Their volume is pretty good from a liquidity standpoint in regards to American sports. Then again Tradesports is really the closest thing I can base that to as far as from an exchange point.

Liquidity is fine, no better place for an American.

Like Robzilla said Matchbook is #1.

If you want to bet props and moneylines then they might not be the best for you but as far as pointspreads they are the best thing going on.

I haven't used Tradesports since July when they announced they would be raising their commission fees. Although, I would rank Tradesports #2 as far as being the best exchange for U.S. players.

Their liquidity is Ok, but Matchbook is better. I mean they do book-to-book transfers with Matchbook and Betonline which does help. However, Tradesports charges 4% commission opposed to the 2% Matchbook offers.

As far as them paying their players go. I know of no outstanding slow pay/no pays levied against them at all. They always have paid me promptly and offer two free withdraws per month.


I personally feel that TradeSports screwed up in a big way. Because they blew a golden opportunity to corner the U.S. exchange market, and didn't. If their management structure at the time would have been on the ball at all, they would have never allowed Matchbook to come and take over like they did.

Matchbook is an excellent sportsbook. Always getting lower juice than anywhere else. Especially on moneylines.

Good book but because of the instability of the USD not a good option for european bettors as long as they don't offer other currencies than USD.

Liquidity is fantastic. I can get down in any amounts I want.

Cashed out over 10K after college football season ended and received my first check within 48 hours. They do break up checks for any amount over 3K, but they only charge you the Fed Ex fee one time.

I could not be happier with this shop.

You gotta love the fact that they won't put any type of collar on you at all.
