    If safety is your only criteria then probably one of the big UK ones like Will Hill or Ladbrokes. They dont offer much else apart from safety though.

    Most of the UK bookmakers are safe because of the English law that is very strict. It is the same with brokerage firms. For example in case of bankruptcy, clients funds are protected by law. It can't get better than that

    I actually meant "most of the English based bookmakers". I don't know for sure if it's the same for other UK bookmakers that are not based in England.

    No.

    In terms of safety for US players, the SBR A+ rated sites are the ones to go for.

    Certainly they work to high juice but they do frequently enough have the best odds to make it well worthwhile maintaining an account. I do place quite a few tennis bets there and I can always get set for more than with any of the other Aussie books. And this morning I even found an NFL bet at better than Pinnacle and Matchbook were offering.

    They also have a rewards program which I find tips a $100 cash bonus into my account on a regular basis.

    Be very careful with INTERTOPS. Compared with Pinnacle, Bet365 and some of the other larger Sportsbooks my experience with Intertops has been awful. Seem to make up the rules for payouts as it suits them on the day. And if you win they'll restrict your bets to a maximum of $5. What a joke!

    Agreed, TAB Sportsbet is one of the safest. Pinnacle has great oddds and prompt payouts and is by far the best all round Sportsbook I've used.
