Starting at a new shop

**djefferis** · 10-19-11, 11:53 AM

Betislands-solid startup, good selection, high limits and a lot of industry experience. Works out of Jazz building, but seperate owner-management. Lack of b2b is only downside I see over the big boys.

Carib-small limits, old school bookmaker. Ok place until you win big, lack of deposit options and juice hurts them. Better than 90 percent of books avail to usa.

Heritage-nice shop, free payouts and improved selection since adding betjm. Always good cs, has slipped in my opin. But they are better than almost any option. Won't limit winners unless your betting 2-5k a game. Keep it under the radar and you are fine.

Also check out 5dimes, BetOnline and bookmaker-dsi.

Thanks djeffreris,

Have BM and 5D in my pocket already. Heard Heritage was limiting winners after a certain threshold. That's why I need to disperse across multiple shops. Thanks formhe feedback. BOL I wouldn't touch, looks like a pretty bad rough patch the're having right now.

Bookmaker, 5dimes, and Betislands could not think of three better books to be posted up with if you are a US player!

Always nervous about startups, but since not many (any) bad things have been said about this place, I'm gonna give bet islands the nod over heritage and Carib. Thanks for the input edawg.

Heritage is not an option for you anyway, as you need an invite.

Below are a few books that I feel comfortable recommending to you to play at and while your at it earn some extra rewards by becoming an SBRpro.

5Dimes (SBR Rated A+) is the flagship of the 5Dimes family of books and offers a wide selection of wagering options as well has some of the other things you are seeking.

Bookmaker (SBR Rated A+) is part of the Cris family of books and caters to both the professional and recreational players and also offers a wide selection of wagering options.

Bodog (SBR Rated A) is part of the Morris Mohawk Gaming Group and caters to the recreational players. If you're a dog better then Bodog is definitely a book you might want to check out.

BetIslands (SBR Rated B-) is independently owned and operated and run out of the jazz facilities in San Jose, Costa Rica. The use the DGS software and just recently added mobile gaming to their platform. Even though BetIslands is a rather new book it is run by a very well respected man within the industry for many years who has deep pockets and is always gracing his presence on the SBRforum to make sure his clients are being treated fairly by his staff.

All the books I've mentioned above are currently in good standing.

Heritage IS an option for me, I received an invite and played with the free $500 credit they gave me a year ago but have never posted up there, but thanks.
