    YouWager Good Book?
    How is YouWager as a book? From the forum I hear many mixed reviews just like for any other book. Please give me your honest feedback with this book.

    I used them a few years back for about 1 year as a fifth or sixth option because I heard good things about them. As a book they don't really offer anything special that sets them apart from others but I will say I did get paid by them and within a descent timeframe everytime I requested a withdraw. I left because I started to read a lot of negative posts regarding them and like I stated above they were nothing special where I was going to risk my funds by staying around. I can't say that all the posts I were indeed factual but anytime I see multiple negative threads, I try to get my funds out. Personally though I didn't have a problem with them but they should never be your number 1, 2, or even third book.

      I just started using them and everything seems fine. Obviously the lines aren't matchbook or pinnacle quality, but good enough if you are in it more for the fun of it or if you just like another place with options. They also have a nice and easy bonus/reward system that shouldn't be too much of a challenge to beat. Your money should also be pretty safe here.

      I was surprised by their coverage and good lines on soccer. Worth checking out if you are interested in that.

      Some negative things though..

      You only get a free payout if it is 60 days since your last deposit. However if you place 7 baseball bets, 7 basketball bets and 7 soccer bets in a week you can apply for a free payout the following week. No idea if they cover enough european basketball or if they replace it with another sport when NBA is not around. Also they don't do book to book transfers with a lot of places, not with 5Dimes last time I checked, and someone reported yesterday that they don't do transfers with BetPhoenix despite of the SBR report stating otherwise a short while ago.

      And apparently they like to call you a lot. They have never called me though, maybe because the costs are just too high because I am overseas. Yes they now take european clients, so get in there if you are interested. Also they recently launched yet another book that seems to target the asian market called hanplayer.

      Also from what I can tell from the site, payout options are limited to cheque and bank wire. It says "minimum $7500" on bank wire, so that is not really an option for most people. You should probably ask them about the payout options and fees associated with it, but I think it said $55 for a cheque (if not entitled to free payout obviously).

      There are some pictures in this thread:
      Sports betting and handicapping forum: discuss picks, odds, and predictions for upcoming games and results on latest bets.

      The pictures are like 4 years old. Hopefully they all have flat screen monitors by now.

              FWIW,Bookmakers Review gives them a 2.5 which is weak.

              2.5 Weak. Assigned to bookmakers with more blemishes than strengths and/or vulnerable to problems and adverse business conditions. 2.5 is also the initial rating for new bookmakers when they do not have ties with established betting operations or when certain elements such as public information and players' feedback are limited. While a rating of 2.5 doesn't necessarely means that your funds are at risk more than they would be with a higher-rated bookmaker, we believe there is no particular advantage in playing with bookmakers rated 2.5.

                Wow, I had no idea they had been around that long. I thought they were only about 2 years old.
