Default Sports wagering websites

Starting to get sick of Proline etc.. Any ideas where there is a good (CDN) affiiated website to wager on hockey, NBA etc..

Prefer one that uses direct deposit/withdrawl.

Thanks

I use sportsinteraction.com. It's in Canadian dollars and the payouts are reasonably quick. Advances on your credit card are treated as cash advances, so whenever I place want to fund my account I tranfer money to my credit card first and then fund my sportsinteraction account. This way I don't pay interest charges.

Here is a video where I show my son my favourite gambling website. Mind you, this was four years ago, so I'm not sure it is still active.

I was using 5dimes but I checked out sports interaction and I think I must just have to give it a try too.

What about withdrawals? Are they free?

I use partybets.com

No automatic withdrawl or anything, but the payments comes within 3 days of cashing out.

Bet365 for me (fka Bowmans). Very slick site and they have a mobile app so you can place bets on your crackberry (right after you finish talking to your addictions counsellor)

rubecube can clear it up but I think there's a thread dedicated to you gamblorz in the other sports part of the forum. Should help you out.

I have always used Ladbrokes.com. They let you bet on lots of sports, including the NHL. I'm not sure how the banking works with them as I am a very low stakes gambler and throw $25 on there every few months and bet a buck or two here and there. Any winnings are not big enough to necessitate withdrawing.

You can use Canadian dollars, and you can make really low-stakes bets (less than a dollar) if you want. Kind of fun to make a 0.25 bet on a 4-game correct score multiplier that could net $1000 if correct. Hasn't happened yet.

But... after looking at that sportsinteraction.com site, that might be an option for me in the future. Ladbrokes, of course, is not based in Canada but it lets you use Canadian dollars.

Pinnacle has the best lines. No site is going to be based in Canada as it is illegal.

Sportsinteraction seems to be Canadian-based, but I previously thought that it was illegal in Canada. Perhaps it is Native run? Or some other loophole.

Pinny (pinnaclesports.com) is by far the best sports wagering site out there and is what I've used for the past 3 years. Best lines, a ton of deposit options and really fast payouts. Pinny also allows you to deposit using CAD funds which is big plus for us Canadians. I've had no problems with them since signing up.

5 Dimes is really good too.

You got it! Just like all the poker sites they are running it on Native land in Quebec.
