Default Where to bet now?

Well, assuming Pinnacle stays closed to US customers, and that I don't know anyone in another country who would set up an account for me, any recommendations for where to go now for strange wagers and reduced juice? Anything other than the exchanges? Anyone have opinions on the exchanges as to which is best? Bah, damn you Pinnacle. Ruined my whole morning.

Well, I've settled on Cascade for now. I'll take the reduced juice over the bonus.

Does Cascade allow buying/selling of points the way Pinny does?

I'll probably be making a large redeposit to Mansion as soon as my cashout from Pinnacle goes through. Their exchange is still open to US customers and on the mainstream games (NFL, big college games, etc.), you can still get pretty good prices, better than Pinny in a lot of spots. I do need to find a reduced juice book for smaller college games and 1st half lines though. Might have to look into Cascade.

Does anyone know why Cascade is requiring me to enter a referral account number when I try to sign up? (Or could someone refer me and pm me the info so I sign up?)

How does Mansion exchange compare to Matchbook?

Lot less action, but 0% fee for buyers and 0,5% fee for sellers. That's about as good as it gets, though the interface is crappy. I just wish some 5% 'rake' Betfair action would find out about Mansion.

But that's like trying to get the fish to play WSEX, I guess.

Any recommendations for good basketball individual player props? I have accounts at Bodog and TheGreek for this, but Pinny typically had a better selection. Anything comparable?

So where should I go now? I bet on NFL, NBA, and NCAAF(and occasionally movies, but that's not too important). Not big on player props, but would like overnight lines. I already have Bodog and WSex accounts.

Please tell me where I should create my next account out of the following:
5Dimes
BetCris
The Greek
Bet Jamaica
VIP Sports
Skybook

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

I've been happy with 5Dimes and The Greek (Olympic).
