    Pending on your method of deposit preferences I would probably recommend you to checkout BetJamaica (SBR Rated A+). The reason I mention BetJamaica is because they offer many good funding methods for U.S. player and currently have no outstanding complaints or processing issues to report at this time. Not to mention they do offer the book-to-book transfer option (with 4x's rollover) if there is a need for it.

    Another top tier book you might want to take a look at is BetOnline (SBR rated A-). BOL currently have no complaints levied against them and no processing issues to speak of at this time, which is a positive these days. The limits are $2,000 (Sides & Totals) which isn't bad at all really, however they will collar you if you start to beat'um up at a pretty good rate.

              ThePig (SBR Rated A) will use -108 vig opposed to the -110 vig both BetJam and BOL use (pending on the BOL package you pick). Not to mention they offer a 10% signup bonus for U.S. players, but if you sign up on either a Tues or Wed. you will receive an extra 5% (cash bonus/5x's rollover)

              The area I feel ThePig needs to improve on is their payment solutions for depositing for U.S. players. Currently they only offer Western Union, Moneygram, and Cashier checks. (The do take Moneybookers & Neteller for those who can use it, not to mention higher bonus offerings with a 7x rollover). However, both books process their payouts very promptly that offer 1 free check every calender month (flat $55 fee I believe) and takes 3-4 days fedex to get it (same time as BetJam but not BOL who can take up to 10 business days)

                  BetJam is pretty good...especially if you buy one of those ******** Visas..yeah they are 10 bucks but it makes for loading into your account about as easy as can be.....

                        does betjam make you call to confirm all your bets or something? I read their house rules and I thought that's what I read. Second question lol, do they actually check to see if you're 21? Like drivers license or whatever

                          I understand why bbd is promoting these certain books, but everyone else telling him to go to the greek what the **** are you smoking? You want him to bet into 40 cent lines? Matchbook is the best place to bet people.

                            Pat,

                            Matchbook has had processing delays as well as some downtime lately. None of the books I've mentioned above has had experiences with issues of that nature recently.

                              Matchbook seems like my best bet. Age limit is 18 and I don't have to put a lot of money in there. I've heard ******** cards work so I guess I'll get a $25 one and try Matchbook out

                                  They don't make you call and confirm you bets...at least they never have made me...that would be a horrible business model. Not that I am under 21 but they didn't check to see if I was under 21. As far as I seen as long as you have one of those ******** cards you can withdraw and deposit all you want with it and there really aren't many hassles...

                                    thanks man, not sure what book I should go to. Guess I'll stay land based for now. Either Matchbook or BetJam for me.
