This has probably been asked before. I may have even done it.

What is the best one to use?

Leaning towards tvg.com

TVG is the best, because they have the TV channel to go with it. Works well.

Doesnt hurt the bonuses they toss out.

Look for some bonus on Friday night for Preakness wagering like they did in the derby.

California Chrome takes the Kentucky Derby! Now he's a strong favorite in the Preakness Stakes. Don't settle for a short price. Place your wagers at TVG on FRIDAY, the day before the Preakness, between Noon - 1PM ET/ 9AM - 10AM PT and we'll guarantee a 3-2 payout if he wins, even if his final odds are lower! Your first win only wager in this hour up to $25 is eligible.

Guess the 4-1 Odds boost last time was a little too much.

I like xpressbet, especially the phone version, but maybe that because I am used to it. But I also have an account with TwinSpires because they have the brisnet forms which I like. I have never tried TVG.

I use the Big 3 (TVG, Xpressbet, and Twinspires), but my favorite is Xpressbet. It seems to be the most user-friendly of them all, plus I like the fact that there isn't a minimum deposit. Sometimes you just want to throw $2 or $5 on a race, but Twinspires has a minimum $10 deposit.

What I do like about Twinspires is that they give you free Brisnet PP's for the races that you bet on, otherwise it's $3 for a full card.


There's also a new one called BetAmerica but I haven't tried them out yet.

spmack, I would have expected a big Twitter guy like you to be part of the boycott of Twin Spires/Churchill over the implementation of the max rake just in time for the Derby.

I used Twin Spires last Friday, but otherwise I hadn't used them in months. The max rake thing didn't have that much of an effect on me because of my low usage. My main reason for using Twin Spires is for the Free PP's, but since 90% of my bets are on the major tracks with the big name trainers, you can almost find their Free Brisnet PP's online anyway.
