Betus Payout

You asked for $550 and they only sent you $450.

yah, but technically the bet was placed after I was paid. which means I was risking money I didn't have. Iwas paid at 845 AM I risked 100 to win 50 dollars last night on a 12pt teaser in hoops.

So I'm ok with that. But its still funny...

A nice trick, which would be typical of them..............happened to a bud of mine a couple of years ago. He wanted to close, & told them he was closing. he had like $2060 balance. They processed him for only 2016, claiming he said 16, not 60. He fought like hell with them, reiterating he said he wanted to close out, but to no avail. They wanted to process him again & charge him another $40. So, he had $44 left in the account, which, in essence, was only $4 as withdrawal fees were $40 then. True story.
Another..............Friend re-upped like $1000 with them after they promised him a rewally sweet bonus, like 60%. He verified it asked more than once, are you sure, 60 % ? After he sent them the $, they wouldn't credit him his bonus. They said the clerk made a mistake, they didn't have 60% bonuses. He wanted a refund, and they wouldn't do it. Instead, they wanted to charge him the $40-50 processing fee to do so.
I had a handful of friends who were with them, me included. I could go on & tell more................but this is enough for now.

But if the payout is true which is confirmed by a floor manager... I'm technically gambling on money I shouldn't have had.

Eitherway it won't matter if the suns don't cover +2 for my monster teaser I laid. There down by 10. JJ must have picked them or something...

I was considering them for a time, get lots of mail from there. But thanks to threads like this, I continue to resist the temptation to send them $.

You gotta watch out that if you ever start beating them up pretty good clip, because that could possibly give them a reason to confiscate your entire balance.

If some of you get time(and you will need alot of it as the last time I looked, their rules were some 15-20 pages long) read their rules. There's a list of reasons as long as your arm giving them the right to cancel bets/confiscate winnings/close you out, etc.

I only play max teasers with them...moving a bball in 12 pts is like free money most nights. I'm already back up to a 100.00 balance with them... I would never keep a LARGE balance with this book, but I'm content to hit 500.00 and rinse/repeat.
