Sportsbook Review (Best Gambling Websites)

Picking a quality sportsbook involves numerous factors. Regardless of whether you are $10 a game player or a "wise guy", you want an honest book with financial stability and quality customer service. There are a number of high quality sportsbooks to choose from so there is never a need to settle for anything less.

In addition to financial stability and customer service, you should check the odds that the books offer. The parlay payoffs should be listed in the help area of any sportsbook. Some offer better payoffs than others. If you are a baseball handicapper the odds become even more important. You want to look for "dime lines". Instead of the usual -110 on both sides of an even game, you will see both sides listed as -105. This lower takeout percentage will usually be seen up to some particular odds limit, depending on the sportsbook. For instance, some books may offer a "dime line" up to +160. See below for my recommended sportsbooks, all of which offer dime lines.

I have been playing online for over 10 years and have joined 24 different sportsbooks. Some are much better than others. The Greencapper pages will offer links only to the best of the best. These are sportsbooks that are financially stable, offer premium odds, and have quality customer support. Below is a short review of the Greencapper's favorite sportsbooks.

Note: it is a trick of many of the low quality sportsbooks to sign up new customers with promises of huge bonuses. How much sense does it make to sign up for a 50% bonus only to play at a sportsbook with a huge take out? You are wasting your time. It is much better to choose high quality books with lower takeouts, and if you can get a 10% or 25% bonus to start with, more the better!

Bet Jamaica Bet Jamaica is a solid book. Withdrawals are faster here than with any other book I have tested. Only problem is the way it keeps making you relogin after a few minutes of inactivity (very annoying). They should take a tip from their system site at www.thegreek.com and allow you to stay logged in until you are finished. Anyway, it's a small complaint about an otherwise A+ book.

Support
Very good. There are several toll free numbers and questions have always been answered promptly.

From the "Main Menu" choose "Parlays". Choose your sport(s). This is nice because you can check multiple boxes. This allows you to create a parlay using baseball, football, and basketball (and other sports) all on the same ticket. This can be very clumsy to do at many sites, but BJ makes it very easy. Once sports are picked you continue on to check mark your picks. Continue to the next screen where you can you the drop down box to select from numerous round robin possibilities.
