I am wanting to go with one, maybe two online books. I havent gone online yet, but want to get in before the season. I have done lots of research through threads and sites. My final candidates are Pinny, VIP, Cris, Hollywood, Bet Jamaica, and Betwwts. Please give me your experiences and opinions...and any recomendations for 1 maybe 2 books to go with...

First off, i'd post this topic in another Forum. You want advice from seasoned gamblers, not newbies like me. That said, heres my take on your choices since i have used most of the ones you've listed.

1. Pinny--simply one of the best. I actualy wonder from time to time why i would even think of using any other book. Cant beat reduced juice plain and simple.
2. VIP--I like VIPs reward program and thier site layout. But i can recall more than a few times thier site was down for whatever reason and i was unable to place a wager on-line.
3. CRIS--I tried CRIS and wasnt as impressed as most people. I cant really say why however. Theres just something about thier site layout i just dont like. Quality book however, that goes without saying. Just not for me for reasons i cant explain.
4. Hollywood--have not played there.
5. BetJamaica--Great book, but i use their parent company Olympic and find little or no reason to go back and forth between the two, so i just stick with the Greek.
6. WWTS--never used.

Other books you may want to consider.

Olympic--One of my all time favs. Payouts are lightning fast and you're money is as safe as it can be.
5-Dimes--Another one of my favs. TONS of betting options along with great teasor and parlay options if you into that kind of thing. Site layout is kinda of hokie though.
WSEX--This is were i go for live betting. Been around forever, and i always seem to do very well at thier casino for some reason. Probably just dumb luck. But i have a soft spot in my heart for WSEX ever since i turned 20 bucks into $400.00 playing BJ there one night and cashed out the same night with no problems whatsoever.
Bodog--I always wonder why this book get bashed on here as much as they do. I've always liked thier site. I've had no problems with this book and customer service is top notch. I also like the fact you can deposit money straight from your checking account instead of using the fee based neteller or Firepay.

Well, good luck. Hope this helped.

I'm also newly registered but have been betting on sports since 97.

I love pinnacle and olympic. They have the best customer service, great lines, great teasers( which is where the big money is IMO) and the payouts are terrific in speed.

You really cannot go wrong with either book.

Pinnacle has a lot of options for betting. They also have lines ahead of time which most do. There are some however that do not. Basketball is critical to get early lines the night before they change. WAGERMALL does not post early lines and I really do not beleive that they use all the books lines anyway.


Olympic is also a good book. Payouts are quick and simple.

Millinuem Sports offers great parlay odds and good bonuses. Payout there has been good also.

Infinity is the same great bonuses for first time accounts and payout is reliable and quick.

I started with SDB Global I beleive they have changed their name. Stay away from them as one day I had an account and the next could not get in touch with them. They were closed down for some reason.

It sucks that wagermall does not post lines early. However, I have been betting from that site for over 18 months and has experienced no other problems. Payouts are generally done pretty quickly, it just sucks that they are only done tues-thurs.

with all the different options with lines however, early or not, its pretty tough not to turn a profit with an account with wagermall providing you knwo your shit.

I make a killing each year with teasers on nfl and wnba/nba.

for the casual better like myself, who has a smaller bankroll, its a good choice.
