      Matchbook has always payed me and they will forever have the best lines. Plus in game wagering is where you can turn a pretty profit if you can get +200-500 odds if say your team is down 1 run or so. People will also offer up retarded plays to try to get you to bite. Make sure you read into it since it works slightly different than a sportbook does.

        Matchbook's odds on liquid markets make it a mandatory out. If you are betting on game day, you can be a 50.1% coin flipper and expect to win at Matchbook.

        I really hope they get everything sorted out - they could dominate the market like no one else -- I already place about 75% of my bets at matchbook, and the rest are openers when there is no liquidity.

          At Matchbook you're limited only by the amount of liquidity available

            however, if the amount of liquidity is available to a high limit of 1000, 5,000 10,00, you will be able buy them all at a time or several times.

                FH only a C+ for safety at MB? I think they are a little better than that.

                  Matchbook

                  Do you bet baseball? If you don't have Matchbook, you're not winning.

                  5Dimes slashed my limits within a month of betting baseball there. Matchbook has no limits. The best lines by far are at Matchbook.

                      Never. I have been making constant withdraws for the last 3 years at Matchbook. Paid promptly everytime.

                      They have credit players and from what I gather they were stung pretty hard by a stiff. I read a post that people were going to be slow paid. This rumor was false as I made many withdraws and was paid fast as ever. Post-up players have always been paid quickly.

                        I never understood how Matchbook is owned by or under the umbrella of WSEX but people rave about Matchbook while WSEX has now fallen from grace and is now mired in a shitstorm. Can someone explain?

                                  Fisher A- for safety at the Greek? Everything I've heard about them is that they are safer than Bank of America to park cash.

                                  And matchbook A- for best odds. It seems to me they have the best odds most of the time, which makes them an A+. Just my opinion, fishead maybe you know something I don't

                                  Don't know enough to have an opinion on the other 2 ratings you gave.

                                    Don't ever put more than 10% of your Bankroll offshore. That's my rule, and I always break it.

                                      Meanwhile, BetPhoenix has multiple issues weekly that has been going on for months..............yet SBR continues to rank MB below BP in their ratings.

                                        As far as i can see liquidity on matchbook is much lower then on betfair. beside that betfair has over 200 markets per day while matchbook has 20 or max 50 markets. not to mention betfair has much more sports to over, including popular in america mlb,nba,wnba,mls, ncaa hoops and others.

                                            Would you guys recommend Matchbook for a rec bettor like me? I bet usually around $10-$20 (rarely more or less). And do they accept western union/moneygram because I can't use a credit card at the moment.

                                              I agree with most points except that premium fee on winners is bonk. Even if someone from the US happened to obtain a Betfair account (and was a winner) they also would get hit with premium charges + if they are honest pay US taxes on top of this = a huge chunk of profits.
