BetUS Warning (Video)

[Mybologne]

crackerjack books i tell ya!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Bill Dozer]

BetUs was built on not paying big winners and has been on the blacklist for the majority of its time in operation.
They made many improvements in CS and agreed to reverse decisions at the suggestion of SBR. They made it up to C status in January. We wanted to give them a chance to do the right thing with these stiff jobs, and as a C book sometimes does, fix their wrong. Justin worked hard for these last BetUs players but looks like they are headed back to the black list this week. For the player's sake, maybe they will want this resolved going into Sept. marketing season. We'll keep trying.

thanks for the video Justin

[dimon]

If you beat them long-term, you're not recreational. They will toss you, politely though.

Will 5Dimes pay though, if you go from "recriational" to professional?

As for BetUs Justin pointed they were doing fine last year or two...pay ontime and all...I did not have issues with them, however always felt nervious to have balance larger 1-2K in there...but as they say you need to "diversfify"...great info here, really appreciated, it seems that only players who took bonus at sportsbook have problems...but still time to move on

[Lo$t]

Thanks for headsup Justin. Hopefully you oiled that squeeky chair of yours for this vid.

[Chuck Sims]

Once a thief, always a thief.

Downgrade these crooks before anyone else gets fleeced.

[polskboy]

"recreational players" = losers??????that your think??

good luck players

[BigDaddy]

all i ask that in the next 6-12 months or ever for that matter please don't start a thread where they are improving

like chuck said above

"Once a thief, always a thief"

this really is not shocking news.

thank you

[JerseyShop101]

How do you have only 3 posts yet 87 points?

I haven't got a clue....... I didn't even realise I had them until you pointed them out.

EDIT - Taken a look at the merchandise.......hope I don't get those points taken away I really want a SBR Mug!

Your now at 4 posts in almost a year!

Let's work on that post count....

Your only averaging 0.011 posts per day

Even ghosts have a higher average than that.

[sosoon]

Great wook here ! I'll never use this bookie

[M@ximo]

....

know.., i think we must thank Justin7 to give us all the info and face the camera in order to inform all us readers about the exact issues against BetUS... thats the way you show people that something is really wrong...

Thanks Justin7 for all the info

[barza01]

Fvck BETUS...you know it's going to be a shady operation when a scumbag like John Morrison is associated with them! If you have any $$$$ in that bookie I'd withdraw right NOW!!

[CrimsonQueen]

Almost every book has the recreational players only clause... 5 Dimes, The Greek, DSI, etc.... I HATE that phrase... it's the single scariest clause ever written.

"Oh, you finally won reallllly big after years of losing and want to cash out a tiny profit? Sooorry. Recreational players only."

[trixtrix]

hey justin, how many coke-zeros do i need to buy you for you to do a sbr vid on wagerweb?

[Justin7]

Haha. I wouldn't play there either, but I don't think they are as big a threat. BetUS has a lot more marketing and more players. Although I still get spam from WW.

Bodog is ok though, right?

[davidchong]

good luck all

good luck players

[Justin7]

Bodog is ok though, right?

I think so. I've had only a few disputes with them. In the one time we actually disagreed on a gray area, they paid the player based on our recommendation. Complaints against them are rare, and they want to do the right thing. I'd have no trouble keeping a balance there for as long as they want to let me play.

[Hoja Verdes]

This is what never ceases to amaze me:

With all 4 instances Justin mentions in the video, every dispute is over CHUMP CHANGE. This is a multi-million dollar company, can we all agree on that? So why on god's green earth are they stealing sums of money like $1350 from players, and then when confronted by SBR, not giving in and doing the right thing? Justin estimates that for every one unresolved dispute SBR handles, there are 10 more that they never hear about. On that same note, I'd argue that for every one dollar BetUS (or any other book) steals from a player, they cost themselves at least ten times that amount in lost deposits from people scared away by such shady dealings.

EARTH TO BETUS...EARTH TO BETUS...are you there??? While you are busy stealing a few grand here and there from guys that hit loose lines here and there, the bad publicity is costing you hundreds of thousands of dollars in lost revenue!!!

I thought these videos would be about people getting large sums of money (5-6 figures) stolen. I'm baffled that these idiots wouldn't give in when SBR goes to bat for a player. Even if the company directive is: "If SBR gets involved, cave in and do the right thing....if SBR is not involved, rob 'em f'n blind"....at least that would keep most people from ever hearing about their shenanigans.

HELLOOOO? MCFLY????

[skrtelfan]

They ripped me off for something ridiculous like a $180 free play bonus, and given their restrictive rules about using free play bonuses, a $180 free play bonus there is only worth about $100.

[Ace_of_Spades]

Great videos Justin.

[statnerds]

the bigger the bonus, the more shady the book

i played there once and lost

re-upped for 50% bonus

won

took 27 days to get paid

27

never went back

BetUS.com Launches Single Largest Available Payout In the History of Sports Wagering

*

BetUS.com announced today the $5 Million Parlay, the single largest available payout in the history of sports wagering. *

Launched to coincide with kickoff of the NFL football season, players are required to pick 22 games (sides or totals) against the spread from both college and pro football. A $25 wager pays out an even $5 Million.* *

The $5 Million Parlay is open to all players, and can be played as many times as the players desire.*

�This is a huge opportunity for everyone to take a shot at the good life,� said Mike Foreman, Marketing Director for BetUS.com. �It�s kind of a lottery for sports fans�only with much better odds than you�ll ever get from your local government.� *

Customers not interested in betting $25 for a chance at $5 million, can also �take a crack at $1 Million with a bet of only $5,� according to Foreman, noting that both options are unmatched in the industry today.*

BetUS.com, in its eleventh year of operation, also recently announced former Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura as a new spokesperson.*

�We would like nothing better than seeing one of our loyal players win $5 million. I hope to hand deliver some rather large checks to our players,� said Foreman. �Every football season you can feel the energy rising, and this is something that should amp everyone up that much more.�

[Justin7]

On the bright side, BetUS has give the player his $1350 in Freeplay winnings back, which were earlier confiscated due to impossible rollover (when they closed his account).

[trixtrix]

awesome, true payout assuming -110 lines for 22 games on a 25$ wager is 38 million
