And you decide where to bet on a given game by comparing lines? I guess it's kind of obvious, I just want to make sure we're on the same page

I prefer to only bet at one place, easier to keep track etc, but once you start betting bigger, I guess every cent in line difference counts.

I use Matchbook and 5 Dimes

**Vgj** · 07-11-10, 06:58 PM

5dimes

From a friend that's been doing this for a while ... Dimes is the best and from my experience, I like it.

**valgan** · 07-14-10, 10:05 AM

i use betfair and pinnacle.

**jetsjets1028** · 07-14-10, 10:59 AM

none

**Paul Kersey** · 07-14-10, 03:18 PM

Spread it around, shop around

The consensus is basically right. 5Dimes, BoDog, The Greek etc.

But MORE IMPORTANT...JOIN AT LEAST TWO OR THREE BOOKS.

When will everybody understand this? You can shop around for that critical 1/2 point that makes the difference between winning & losing. Also..if you're afraid one book someday might go under at least you've spread your $ around. It's not all in one bank. Waiting for your money..the same principle.

1 short year....nothing is safe I wish all sites were legal and regulated and can be prosecuted for not paying.

**physed** · 07-14-10, 04:55 PM

**Konun8** · 07-14-10, 10:42 PM

Matchbook, BetJamaica, 5Dimes, SportsInteraction (if you like to bet dogs), BetPhoenix (generous free play reload bonuses, but I've been slow paid by them before), The Greek

**sdtrader** · 07-15-10, 11:53 AM

Matchbook has been great for me, and their payouts have always been on time.

**DBurton81** · 07-15-10, 04:25 PM

Spreading money around can be good but do not get crazy, somo books reward your play especially big dollars.

**csm506** · 07-16-10, 07:58 AM

Have you had a bad experience with FD or the Greek

**PacmanKnows** · 07-16-10, 08:55 AM

How do you rate Bet365 been using this for a while, and if not highly, what would be the benefits of changing to say 5Dimes?

**JDUB07** · 07-24-10, 05:53 PM

Yeah, 5 dimes parlaying options are great and have some really cool things you can do. I've unfortunately never cashed out from them though.

**Fishhead** · 07-24-10, 10:25 PM

5dimes
betjam/greek
Matchbook
Legends
Bookmaker
BetPhoenix

**Stumpage** · 07-24-10, 11:11 PM

Fish, from a non-American perspective I'd add Pinnacle and BetFair but overall I agree with your selections (Though I don't have the slightest bit of experience with Rebatewager.....)

For an American there are basically three books.

Matchbook
5Dimes
Betjamaica

Exactly! Why people go elsewhere is beyond me.
