I would say they are a very good book for the average player.

One of the best. Fast and free payouts. Reduced vig. Weekly reload bonus.

They are alright. I give them a B rating. Other than Pinnacle
no one gets an A+

i don't forsee any problem using them for the average player, as mudcat stated above. although, i feel theres a few other books out there that are a little better IMO

Personally I love CanBet (SBR A-). IMHO they have a great selection of lines, good customer service, they're fast at paying out, they also have a nice little 10% reload bonus every Thursdaywhich kind of perks-up my bookkeeping figures at the end of each week.
My only reservation is that I believe they have some kind of an association with Australian sportsbook IASbet (SBR B). If they are one and the same company, you'd best be a little wary of IASbet as I had a slight problem (all sorted now) withdrawing some cash from there last week. Although polite, I think that they may be drinking too many tinnies of Fosters at lunch time!![]()

Yes, they are part of the InternationalAllSports family. I'm not sure what your problem was there but I consider that to be a plus. The acquisition of Canbet by IAS about a year ago seemed to have a big stabilizing effect on the op.Originally Posted by ourbet

I've heard nothing but good things about them, though I've yet to play there

Solid book, their CS is also very good, which is a huge plus in my book. Haven't played there in awhile, but they did have reduced -107 vig last time I played there.

My only gripe with Canbet is that you're unable to pound the soft lines since they seem to have a mechanism in place to limit their liability at a certain price. If you're only betting a few $s then this should never be a problem and you'll be able to get some nice prices.

Its a good out. Good CS, nice unique SW. I liked them better when they were competitors with IAS. Canbet kind of took over and replaced BetAustralia's -107 which was a nice reduced juice option as well.
