Solving Problems

Now that we’ve covered sports betting education in our EDU Section, the next logical step is to walk you through the many questions and problems that may arise when you’re selecting a sportsbook and when you’re getting ready to actually bet with that sportsbook.

This is another facet of online sports betting that just gets glossed over typically, but we’re here to help. Things are not always so straightforward with sportsbooks – some take Paypal, some do not. Some allow a certain method for deposit, but not withdrawal, which may mean an unexpected delay in receiving your winnings.

Some sportsbooks out there are actually offshore books – which are not legal or regulated by any state gambling commission.

Decide on Your Requirements Before Choosing Just One Sportsbook

At the end of day, your selection of a sportsbook boils down to what’s most comfortable and important to you. If you’re focused on sports betting markets and odds that aren’t bit off the beaten path, you should find a sportsbook that caters to that, even if it’s not one of the ‘big’ names in sportsbooks. If odds variety for increased profitability opportunities is on your agenda, choose multiple sportsbooks!

If you’re only bonus-driven, both on sign-up and as a continuing customer, find and stick with the sportsbook that offers the largest rewards – but always read the fine print – things aren’t always what they seem with sportsbook bonus offers.

If what’s most important to you is ease-of-use and speed of the app, then compare a few sportsbooks and test them out. When you find the app you’re most comfortable with, stick with that, again even if it’s not one of the most well-known apps. It’s certainly true that slightly more obscure sportsbooks can have a better user experience than the ones you always see advertised!

Ready to Bet?

Yes. Absolutely. From sportsbook to sportsbook you will find small line changes, different enhanced odds and boosted odds features and much more. Small odds lines differences can add up enormously – with an odds change as small as -110 from -125, over the course of 100 bets, you could increase your winnings up to 60%.

Definitely not. You want to find a sportsbook that’s stable, has tons of sports markets to bet on, offers boosts and features, is FAST (as odds change in a hurry), offers plenty of deposit and withdrawal options, and above all, that you’re comfortable with.
