yes no maybe?

Based on the past behaviour of this book, I would suggest: "NO"

It's a Russian roulette type situation. There are many who play at BetUS and never have a problem(Including myself in my young and foolish years), but this site (and others) have a multitude of threads detailing negative experiences with this sportsbook.

While betus is legit and they have paid me several times, I really prefer greek, betjm. I do not usually take bonuses because of the rollover requirement.

Why should Canadians be surprised? Some books don't want friction with the Canadian gov't for one reason or another. Maybe they are operating on Indian land within Canada, or using the Canadian banking system, or payment processor based in Canada...

checks from betus come from kahnawake gaming so yes their bank is in Canada.

Kahnawake is the Indian reserve. They're being used as a safe haven by many gaming sites. No surprise here.
