    I was paid to post a fake book review and now regret it.

    I’ve been a member here for over a decade and and I’ve noticed things throughout the years, but have never said anything.

    For example, the have an “in game” wagering where they assign a wagering rep to winning gamblers account to fool them. They have fake scores to make you wager on the team, and then as soon as you confirm the wager, the score changes and you realized that it is not the official score and they just fooled you into betting it. I’ve complained about it and have had some wagers refunded due to their errors, but I wanted to share this with people so you are aware of their deceitful BS.

    Also, I won over $25k within the last 2 weeks so they have lowered my live wagering and in game and also book wagers to $100 per bet. I’ve complained to management several times but most of them idiots don’t understand English and reply with the most broken English, and generic response. It’s like they don’t even read what we say but respond back with absolute nonsensical garbage and jibberish.

    These morons asked me to talk about how great they are for a $100 free play, but I can’t delete that post. They aren’t good people. They are only an “honest” book when you lose consistently.

    This will be the last time I bet there, or ever make a post about those worthless idiots.

    You are always watching the games you live bet on? It's basically impossible to do that on NFL Sundays, college football Saturdays, March Madness or the first couple days of majors in tennis.

    To the OP:

    You shouldn't rely on the sites scores. Use a site like Espn for boxscore watching.

    Foreign basketball leagues mostly. You see the score abd make a bet, then the score changes and then you go onto FlashScore.com and see the score was way different than what you wagered on. It’s a common issue with gamblers but youwager has spotted that and preyed on people consistently because of it. I’m not saying what I do is smart and right, but the fact that they have done this multiple times when you have been a member over a decade is incredibly deceitful, and I’m just merely warning good members at the SBR forum to watch out for this so they don’t fall victim like I did.

    But you are absolutely right 👍

    So you lost the $25k? You won’t get any sympathy from your previous post, that’s for sure.

    I know, you’re right also. But it’s those moments when you get that “thrill” into thinking it’s the right bet to make, then you find out that you’ve been deceived. It’s horrible that they purposely play this game on good clients, or, any clients in general.

    But again, you are 100% right. It’s all down to me. I’m just here warning people that these aren’t good humans running “the show”

    I did. But money isn’t really important. Trust is very important. It shows youwager is struggling financially to consistently give out live scores and then change them after you bet. It shows they are either struggling financially, or just being deceitful. You can decide which one.

    My bigger bets i do not really do live but i do hate it when you click on a bet and it changes to something worse then when you exit and go back it magically goes back to the line it was before you were going to bet it.

    You have just triggered another issue. When you make a live bet and then it shows the screen as an “error”, and then you log in and log out and your money is still there. But then within 5 mins the money is taken out and the bet was placed, and of course it’s a loss. It’s happened before when a bet wins and they don’t take the money out with the exact SAME situation that’s happened. It’s seriously conniving and deceitful.

    The worst is when you complain to wagering and they send you to 5 different people who claim they can help but don’t understand a lick of English. And of course they end up wasting and hour of your time and then posting “wagering rules” of why they can’t be held liable for stuff like that. Such a scam. They have only done this recently. I believe they are having financial hardship otherwise why would they do this?

    I live bet sometimes in the beginning after i deposit and switch to regular betting hoping to get the total up a bit . They always offer bonuses sometimes good i guess but the one thing i hate is unless it is a cash bonus they limit me to a $300 bet on a Free Play. No other book i play at limits me. I have not cashed out there at all this year just GTbets and Heritage been a tough year but in the past i have gotten withdraws from them. I blocked both YW and BP because the casinos were so damn rigged. So i just sportsbet there now.

    LOL. Ken is an absolute idiot. They’re still the same now just so you know. You can complain with an intelligent message and they response back with a broken English of an answer that leads no where. I believe they purposely do this. Imagine us getting an email from BkofAma or similar branches with a response like that 🤣🤣🤣

    I see two complaints in this thread:

    1. OP lost money because he wasn't watching the actual game while live betting (LOL).

    2. OP was limited and they won't listen to his requests to reverse the limits (LOL).

    I'm not the biggest fan of YouWager, but these would be 2 reasons to complain about almost any sportsbook.

    Lets talk about your personal life. Are you still an overweight loser who has nobody? The only time on this earth where you get respect and feel like a “man” is on here. Otherwise you’re just an outspoken worthless loser in real life.

    Keep feeding your ego thats non existent in this real world 👌

    No issues with Youwager. They aren't big time and they don't pretend to be. But they have been reasonable with me in the past. I don't live bet pretty much ever, though. So cant comment on that. But I do know when I've checked lines it was like $300 max even for major sports, so I just don't think their live offerings are very good.

    And my point was that what you're trying to "warn" people about are 2 gigantic nothing-burgers.

    "Watch a live feed of the game you've in-game betting" and "sportsbooks limit players" are not exactly breaking news headlines.

    YouWager has me on .01 limits (yes 1 cent) on all totals in all full game sports except NFL, and all sides and totals in 2nd halves in all sports except NFL.

    They will let me bet regular limits on some stuff.

    They seem to limit you on anything you beat them in and let the other stuff stay the same which is different than most other books who usually just limit you across the board in every sport.

    Sucks as you were probably beating them in live wagering.

    Not a scam like the title says, but you'll just have to find a better book.

    I missed that part of his OP. That's not a good look for YouWager (not a good look for OP either). A bunch of people called him out in that other thread, including myself, because the post was very suspicious and there were a rash of posts like that around that time. Good to get confirmation that we weren't just being paranoid.

    Sportsbooks shouldn't bribe players or give them ultimatums to give fake positive reviews. Their business should do the talking: a wide variety of lines, good odds, fast / accurate payouts, solid promotions, etc. Players will come.

    I read that and although he was over the top i did not think YW or BP are garbage books. I mean i have not been limited so far and have been paid in the past and others seem to have always been paid. So i guess overexaggerating for a $100 FP i can forgive if someone really needed the $100

    I am trying to think if i ever did anything like that i know i have been offered i think i did for betmayor way back but i only spoke the truth on the good and the bad . At the time i had cashed out like $15000 from them and had great bonuses . So i said that. There were a couple minuses i said too. They were a newer book i made that clear too.

    It's not the books responsibility to provide scores for games, you should know the score of you are wagering live.

    A child could just check scores on their phones the id a that the book would deliberately give bad scores to winning bettors is a dumb conspiracy theory. More likely their live wagering isn't that good

    The edge is taking a team that you think is going to win as a dog because the other team has a lead. Are you ok with just making live bets on one game for the entire NFL timeslot? That seems like such a waste when there's 8 other games being played at the same time. I usually concentrate on two games but I generally know what's happening in the other games by boxscore watching and looking at the play by play info. And if the odds are right, then I'll bet it without actually watching it.

    I believe that Youwager offers all their players a FP for a positive review on any forum. They offered me a $25 FP right after I created my account. And in that situation, it's not really a fake positive review as you likely hadn't experienced anything bad thus far. I didn't do it but I likely would've written about my experiences for a $100 FP.

    Maybe for $1000 i would do it

    I was lost and confused. My life had no meaning . Then i fell down a manhole. While i was clinging onto life i saw God. He floated above me and said One single word. Youwager and Betpop .

    I was then transported back to the living. I looked online and found that Youwager was a sportsbook. I had deposited at books before. But never had there been a greater experience then when i deposited at Youwager.

    They offered me a 40% Free play. But i would have deposited without it. Because there was Love here. I went onto their site and i remember as soon as i did someone outside screamed. When i ran outside there was a woman crying that her dead baby was resurrected that had died 5 years prior. I knew Youwager had made this possible because he was wearing a Youwager hat.

    I was so happy i could not wait to get back inside and onto Youwagers website. Out of nowhere sitting on my chair was a penguin. I LOVE penguins they walk so funny. He just kept saying Betpop as he waddled around the room.

    Then i hit a $10 bet. And my head exploded. But i did not die. You HAVE to play here. You HAVE to live. You HAVE to love .
