One that is not considered under SBR as an A book that is really good is youwager.com

They have fast payouts.

You request a payout Sunday night you will have it at your door on Tues morning. Fed ex delivery. They also give you free plays on certain holidays if you have 300 or more in account.

! free payout per month.

I can't argue that Youwager does all those things that Mike has mention, however here are a couple of things he has failed to say.

#1. The cold call you constantly.
#2. They have a 60 day hold on your funds

I would recommend either BetJamaica or 5Dimes depending on your needs. However, if you more of a professional type player I would highly recommend Matchbook.

The girl who used to work there is gone the cold calls have slowed down a lot.

60 day hold is only for bonuses and up front money if you get a bonus. Otherwise that does not apply.

Also you may cash out anything above and beyond your deposit and half of bonus.

Example you send a dime they give you 300 you may cash out the very next day anything over , 1150. So you hit you can collect your winnings.

They only ask you to waite one week if you don't want to lose your MG deposit they give u.

Just for info.

I honestly have collected close to 20 dimes since football playoffs.

Default just for clarification on both parts

Youwager.com » Help » Fees Regulations
FREE PAYOUTS!

You now have the opportunity to get free payouts* at youwager.com!

Funds must be kept in your account for 60 days from your last deposit, with no payouts within that period.

The requirements for the free payout are as follows:
A. The customer must have no payouts in the previous 60 days.
B. Account must be active 8 consecutive weeks up to the payout.

Questions? Call customer service now at 1-800-You-Wager (800-968-9243), option 2, for the deposit method options.

*This new program is effective as of July 1st. There are no free payouts on reversals.


Fees Regulations

Your deposit plus the value of the fee we paid for your incoming transaction must be left in the account until the rollover is met, anything above that can be withdrawn. If the rollover is not met, the fee will be reversed.

Rollover Policy

7 days and 3 x

You can withdraw your winnings at anytime.

Your deposit plus half the value of the free play must be left in the account until the rollover is met, anything above that can be withdrawn. If the rollover is not met, the bonus will be reversed.

Example:

Deposit + Fees
7 Days
3x Rollover
Minimum Balance

$1000 + $80
Before
With
$1,080

$1000 + $80
After
Without
$1,080

$1000 + $80
After
With
$0



As you can see on the chart above once you met the 3X rollover and your money has been in the account more than 7 days. You can withdraw everything.

No problem not telling you were to play, you asked and I thought I would share. They paid me quick.

It all boils down to how much you bet a game and how long you plan on playing.



It 's kinda like church there is no perfect one nor is there a perfect sportsbook!

Whats weird with all of them is they never whant to fund back the money WU or MG without charging more than u paid to send it not sure why they do that. I guess they want to hold on to the money as long as they can.
