Matchbook will be confusing to a first time bettor. I suggest 5dimes or betjamaica to get you started. Do NOT play at Betus!

Exchange betting can be new/different and hard to comprehend for some. 5Dimes, Betjam, or Matchbook are all good safe places to start.

for the first time player, I suggest you try Linesmaker or betusa. when you get more familiar, when move onto those high rating books (5dimes, Thegreek, betjamaica, matchbook or Pinnacle).

Hi I'm new here, have been using a local book and have moved and was looking to try something new...

I was looking through different options and narrowed it down to Matchbook.com, 5Dimes, or BetUS...

BetUS seems to have both terrible and amazing reviews depending on who you talk to... and I am drawn more toward matchbook then 5dimes... is matchbook a good place to start? should i take a chance with BetUS?

I am a recreational type of bettor from the US...

Any advice would be appreciated

Thanks

What sports do you want to bet on? If you're more interested in betting US sports then Betjamaica is the one for you. However, if you wish to bet on European sports, you may want to go with 5Dimes. Betjamaica are known to have terrible soccer odds.

I agree with the other posters that matchbook (or any exchange) can be very confusing to punters whom do not have a huge grasp of gambling online.

I aslo agree with the others posters that you should NOT go near BETUSA. Jakk mentioned, go with Linesmaker or Betusa, I personally would not recommend these due to their rating. You'll feel safer in the long run with a book like 5Dimes or any A+ rated sportsbook.

Whatever option you choose, the best of luck.

Im interested in US sports and as far as European sports go just soccer.

5 Dimes is looking like the one to begin with.
