    Default what are the reliable sportsbooks right now

    sorry guys, i didnt make the subject specific enough so here we go again...

    Hey guys, i need your advice about the most reliable sportsbooks on the internet because i always hear of a good one, and then i find out that it has a lot of payout problems from other users on the internet. i find a good one and then hear one bad payout story and get paranoid that its not gonna work for me haha

    right now im looking at using bookmaker or diamond because i heard 5Dimes is not good right now.

    I just wanna know what u guys think is the most reliable because i really wanna make some money so let me know.

    5dimes is always good. IMO, 5dimes is better than bookmaker & diamondsports. And matchbook is your best choice.

    if you are US player, go for matchbook. If you are a Non-US player, then go for Pinnacle..

    5dimes is not good, 5dimes is the best, if you are there, stay, if you aren't get there

    matchbook is great for single plays, but nobody beats 5dimes parlays teasers and total variety

    Hi RaginCajun,

    Welcome to SBRforum, and thanks for posting your question!

    Bookmaker, DSI, or 5Dimes can be excellent choices based on what you're looking for. Might I suggest using this sportsbook selector tool to fill out your preferences and see a list of potentially good choices? The recommended list is also another place to read detailed breakdowns of each shop.

    As for your comment about 5Dimes, can you mention specifically what you had heard? 5Dimes recently won our May Poster's Poll of favorite sportsbooks, and generally ranks among the top of poster feedback as far as payout speed.

    For an American there are basically three books.

    Matchbook
    5Dimes
    Betjamaica

    I like that list but I would go:

    1) Greek (no comparison)
    2) Matchbook
    3) 5Dimes

    These 3 have less juice, and pay-out the fastest for Americano's. I wouldn't touch Bookmaker for bases.

    If you are outside USA all you need is pinnaclesports.

    If you are in USA:

    thegreek, boomaker (if you are a big player)

    5dimes and betjamaica (if you are a small to average player)

    Avoid all other books if you are a long term +ev bettor.

    If you are a -ev bettor, it doesn't matter where you play.

    If you're going to throw out stuff like you heard 5dimes isn't good or are having problems, please post what you have heard (in detail) or otherwise its pointless to even post on the topic.

    IMO 5dimes is one of the best for reduced juice and payouts for American players.

    5Dimes is the best book for bases for US players, better than Matchbook. I'd also like to know what's "not good" with them.

    Thanks for the help guys. I might go with 5dimes. What do y'all like about it compared to other books. By the way I'm an American player.

    5dimes is the best for americans. BetJam is good also.

    Thinking of trying Legends, that 100% sign-up bonus is enticing!

    Tarheel fan. Can't someone just ask a few questions to get acquainted with the books out there. I've never used either so don't jump to conclusions. Maybe I wanted some insight into the popular books. U should have posted if u didn't want to waste ur time

    Anyone who does not have Greek and Bookmaker are missing a bunch of +EV. Where else do you get the lines when they come out or halftimes before the 1st half ends? Ill happily pay -110 for early half time lines. I could beat -120 before they move.

    So is Pinnacle really the number one book for European players? I'm mostly interested in soccer and tennis, though a friend of mine keeps insisting i try NBA and MLB as well.

    I know they get alot of crap here but I like Betphoenix, great bonuses and their lines are better than most. I haven't had any problems with them and I have been playing there for 1 year.

    exactly how are you going to get yourself into a position to where you can cash out. if you deposit 200 and run it up to say 600 why don't you just leave it in there for football season. none of theses books like people that actually try to cash out so they make it a little difficult. i want to know how you are actually going to win since i don't know of anyone who actually does.
