Default Is thegreek.com a good sportsbook?

I've played at many sportsbooks, is thegreek any good? Are there payouts fast?

I'm new to sportsbooks but my early impressions are that I would reccomend them. I had made a very crucial error in some account information, I let them know and they responded to me within 20 minutes by email. Some of their software I can live without but my wagers are updated very fast, win or lose. I'm sure some of the other players who have been doing this forever can go in more depth on this. They get an A from me.

payouts are fast, but they required a copy of my DL and a utility bill to cash out. Plus $35. Then they told me I need to scan my ID again because I taped my DL# off. They wanted it on "for additional security purposes" I basically told them to get bent and said that their cs was worse than sportsbook.com's. I got an apology and my request was processed without any further action.

TheGreek is a top tier book in all fashions of the term and well deserving of that of that respect IMO.

They offer some very good wagering options on prop bets, and cater more to the professional type players. Their deposit methods for U.S. players these days are Western Union, MoneyGram, and Cashiers checks. As far as the withdraws go, They offer a flat $35 fee for Fedex checks which will show up at your door most times between 2-3 days (Saturday delivery requests are $10 more).

Try searching before starting new threads!

The Greek is the best I have used, overall. Definetly the most variety in regards to exotics

They are at the top of the short list of the best books.

It's all -110, but you will not have an issue there regarding anything at all. They post lines either first, or shortly after cris or pinnacle.

Everything said here is true, but lets not go overboard. Greek will collar internet sharps. Pinny and Cris don't do it. (ok, Cris will collar internet 1H play)
