Hello Cheme and all. I know that this thread is no longer about the 3 point buy system but I simply had to ask this question. Well this is the nuts. I've got an account with Bet Jamaica. They are the only book that I know of that allows a 3 point buy for -170. I started doing this system for real money just yesterday and I won several units. When I go in TODAY to make my bets, 3 points now costs me -220 !!!!!!!!!! I called them and they straight out told me that when you win they increase the vig and that if I want to buy the 3 points it's gonna be -220. I asked if they pull this stunt on everybody because my wife who also has a BJ account and HAS NOT bet any 3 point buys checked her account and her 3 point buy was still -170. So they told me that they only do this if somebody wins !!! I ALMOST COULDN'T BELIEVE IT...THESE GUYS ARE AS BAD AS THE FEDERAL RESERVE...IT'S LIKE LEGAL ROBBERY FROM THESE GUYS. Has anybody had the same problem with Bet Jamaica and does anybody know of any other online (accepts US accounts) that offers 3 points for -170? Any suggestions as to possible recourse I may have with BJ or am I just screwed? Thanks very much in advance.
Same thing happened to incomeraise who i met with personally to explain the system and in his case they just disabled the point-buying option. He didn't even win that much but I have the feeling some people have loaded up on the plays and that raised the flag so now anyone that does it gets stopped quick regardless of the amount you play because it is a winning system. Winners are bad for business.

That's even better than me, you went 3-0. For those that can still buy points you know what to do, those of you that got cut-off or have never been able to buy them can check out the plays I'm working on that don't require point-buying.
I'll try to give a posting time in advance according to my schedule on any given day so that people know when to expect the plays. Today I should make all my plays (if any) by 3 p.m. central. If there are no plays I will say so.

Same angle as the original system but without buying points. The system is 114-49-4 68.26% and +292.28 units since the beginning of the season.

Not quite 2-0 but 1-1 in the NBA with the big play hitting and 2-1 in CBB.

Awesome call on the ML bro!

Sorry I wasn't around to answer your question, I really don't know what the numbers were at the time you ran them so I can't answer it now. I'm sure you have seen the Cheme82 memorial thread that TheKevman started in the CBB forum, but just in case or for anyone else interested http://forum.sbrforum.com/ncaa-baske...al-thread.html they discuss the 3-point buy system over there so if you can still do it check them out, if you can't buy points because the book got tired of you beating them then hang around here, I will only make plays with no point-buying involved and will grade everything at -110 from now on so that even if you play at a regular book you can get some action in and maybe even come out ahead when everything's said and done.

Yeah bro, betjam took your buying privileges away but regular plays are still being allowed. The only thing they can do now is kick you out lol. But then you will have a lot of different options since you don't need to buy points anymore.

Thank you for the points and hopefully we finish the night 3-0 since the big play lost already with Loyola getting creamed.
