I use 5dimes for challenger betting. Does anyone have another site that people from the USA can wager at? Thanks for your help in advance.

I think in terms of clarirty, usability and efficiency, Centrebet is the best i have used.

I have account with other companies such as Betfair and Pinnacle but Centrebet is my primary use.

It covers most sports i am interested in, has decent odds and multi bets are very easy to produce.

I have a small site for gambling reviews. For me the best site for betting on sports is Betfair.
Here are the benefits of using Betfair sports
Better odds- As you are betting direct with fellow punters at Betfair there are no hefty bookmakers' margins resulting in odds that are on average 20% better.
Most of the online bookmakers reduce your stakes or close your accounts if you are successful. In Betfair your stake will never be reduced. They never close winning accounts. There are no limits. You can bet without worrying for limits.
Live in-play betting- You can bet almost on every single event live.
Safe and secure- Betfair has over 100 000 active customers a month placing over million transactions a day, making Betfair the World's number one betting exchange. The transactions in and out of the account are fast and secure. You can deposit or withdraw at any time.
Watch live video of many events(mainly football and tennis)
Credibility- Betfair were awarded the Queen's Award for Enterprise in the Innovation category in 2003. Betfair hold Memorandum of Understanding's (MOU) with multiple sports organisations around the world helping to ensure fair play.
Back and lay- The most important benefit. When you "back" a selection (be it an individual, a team, horse, dog or other), you are betting that it will win. This is just like betting with conventional bookies. When you "lay" it, you are betting against it winning. For example, if you're betting in a market on which team is going to win the Premiership and you lay Man Utd, you offer odds to other punters who wish to back Man Utd. If Man Utd don't win, then you pick up the backer's stake. If Man Utd win, then you pay out. This is what bookmakers traditionally do. Back and lay creates many new possibilities. Many new tactics.

I have an account with them, use them at times for the footy codes mostly because of the lines & prices they offer are very competitive compared to other books ($1.93). Payouts are reasonably quick as well.

Main gripe would be that for other sports they are quite late in putting up markets

We've got reviews of nearly all the major bookie sites and exchanges at Priceform if any of you guys are interested for a quick look reference about changing books.

UK, European, Australian, American - you name it, it's there. Just click on the bookie for reviews and critical info about the various sites.

For Betfair etc, just click on exchanges in the menu bar. Hope it's of some use to any of you. :hatoff:

BetChoice

Seems pretty solid. Offers just about everything in terms of Basketball (NBL, NBA, Spanish Euro etc) and other popular US sports. Not the best with football, but i usually use Pinnacle for that or Betfair.

Check it out fellaz, i recommend it:yeah:

Everybody always seems to recommend Betfair. I'm wondering why that is? Just because it's the biggest name? All things considered equal (and assuming they're not frauds), isn't it about a) liquidity and b) what kind of commission they are taking? Here's top100bookmakers comparison charts. very helpful in my opinion:

Because its a betting exchange. The betting exchanges offer more than 30% better odds, especially when betting on outsiders, at betfair I have made some bets that I cant make at bookmakers, if you want to bet big and win big its at the betting exchanges. Other than Befair, Betsson is also betting exchange and they take only 1% commission. While BEtfair takes 5%. You can find review of BEtsson here - http://www.gamblingsafe.net/online-bookmaker-reviews/112-betsson-sportsbook-review.html
Betsson s site just takes small commission on your winning bets, around 1% of your winning ammount

I think Betfair are the best because of the ease of use of their platform.

The fact that you can lay the outcome if you think the odds are
to short & back when it drifts & trade out for a guaranteed profit
& the opposite if you think the odds are to big you back & lay it
when the odds tighten is superb.

You start to get better at predicting, if the market has got the
odds incorrect.

The only drawback with Betfair is the 5% commission on winnings,but with much better average odds than the majority of the
online bookmakers, more than makes up for it !

What kind of limits does Ladbrokes have on tennis, and how quickly do they cut your limits if you're winning ?
