        The Greek or Diamond?

        I have been in Bet Jamaica, The Greek, Bookmaker, and Bet US.

        I liked the Greek the best of all of them but I never requested a payout yet so I do not know about how they do in that regard.

        Do you still feel The Greek is strong financially? I wish these books were audited by some accounting firms so we knew if they were financially stable.

        Does anyone else think The Diamond Sports Book is better than The Greek? If so, in what way? Or in what way is the Greek better?

        Thanks for your feedback, Bob

        P.S. If you are a system investor and not a gambler and you want to build up your account over time then you do not want to be in Bet Jamaica since they only offer US Dollar accounts and that currency is going to keep falling to its true value of zero. Pinnacle,The Greek, Bookmaker, and Diamond Sports Book all offer accounts in currencies outside the U.S. Dollar. So go with one of those books and not with 5 Dimes or Bet Jamaica if you are a sports investor and not a gambler. Currencies which should do well in the future are the Canadian Dollar, Australian Dollar, Euro, and the Norwegian Kroner. So pick one of those for your sports book account when you open up your account with them.

              if you are betting on tennis and soccer, I would definitely not recommend you with betjam. They are great for main sporting events like MLB, NFL, NBA, etc.... but they totally suck with tennis and soccer. I like thegreek for tennis and soccer better with higher limits..

                  Greek and BetJam are on a higher level than Diamond IMO and from my experiences.

                    Throw out Betjam, completely worthless for tennis and soccer.

                      I get Greek and Bet Jam payouts (fed ex) in one day, Im putting in a request at DSI today from the BTP winnings from last week. I will be real impressed with DSI if they can match the others payout speed.

                        I am happy with bet jam... They are not the best to deal with on the phone but I still feel they are very reliable.

                            totally agree.... not the best customer service but their reliability and quick payout is on the top

                              these 3 are all more or less the same - my personal favorite (out of these 3) is the The Greek

                                    I like The Greek and Bet Jamaica. Both of them have been very good to me.

                                        dont take any bonuses ;; just a hook for the book to stall payouts;; if u are that bad a bonus wont save u;; why do u think the books offer them;; they get to keep the winnings longer

                                        the 3 books are all solid but bjam has fewest betting options like they wont let u buy pts in a parlay unless u phone and thats sucks ,; that means u have to give username and password over the phone which is not secure imo;;

                                            Bet Jam not encrypted

                                            Bet Jam site is not encrypted on either IE or Firefox. I have told them before numerous times but they keep saying it is. Their College games are listed randomly so a 12 noon listed game is followed by a 7:30pm followed by a 3:30 game etc. They also have a 100 box office pool however I won once and had to prove to them that my box was the winning one. Last night's Rutgers-Army game box pool was finalized in THE FIRST QUARTER with bogus scores for the game. I called them during the 1st period and was told the Tech guy was out on a break and would look at it when he came back. Nothing has been done and I sent them an email this AM with no reply as of yet. I am a small player but if I was putting serious dough in I think I would look elsewhere.

                                              Spread the money out over betjamaica, greek, diamond, 5dimes and matchbook. Look for the best line in all situations.... betting with little to no options is a good way to lose in the longrun. All 5 of those books are solid (not sure about diamond, actually, but i think they are affiliated with bookmaker so they should be solid financially)

                                                  A friend of mine was just asked by the Greek for proof of wire by sending them the wire receipt. Not even banks do that. Do they do that to slow up processing it so they can use the money to make payouts with and just generally slow up things or what is their thinking in this matter?
