Default Some Advice on choosing which bookies

Hi
I am new to the forums and simply looking to get some advice. I am looking for a good, reliable, and trustworthy gambling site that offers Asian handicap lines for premier league games and champions league games. Since I am from U.S, I also need the site that allows us players to gamble. Thanks in advance.

First off, Welcome to the SBR forum

Living in the states sucks when wagering on soccer because their a many of books that won't accept U.S. players. However, you might want to checkout 12bet. I don't remember reading about any U.S.A. player restrictions at that establishment.

No 12bet from within the US, Danny.

Thanks for clarifying things about 12bet, RJ. I didn't remember reading of any restrictions, otherwise I would have never mentioned them in the first place.

Betphoenix would be a good out, you get 10c on the big leagues there. Not quite as good as 12bet/sbo or pinnacle, but probably better than anybody else.

188bet or mansion88 also perhaps? Dunno about whether they're open to US players.

Welcome to Sportsbookreview, limitation.

Also, adding to the advice for new readers, look for these criteria when joining an on line sports book. I found the list on the internet somewhere 5 years ago, February 29th and saved it for future reference.

1. Financial stability
2. Time in business
3. Customer service
4. Hours of operation
5. Variety of bets
6. Low vigorish
7. Quick payouts
8. Toll-free phone support
9. Ease of use
10.Reputation

Best of luck

I think most asianbooks do not accept accept US-based players for some reason. Our friends from that side will have to find their way of getting into these books if they want to experience good lines.. lolz

Greek (great C/S, strong financially)
BetJam (sister book of Greek, and ditto, 10c lines on football on Friday nights)
WSEX (good option, esp for baseball and tennis)
Bookmaker (good option, though do not use much)
BetPhoenix (nice low juice book, use quite a bit after getting reduced at 5 dimes)
5 Dimes (usually a plethora of betting options but do not like sharps)

Matchbook (this is an exchange, but necessary to reduce your juice particularly in ML sports such as baseball, hockey and tennis). Some of the above books are trying to take 40 cent rips in tennis.

Most specificially for your leagues, the Greek, Phoenix and 5 Dimes would work the best.

I use BET365 for soccer. Hands down best book for soccer. However, don't accept US customers.

Bwin? Try them.

I respectfully disagree with your Bet365 comments sir. They will limit players extremely fast if they show any type of promise. Also, Bwin falls under that same criteria as Bet365.

lolz BBD. But you have a point. BET365 is a good book and also good in eyeing their members performance. haha! sure they don't want to lose a lot of money to those people who knows how to bet.. lolz!

Well, it will be hard for our friend here who wanted to play AH if cannot find a reputable asian book that accepts US-based customers..

Dude! It will be hard for you to get a book with AH if you are in the US since as far as my experience goes, these books does not accept US customers. You can just browse their sites but won't be able to register..
