Help recommend me a book

[onthewhat]

I'm a very casual sports bettor, I make just a few bets a month, and I had been playing on Sportsbook.com. After it was taking forever on a cashout, I googled some stuff and ended up at this site and quickly realized I shouldn't be playing with them.

With that said, I'm looking for a new book. The main qualities I'm looking for are free cashouts and not having to fax information to them. If it matters, even though I only bet a little bit a month, my average bet is usually around $500, so if that matters I'm throwing it out there. Also, decent payment processing time would be nice, but as long as it's a respected site I don't really have a problem with waiting a few weeks to get paid.

Thanks in advance if anyone can help me out.

BetJamaica, part of the TheGreek family of books and use the ASI software, which I feel is pretty nice overall.

BetJamaica (SBR Rated A+) is more of a recreation book and does offer nice reload bonuses (10 or 20% reup bonuses/$500 max, with a 4x's rollover), however since they are a recreational book they could cut your limits if your chasing steam and or other things of that nature.

Their banking options for U.S. players have actually improved some over the last few months, because they are now offering Echecks (which is very nice feature these days, but info required to be faxed). Not to mention they do free book-to-book transfers ($500 min) with: TheGreek, Legendz, Pinnacle, 5Dimes and BookMaker and soon Wsex (note: Bookmaker will charge you incoming fees).

The payouts are very prompt really for overnight checks (3-5 business days), and the withdraw fees are actually quite reasonable if you exceed the 1 free payout via fedex per calender month (min. $200/$35 flat fee if you exceed the freebie).

Another thing I should make mention of since we have seen some DDos attacks this weekend is that they have a couple of mirror sites for emergency purposes.

They also are now offering an online chat service which is always a nice feature

The lines they offer are very competitive with most other books IMO, and the use a dimeline up to -190 in baseball. Which I feel is great!

.13 up to -195
.15 up to -200
.18 up to -205

.30 up to -280
.35 up to -290
.40 up to -300
.45 up to -310
.50 up to -320


Overnight Lines: Yes
Reverse Run Lines: Yes

The drawbacks I do have about [iSBRFORUM]BetJamaica[/iSBRFORUM] is they only accept U.S. currencies
