Great book no complaints here, the lines are much better than traditional books and the payouts are quick.

You'll find a lot more substance by searching for threads on MB, they often contain actual specific substance, but if you just wanted to hear "they're solid", I guess you got your answer.

Be careful. It's much easier to run an exchange than a book. And they were still downgraded to B-... If they drop to C you may well see an exodus.

Where books must always be attentive, an exchange isn't punished for a relaxed attitude. A few months ago I told someone at MB that he sounded like he was hanging back, smoking. He started giggling uncontrollably, stoned out of his brain.

They are rumored to have taken bets on credit. Such as a 500K NCAAB bet by a recently deceased gambler?

The problem? Theoretically, an exchange is never at risk and should always be able to pay. But if the rumors are true this exchange could have a problem if there would ever be a run on the bank.

How is the rumor now? and what does "Run on the bank" mean?

matchbook is a much have book for US players. Cos they have best odds and lowest commission.

Only reason sbr downgraded them to b- is because mb canceled sponsoring money. Look how many complaints betphoenix had in the last couple of months and they are still b+. Pathetic.

Well regarding mb. Often best lines if there is an offer. Payouts to e-wallets within 60 minutes.

Matchbook

Matchbook MLB lines blow away the traditional sportsbooks. A must have for baseball bettors. Come to think of it, they are a must have for football, and basketball.

As far as their SBR rating. If you don't grease SBR your rating will drop. Thats a hell of hammer to have on books currently paying SBR.

My personal experience with Matchbook on payouts: Extremely fast. Never a problem. They also offer book to book transfers to major sportsbooks for free.

Compare bookmaker lines with matchbook. If you can breakeven at bookmaker, you will make $1000s at matchbook.

u get very good odds at matchbook but they are very stupid at matchbook
and u can not se if there is commission credits missing from your account so keep your eye on it
