Sportsbook for US bettors

Good morning, I am just getting back into betting after a 3-year hiatus courtesy of the US Congress and their making it so hard to deposit into an account. I'm curious what books US bettors use. I am currently using sportsbook.ag but I have two issues, 1 sportsbookreview has some negative things to say about them with regards to withdrawals adn 2 they don't post lines on a lot of the smaller ncaa basketball bets I want to make. Does anyone have a recommendation on a sportsbook that will accept deposits from a US bettor (I use Wells Fargo to do my banking). Thanks in advance.

GL today.

I use 5dime and Diamond. I have no complaints for either. Diamond posts their lines a little later in the morning, but it doesn't bother me.

Just looking at a few of these options. Are people pretty much resigned to not be able to deposit with a debit/checking/credit card? It looks like Heritage only takes the person to person or bank wire etc. The days of using my Wells Fargo/Wachovia check card were so nice.

I'm just someone that has been a casual observer of the forum for the last 6 or 7 years. Bet regularly in college and then quit when funding an account got to be a pain in the A.

I suppose your point about too much info on a public forum may be a fair one. But, that said, there are entire website that rate and review sportsbooks and how they deal with US players so I doubt there is any harm.

Didn't mean to ruffle any feathers just trying to get an insight into how people go about getting $ into an account. I threw in the towel when a sportsbook told me I needed to moneygram/western union cash to someone I'd never met in Costa Rica. Tested it out with a small amount and both of those companies refused to make the transaction.
