great question.

betonline does more than bookmaker?

Chat GPT...

• BetOnline and Bovada likely lead in raw volume due to their massive user bases and aggressive marketing in the U.S.
• Bookmaker.eu is a favorite among professional bettors, meaning fewer users but higher stakes per bet.
• Pinnacle is often considered the global leader in sharp action, but it doesn’t serve U.S. bettors directly anymore.
• Heritage Sports and 5Dimes have loyal followings but operate at smaller scales.

Except Pinny. But, they aren't avail in US.

Probably was BOL until they decided to remove all bonuses. They lost a fair amount of volume doing that. I'd guess Bookmaker does more volume than BOL. I certainly use Bookmaker more. Higher limits and instant rebet function. Site works much better too.

Right here on BMR if you go to the Sportsbook tab and then Read Review of certain Sportsbook it shows how many active players on that site. Looks like Bovada is #1 with 191k active players and Betonline #2 with 177k active players.
Bookmaker 51k active. Anyone worth their salt gets no bonuses at Bookmaker.

Bovada excludes more states now has to hurt

Want old BetOnSports to revive and keep kicking the perks to players.... Guess the DOJ wont allow it . Offhore bookmaking in its infancy. Wild West.

Why do some offshores exclude some states and others don't?

From my understanding it has to do with the legalization of online gambling in certain states. It's probably up to the individual book whether they can operate in a certain state

Pretty much this.

Combination of states who have shown they will be very litigious of someone doesn’t voluntarily exclude its residents from playing there vs the licensed operators and in cases like Nevada - the number of pro players and potential for drawing in “undesirable” customers for the book.

Nevada is very protective of the well established casinos and every politician is in their hip pockets. No way in hell they aren’t going to fight like hell against an un-regulated operator who has a fraction of the overhead (including political payoffs).

NY is another very litigious government - these guys see what the fentanyl seizures and Purdue Pharma settlements handed out by the courts and want no part of that - easier to exclude than risk pissing off certain states.

You’ll notice Florida and Texas are not on the un-regulated banned list as far as I know - despite being very protective of their licensees - probably coming towards a showdown in the next 5 years as the apps lose more and more and customer cost of acquisition increases.

It is a total mess how these un-regulated books pick and choose which states to exclude based on local litigation risks
