After Matchbook went away, I signed up at 5Dimes.  They are pretty good with live betting although their betting screen is weak, and they log you out every five minutes.

I opened an account with Bookmaker, but every time I look at their "NBA-Live Betting" link during the commercial breaks tonight, there are no lines.

I am just interested in spread, totals, and money lines during the commercial breaks.  I don't care about props.

So, who are the best books out there for live betting?

Thanks,

Jeff

Not the most experienced online gambler but Bodog does a pretty good job so far for live betting in my limited 2-3 week experience with them.  I always seem to find the right odds at the right time (especially with soccer) and the live betting has kept me from having a losing day.  Problem with Bodog in general is their lines are way worse than 5Dimes in that you don't get near as much value on some games.  Also sucks that I couldn't even bet Miami Heat money line for Game 3 because all they offered was a +2 spread.

Yeah, I was keeping an eye on BoDog too because they seem to have a decent live betting setup.

I saw a spread line with no money line option a few times.  That sucked.  I also notice their lines are bad too.

What about betting exchanges?  Since BetFair and MatchBook hate America, is there another option available for us?

Betmaker, owned by BetCris (also owns Bookmaker/DSI) but liquidity is low and lines are stale.

I've heard Sports Interaction has good live betting...a lot of options similar to Bet365

Yeah, as I mentioned originally, Bookmaker didn't even post lines during most commercial breaks last night.  They said sometimes they will post a line and sometimes they won't.  It's a "favor" by the manager if they feel like posting a line.  I don't have time for that crap.

Guys, I thought live betting was huge.  Are you all into it or not?  5dimes is ok for live, but I'm looking for a second option.  BoDog is the best I can come up with now but many seem to despise them. 

What are the best options for live betting?

Don't care about props...just want spread, totals, and ml.

Thanks!

Intertops has good options. SportsInteraction is also pretty good, although they are no longer taking US players.

I think the only books that have betting during actual gameplay(MLB) are sportsinteraction and sportsbetting.....
