#1 book for me is betjamaica
#2 pinnacle.com (when making the bigger deposits for football season, not good if your a recreational baseball bettor like myself because you have to pay for fees when depositing less than $500, or withdrawing less than $500)
#3 mybookie.com (haven't used them in a while, but always recieved my payouts even if I wanted 4 in a week, they all were sent out the next businiess day)

I dont think you have to pay for fees for pinnacle to deposit. I could be dead wrong. Maybe if you use western union, but I'm not sure

Pinnacle is the best, bar none. Betjamaica is good too, but their interface is lousy, but a top notch book.

BET JAMAICA IS A SOLID SHOP AND SO IS PINNACLE THE ONETHING I DONT LIKE ABOUT PINNACLE IF YOU DONT WESTERN UNION THEM AT LEAST 1000 DOLLARS THEY WONT PAY THE FEES THIS SUCKS.

I AM PLAYING AT BOWMANS RIGHT NOW AND I AM NOT TO IMPRESSED FIRST OFF I DIDNT GET MY 10% BONUS BUT WHO CARES I DONT LIKE THE FACT YOU CAN ONLY BET 300 DOLLARS ON OVERNIGHTS AND WNBA THIS IS KIND OF LOW.ANOTHER THING I ABSOLUTLY HATE ABOUT BOWMANS IS THE TIME ZONE I HATE READING 16.05 AND 19.05 AND HAVE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE F-CK TIME THE GAME START EASTERN STANDARD TIME.

WHOEVER YOU CHOOSE MAKE SURE YOU STAY AWAY FROM (CASCADE SPORTSBOOK) THEY ARE CHEATERS AND ROBBERS WHO STOLE 660 DOLLARS FROM ME.

Jeeeeem,

The reason Bowman's posts starting times like 16.05 and 19.05 is because they don't want you to go through another unfortunate experience like you had with Lenny at Cascade.

Bowman's wants to make it easy for you to place your bets on time.

16.05 means the game starts at 16 minutes after 5.

19.05 means the game starts at 19 minutes after 5.

What could be easier?

Bowman's has your best interests at heart and you don't even realize it.

Maybe not the safest sportsbook compared to Pinnacly, Olympic, Betwwts, Cris, but it is safe. Especially since Madjack has it listed. He will back you up in case there is a problem and you have a legit case.

I just deposited $3,000 there and received a 20% CASH bonus. I only have to roll it over 3x. That is a great deal. $600 free cash. Can't beat that. Although they limit me to $500 online wagers, but you can call in and bet higher if you wish. I think I even got a free VEGAS INSIDER subscription but I don't really care about that.

Customer service was excellent. Andy handled my account. The site doesn't really advertise 20% bonus but they will give it to you. If you have problem getting it, ask for Andy.

If you want a 20% bonus at one of the safest sportsbooks out there, go with betwwts. I also deposited there $5000 and took advantage of the 20% bonus. I picked up $1000 cash free. Although you have to roll it over 5x. The only thing about betwwts is I usually can find better lines at other shops. So why did I deposit there? The 20% bonus and it is rock solid book. If it takes me long time to roll it over I am not worried. I know my money is safe. I'll only play there when I can't get a better line at another book.

Right now I would go with those 2. Both offer 20%. One you have to roll over 2x more but have more safety the other only 3x and it is a safe book. More importantly, it is 20% CASH bonus. Don't get fooled into match play.

Maybe splitting up your money with 2 books is best option. Then you can shop for the best lines. Could be the difference in winning 1-5 more bets this year! Or pushing. Especially if you like playing 2h lines.

Thats my 2cents. Good luck whichever sportsbook you choose (if you haven't chosen one already). You are smart looking to take advantage of the bonuses. I do too!

One more thing. Pinnacle is the #1 sportsbook IMO but not good for bonuses. Although you get a 10% bonus and I think it is only 3x roll over. Could be wrong. But def. #1 in my book.

How do rollovers work

How do rollovers work

What does a roll over mean? Is that how much in bets you need to make to be able to withdraw the money ? So $5000 deposit plus $1000 bonus is $6000. DO you need to place $6000 times 5 or $30000 in action to be able to collect ?

Thanks for all of the input, appreciated.

Yes. After making $30,000 worth of wagers, you are allowed to withdraw money and the bonus ($1000) is yours. You can always withdraw your money anytime, but if you have not met the roll over requirement, then they will take out the bonus money from your account. Which would be $1000 in this example.

I was looking at Wagerweb today as I have been watching their baseball lines for a couple of weeks and liked what I saw. And then I checked their "Payout" info...sheeesh! $20 per Neteller transaction and only $1000 per day....$50 for a cashier's check up to $4900 a day. Needless to say, I won't be re-upping there.

I finally posted up at Bodog a month ago...great deposit/payout options and free. The lines are juiced on the faves and overs though.

Beantown,

That time is military time and west coast time. It sucks. Other than that they have good dog prices overnight. Sometimes bettor than Pinnacle.

You should call about your bonus. My bonus wasn't applied until I called them. I re-uped this week for the bonus and now they are offering 20%. Missed that one.
