I have been using this one offshore sports book for a few years now, and absolutely love it, the interface, the customer service, the types of betting-they have a real good live betting interface- it is awesome. I was looking online and reading reviews about the different online sports books out there. What I would like is for anyone who has used or is currently a customer of any one or more of these online sports books to give me their personal experience, what they like, dislike and the problems that they have encountered and problems that I likely may encounter. Basically I would like to know if anyone can vouch for any of the following:
1. Bodog
Good rep, very square. Good site for betting dogs, although they deal a dual line, and you will be put on the "sharp" line set if you show you have a brain. Slow to move numbers, especially in smaller markets. Transactions were always a pain, but they have added Bitcoin now.
2. betway
Not open to Americans, decent rep
3. bet365
See above but with great rep, tons of options
4.William Hill
See above
5. My Bookie
They've been getting some better feedback lately, but they are rumored to be run by the old "Bet on Sports" shop that closed up. They also have some concerning wording in their rules which state they can confiscate an entire balance if they consider play to be non-recreational
6. BetOnline
Good rep, technically they put up the first line of any offshore, but limits are usually $250 on it. Once Pinny or CRIS opens they immediately copy.
7. Sports Interaction
Good rep, located in Canada. Very square and does not deal a dual line. No longer servicing US players
8. BetNow
Never heard of them. Stay away
9. intertops
Been around for ever. Bland and not many options but money should be safe
10. 5Dimes
One of the best reps, reduced juice, plenty of options.
11. Sports Betting
Owned by Betonline, same lines
12. Pinnacle
Reduced juice, very sharp. Money is as safe as it can possibly be offshore.
