(beware of sportsbooks) its that time of the year

BEANTOWNJIM · Dec 9, 2008

boys we have to be carefull of our hard earned money this time of the year and be very carefull of the sportsbook we support.

as we have learned in the past once football season winds down the smaller sportsbooks tend to fold and steal your money.be carefull now of big bonuses and deals that look to good to be true.

boys here is my list of questionable sportsbooks that i would keep an eye on and never support.this is a warning fellas i would hate to see anybody get ripped off.

boys i have been around this business for a long time so i am not just talking out my arse.

boys here are the sportsbooks i would never use and would highly recomend you dont either if you dont want to lose your money.

#3 bet atlas- they offer you the world seem like a mickey mouse sportsbook i dont know one person playing at this place.usually if nobody is talking about a sportsbook with a positive experience you better be carefull

#2 bet 911- i think the name says it all you better call 911 for help when they go under and you are trying to retrieve your money.boys the football season is winding down and books will be folding with your funds

#1 bet first class-this f-cking sh-t sportsbook will be lucky to make it to the superbowl with lenny from cascade running the show from the back room.boys i would be very carefull sending any money to these crooks.any owner who comes into a forum and threatens a poster mainly myself is a dead sportsbook they dont have any reputation they are dangerous.

i think they named a song after bet first class (come on take the money and run) boys (bet first class) is on my very dangerous list this book will be robbing you pretty soon and lenny from cascade will get another shot at stealing money offshore.

boys here is a list of beantownjims most dangerous sportsbooks once the football playoffs begin you better take out your money and run.remember boys you have been warned.

beantownjims recomend sportsbooks

5 dimes
bet phoenix
bet jamaica

slim pickens fellas but i only play at safe sportsbooks beantownjim has never got his money stolen offshore and i dont want to start this year.

BTJ,

Add Matchbook and Olympic to the recommended list.

BEANTOWNJIM · Dec 9, 2008

i might reconsider bet atlas since they have been around for a while but i would still never recomend them they offer you nothing.no free payouts, no reduced juice,they dont have what i want but i guess they will still be around next year.

bet first class is high on the warning list since they have lenny from cascade sportsbook as a silent partner.this place is definitly on the watch list.

BEANTOWNJIM · Dec 9, 2008

i never liked olympic they are gougers.

no free payouts
20 cent baseball lines
-110 or more on all football games and totals i can get -105 at 5 dimes
plus the greek charges like 50 dollars for a payout you get nothing for nothing with spiro.

i would never recomend olympic

matchbook i have looked at but its to much paper work for me i like set lines i dont like lines that change every 2 seconds according to where the action is going.

excellent reminder...boks know the dead season is just around the corner and with playoff games and xmas bonus money they have a chance to pull in alot of cash.

as far as books to avoid i would add looselines and oddsmaker to the list.

a nice bonus doesnt always mean unstable book...betphoenix has been running great offers, ditto skybook and bokmaker...i would trust all of them. re thegrek/olympic...yes they are harder to deposit to and have high payout fees..but you will get paid and paid quickly...

Bean, with a statement like that, why odnt you list at least 5 books that closed after the time you said, just 5 please.

I don't know why anyone would play with a non A rated book. If people are foolish enough to give money to books with ratings of C- or anything around there they can't complain if they don't get paid. It's not hard to search around and find ratings for all these books.

5dimes, pinnacle, thegreek, betjam, olympic and matchbook. I really don't see any need to play with any book outside of these six. Pinnacle should be used by everyone that can (I realize USA guys can't), and I would say 5dimes is the best option for anyone that lives in the states. Fantastic book

wrong wrong worong.. I use them bet atlas and they are a -107 shop in the major sports..some things to like.

I also dont know a single person who uses that gambling 911 or who has even ever quoted a line from that shop...

I just joined betfirstclass lightly, so far fun but I lost my cash s it turns out...some risk there but some things to like...
but major funds should be in bookmaker, betjam, betmania (phoenix), matchbook. pig/legendz....

BET FIRST CLASS IS BEING RUN BY A KNOWN THIEF LENNY FROM CASCADE SPORTSBOOK STAY AWAY FROM THIS CORRUPT SPORTSBOOK.

BET FIRST CLASS WILL BE THE FIRST TO GO UNDER AFTER FOOTBALL SEASON IF YOU ARE FOOLISH ENOUGH TO SEND THESE THIEVES YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY GOOD LUCK YOU GET WHAT YOU DESERVE.

I GAREE I ALWAYS PLAY AT THE BIG NAMES AND I GUESS 5 DIMES HAS BEEN GOOD.I COLLECTED 3 CHECKS AND NEVER HAD A PROBLEM AND THE CHECKS WERE FREE.ONE FREE PAYOUT PER MONTH FED EX GREAT DEAL AT 5 DIMES.

I DONT LIKE PAYING OURAGOUS FEES TO COLLECT MONEY THIS IS THE MAIN REASON I DONT PLAY AT OLYMPIC ANYMORE.:finger:
