Default Matchbook Sportsbook

Am thinking about making a deposit here. Decent variety of wagering opportunities for an exchange. I see their commissions rate is at 2%. Not bad at all. No fees for neteller withdrawals is also a big plus to me as I only use neteller for funding. Also read that their in partner/owned or overlooked by Wsex which never hurts. Their volume seems very very low. But then again they are a new exchange and Im sure that will change over time. Their odds are at cant beat prices for many events.

Response would be appreciated. Thanks

Antonio

I have been using them for about 6 weeks now.

Easy to use betting interface & very speedy returns to Neteller + the prices on offer are pretty good as well

Matchbook charges two percent of winnings whether you made or accepted an offer. Mansion charges one percent to offer acceptors, but has no fee for those who make offers and have them accepted. Mansion also has a lot more available at each price since they apprently seed their own exchange, at this point Matchbook is strictly for small players.

They did offer some during the U.S. Open.. not sure what their longer term strategy is..

Matchbook is ok for the dime player, and has MUCH tighter spreads than Mansion.. 8pt lines aren't unknown at Mansion lately.
