    Thoughts on Justbet?

    So I noticed Justbet is A rated and accepts Americans, yet I have never seen anyone on the forum mention them.
    Would like to hear opinions on them from people who have played there, thanks.

    They've been around for almost a decade and pay

    I played there two years ago and cashed out twice, both times P2P easily

    They became an A once bookmaker put them under their wing

    In an industry with very few quality outs for Americans, they're one of them.

    no one is telling him to go by these ratings

    this link gives you a look at what was/is happening with the company - nothing more than that really

    Good limits? Same payout options as bookmaker? Are they ok with professionals?

    they are one and the same with bookmaker. exactly the same lines, cashier options, promos, etc. fast payouts, no problems.

    I've been following the lines somewhere and they don't appear to be the same. If they are the same then there would be no reason to join there. Even DSI has the occasional difference.

    I am not under the impression that bookmaker owns justbet. They do share some services and I think some software.

    I believe they were an A book before the Bookmaker affiliation. I think that was the original book I signed up for the Pro program and never had an issue with them. Paid quickly but pretty square lines and bad teaser payouts.

    A lot of these umbrella books have different lines which is good I guess

    As long as backed by bookmaker then safe and good

    I remember fondly justbet, as they were one of my first books. Before joining Bookmaker files, they were independent (I remember BetGuardian was also in the family). The reload bonus were good, but the lines were very though: Simply Pinnacle juiced up. So, I don't agree with gauchy statement of "square lines".

    Now they are just the same as Bookmaker / BetCris (and mostly DSI). You seldom find a line different between them and have the same promotions (Betpoints, small bonuses).

    BTW, sbrodds still give odds for Justbet/BetGuardian as different that Bookmaker lines. As far as I see, those lines are wrong. Where does sbrodds get them? A feed that refuse to die?

    As far as I know, Bookmaker / BetCris are the same book (same owners). They simply have the brand Bookmaker facing USA, and BetCris facing rest of world. So you have to join the correct one. DSI and Justbet are different owners (at least partially) paying Bookmaker to use their facilities and platform.

    wouldn't be my first choice just because their lines are not so good. i'd look at 5Dimes, betonline, and topbet first. but they are competently run, have a good relationship with sbr, and they'll pay you. a safe out.

    Their max payout p2p is $790, justbet is $900. Also betonline doesnt allow point buying on parlays and just bet does, just bet affiliate of bookmaker. Would take justbet over betonline anyday.
