Gonna open a new account with one of these books for football season. Currently using BetPhoenix. Any insight would be great as I am not sure what the main differences are.

All three are solid and among the top outs to have.
Bookmaker has opening/early lines. Large limits and variety also. Some perks like betpoints, etc. and some free play offers when depositing.
Bet Jamaica has reduced -105 juice on Fridays during football. Some good bonuses for signup and reloads, but they won't last if you are a big player on the plus side. Limits are usually low early in the week.
5Dimes has reduced -105 juice throughout the week - $500 max initially but it's been lowered for quite a few. Lots of variety.Comment -
A good buddy of mine is with BetJam and they have the debit card that you can use to withdraw with. I like that concept.Comment -
BET JM Great customer service, Fast payouts. every time I requested a check payout before noon, fed ex was at my house the next day at around 930 am. They are also cool with bonuses and rollovers. If you don't do the full rollover they just deduct the bonus from your account and give you all of your winning if you want to withdraw.
Bookmaker: Payouts take a little longer, customer service is so/so compared to Bet JM. But they do have more betting options then bet JM and the lines you see will come out early. At JM sometimes Saturday college totals and Lines do not come out until Saturday. At Bookmaker you can jump on a early line if you want. One bad thing is they will just keep calling you to load your account if you have zero in it. A few calls for Hoops, but insane amount of calls for football.
5dimes:They are fast with withdraws after you make your first one. Customer Service is nice. The big plus with 5 dimes is that they offer the most betting options then any of the other books. In fact I have used many of the books out there and I have not seen that many betting options at any of them. You can bet team totals and a bunch of other shit. Its a good time.
The ultimate book would be 5 dimes wagering menu and options, with Bet JM's Customer Service and payouts, and bookmakers points store so you can get rewards like electronics and gift cards for staying loyal. lol its only a dream but maybe one day this book will come to life. Anyway I hope this helpsComment -
Which has the best live in game betting?Comment -
Greek, BetFair or Pinny are best in the industry, although I do use BetJam and BookMaker every now and then.
Greek: Other than .20 cent lines, this book is a beauty.
BetFair: Like any other exchange, you can get wicked good lines/prices but it doesn't have all the options you want.
Pinny: Hard to say anything bad here; early lines, low juice, every sport, huge limits, so many options, fast/free withdrawals. This book receives 85% of my action.
BetJam: Easy to use, middle-ground book, nothing fancy but very solid.
BookMaker: Very professional, nice clean looking site, good support. Great book.
Some books that may fly under the radar:
SportsInteraction (If you don't bet/win a lot, this book is perfect. I've basically outgrown it but I'll use it every now and then.)
WagerChief (Free half point, excellent bonuses, great support, reliable, if you call them and get to know them, they'll help you out with bigger limits, faster payouts, etc.)
BetMania (Easy to use, reliable, good service, free half point on certain sports, -107 juice)Last edited by dj_destroyer; 08-19-10, 02:55 PM.Comment -
good stuffComment -
BM has awful customer service and super-slow payouts compared to other solid books. I put in a request Monday, got email saying they'd review it in 1-2 days and then send the money, haven't heard anything since then. Waiting a week for some supervisor there to 'okay' the withdrawal is ridiculous.Comment -
bet jam is bye far the best!Comment -
wow different opinions as usual, but 5dimes' reduced juice beat'em allComment -
5 dimes good in game betting bet auburntoday down 14, and 21. Auburn made a great comeback today. Alabama is still a good football team. Next year Alamaba can go undeafeatedComment -
