I'm about to make a $1,000 depoist. Betus is offering a 100% bonus. Bet Jamaica is a $200 bonus. Which do I go with? Betjamaica has the better reviews, but 800 bucks seems too much to pass up.

Thoughts?

I think you will be happier having the cash at BetJamaica, Im.

[Imgoinhungry]

Reasons? Thanks for the reply.

Can you list out the terms of both bonus offers? Rollovers, etc.?

bet jam


all around solid book

BETUS was a 6X rollover before withdrawals could be made.
BETJAMAICA Sportsbook Rollover The deposit and bonus must be wagered four times to be eligible to keep the bonus. Example: $500 deposit + $100 cash bonus x 4 = $2400 in action to keep the bonus.

If you were to get lucky and turn 1000 into 50K it would be very likely you would have a hard time collecting from betUS, not so with betJam.

Agree with this. BetJamaica payouts happen among the quickest in the industry.

[Doc JS]

another vote for BetJam...never had any problem with them...

[Fischnasty]

go with betjam. unless you like your book shading your lines. in that case, go with betus.

[robmpink]

Both suck. Betjam would be good but Herman -edit name- lies through his teeth so f them.

What do you mean by "shading your lines" with betus?

[Sam Odom]

What do you mean by "shading your lines" with betus?

They are known to deal 2 lines, they will profile you and adjust lines accordingly.

[Smurf71]

BetJam is more reliable on payouts but they also cut your limits faster. In BetUs betting limits are higher and they are better place for pro players for sure. If you bet small, BetJam is safer book for you. I don't think the BetUs rating is quite as bad as SBR shows it, I would call it B rated book, cause mainly the low rating has caused by John Morrison scam which won't affect you is you are playing solo. Take payouts in smaller parts and don't hit 15 team parlays...Bet US 100% free play bonus if you deposit a dime is 12k rollover + 60 days no payouts.
For recreational player BetJam is a better place as I said... Tell you the truth - one is blind and other one can't see!

just what sam said. they alter your lines (obviously in their favor) based on betting trends. its really nice if you want to bet a -200 fav at -245.

[trixtrix]

betus 100% bonus are freeplays, which cannot be used on parlays and/or teasers, this limits their value to ~ 500$ cash value;

betj bonus is all cash.

before making a decision either way you need to first start comparing apples to apples

[Imgoinhungry]

Awesome. Thanks for all the info guys. Trixtrix, the 100% bonus is real money. I called and asked them.

[andrea]

Yeah right, rollover is another to be considered.. Good luck men!

It's a bummer this still has to happen with some books. You would think a 20 cent line would be enough.

[trixtrix]

impossible. you're not the only betus customer and it has always been freeplay

[Sam Odom]

I also used Betonline for years..they are good and will pay you without the BS

BetOnLine is solid! I have not reloaded there in a long while but if Spiros is willing to do B2B transfers with them then they are OK in my mind.

[Chuck Sims]

Just forget about BetUS. The owners are thieves. Avoid this shit book.

[clonecat]

Betjam is one of the best, fast payments, good lines for baseball.

[RogueScholar]

I'm not sold on either book. BetJam is solid and trustworthy, but they have absolutely pathetic options for people that want to place wagers on anything but the Big 4 North American sports. Very little golf, soccer, tennis, boxing/MMA, NASCAR and many other events. There are so many great books out there that are similarly reputable that you're doing yourself a disservice by selecting a sportsbook that doesn't offer a wide range of things to wager on.

I'm not recommending BetUS either, they're known to be a little shady even though they have a tremendous amounts of depth and breadth in the lines that they post. It's not worthy the stress of hoping that they're treating you fairly.

Try 5Dimes, Matchbook, The Greek and Bookmaker and you'll find a happy medium between the four.

You need to read and not listen to those snakeoil salesmen.You in no way,shape or form getting 100% matching money.Go to their site and read the rules and fine print.

[BestPlay2day]

Not even close, Betjamaica is one of the best and my favorite. Betus might give 100% bonus but you will have to roll it over more and if you do you will have to sweat to get paid. Stick with one of the best and don't worry about bonuses if you are looking long term.

[ScottyWins]

yeah that 100% bonus reeled me in too. 6X rollover plus 60 days hold. AND the worst part is that baseball bets only count as HALF action. i deposited just $300 and was only betting baseball. i had to bet over $7k and wait 60 days to get at the most $150 of real money. definitely not worth it.

a 1k deposit betting only baseball would require 24k of action! good luck staying alive!

don't take bonuses, not worth it. they are offered for a reason.
