All I can say is...

WTF???

Sportsbook.com at #14 and 5 Dimes/Bet Jamaica (just to name a couple) don't even make the list?

Have you been drinking today Coach? I know it is your day off so I will cut you some slack.

[jjgold]

These are not listed by rank

5 dimes is good, greek is the same as Jamaiica

5 Dimes is a much better book than many of those listed in my opinion.

Bet Jamaica is ONLY financially backed by Olympic. They are a completely seperate business and completely different operation in all other areas. Bet Jamaica is going to be coming out with a horse betting system you are going to die for Coach. You will need to get money there once it goes live. I will be testing out the beta and report back to you.

In my opinion, Bet Jamaica is a top 5 book and could be moving even higher when Scotty gets his poker and horses up.

JJ: Yesterday u said sportsbook.com was an average book with 1976 software...here u have them rated #14 out of thousands of books?

And yes Greek and Jamica are owned by the same people...but if u look at their baseball lines, there is quite a bit of differecne.

5dimes should make the list b/c of all the things u bet on..it's a no brainer. You can bet Mexican League Baseball...5dimes has to be on that list somewhere.

I like Betjm a lot...still trying to get a hat from there. Maybe Bill Dozer can help me out

If he can't, I'll hook you up BuddyBear. I'll see if I can't grab you some other stuff from them as well.

[kdmfox]

jj ... Bodog is not on there? ... Easily the most user friendly site around ... Good bonuses, and reliable customer service ... I tried VIP for a short while ... Prehistoric website ... I'm still laughing about their VIP reward program ... No bonus when funding by instant check ... The Fox

[jjgold]

Bo Dog is fine, wager web too

I put some euro books on at end to take those slots

these are not in ranking order

[Terris]

i was thinking that they are in ranking order, cause i guess pinny would be on top of almost everybodys list (if hes a Pro at least) :P

[Mudcat]

That's a weird list. I wouldn't know where to start analyzing that.

But focusing on the positive, I agree that Pinnacle is #1 !!

[jjgold]

Mudcat it is one of best lists and dont forget to add bo dog, wager web and legendz

[square]

J,

I can see it's not your 1st rodeo cowboy.

For me to see one of my very best, most enjoyable ,long time, great out's Delmar in there really speaks volumns as to who you are buddy.

Fire Away!

[pags11]

where's fivedimes on this list jjgold? and I wouldn't have sportsbook.com on it, personally...good job though...

[Illusion]

BoDog and 5Dimes should be added. Sportsbook.com??? Must have been a typo.

[jjgold]

Bo Dog and Wager Web are included in my top books worlwide. I just forgot to put them in.

[Fishhead]

How many of these have you actually played at?

1. One?
2. Two?
3. None?
4. Three or more?

[Mudcat]

I'm not sure how seriously people would take this list but I feel I should point out that people need to watch out for those last 5. I frequently hear of people around here looking for reduced juice books; well unless you're in the market for very high juice books, you won't want them.

They are very bad for North American sports. They will have better coverage of some international sports - but with very high juice.

[SBR_John]

Ranking books is not easy to nail. JJ's list is good although Sportsbook.com is a bit out of place in there. I think you have to have BetFair in there.

[square]

Nice point catfish, very true buddy.

[jjgold]

Sportsbook.com is a lousy book but they have a ton of customers and a ton of money so I had to put them on.

I mean who would replace them???

[Bill Dozer]

I doubt we would see Gamebookers and Sportsbook on many Top 25s but thats the point of looking at different opinions.

It would be great if every poster had a top 25 list or even a much shorter list from those who haven't been around the block as many times. Maybe thats something we can add to the forum profiles.

[Bill Dozer]

Sportsbook.com is a lousy book but they have a ton of customers and a ton of money so I had to put them on.

I mean who would replace them???

If you are ranking books by volume, probably no one. By the level service....there are quite a few choices.

[jjgold]

Gamebookers is a real powerhouse as far as Euro betting so they had to be on the list

They probably havel triple the customer base as a Greek or Pinny

[moses millsap]

These are the books I've used and the grade I'd give them:

Pinnacle A+
WSEX A
Hollywood A-
DSI B+
5dimes A-
Bet365 B-
BoDog B-
Sportsbook D
WWTS B
Canbet B+
Intertops C
V-Wager C-

Might be forgetting some...

[jjgold]

Not a bad list

Never played at DSI or V-Wager

V-Wager was years ago, DSI isn't bad, good variety, prompt payouts.

[why]

Pinnacle overall is the best book in the world but far from perfect. They are not good for "small dollar amount" players, especially if you don't withdrawal over 500/time. Their CS is shit, absolute crap, in fact down right insulting. How good are they even with that said, I always have an account there, lol. What are you going to do?

[pags11]

have to agree that pinnacle is the best all-around book...

[jjgold]

Greek not far behind though

[Terris]

hmm, i cant agree with "pinnacles customer service is pure crap". Sure, they dont have phone numbers and stuff, but hey thats why i play over the net - i dont need that, and the average email is answered in a few minutes.

[ItchyHooHoo]

Bump

[crisp]

wow alot are long gone

[20Four7]

And a lot on that list went Stiff WWTS and Cascade come to mind.....

[Brock Landers]

Pinnacle was just , that book was an example of how a book should be ran
