BetDSI Sportsbook: SBRforum poster wins $150,000 parlayAn SBRforum poster has won a life-changing parlay at
BetDSI Sportsbook (SBR rating A+). The lucky sports bettor placed a seven team, NFL and MLB parlay which included moneylines and pointspreads. The win netted the player $150,000!
SBR: Congratulations on your awesome score! Can you tell us a little bit about your state of mind when you made the seven-team parlay? Was this a normal bet for you, did you place straight wagers on any of the teams? Were you "chasing" as they call it when making this wager?
Winning poster: I wasn't chasing. $5,000 is less than 2% of my bankroll. I do place straight bets once in a while.Read the rest of the interview here

BetUs (SBR rating D) management agrees to take copy-cat site, PlayDSI.com off-line. Play
DSI impersonates A- rated
Diamond Sportsbook International (bet
DSI.eu). The website was tailor made to look like the real
DSI, which has since removed its diamond graphic and now lists the brand name simply as, Diamond Sportsbook.
BetUs management tells SBR that this is what is left from previous marketing teams and will be removed shortly. Last year the BetUs marketing department removed blog-style websites that linked words such as "
Bill Dozer" and "
SportsbookReview" to the sportsbook’s website.
