Who is the best overall online SB?
-
10-26-10 05:28 PM #2
BetFair is overall the best
Widest range of markets, and odds at least competitive (after commission) with any other book
Can place orders at desired odds to be matched later
Can place lay bets
Limited only by available liquidity
Prompt fee free withdrawals

You're going to get a wide variety of answers. It's like asking what people like better, McDonalds or Burger king. So many people like different options it's tough to say which is the best.
You might want to give us a post listing the things YOU would like in a book and I'm sure a few of us will throw some suggestions at you.

I bet most NFL, NCAA, and MLB, so the best lines on those are important. Free payouts are nice, credit card deposits are a must, good customer service a plus. Things like that.

well that does change things quite a bit

I use Moneybookers rather than ************ and withdrawals are fast and free

Take it from an old pro!
There is NO competition for the #1 spot.
And, that Book is Matchbook!
Bargain's galore from Matchy.
Number 2, just might be BetPhoenix? And, I say, forget the bad publicity about BetPhoenix, unless it has been proven, or BP admit's a mistake?
I see they get slammed on this forum time after time. My guess on that would be, "hell has no fury like a bettor who loses his arse?"
And, who else will offer you a 5c line besides BP?
Number 3 is up for grabs between several Books!

Id say 5dimes...
Never had a problem with them, a lot of options for betting, and very good payout options too. Live bets and prop bets are very nice too.

Matchbook and 5 dimes. Can usually find the best prices at Matchbook. 5 dimes covers you with the bets that Matchbook doesn't have. More variety. ************ will be a problem.
-

In order in my opinion
Pinnacle
Matchbook
The GREEK
Heritage
Betjam
5dimes
Cant go wrong with any of the above.
-

Matchbook - if I could only have one, this would be it.
-
10-26-10 11:59 PM #11
5 Dimes yo. Reduced juice, fast payouts, props, quarter and halftime bets, etc.
-
10-27-10 02:05 AM #12
1) Matchbook - If you just place straight wagers, the best by far.
2) The Greek - best website, props, fast payouts, good customer service, secure, etc...
Debit/Credit card deposits may or may not go through at either one, depends on the card.

Betfair is not good for straight betting because of Premium Charge thing. I suggest BF for traders/scalpers. But if you're a soccer bettor, it's always good to have.
Top 7
Pinnacle (Not available for US citiziens)
TheGreek
Matchbook
5Dimes
Bookmaker
Betjamaica
Betfair (Not available for US citiziens)

The only disadvantage about 5dimes is, they open Reduced Juice lines a little bit late! It's 7 AM in the morning and I can't use Reduced Juice!! Originally Posted by Roy Halladay

you carry on about Betfair's premium charge but the only thing you can say against 5D is lateness of reduced juice?!!! Originally Posted by Sawyer

no such problems at Betfair
want reduced juice? ... go to Betfair or Matchbook or even Pinnacle

5-Dimes has it all if you play $500 or less. Ironic that their name implies 10x more--I guess everyone exaggerates on the internet. They should change their name to 1-Nickel.

seems reasonably appropriate .. a bit like Bet$3.65

Wish I had a nickel for everyone of these threads asking the same question over and over....should try searching the existing threads instead of making yet another one asking this question.

Well, I'm American so that retricts me some, and I also only have access to a **, I have been trying for 7 hours, and not a single Sportsbook will take it, and ** and ** both flagged me. So I'm more or less FUC*ED
-
10-27-10 02:59 PM #22
How did you get flagged by both ** and **?
-
10-27-10 03:02 PM #23
You need several. That's the only way to cover all bases. Do the research and build your own 'superbook', by selecting the options that you want. Others can't answer that question for you.
