Exclamation Beware of Bet911 offers

Beware of Bet911 (SBR rating D-) offers

The slow-paying sportsbook is offering 30% cash bonuses along with other discount offerings such -105 reduced juice specials and free half point Tuesdays. Players should avoid all questionable and unproven sportsbooks, especially those marketing overly generous promotions this time of year. As football comes to a close many players will be requesting payouts and testing the financial strength of these sportsbooks. Many sportsbooks will market these offers irresponsibly, knowing that if the ball does not bounce in their favor, players will not be paid. Bet911 has already shown they can not fulfill payout requests of large winners.

Completely agree... This could really really help someone who just stumbles upon the site because of a 911 mailing or email...

Thanks BBD!

-105 pricing is a recipe for disaster unless you have top-notch linesmakers and software. -105 pricing with 30% bonuses is an unconditional disaster.

My prediction: 6 months before they close, start slow-pay/no-paying or change their promotions.
