You bet is tops for US based companies, but Pinnacle gives a cash rebate for your horse racing wagers. I think its 10%.

I just signed up for a youbet account today. I'm new at all this and just learning the roapes. It seems pretty easy to get around in, and took my money just fine.

hooves, how does brisnet's live video compare to YouBet? Do you have to pay to have access to the live video?

Regarding pinnacle, why do you say "the kick back is good if you're a wp bettor"? The rebate applies to almost all bets, including exotics and show bets. (place and show bets paying $2.20 or less are excluded)

That said, 5Dimes is a better choice than Pinnacle in most instances. I'll put up a post sometime this week explaining that.

PS--if anyone does open at Pinnacle, he or she should open with as big a deposit as they can, up to $5000. You will only get one shot at the 10% bonus that Pinnacle offers for new signups. Almost all other books have some kind of provision for "re-load" bonuses, but Pinnacle does not. If you are a regular bettor, it should not take you very long to bet through the 3 x deposit amount that is required before withdrawing a bonus.

If you open at Pinnacle for $250 (the minimum required to earn the 10% bonus) and lose it, you will get nothing the next time you deposit.

I just looked over 5 Dimes and I don't see how I can agree with you. While you do get that 10% promotion on WINNING tickets, I would rather get 7% on all tickets. The way they cap odds is not cool either. Pinnacle has the HIGHEST caps in the business, they process withdrawals within minutes, and while there wager pad is less to be desired, it still gets the job done
