Cascade working through some changes but they will be fine.

Great call JJ, a mere 2 months before they stopped paying everyone. So accurate!

Heritage these fukks r havin problems wit mi payout request via wire its been 17 days....if i had known shit was gona take this long woulda asked for fedex checks sum BS goin on wit their processors this could be the longest ive ever had to wait for mi money.

**losemyloot** · 02-17-12, 07:45 PM

For US punters I would say 5dimes, betislands, rebatewager, justbet, and legends

**stevenash** · 02-17-12, 07:49 PM

DSI is solid, their lines are square, but the book is solid.

**Russinat** · 02-19-12, 12:29 PM

I get paid regularly using Intertops. Realize they aren't the coolest site, but they're fair.

**Monte** · 02-19-12, 01:32 PM

Only shit left for the U.S., if you think one of them is good its prolly just cos you forgot what good books look like.

**Frogger** · 02-21-12, 01:26 AM

I went to Cascade's site for fun. I laughed when I clicked on "old history" in upper right to see what came up and it went to an error page.

I would try to forget too.

**young chad** · 02-21-12, 01:50 AM

So nobody digs bovada?

Heritage are scammers. They lie through their teeth but eventually get you their money. It's in their business plan.

Hellll no. Bad lines. Late lines. Even more than usual limited deposit methods. Limits collars quicker than most. But they do pay and they have the best website software bar none. That's not enough for me tho

It will be funny to see how that list looks in another 5 years.

I hope there are more good books out there in 5 years. It's better to have more choices. Would be nice to see 10 great books for US. More options for players. Now some books are like sticking to a job you dont like cause you need it. They piss you off but since you dont have other good options you keep playin with them.

**flyingillini** · 02-21-12, 02:43 AM

The three I play at are the best around.
#1 Heritage
#2 Sbobet
#3 Bitcoinsportsbook.com ( you need an agent )

Good to hear. I just started using them and have made a nice run tripling my deposit. Haven't got a payout yet though.

**fixxer** · 02-21-12, 04:29 AM

It differs on the playing style...for medium stake EU players, there are a lot of good bookies for example

**eleuropeano** · 02-21-12, 04:51 AM

and then for any stake EU players you have Betfair and Pinnacle, and you are done.

I'm afraid the situation for US plaers will not markedly improve until the government realize how much money they can make off of online gambling licenses and taxes and legalize it.

**robzilla** · 02-21-12, 10:33 AM

The only place I trust is Pinnicle. If you arent getting PIN lines, dont even bother.
SIA for small bets (just cuz I'm Canadian)... I wouldnt leave a large balance there tho.

Which places are you talking about?(does any other states besides Nevada, accept gambling and betting?) Also I have another question, betting in general is illegal in USA, or just online one?

**probettor1** · 03-02-12, 07:21 PM

Sport betting is illegal in every state of USA except las Vegas. It is illegal to bet online and with bookies. You might bet with a friend as long as there is no bookie in the middle. The use of the bookie make it illegal. You also can bet in certain cruises or ships as long as you are 3 miles offshores. It is consider a misdemeanor outside of las Vegas. Even calling someone in las Vegas to take your bet is illegal as not telephone or internet may be used to place bets outside of Las Vegas. Why 15 millions of americans bet even though it is illegal? because illegal betting hasn't been a priority of the goverment, the police force or any other institution in the country. Besides it it was legal the numbers of american betting would probably be 150 millions not 15. Should you bet? If you are young and want to work in workplaces where a measdemeanor will affect your chances of being hire you might consider avoid betting. Yes the chances of getting caught are very low, but your chances of winning in the long run are even lower. The statute of limitation for illegal betting is 1 year. So if you stop betting now in 12 month you are innocent of all counts even if you get caught.

I would put betdsi in there too but I know they are a part of bookmaker so I guess the list looks good too me. Maybe there are a few others like Betislands but the ones that are listed are ones that seem to definitely pay when you win. And we know that is extremely important.

**prop** · 03-03-12, 04:01 PM

1.Bookmaker
2.5Dimes
3.Justbet
4.Intertops
5.YouWager
6.Legends
7.Heritage
8.DSI
9.BetIslands
10.RebateWager

Looks like things have improved a lot since 2007. Maybe can even do:

11.BetMania
12.Bovada
13.GTBets
14.VIPSports.eu
15.Dimeline
16. BetOnline

Could even do a top 30 if we listed out brands from same groups separate.

**xKMACKx** · 03-03-12, 04:32 PM

Never any issues with Pinnacle, Matchbook, or 5Dimes; however, I haven't used 5Dimes in over a year.

Pinnacle payouts in less than 5 minutes, Matchbook approximately 2 hours to an e-wallet
