Has anyone used this service, and if so, how reputable are they? Looking to place a bet this weekend and just seeing if there are any loopholes are nuisances with this website. TIA.

Probably better to ask to move to the MSB.

Also, people usually recommend 5dimes.

I would go with 5 dimes.....I seem to remember an instance this summer where a longshot came in and Bovada screwed a bunch of folks, and IIRC this wasn't the first time they had done something like that.

I can personally recommend Heritage Sports and 5 Dimes.

No reason to play at any other sportsbooks.

I've used Bovada with no issues.

Deposit with a Visa. When you withdrawn they send a check. Typically takes about two weeks from the time you request it.

From an earlier thread about Bovada:

Vegas Gambling Steam ?@Pregame_Steam 8h
Update #Bovada pays out $3,770 to the bettor that won $21,000 on Lisicki vs Serena Williams bet. Bovada has now banned the player from site

I asked about this the other day on MSB and only got 1 response. I've also heard bad stories about dealing with online books.

So here's a scenario for the MB, LSU was 28:1 to win it all on sportsbook the other day. As a fan, its what you want to happen so you put a little (200 bucks) on the season. Tigers win and you turn 200 into 5600. Who can you trust to pay you?

I've used Bovada for years. Never a problem (other than occasionally it won't take my Visa).

I love their site, very user-friendly, also like the mobile app.

Have used Bovada for a long time (non sports betting) and have cashed out a lot.

I used Bovada and cashed out 9k one weekend, albeit in 4 different checks....

I enjoy it, i used sportsbetting.com prior to its demise....

I use bovada and have never had a problem. The checks you get from them when you cash out are a little sketchy though. Its always from some bullshite business, and the last one i got i remember there were instructions telling me to use the deposit box on the atm to deposit it. Ive cashed out a few times for over 1k and the checks have always gone through.

Can't speak for the other sites mentioned here, but I use 5dimes and have had ZERO problems. Their website is extremely easy to use, lines for the next week are out a day after the previous week is over, and their customer service is absolutely stellar.

Plus you get reduced juice as a new member.
