MyBet.com might have a strapline that customers can ‘win with ease’, although they might want to focus a little more on allowing them to ‘bet with ease’ instead. The one saving grace for MyBet.com is that they have excellent soccer odds, although it can take a few clicks to navigate through to the markets that you want to place bets on. While it appears that the company have reverted from being a betting exchange to a fixed-odds sportsbook, there is a clear attempt to offer tight margins to customers on all the top soccer leagues and for that they should be applauded. They have also introduced live betting in the last few months and it’s a neat console where you can see the odds change in real time. Read full review »

Pinnacle Sports was founded in 1998. The sportsbook is licensed in the Netherlands Antilles and accepts bets from customers all over the world. After their inception, Pinnacle quickly identified an opportunity to provide tighter margins than the vast majority of competitors and, once the customer base had grown, they start to raise their wagering limits to some of the highest in the industry.
Pinnacle Sports takes a unique approach to online sports betting. Their low margin pricing enables them to consistently offer the best odds on at least one side, often two, of any given betting market. Combined with the highest betting limits available online, this provides you with the best chance to win more with your sports betting.
Pinnacle Sports prices most markets with just a 2% margin, compared to other betting sites that add a margin of up to 20%. This enables Pinnacle Sports to offer exchange like betting odds, with guaranteed liquidity and without charging a 5% commission on winning bets.
It’s worth having an account with Pinnacle Sports just to sample some of the great odds that are available. For a soccer match, you will often find them offering the best price on both teams in a match which reflects the trader expertise that the firm have at their disposal. They are also renowned for the big stake limits for various markets and you will do well to find them turning away your business at any stage of proceedings. In July 2012, Pinnacle launched a brand new mobile product which allows the following:
- clear, easy navigation for sports, leagues and events
- option to automatically accept better odds speeds up the bet placing process
- odds available for all markets, including 'live'
- easy account review including bets placed, account balance and statement
- available in all supported languages

Boylesports has been established since 1989 and they have quickly grown into Ireland's largest independent bookmaker. Although this is partly due to the flotation of Paddy Power, there's no denying that they have ballooned as a company since going online in 2001, especially in 2006 and 2007.

Betway uses Orbis Technology for their sportsbook software, while the casino and poker software is powered by Microgaming. Betway are one of several bookmakers registered and operating in Malta, with operations under supervision and control of the LGA.
We’re big fans of this sportsbook, who take soccer very seriously and offer thousands of markets on a wide range of leagues. However, there’s quality in addition to quantity, with some particularly tight margins on the big Premier League, Champions League and Primera Liga matches. Betway also cater well for customers who like to bet on basketball, handball, tennis and ice hockey, although horse racing and cricket punters need to look elsewhere.
The In-Play offering is promoted prominently on the website, with many big soccer matches covered live, although the number of markets is generally limited to 1X2, Correct Score and other basic propositions. Nevertheless, this operator make it easy for you to find and place your bet, especially with the website loading quickly.

Luxbet is a Racing and Sports corporate bookmaking operation, licensed by the Northern Territory Racing Commission. They have a neat website and a pretty strong online sportsbook which is worth checking out. The site loads nice and quickly, with navigation and bet placing as good as any of their competitors.
If you’re a fan of betting on the Australian horse racing, then it’s imperative that you open an account with this firm, especially with their equivalent Best Odds Guaranteed promotion that gives punters that extra edge. It’s also nice that you can log into your account and place a bet just seconds before the off using Luxbet’s quick links. Join using their promotion code MAXIMUMBONUS and you'll get $500 free.
The sports betting coverage is good, although they will have to look at branching out more into live In-Play betting if they are to compete with some of the leading global players in this market. What really lets them down is the lack of customer service, especially as one of their mission statements appears to be treating clients with a specialised service.
However, they do have the unusual benefit to horse racing owners or trainers of offering them a 12% bonus on top of race winnings when they place a bet on their horse!

If you like betting on UK & Irish horse racing, then it’s imperative that you have a Totepool betting account. Racing customers won’t have it better anywhere else, due to the number of betting options available and the consistently competitive prices. For those wanting to bet on other sports, you may find the occasional big price at totesport but they’re very much a racing bookmaker first and a sports bookmaker second.
It’s nice to see that Totepool have recently introduced live betting and it’s not a bad In-Play console that mainly covers Premier League and Champions League soccer matches. You’ll find pretty sharp odds when it comes to many other traditional UK sports such as cricket, tennis, golf and rugby union. The next step is for totesport to look at diversifying so that they can appeal to a broader cross section of customers from Europe.

There are many things to like about NordicBet.com, especially now that they have added new features to the site which means you can quickly find the bet you’re looking for and customize the website for yourself. The site has a nice bright colour scheme and takes an unusual but refreshing approach to the way that markets and odds are presented. The odds really are the star attraction with this operator, with tight lines being made available for whatever sport and market you like to bet on. Their In-Play area needs a little work technically but has the makings of something which can rival the industry leaders as far as live betting is concerned.
The heavy use of flash does mean that the site can be slow to load in places, while the limited number of sports will be a turn-off to some customers. In addition, while NordicBet have a generous new customer bonus available, this is restricted to those in Sweden, Denmark and Norway, something which will alienate the overseas punter. The bet slip functionality works nicely and placing a bet is as smooth a process as anywhere else. A bookmaker well worth checking out if you like betting on soccer, ice hockey or handball!

There are plenty of good reasons to become a Unibet customer, especially if you like betting on UK and European football. The Swedish-owned company are very smart to recognise the increasing popularity of football, ensuring they cover a multitude of leagues with a plethora of markets. They bet to tight margins, so it’s definitely worth checking their prices before committing to a bet. The same applies across many pan-European sports such as tennis, basketball plus many sports that are popular in Scandinavia like ice hockey.
The website is clean and crisp, while the In-Play console is as dynamic as anything else out there. These guys mean business with their product offerings and their commitment to 24 / 7 customer service in a whole host of languages. At the time of writing, there are 25 different language options and the site has been translated into all of them, making Unibet a truly global bookmaker.

Sportsbet (www.sportsbet.com.au) claim to be ‘Australia’s Number 1 Betting Agency’ on their website and it’s easy to see why.
If you enjoy betting on Australian horse racing or greyhound racing, then there is no better online bookmaker than SportsBet. They not only cover every meeting under the sun (Down Under), they also provide such a comprehensive package that you’re almost overwhelmed by all the betting options at your disposal. The City Best Plus offer means that customers will always get paid out at the best odds and they can also land some extra cash through an exciting tipping competition available to all customers.
However, as mentioned, SportsBet will need to broaden their horizons if they are to encourage more overseas business. The soccer betting is pretty limited and many of the other sports listed only receive token coverage. However, the cricket and tennis markets / pricing illustrates that they have got the potential to produce tight lines for several other sports.

There are a lot of things to like about 188Bet, with their competitive odds and In-Play betting clearly the two stand-out features. However, in both cases, the company could do more to make them more user-friendly to customers. In the case of the live wagering, this deserves a designated area on the website rather than it being blended in with the pre-match markets, otherwise it's not immediately clear that some of the matches are taking place and others are yet to begin. Nevertheless, they deserve credit for having the traders or trading facility to ensure that they bet to competitive margins, especially on the top European leagues.
188Bet now need to look at how to appeal to a broader audience. While soccer is now the number one sport for betting, it doesn't mean it's everyone's cup of tea, with a limited range of other sports markets meaning that those wanting to bet on tennis or cricket will quickly look elsewhere. The customer service is particularly strong and it's encouraging to see a bookmaker new to the UK market not only emphasising their fantastic odds but also looking to help users with technical or betting-related queries. It must also be noted that their website is speedy and reasonably user-friendly.

bet internet like to keep things simple and enable customers to place bets quickly. The company have clearly put plenty of thought into the way the markets are structured on site and they provide plenty of coverage as far as football, horse racing, tennis and the US sports are concerned. Odds-wise, you will nearly always get a competitive price on your selection, with the best odds guaranteed offer on the horse racing providing extra value for those that like betting on this sport. It’s also nice to see a bookmaker cater for Asian Handicap punters and realise that several people like to bet quickly with these type of markets. Their customer service live support is a touch, while the goal alerts widget is a novel inclusion and the live scores section ensures that customers don’t need to veer away from the site much. However, they could probably do more to bulk up their Live In-Play betting, which extends to just a handful of soccer matches every day at the moment. Read full review »

Bet-at-home are a reasonably sound sportsbook which cater particularly well for soccer punters. If you enjoy betting on a wide range of soccer leagues (and we’re talking a lot!), then it’s well worth opening an account with these guys. You won’t find the hugest range of markets or the tightest margins, although it’s a pleasant and reliable betting experience with a speedy pay-out at the end if you happen to win! The biggest thing in bet-at-home’s favour is that they have a nice In-Play offering, which isn’t far behind the very best in the industry. If they can bolster the number of markets offered on the live console, then it will pack a punch for customers who show an increasing demand to bet on sports immediately. However, there are some aspects of the website that need a little work, namely the way that a long list of soccer leagues are shown and the fact that the language sites should advertise the leagues most relevant to the user in question.

These guys not only take great positions on big sports betting events, they also allow customers to continue betting to high stakes even if they are winning on a consistent basis.

McBookie would win first prize for being the most patriotic bookmaker in the industry. We imagine that a high proportion of their customer base reside north of the border and the firm certainly provide an excellent betting service when it comes to Scottish football and also for Scottish participants in other sports – Andy Murray being the notable example. Aside from the Scottish theme and the special markets, the site is exactly the same as JenningsBet in terms of navigation and markets / odds offered. That means a pleasant enough betting experience with lots of horse racing and football coverage, although nothing that would suit the In-Play customer or those wanting to bet on pan European sports like basketball.

Gamebookers are a reputable betting brand and that’s the reason why they were acquired by Party Gaming in 2006. While many of the aspects that made this bookmaker unique have now gone, it’s hard to quibble with the first-class service that’s still available.
In-Play betting is particularly entertaining at this site, while placing a bet is nice and straightforward with your winnings coming back to your account within a couple of days. However, essentially being a white label of a bigger company effectively means that there are limitations as to what the Gamebookers brand can now stand for.

PartyGaming are best known for PartyPoker, which is just about the biggest online poker room in the world. PartyCasino, PartyBingo and PartyGammon make up their portfolio, and they are licensed and regulated by the Government of Gibraltar.
The company were founded in 1997 and were one of the first gaming operators to produce a significant online offering. They continue to lead the way with their propietary software and are renowned for cutting-edge graphics and functionality.
The one area that currently makes PartyBets stand out is their odds on the big sporting events. It's clear that one of their acquisition strategies is to draw new customers in by offering 2/1 when other bookmakers have 15/8 available.
Nevertheless, it's still early days for PartyGaming, who are at least getting the basics right with their attractive zippy website, solid range of markets and odds, along with a round-the-clock customer services.

m88.com have a captivating website and will certainly appeal to customers who like betting on football to tight margins, especially on the Asian Handicaps. It’s hard to compare this site to a Ladbrokes or bet365 as it’s clear that the aim is to appeal directly to punters in south-east Asia, so it may not be to everyone’s liking in Europe. However, the site loads quickly and the In-Play service is pushed to the forefront which gives a dynamic feel. Perhaps the next step for them will be to separate the live betting from the pre-match odds to provide more of a distinction. A horse racing section has been rolled out to broaden M88’s appeal further, with the operator also covering tennis and basketball pretty extensively. Although the odds are always competitive, customers may have to look elsewhere for stronger coverage of non-football events, although the advantage of being a customer at this site is that you can enjoy a huge range of casino and games products, which the company are keen to push with a ticker on the sportsbook page!

There are several reasons why it’s worth having a betfair account. Firstly, you can often get better odds than any fixed-odds bookmaker and there’s also the fact that you can oppose a horse, player or team in a particular event. It’s brilliant to also have the flexibility of placing a bet knowing that you can lay off for a profit before the result has been settled.
The betfair website is a work of genius and it’s technologically more advanced than any other betting site in the world. Indeed, very few customers know the full capabilities of all the various trading tools available, although treating it simply as a fixed-odds bookmaker is what a lot of people choose to do.

If you're a customer who likes betting on horse racing, you're likely to have plenty of time for their first-class service on this sport.

As you might expect, this UK bookmaker are especially strong when it comes to horse racing and football, sports which have been their staple for the past sixty years in their land-based shops.
There is plenty of room for improvement, with the promotions page a little jumbled at the moment and one or two bugs pervading the site.

It’s a decent offering from Bruce Betting although if they are to follow in the footsteps of Irish counterparts Paddy Power and Boylesports, they will have to swiftly improve their website and make their product offering less UK and Ireland-focused. At present, the site has something of a homemade feel about it and there are spelling mistakes and slang used on the market descriptions which might put some customers off.
Placing a bet is nevertheless a straightforward experience, especially when you find odds that aren’t being offered by some of the bigger firms. Therefore, it’s worth having an account just to ensure that if you miss the price with another bookie, you might well find Bruce Betting still have the odds available. In addition, the customer service is very efficient and they offer a competitive racing product which is clearly their forte as far as trading is concerned.

Sportingbet Australia are the biggest bookmaker in Australia according to Michael Sullivan, the CEO of the company. The Sportingbet brand is certainly one of the largest in the world, with this sports betting company having successfully penetrated a range of different territories and their Australian customer base is now growing at a rate of knots.
UK customers will vouch for Sportingbet’s excellent horse racing service and the same applies with Sportingbet Australia who offer a first class offering when it comes to thoroughbred racing, harness racing and greyhound sports. Developing an Australian version of their site also means that AFL, rugby and cricket take centre stage rather than be pocketed away on a one-size-fits-all stage.
