that was expected with the company most likely tripling in size overnight.
one of the downfalls of the betjam and greek players going to the heritage is it hurts the existing Heritage players that already used the book daily.
to be honest i wish it would have never happened.

They used to do these twice a month $500 max now it looks like once a month at $300 max. Also was at 7% juice now 8%. Heritage going from a great book to a very good book. Still Heritage and 5Dimes (reduced juice) are still the best bets in the industry.

Agreed...but $300 is still better than nothing. And i think that come the middle of football season, they may still do it more than once a month.

Me too. Nothing gained from it. Juice went from -107 to -108 and this sweet promo was cut to 60% value.
Of course it was hard to maintain, but would it be too much to ask that Heritage members from before the change still get the old deal(s)?

I'm sure that most of the Greek/Jam players wished they were still where they were too.Everybody that pisses and moans about what specials they lost should understand that us Greek/Jam players lost a shitload too.

spot on.
Heritage will become like every other craptastic oversized book. They lost everything they had going for them with the country club feel of playing there.

thats not my point.
i used both of those books as well daily and will really miss both of them.
betjam allowed some very nice +ev wagers during football season that all other A+ books do not allow

Still a great book, but yes, that super special element may be gone. And it can be argued that they risked losing exactly what made them different from all others. Will that happen? I hope not. Yet it's hard not to notice a change in attention to detail. Anyway, they're still adjusting. The new members seem happy, so that was taken care of. Give it another month to see if they can keep the old members as happy as they were before. They've earned a lot of credit over time, so give them some credit back during this big transition.

My main concern is are they going to have enough staff to handle the halftime cancelations? It was difficult a few times last year with long hold times. As far as the drop to $300, it's still a free shot. I am also very thankful for all the Heritage perks.

They lost the personal touch. Guys like Murphy and John were very good with customers, and you got the feeling they knew you, and took care of you... all these new clerks have no idea who the fukk we are, and just go by the book.

Sure, but there are some of us who expressed concern about taking on all those Greek players, and we were told that nothing would change and that it would be business as usual. Nothing may have changed, but I just saw the juice go from -107 to -108 and their best promo cut to 60%. Also, emails that always received a quick response are suddenly ignored. So things have changed already. And so far not one of those changes has been positive. They're still good. That's not the point. The point is that they carved out such a special spot for themselves that it may not be possible to maintain that unusually high level with all these new members. Too late now, but really wish some other book had taken over those Greek accounts. Any book but Heritage...

yes and you can also hedge your bet with a halftime line and try to middle it, hit that twice last year.

Didn't hear about that as I haven't received my newsletter yet. You're right, that would be a great option.

Hey BigDaddy,
May I ask you please for some examples of those good plays from Betjam? Here or PM me please.
I want to learn and also I think I can find them for you elsewhere W/a high rated book.
Thanks man
