High Bonus: Up to 20% Free Money Added to Your Deposits
My own money has been at all these sportsbooks for years (excepting Bodog, which as yet does not open accounts to residents of Canada). Never had a cent go missing at any of them.

Low Juice: Would You Carry a 4.5% Mortgage when 2% is Available?
Probably more important in the long run than a high initial bonus is reduced "commission" on your winners. You can reduce your "interest rate" from 4.5% to less than 2%. Say you're a $110 NFL player, make 100 bets and go 55-45. At -110 odds you'd win $550, but at -104 you'd increase that by over 55% to about $865.
Pinnacle
Lay $104 to win $100 in the NFL and 105/100 in everything else.

Unfortunately, Pinnacle does not accept clients who are resident in the United States of America.
Canbet.com Sportsbook & Casino
Lay 107 to win 100 on every bet in football and basketball.

Early Line: Getting the Best Price
Occasionally you need to get down early before others have bet all the value out of an opening line.
CRIS
True to their tag line "where the line originates", this is usually the first of the offshores to post lines. Vegas often looks here first before putting up their own lines.
Free Half Point: Turn Pushes into Wins and Losses into Pushes
Why pay 10-15% for it if you can get it for nothing?
Square Line: Look here when shopping for Underdogs and Unders
Bodog
The public often backs Favorites and Overs and this book has a large customer base.
Founded in 1995, Bodog.com is currently processing around $6 billion per year in wagers. Unfortunately at present they do not offer accounts to Canadians.
