The advice that is actually worth more than any bonus
Line shopping. Holding accounts at more than one book and taking the best available price on each bet is the largest reliable edge available to a recreational bettor, and it is larger than any signup offer. A half point on an NFL spread, or four cents of price on a moneyline, compounds across a season in a way a one-off bonus does not.
If you take one thing from this page, take that one, and read why odds differ between sportsbooks to understand where the differences come from.
How we choose what to list
We list books we would use ourselves and we say what is wrong with them. We do not list a book purely because it pays well, and we have declined placements. When an operator's terms change we update the page or remove it; the operator's own terms always take precedence over anything written here.

- Bookmaker margin and vig explained — what you are actually paying on every bet
- Sportsbook limits and risk management — why winning accounts get restricted

A bonus is not an edge.
A tracked record might be.
Before you follow anyone's picks, look at whether their results were logged before the games or written up afterwards.
