    bookmaker scam software

    anyone playing at bookmaker notice that everytime you try to confirm a line it moves against you?...it has happened to me literally on every 2nd half wager i tried to place today..the final straw for me was in the 2nd half of the housion game..i parlayed az -4 -115 and houston uab over 35 .5 -115..so i hit confirm and boom i get the message saying az- 120 and houston 36.5 -115!..so not only did the line move a full point in 2 secs but the juice moved to -115..c'mon im not an idiot..so i hit cancel and re did it..bam now the line was az -4 -115 and hous/uab over 35.5 -115 again!!..so i take it again..bam same exact message..its now 36.5 -115..now i figured the game was going over so i took it anyway...but then i go back to check and lo and behold its back to 35.5...2 secs later!!...so i called them up and demanded answers and they gave me a 10 min hold and a runaround and asked me about my internet connection and blah blah..i told the guy im not stupid...i have beem gambling for over 20 yrs so i know what they are doing....he tells me he will talk to the programmers...left it at that...now fast forward to the 2nd half of the notred dame and 2nd half lsu..im on the net and it says lsu +3.5 -115 and notre dame -9.5 -115..i try to confirm bam..more line changes...so i call to put the bet in..while im on the phone with the clerk i get quoted 3.5 -120 and -10 -05....at the same time im refreshing the line on my comp and its telling me 3.5 -115 and 9.5 -115...

    this used to be a legit book...no way a line moves a full point plus juice and then back 2 secs later..impossible..they are "looking into it"..we shall see what they say

    I've heard this complaint with them before. Must be some validity to it.

    That is a huge thing, that gives books enormous amount of advantage they already have over you and then some. Don't forget to fill out a report to complain so justin can look into it.

    i want to believe its legit.. i really do..they should have a system that allows you to confirm a bet at the line you got it at for say 30 secs at least..cause when you call they give you a line, and that line is honored for the whole call..so a 30 sec window is not much to ask for even 20 secs or 10 whatever..they cant be jerking players around like that.

    If it would also move in your favor sometimes it wouldn't seem to be a scam but the fact that it keeps moving to the books favor is a red flag.

    I can't wait for sports betting to be legalized in the US (or at least NJ Nov. 8th) so we don't have to deal with this offshore bullshit

    like i said the best fix for this is to give the player a small window of even 10 secs to confirm the bet..internet limits arent all that high anyway so its not like its going to hurt the book at all.
