How much can you get down on a game? I need 1 to 3 dimes.

When are lines up?

How fast are payouts and how large can you go?

Is software reliable at crunch time?

It all depends on the offerings............there is usually no problem with getting down at least 2 dimes at a nice number.

Payouts are FREE and take about an hour.

The software is VERY good.

You can get down as much as you want, provided that there is enough money at the other end of you bet to match it.

Preliminary lines are up pretty fast; any games involving the MNF teams come in later. You can usually find about half the lines on Monday, the other half on Tuesday, with a straggler or two on Wednesday.

Payouts take less than 5 minutes usually with neteller. You can go unlimited, I believe.

Software is very sturdy; it freaking rocks.

Good luck, man. I love this place for single bets!

At its current pace, MATCHBOOK may very well find itself someday in the TOP TEN, or even TOP FIVE, of the yearly RX posters ratings of sportsbooks that is conducted Dec. 1st through Jan. 5th each year here at TheRX.

Most definitely. I mean, reduced juice books really are just going to get destroyed with matchbook. Why would I take -105 when I can take +110 or +105?

The money that you get because of the different odds really makes all the difference in the world; that change adds up!

I signed up for the free $50. Only complaint is that it takes too long for the web page to load when you first go to the site.

This book is awsome. I didn't realize that the free 50 they gave me was going to change the way I wager, but it has!

does matchbook charge 2% on ALL winning wagers or only the ones where you accepted an offer on the exchange such as MANSION?

really eh?

at MANSION it is 0% if you make an OFFER that is MATCHED....

& 1% if you ACCEPT an offer that is available....

only on the 'WIN' amount aswell.....

I wonder why MATCHBOOK gets all the press?

Because they charge only 2% of the NET win in any single market, which is advantageous if you play both sides.

Compare that to 5% at Betfair and a sliding scale slanted to millionaires.

The only bad is the limited deposit/withdraw options.

I cashed out a nice sum from them after the 50.00 free and got it very fast.

Would have loved for them to have more deposit/withdraw options.

Good customer service too.
