In order to access the sportsbook at SkylineCasino, you have to download the software. Once the software is downloaded and you click on the sportsbook tab, it takes you to the login screen for SkylineCasino.

SkylineCasino Professional Review |
| By David Lee |
|
Sportsbook First Impression
SkylineCasino has an instant play casino and downloadable casino software. It seems as though you have to download the software in order to access the sportsbook, but in actuality this is not true. There are two download options, the 10mb and the 5mb. Once downloaded and logged into the casino software, the sportsbook tab takes you to the SkylineCasino casino login.
Save your time and skip the SkylineCasino casino site, because you cannot use your username or money deposited in the casino to bet at SkylineCasino sportsbook. They are two separate entities. If you register at SkylineCasino casino, you will have to also register at SkylineCasino sportsbook.
Wagering
Wagering on sports at SkylineCasino is impossible. You must login to your SkylineCasino casino account in order to wager.
SkylineCasino has betting options for all the major sports and then some. They take bets for NFL, NHL, NBA, MLB, PGA, tennis, auto racing, soccer, boxing and some Reality TV and political wagers. The betting interface is absolutely seamless. Finding your betting preference is very easy and simple. Not only does SkylineCasino have plenty to offer by way of sports choices, but their betting options are just as extensive.
Wagering options:
- Straight wagers
- Teasers
- Parlay
- Progressive parlays
- Propositions
- Various political and entertainment propositions
Online sportsbook Research
In my online sportbook research, I found only positive things said about SkylineCasino. SkylineCasino is a subsidiary of SportingBet Plc, a UK registered public company traded on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange. If any problems were to arise, you can bet that you would hear about it very quickly.
Financially, you are not likely to ever have any problems. As long as there are people, there will always be sports wagering and this worldwide sportsbook company is likely to be around that long.
Promotions
SkylineCasino has an array of promotions at any given time.
- They have a 15% initial deposit bonus
- 5% re-load Thursdays
- Half Juice Fridays
- Higher payout odds for parlays on Friday
- A weekly no-juice college football game
- 2 free $10 football bets per month
- Double Your Winnings
- Tell a Friend
The "Double Your Winnings" is a promotion where you answer two questions regarding a future game and if you get both questions correct, you double your winnings for the day.
The Tell a Friend referral program pays you a bonus based on the amount of the initial deposit of the person that you refer.
Sportsbook Customer Service
As I have stated in previous reviews, the US sportsbooks should take a few customer service lessons from the UK-based sportsbooks. The customer service was excellent with live chat, phone access and email if you so choose. I asked many basic wagering questions that a beginning sports bettor might ask and they were very polite and friendly in helping me get started.
Bottom Line
The sportsbook tab in the casino takes you to SkylineCasino, which is an outstanding sportsbook that I would recommend to anyone looking for a sportsbook offering wagers on all major sports with lots of wagering options. The payouts at SkylineCasino are prompt and the deposit methods are plentiful and easy. The safety in your money being deposited in a legit worldwide online sportsbook makes up for the low reload bonus of 5% on Thursdays only.
