Beleive it or not NFL preseason is a week away. I have a NFL preseason system that I have been employing for 4 years now that hasn't failed me yet. (details in my post in 'the marshall plan' section below. I am not a sports bettor, except for the 5 weeks of preseason when I play this system, so I don't have a sports book that I deal with regularly. Last three years I have used oddsmaker.com which originally was pretty decent with easy deposits and payouts, but last year they made me fax all kinds of info in order to get my payout which they held up for a couple months.

So my question is, can anyone recommend a sportsbook that they use regualrly that accepts credit card deposits from the US and has easy reliable payouts that you don't have to jump through hoops to get? thanx in advance for your help.

Limited options

I used Bodog for a couple of bets last season. But the vig at Bodog seems too great. Also, stay away from SBG Global.

How much money are you planning on depositing, if you don't mind me asking? If it is a small amount (<$2000), you are better off sending a wire to Gold Pay and depositing into Matchbook. Lines there are essentially vig-free, but of course are sharp since it is a market. Assuming you are trying to beat sharp lines through handicapping, rather than line shopping, that is probably the best spot.

Otherwise, credit card deposits are dicey. It depends on your card and your bank whether it will get accepted anywhere.

I see matchbook gives a 0.1% rebate on baseball when people hit your offer. Do any of the other exchanges do liquidity rebates (Betfair, InTrade)? Are there any fees to deposit or withdraw funds? I haven't done any bonus hunting but would consider it, especially if I could get a tight line someplace like 5dimes and arb out on an exchange. Is this strategy still legit today or have sports trading programs eliminated it?

matchbook is great for us sports as it offers great odds and works as a betting exchange...betfair is not the first choice for placing us bets. pinnacle sports and bodog are also doing a great job...thegreek is a also a try worth! good luck with your systems!
