Default Building a US Sportsbook Portfolio

How do you guys have your BR split up on the various sites percentage-wise?

I've got about $3k to deposit and I plan on betting something like $30-100 at a time on baseball.

I'd like to minimize the hassle of depositing and someday withdrawing from all these sites as much as possible without sacrificing on lines. Maybe 40% 5dimes, 40% Matchbook, and 20% on a 3rd site?

What do you guys do?

If you're mostly betting $100 a game with $1k at a site plan on needing to re-deposit. You'll most likely make most of your bets at one book, in your case probably 5Dimes, so put more there and enough in the rest to cover a bet if you find a better line.

To clarifying I'm talking about using $30 units, but that could stretch to $100 with multi-unit bets and a potentially increasing bankroll. But yeah, avoiding redeposits is a plus.

Any elaboration on Bet Jamaica?

Also, is Matchbook a good idea or am I wasting my time compared to 5dimes reduced juice?

if you can wait an entire day to get the markets populated, matchbook is a very good option indeed. overnite they're inferior to the sportsbook choices.
