ZEturf is a sportsbook using Proprietary Software software licensed in Malta. It is owned by Zeturf Limited. The site's primary language is English. A download is not required to place a wager.

SkyBet Review

Daily Stream Review Overall Rating: A+


SkyBet, formally known as Surrey Racing is now part of the BSkyB Group Plc and all sporting event broadcast on Sky Sports is covered at SkyBet. Needless to say there are betting options on a large array of sports such as athletics, boxing, cricket, golf, motor sports, rugby league and union plus football, tennis and US sports.
In addition to internet and phone wagering Skybet customers can place bets via the TV interaction with SKY Vegas Live (available to subscribers in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland) and Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) which includes news and videos from Sky Sports and Sky News, plus live scores, and UK weather information.
The website was once considered to be completely inefficient but following a makeover in 2005 it greatly improved but the layout is too overwhelming with all the links plus the red and blue color combination.
Using OpenBet software, SkyBet is able to offer live wagering, live audio commentary for all UK race meetings and any other listed race, plus multi currency options in GBP, Canadian, US, Euro, Hong Kong, Australian and Singapore dollar.
Limits are not listed but if you are restricted when making a wager online you can contact the call center to request increased limits.
Change the look of the website with the useful "Boss Look Busy" link which is available for bettors in the workplace.
Sky bet has also gone one step further and considered customers who maybe cognitive, visually and/or mobility impaired by incorporating easier to use features in to their website.
Deposit options are limited to debit / credit cards only and withdrawals are done by check.
Minimum deposit is £5 or equivalent and upon registration you can set your own maximum daily deposit limits from £5 to £1000.
Customer service is only available via email, telephone and regular mail only. Hours of operation are 9am until midnight Sunday to Friday and 8.30 until midnight on Saturday. Regrettably there is no indication of the time zone.
Residents of the United States and territories are not able to wager at Skybet.
Registered in the United Kingdom and listed on the London Stock Exchange customers are guaranteed an above average gaming experience at SkyBet. However they still have a little more work to do it they want to compare to William Hill and Ladbrokes.

BET24 Review

Daily Stream Review Overall Rating: B

VCBET Review

Daily Stream Review Overall Rating: A

Having existed for over 60 years, it definitely shows in the professional manner in which Victor Chandler does business.

Their site ranks as one of the best bookmakers out there, and when it comes to the important things in running an online betting site, VCBet completely meets or exceeds your expectations.


The betting odds at Victor Chandler are extremely competitive with other top online bookmakers, they have a great choice of online sports betting markets and a huge choice of sports to bet on all around the world, and their website is very well designed and easy to use.

Betting limits at VCBet are often very high too
, and much better than a lot of other online bookmakers.


PaddyPower Review

Daily Stream Review Overall Rating: A+

Paddy Power is a really wide ranging betting site, where you can bet on a huge variety of sports, as well as more unusual prop betting, like novelty bets, lotteries and financials. This adds a level of interest that elevates it above the average sports betting site, making it a true all round site for the avid bettor. It bills itself as "The Punter Friendly Bookmaker".
This is Ireland`s biggest and most successful bookmaker. It has an extensive and long-standing land-based operation, founded in 1988, so the web site is simply the extension of an established and reputable business. It is listed on both the Irish and the London Stock Exchanges, under it`s holding company, Paddy Power Plc.
As far as sports betting is concerned, Paddy Power offers a wide range, including football, racing, golf, rugby union, rugby league, snooker, motor racing, athletics, darts, European sports, North American sports, winter sports, and cycling. Then there are the more unusual betting options, like hurling, the closing figures of world financial markets, reality TV shows, Coronation Street, international politics and the music charts.
A casino, a poker room and a bingo site are also offered. The casino uses proprietary Flash software, requiring no download. The poker room also uses proprietary software, but it needs to be downloaded. Both are independently audited and certified for fairness. The software used in our opinion is not the best out there. We highly recommend Paddy Power as a sports betting site, but recommend you look elsewhere for poker and casino games as this is not their speciality.
Whether you`re a sports betting fan or love prop betting, you`ll find plenty to keep you happy at this betting site.

BetFred Review

 Daily Stream Review Overall Rating: A+

Betfred, formerly known as Dones, was established in 1967 by Peter and Fred Done. Now run by Fred, this is a bookmaker to be taken seriously, especially when you consider they are the world’s biggest independent bookmaker with a combined turnover of £1.5billion.

WBX Review

 Daily Stream Review Overall Rating: B

WBX, or World Bet Exchange, is a person-to-person bet exchange, where punters can trade bets with each other on the world’s major sporting, political and entertainment events.

Unlike traditional bookmakers, WBX’s Members bet with each other, becoming either a backer or layer of teams or entrants taking part in major competitions across the globe. WBX acts as a broker, taking a small commission from the winner of each bet that is placed.

The prices you find on WBX have all been set exclusively by theyr Members using money they have already deposited with them to place their bets. This means that WBX has no financial exposure whatsoever on the bets placed on our website.

Offering a new and exciting alternative in person-to-person betting, WBX now finally provides the choice that will ensure the future of exchange betting always remains in the hands of the consumer.

WBX will consistently operate at some of the most competitive commission rates in the industry - not just initially but for the long haul. They'll never increase their own profit margins at their Members’ expense - as far as they are concerned 7% deductions are for loan companies, not bet exchanges.

Betsson Review

 Daily Stream Review Overall Rating: B+

With a bookmaker's permit and registered offices in London and Malta Betsson is wholly owned by the Cherry Fortragen, a group registered on the Swedish Stock Exchange as "Cher-B" operating for over 40 years and specializing in internet, casino and gaming machines.
Basically Betsson is made up of two divisions Net Entertainment which sells software solutions to online gaming companies and Betsson Online which provides wagering opportunities to online gamblers.
The design and layout of the website is very impressive and navigating all areas of the sports, casino, poker, scratch card and the sports betting exchange is undoubtedly simple.
Catering mainly to the European market, Betsson offers a great range of wagering options such as hockey, NFL, basketball, snooker, rugby, cricket, biathlon, ski jumping, business and politics. In particular their soccer coverage is extensive and perhaps one of the best out there.
The minimum stake value is €3 and the maximum is €5,000, or equivalent. The winning limits are pretty low, the maximum amount is €5000 per bet and up to €10,000 per day, €25,000 per week, or equivalent.
At Betsson customers have the added option to trade bets to make a profit and choose their own odds with the sports betting exchange, it seems complicated especially to new users but avid users swear that this alternative adds spice to their betting entertainment. Quite simply the betting exchange allows customers to bet against each other instead of the bookmaker, keep control and take the bookmakers lay position.

10BET Review

Daily Stream Review Overall Rating: B-



Comments:


Established in 2003, the Bookmaker 10Bet quickly became an industry leader for soccer betting offering the widest selection of soccer leagues from all over the world.
Commited to offering the best and earliest lines, 10bet have proved to be a serious bookmaker and a home for large bettors and professional players.  Like BetCRIS, Pinnacle and Cascade high limits are available upon request up to 100,000GBP, simply submit a request online and its all handled within seconds.
Theres a selection of wager options to choose from plus exclusive to 10Bet is Mixed Games, a virtual match of 2 teams who actually play the same round of games but not against each other. You can check the site for full details of this unique option.
Place wagers in real time with Live Betting, in addition to the traditional handicap line and money line 10Bet offers the Asian Handicap Stye which is the starting score when you place a bet.
The layout of the website is perhaps not the best but its straighforward enough and most importantly it functions quickly
Customer service is available 24/7/365 but is limited to telephone and email only.
There's no horsebook so you will be disappointed if you like to wager on the ponies.
Limited selection of bonus / promotions.
Just like some other famous UK Bookmakers (stan James, Eurobets - just to name a few) US customers cannot wager at 10Bet.
The rapid growth of 10Bet can be attributed to their commitment and excellence and you can feel confident that you are dealing with an experienced and secure bookmaker licensed and regulated in the UK.

Pinnacle Review

Daily Stream Review Overall Rating: A+
Financial Rating: A+ | Customer Service: B+ | Software Rating: A+ | Bonus Rating: B-

Comments:    

Pinnacle Sportsbook operates on the lowest bookmaking margins in the business, which means the best possible pricing for bettors. Those that understand how important the smallest edge is to successful sports investing understand that they can not afford to pass on Pinnacle. The sportsbook has become somewhat of a high-volume, high-value sports betting warehouse.

When Pinnacle Sports, located in Curacao, Netherlands Antilles, came online in 1998, most bookmakers were battling for business using bonuses as their main weapon. Pinnacle’s quick-moving low juice lines educated players on the value of line shopping; and it wasn’t long before Pinnacle began taking business from the competition.

The growing customer base allowed Pinnacle more flexibility to safely book reduced juice at, what eventually became, the industry’s highest wagering limits. Pinnacle’s no-nonsense approach to bookmaking more closely resembled a stock trading website than the traditional online sportsbook. Pinnacle allowed the highest concentration of sharp players to shape its line, which in turn shaped the rest of the sports betting market. Today it is impossible to find an online bookmaker or a Las Vegas sportsbook that doesn’t pay attention to Pinnacle’s numbers. Pinnacle’s lines were so sharp that they became the first online sportsbook to move odds by pennies (odds changes equating to a fraction of what it would take to move the spread a half point). Last year Pinnacle was able to reduce its margin even further on NFL spreads, cutting the cost from -105 to -104 style pricing.

Pinnacle’s website and betting screens are as sophisticated as its bookmaking style. Many books use the ASI software platform; however Pinnacle’s is almost unrecognizable due to in-house enhancements. Modifications include a proprietary spread drop down option that allows bettors to buy and sell points, and an account history option that is unmatched by the best online banking websites. Pinnacle took sports betting 101 a step further by offering dynamic lines, which lets players watch the odds move live with color changes without the need to refresh the browser.

Customer service is handled almost exclusively by email, allowing Pinnacle to keep their operating costs low. The company’s efficiency means some players can go years without ever having to contact client support. On the rare occasion there is a book error or player dispute, the customer is addressed promptly and courteously. 

Overall, Pinnacle is a great book for the moderate to larger size internet bettor looking for the best betting odds for both American and European sports. This is the undisputed best sportsbook for the professional player, without a close second in sight.

On 1/11/07, Pinnacle sent waves through the gambling industry by leaving the American market. Many of the sharpest players were left without a place to make large wagers and were forced to reduced their overall betting volume.

The Greek Review

Comments:
   
The Greek Sportsbook is a must-have for the smart veteran sports investor who enjoys following the odds almost as much as betting them. Simply put, no one offers more betting options and offers them faster than The Greek. This sportsbook is known for its ability to set the early market odds on events without having to worry about weak lines. Professional players are well aware that getting a crack at the early betting line is worth as much as, and sometimes more than, huge bonuses or reduced prices.

BetCRIS Review

Daily Stream Review Overall Rating: A+
Financial Rating: A+ | Customer Service: A | Software Rating: A- | Bonus Rating: B

Comments:

To say that BetCRIS Group is a leader in the offshore business is an understatement. This is the place where all lines start. Most books will not even open a betting line until CRIS oddsmakers have established the number. The days of watching Las Vegas have long since past. This is a high-volume bookmaker that takes $5,000 bets as routinely as most books take $100 bets. This is where professional players play. In a day where successful players find that their limits are cut for winning too much, players can win without limit at BetCRIS and get paid with a smile into the millions of dollars. For just about as long as there has been offshore wagering, there has been BetCRIS. This is a very large and established operation that is best suited for the sophisticated player as well as large recreational players who typically wager $500 per event or more.
