What popular sportsbook do you refuse to play with ??

For me it's BETUS.com... so many horror stories but millions play with them!!! If you had to name one popular sportsbook to stay away from who would it be ?

I've always dealt with 5dimes and the greek. Been great so far. Had one problem with the greek when I hit a royal flush for 20 grand and they made it difficult to withdrawal. better now though

i refuse to bet with Bookmaker.. they call WAY to much on the phone and I hate it, so I avoid them like the plague... even though I know money is 99% confident in the book....

Stay away from Oddsmaker, Bettonusa, and Sportsbook.com. Sportsbook.com has gotten a bit better. I like Linesmaker for their bonuses, and pay fairly quickly. The main reason I go with them is they are so good with depositing with credit cards. They even reimburse for any credit card fees into your account.

Really sucks Vegas is so crappy about sports betting cuz most online places really suck

The "accept your deposit instantly yet stroke you for weeks over withdrawals" is just so demoralizing and frustrating

All just a big game

Well the ridiculous juice and the lack of options (team totals, halves, quarters, etc)

Yeah you can find these bets in Vegas but its hard to do and you pay a LOT more juice than online (-110 or even -120)

The Vegas sports betting options and juice are a joke compared to online

Years ago I played with Sportsinteraction.com (think that was the name) based out of Canada. Awful awful book that took alnost 1 month to get a payout.

God, I hope they're out of business.
