    Default Bet Jamaica - Bet delay

    Place a wager...15 second delay while they think about it...bet denied...line moves...rinse...repeat. Anyone else get put on bet delays there? This is the only A+ rated book that does this.

    that happens, lots of time lines move at the same time you are entering a bet and you have to replace your bet.

    Pinnacle moves line frequently as they are a reduced juice book, unfortunately that's why u need quick fingers

    Happens often enough, especially close to the start of a game.

    DSI pulls the exact same tactic.

    wish my delay there was only 15 secs--if you are good and stay, it goes to 25

    All rec books boot/delay/cut limits and BetJamaica is definitely a rec book. They're A+ because of their reliability, not their tolerance of sharp action.

    Would you get any delay if you don't bet sharp picks or steam picks?

    rec. book, i got it too but a bit longer.
    That is fine thou as they didn't cut my limits, a delay is really legitimate for a book that isn't catered towards sharp action. And at least in my case there was a reason why i got on delay.

    What are you guys betting that gets you delayed? Would you get delays if you bet NFL, NBA games like 15 minutes before the game start? Or are you guys betting those other sports?

    Mine has been on delay for years there. Still a good out to have, even with reduced limits.

    I arbed there long ago...so i took what i could get usually, in my young greed, and have no reason to complain ^^ Them not cutting my limits is actually surprising, Betjam won't give ppl the boot i don't think so.

    almost all books will put you on delay if you bet ahead of their line moves.

    That's the method they use. 15 second delay; then 25 or so. As well, if you're at this stage you should expect some type of wager limitation, probably in the props section.....

    Worst delay i ever saw was the "delay of death" from BOL. the page would go white and you get a cup of coffee, sandwich and take a dump, come back just in time to see that the line had moved. It was the long goodbye.
