Choosing an Online Sportsbook

The first step, if you're a new sports gambler, is to find somebody to accept your bets. Selecting an online sportsbook is the easiest way to place bets since online books will accept anybody and everybody as customers, as long as you have the ability to place money into their betting account.

As with anything that involves money, there are some shady online sportsbooks out there, so remember to take some time researching before sending your hard-earned money to any sportsbook.

Sportsbooks I can recommend without hesitation are:

1. Pinnacle Sports (non-American clients);

2. 5Dimes;
3. BetJamaica;
4. BetOnline; and
5. Bodog Sports.
