i've got accounts at 2 on-line betting exchanges

easily the best is www.betfair.com - i'm led to believe that it is not available to residents of the US - it seems to cover all major american sporting events as well as the greyhounds in dublin and who will win the latest australian reality TV show competition

if it happens that you can open an account at betfair i believe they have a refer a freind bonus which i will happily kick back to you if you pm me

you dont want a sportsbook - you want a betting exchange - the latter is much more profitable if you plan to do some serious sports betting

Most established sportsbooks that are trustworthy do not offer large deposit bonuses. I personally would not send any money to a sportsbook I was not familiar with that offered over a 10% bonus.

Pinnaclesports.com has low juice baseball and I believe offers a 10% bonus to new deposits

5dimes.com has great betting options and a 10% bonus. I don't recall if they are dealing a dime line in baseball since I don't bet the sport.

A lot of the gambling portals are not reliable when it comes to sportsbook reviews since they are funded by sportsbook advertising revenues.

Forgot to mention as Lara1 said intertops is solid they do usually offer a signup bonus however their lines on most sports have full juice.

Same thing for WSEX which also offers sports and poker. Poker play has gotten very tight there of late.

Same thing for Olympic (thegreek.com) although they just recently started offering poker and have been bashed for hiring props.

i would highly recommend wager7 or payoffsplus(they use the same lines) as they have dimelines on baseball(-105 instead of -110), plus they give nice signup bonuses. also, check out osga.com(offshore gaming association). it lists all of the reputable sportsbooks. i used to be a sportsbook bonus whore, so if you want any other advice, feel free to pm me. i can probably tell you if a certain sportsbook is any good.
