    What is the best book for the World Cup?
    I have active accounts with both BetHorizon and 5 dimes at this time.. But I'm looking for a few books just for the World Cup. i really figured 5Dimes would be the best bet, but at this time, the options are limited.

    The Greek have a good # size of props and futures, so thats good.. but I really doubt that they are the best for the WC, though i will put some money in there for it.

    What are some other books with the most props for the WC? Have to be available to americans...


    Thank you

    In regards to lots of options I would try to look for a bookie that is more oriented to the sport, so you would have to go with australian, asian or european. If you are in the US that could of course be a problem, but I didn't see the US flag ban in the ratings guide for Totesport or Nordicbet.

    However if you are just interested in betting on who would win the match and maybe some handicaps, then 5Dimes is decent enough.

        If you are into AH betting, then SBO and 188Bet are the best specialist books

                    If your looking at Outright winner bets.

                    Then Stan James has an offer that they will refund all Outright bets If Spain win the World cup.

                    Also Skybet has an offer to refund all Outright bets if England win the world Cup.

                    So you could bet two other Likely winners with each of the above books & get your cash back if one of the above win

                      Good info. I like the variety of bets William Hill has, but no americans though.

                            They never have many betting options for soccer... just the simple bets and they usually dont even have halftime bets.

                                  Has anyone here played extensively with intertops??

                                  I was looking at there website, and they definitely have the most future bets... including betting on the top goalscorer for each country. The problem is... I'm pretty sure they have very low limits.

                                    Just looked at this... the big problem i have is with betphoenix being so high. The listed limits would be fine, except the second you show ANY signs of knowing what your doing in soccer, they limit you so quick.

                                    It took one whole bet for me to get my limits shut to virtually nothing in soccer

                                    I won 2000+ on Lyon in the Champions League quaterfinals.. next thing I know, they limit all my soccer bets to 100 dollars.

                                    It isn't like I won 2000 on some 3rd level Singapore or something... I won it in the 2nd biggest soccer stage there is this year, and they all of a sudden label me as sharp and tell me Americans shouldn't be winning that much in soccer...WTF?

                                    I'm pretty sure if you show any intelligence come June 11th, the same thing will happen to everyone.

                                      Parlaymakers has pretty much everything Pinnacle has for wagering and at the same lines so it would be a good choice for World Cup action. Limits are $250.

                                        I had an account there .. for about a fortnight ... then sacked them for absurdly low limits imposed after a handful of bets

                                                Intertops has rather high vig on their 3 way soccer lines and totals.

                                                      All american books are great for the world cup because they are all stupid in soccer

                                                        It isn't exactly difficult to clone lines, plus the vig on soccer at some of these books is ridiculous. I've seen plenty of American books with a 40 cent line on totals and a 13% hold on 3 way lines. Good luck beating those lines even at a slow moving, stupid book.
