preferred sportsbook?
 

What is your favorite online sportsbook? I was wondering because I might someday deposit onto a site and was wondering what site is the best? I also know some prefer to go thru a bookie since its too easy to bet online lol.

I'm using SIA right now it seems alright.

i've heard horror stories about all of them, but i'm using MVP (albeit i rarely bet on sports)

I have been a happy customer since 1996. That's an eternity in internet time.

Intertops and William Hill

It's good to have more than 1 sportsbook because they may offer different things and also if you compare odds, one might offer something better than the other.

William Hill is neat because you use credit card to deposit and you withdraw directly into your bank account. No cheques or paypal needed.

I'm not going to step on anyone who has an affiliate link to a sportsbook, but if the day comes you want to make a deposit and need a reliable list of books I can certainly point you in the right direction. I am not an affiliate of any book, but lets just say I have a huge interest in what happens in the off-shore community.

Please, do tell....you've certainly perked my interest

Another forum, the biggest handicapping forum on the internet, has a list of preferred books, I talk with the owner now and then, but post at the forum on a regular basis. If you sign up with one of the books on his list and use his site as the referral he will go to bat for you if ANY problem arises, ANY. There are literally thousands of people on his site in the hours leading up to game time on Saturday and Sundays, the last thing any off-shore place want is to have it's name posted as a rip off or unfair in a place as big as this one. There are never any guarantees in the off-shore business, but this is as close as you will find, the owner is a stnad up guy and well respected by the various off-shore placs, he could do real damage to their reputation if he wanted to. Also I work for a sports handicapping service on the internet, I will not post or spam the site here, that's not our style, and keep up with what happens at various books as much as I can, we do get referal money from some books, but I would honestly rather you use the forum I spoke about as the referal simply because it is not worth it to us to have someone get ripped off and us be able to do very little about it when this other guy will have your back.
I would be glad to mention the name of the other forum after TP says it's OK, but here is a lost of the books that are solid as a rock IMO:

PinnacleSports
BETCOM
Gibraltar
ParlayBook
TCBets
BetRoyal
My Bookie
VIPSports
BetWWTS
BetGameDay
Olympic
CRIS
SportsBetting.com
5DIMES BestLineSports
Millennium
BetJamaica
BET19
SuperBook
Wall Street
WagerStreet
WagerOnSports
SportsInterAction
V-Wager
BetOnline
Beverly Hills
Infinity
WSEX

I currently use 5 or 6 of those books and don't have any trouble whatsoever, my favorite right now has to be BetJamaica simply for their customer service and speed of payment when requested and thats actually the only book I would prefer to get the referal to if anyone used it simply because I have had alot of experience with then and feel sure about that outfit.

TP, please feel free to delete anything that interferes with your business intentions.

Good stuff - thanks for the post. Can you do me a favor and PM me w/ the forum you're referring to? Thanks.
