    Another horseshit SBR "B+" book - Justbet
    Deposited there for a bonus. Made one play, limits slashed. That's nothing new. But get this, they increased juice on me too.

    How is upping the juice any different than stealing funds from the player's account?

    Stay away from these fukks, I had a bad feeling the moment I deposited.

    Its completely ridiculous that SBR thinks -105 is a "promotion" or anything to that effect.

    Altering the juice is blatant theft.

      Signed up here a little while ago, but have not bothered depositing funds after reading about players who were being totally mucked about, being moved to 20 cent dodgy lines/crap odds and being very limited in bet size after only a couple of wagers. Steer clear, there are much better books around.

        Border Gadgie,

        Interesting that the SBR page on Justbet has nothing about any of this, except that they've had some DOS attacks.

        Guys, you might as well throw your money in the garbage rather than deposit at Justbet or Badlands etc.

          I've got money in justbet too and I'm not thrilled with the book either.

            $500 MLB sides and total limits, $100 dollar 1st 5 inning limits

            .10 cent lines are only good up until -150 and than they mysteriously turn into a .15 cent line

            How can a book have $500 max limits on MLB sides and totals??????

              As long as the check clears, SBR will keep the SHIT book Justbet at a solid B+.

                I've never had more than $250 there.

                    They don't like booking people looking for an edge but they pay promptly with zero hassle.

                      What would you expect to see when you posted this here today? Going back well before VIP and bet365 there have always been books aggressively looking for rec players or pure gamblers only... Different breed of book with higher casino volume. Justbet limits are about as low as they get but they do always pay and know what they can handle. With their limited offerings they might be closer to B than B+ but youv'e never seen a player cheated or go unpaid.

                      If you didn't get somethign that was advertised or a deal wasn't honored we'd want to inquire on your behalf.

                        Bill, they might have paid all players but I believe they have cheated with the bait and switch. I too joined because of the 10 cent lines only to have them quickly changed to 20 cent lines with a cut in limits. In adition to that, they stopped allowing Freeplays on basetball money lines. I am more likely to play with a D rated book than your B+ Just Bet

                          They never used to be this bad for slashing limits.

                          Their limits were never very high ($500), but JustBet, Guardian, Badlands, and the rest of the sister books used to let most everyone, including most of the sharper players, bet the $500 max.

                          I think it was a year or two ago that they started changing that policy, and slashing limits much lower than the $500 default max.

                            Mathy, it is probably best to just forfeit the bonus and get those funds out. Rollover will take too long at this bubble gum shop.

                              Agreed, want to eat the fees and bail immediately.

                              Dozer, limits are one thing. But changing the juice once the player's deposited is just as bad as directly confiscating money from the player's account.

                                    I have a Justbet baseball hat and even that's pretty shitty. I only wear it when I want to make an ass out of myself.

                                          Rec players, pure gamblers, aka 3 team parlays, favs & over only clientele are one thing, but changing it all after one bet is fairly criminal. If they have low limits, they have low limits, but still not willing to take a bet at $500?

                                          If you're gonna advertise a special, take a bet at least--you can't have it both ways.

                                          Honor the special and take the bets on it and then pay. If you want to limit the player, at least let him play through the rollover.

                                          Very unfair, misleading and dishonest on Justbet's part imo.

                                                    books usually wait till you have a few bets under your belt to slash limits. but after one game thats very odd.

                                                      Changing the juice does seem akin to bait-and-switch, but unless somebody files a complaint what do you expect SBR to do? It seems there's a lot of talk but nobody has stepped up and asked them to look into it...

                                                          This group [Justbet, Guardian, Badlands] is what it is. Ultimate safe rec player shops. Fact is rec shops are not too hard to beat at least for a few bucks, with a bit of patience. Seems to me guys on the forums know or should know that. Never experienced any juice changes myself but limits are for sure low. Checks however are hassle free, fast and free. Rec books need to be viewed as only a compliment to your arsenal of outs.

                                                          This group reminds me of VIP and Gameday when they were available to us. Those shops were easy to beat and just paid like a friggin' machine while getting absolutely no love on the forums.

                                                            paying is the first priority. win and don't get your cash is the worst.

                                                              You obviously don't have an account with them.

                                                              I have never seen a rec book tail pinnacles line moves so tightly and with high juice and max wagers of $500 or less it is going to take a hell of a lot of patience to ever earn any cash here.

                                                                  How is upping the juice any different than stealing funds from the player's account?
