    Which 5 Books?
    Just found you guys after almost 10 years out of sports betting. Looking to get back into this and am looking to open accounts at about 5 different books. I'm looking for suggestions. I have ALREADY opened one at bookmaker.eu and looking for a few others. They should obviously be reliable (reasonably prompt payouts when requested) and, there should hopefully be one or two with occasionally looser lines than the norm.

    Any thoughts?

    Thanks in advance to all.

      Well I called Heritage and they said they couldn't open an account for me unless I had an invite. How do I get an invite?

      And, Pinnacle excludes US citizens. And, as mentioned, I already have an account with Bookmaker, so, that leaves only 5Dimes and BetIslands. So, the poll at the top helps, but only slightly, really.

      Any other books that you guys would recommend? I will be opening an account at 5Dimes tomorrow and will also call BetIslands, but, was looking for some other options.

      Is SportsInteraction a good solid book? They see to have slightly looser lines.

      Also made the mistake of opening an account at Bodog (before reading some of the horror stories on here...before finding you guys) and funded with $500. Hopefully I won't have to kiss those $500 goodbye.

          Just bet if your looking for ATS/Totals on US sports at under $500 a game
          some will disagree
          but they are a good book
          call and ask Scott Carter

          plus 5 Dimes,bet islands.Legends you should be set

            Pretty much the top says it all....5 Dimes, Bet Islands, Legends (Yes vanilla as everyone says but I've had good luck) and you have Bookmaker. If you need 5 find a way to Heritage. If you can't, don't lose sleep, you have 4 good safe books.

                  Vegasvic...-105...no free pay outs,but the best betting selection.Money lines on almost all games
                  5 dimes...great betting options,free pay outs on Monday(3 hour period I believe)bad customer service
                  Legendz....Vanilla book,great customer service.Good lines on dogs at times.$55 for a pay out hurts.

                      5dimes has many betting options, as i heard is safe book and they will pay you. Customer service was helpful for me.

                      but they will limit you to small bets

                        Sportsinteraction I don't believe is accepting US Players anymore. I would recommend 5dimes, betislands, rebatewager, and Justbet. Hopefully SBR can give us feedback on lowvig.com soon. Hopefully they will be a good out.

                          Considering BetDSI but, I just read that they are part of the bookmaker.eu family. I have an account with bookmaker already. Is there a point to opening an accoung with DSI as well?

                              Bovada - Keep it small here but solid for some off market prices.

                              That's the four must have combo. From here JustBet, YouWager, Legends decent for for bonus whoring, Rebate Wager for rebates.

                              Also keep a bet or two at BetMania (another place to keep it light), and maybe take small bonuses from BetOnline (though I trust them by FAR the least of any SBR recommended book and it's not even close). When sites like JustBet cut you off from constant reload bonuses, hitup the lower tier books with big bonuses Americasbookie, SBGGlobal etc. while knowing is a small chance of not getting paid, but worth the gamble in many spots.
