Shady practices in BetDSI.

Optional · 11-17-20, 05:50 AM

Live betting systems are stacked against real time action bettors.

If you are betting on the basis of watching live action and submit bets when you see the play moving one way, this is going to happen at every live platform. Just one of the speed bumps to navigate if betting that way.

From all the books that I have ever used, 5Dimes/BAS has the best live betting platform and sportsbook platform in general. The system accepts live bets almost instantly and if it does not accept, it lets you know immediately that odds changed or line is off the board. Either way you know instantly whether it is accepted or not. Unlike books like Bovada and DSI where the system processes or thinks about the wager for awhile and then eventually rejects the wager which is so frustrating. Give BAS a try and see how you like their live betting system.

Bovada's system is ok. When they say wager successful then it is processed whereas BetDSI says wager successful and 10 minutes later REJECTS THE BET.

Im not watching the game live. I place the bet according to when the odds the come up. It's not like I'm trying to get a bad line or something. I usually wait until there is a pause in the game as well so I am not sure what you are trying to say.

andersonlee · 11-20-20, 04:44 AM

I played with many books and this is the only one that has ever done this.

I'm trying to say getting bets rejected due to action going in your favor is going to feel like it happens often at a lot of books if betting in the way I described.

another problem with live betting is a lot of times the play you are waiting to see on tv already has happened and the book is adjusting the odds knowing the outcome of that play. i noticed that with wager web when i watch redzone.

I stopped using the book and will never go there again. I just want to warn people here not to make any live bets. They place the lives bets on AWAITING CONFIRMATION which they have up to 15 minutes to approve the bet which they can easily see if the odds are in their favor whether to confirm. I placed a few live wagers. The ones that process are usually the ones where the odds go against me and they almost always deny the live wagers that favor me.

It takes a special kind of degen to continue placing wagers after the first one if they'll stall you for 15 minutes. Bookmaker and BetOnline are both under two seconds for me in major sports markets

For sure. I only bet during commercial breaks otherwise guaranteed to get burned.

Thats what I usually do but even during commercial breaks they still place the bet on awaiting confirmation and can delay processing the bet for 15 minutes.

they dont even have the live betting anymore on their sportsbook platform. At least on this end. Anyone else not getting the live betting options screen?

I have both ultra and prime live options

DISTROYA · 11-24-20, 11:34 AM

I'm wondering if they just cut it off my account. Mind you I have barely used it. Got nowhere with customer service online chat Will try again today

CanuckG · 11-24-20, 07:29 PM

BetDSI live is fine if you do it when it's a commercial. Any other time it's hard for it to go through.

DISTROYA · 11-24-20, 08:09 PM

I sent them an email early today asking why I am not seeing the live betting options no response. Just say something dammit

Live chat much better than email support

BetDSI has the worst rollover and bonus restrictions of any book, in my opinion

All in the name of making it difficult to reach the rollover to be in a position to cashout, MyBookie is similar in this regard

andersonlee · 11-27-20, 02:41 PM

Thank you for bringing this up. BIG NEWS: ONCE YOU FUFIL THE BETDSI ROLLOVER YOU HAVE TO WAIT TEN DAYS BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY WITHDRAWAL.

DISTROYA · 11-27-20, 04:19 PM

Well, acting clueless during 1st chat, this time they pulled the bullshit "per management decision" card for not displaying live lines for my account (no fcuking clue why, never have won and sparingly played the live lines).
Also note that, the DSI points that accumulate; if you convert to funds, you have to do some kinda rollover on those too before asking for a withdrawal.
Yes great policy DSI, take bettors hard-earned bet points and even make them roll THAT over a few x's.
Literally no reason or value left here whatsoever to hand, pulling out weekly almost done.
Only good news is that they are processing payouts real fast. Got in less than 30 minutes today

CanuckG · 12-04-20, 04:18 AM

Wait so if you clear the rollover on the bonus funds you need to rollover that amount again??

Bonus funds sit in a bonus wallet until the rollover is completed. It is then transferred to your cash balance and another 1x rollover of that amount is required before withdrawal.

Man that’s a tough rule. When you have reached out about slow paying or balances being removed have they been receptive?

DISTROYA · 12-04-20, 06:31 PM

I was talking about the betpoints you get for wagers, like a casg back program. The instant you convert those, they should be good as cash, but they actually require you to roll that over a few times too, cant get a payout. Imagine a credit card gives cash back, then says, oh, you have to spend 10x your cash back to actually be cash LMFAO

Good to know - have a big balance there almost done rollover so I'll be curious to see how it goes.

DISTROYA · 12-05-20, 02:23 PM

Must say, Ive never (in 2-3 years) had payout issue, been slow paid, or funds taken out.
They have actually paid lightning fast, same day sometimes even same hour, via BTC
Have max 5000/week, not much left there so not an issue for me.
They were a really nice out with nice lines and different formats/platforms, but they have standardized and lines have no value and look like shit/other books now.
