    bet island Be Careful!

    they said their juice was 10 percent but im betting games where it's 15. Be careful when dealing with this company. Their lines are terrible. Don't let you parlay ML on most games or bet ML on the easy games. No wonder they got a C rating with sbr. Please be careful before you deposit, they are really tricky. They got me with 100 percent bonus but they pulled a tricky stunt, where you can only get the deposit if you bet a winning wager. Terrible sportsbook, I m gonna withdraw once i hit my rollover.

    Huh? Their juice is -110. And you probably shouldnt be gambling if you need to parlay huge favorites on the ML .

    I think this is the first guy in the whole forum to have the nerve to have anything bad to say about betislands. GL with your betting OP if u don't like Betislands i don't know what to say than. And there bonus is automatically added on your account as a freeplay. They have reduced juice on football mon-fri. U talkin about the same place here and don't feel bad when people read this and just completely mash u because evryone knows they are a standup shop.

    He's also pissed that the bonus was a freeplay bonus, and not a straight cash bonus. These day's that's the industry standard.

    You're showing yourself to be a newbie dnange, that's fine, but you might want to tone it down and lurk a little and try again with another username. Notice that absolutely nobody in this thread supports you, and SBR posters will jump down a bookie's throat on every nit.

    He is probably trying to parlay team totals where the juice is a standard -115 - either way, OP is a moron. Nothing to see here, move along.

    BetIslands has been A+ for me. Best CS and fastest w/d's I've ever experienced offshore.

    Why wouldn't you want to parlay ML -400 and above? Why would u want to defend of a betting site like that. So they can run off with your money? I thought you guys were smart enough to realize what i was talking about. I guess not, bunch of rookies. Who the hell cares when u get paid out quick when u get shitty lines to play with. I made a wager on college fb they charged me 230/200. That's -115 when they promised -110. wth is that all about?

    There is a reason why they don't allow you to do that because people like me are making a killing off of it and all you guys lose thousands weekly to BI lol . END OF STORY

    Well i have no need to even say much on this OP, u have just shown everyone what u really know. I don't think anyone here will side with u on this, everyone knows Betislands is a standup book and is a good book, and now everyone knows that your probably just a fool and an idiot.

    Its because under their new management, they haven't been in business long enough to have an A rating. After some time, they will receive an A rating because they have acted like a top notch book from day 1 and all of us that use them are satisfied customers.

    Yeah. I noticed that myself. They have been a good book. I ask a lot of questions. They answer them. I wish I could withdraw more than 6 k a week. But overall. They are a good book. I'll be glad when I get my first 5 k check.

    No the OP is talking about -3000 mls and such, like a Bama ML vs Tulane, what he fails to realize is BI is actually doing him a favor because these high prices offer no value to one's parlay but can do you in... EX: Oklahoma this week.

    As for tennis pars, same feeling as above, BI doing us a favor actually by not allowing them. Big MLs present little to no value and at least one big fav always drops in tennis on a daily basis.
