can be a bitch, but really? they won't do ** at all unless you said them 1,000+. and being a mofo who only deposits 50 or so at a time, thats not gonna happen

    Never played with BOL (and never will of course..) but from reading these forums, they are by far the worst A or B book.

    Hate is a strong word.. but there is plenty wrong with a few top tier books

    5Dimes - worst customer service
    Betonline - slowest website known to man!
    Legends - win one time and never get a bonus again..very rec book.. vanilla lines anyway
    Pinnacle - best book in world but doesn't accept USA should mean downgrade compared to books who take the needed risks to service clientele

    Gotta disagree on Pinny. A book gets a rating based on performance. It performs very well all around and deserves the highest rating.

    If you are a winning bettor and that is your only source of income then get out of the US anyway. Having to pay taxes on gambling winnings is -EV

    Wow this is unreal. I have never heard of a book that did these thing. They must pay SBR a lot of cheese to be rated anything higher then a D for this shit.

    What is your guys problem with betonline? Cause I play there and the only problem I have ever had with them is that they never actually give me any of the bonuses they offer.

    Bodog is a garbage book at this point, and I don't understand how they are an A.. Betonline is also a joke. While 5dimes has terrible customer service, I can agree for the most part with them being an A book.

    Plenty of 5 dimes haters. Sure their CS is not the best, but that is one sold book. Been playing there for 9 months and hands down the best book I have used out of 6. Low minimums, liberal parlay rules, great racebook, overnight lines, etc.

    Sounds like they just charge you, no sportsbook here.

    Yea Betonline. Please stay away lol. Next would be bodog. They juice the crap out of everything. And then move hte lines favoring the house while juicing it the other direction. lol. Heritage is what i primarily use, betislands is good too. Heritage's delivery of customer service requires patience but the only solid thing is that they are solid with payouts.

    anybody saying betonline is worse than bovada is a ******* square dunce. betonline has by far more options to deposit/withdraw, bet on.. elite casino and they pay. they do pull every trick in the book to try to slow pay but if you are on your shit then this shouldnt be a problem cause you will be on their ass every day till you get your payment. as for bovada... christ they wouldnt even take MD players... also tried to deposit with them back when they still took MD players and my card never went through. no p2p depos/withdrawals. checks take 3-4 weeks from all of the threads i read on them and i read alot. no way in hell i would play at bovada even if they allowed me to. 4 weeks for a payment that may not clear isnt even worth the win. betonline has issues too but they offeralot more than bovada can right now..
