A funny thing... All of the MLB dogs at BetJamaica have a +1.5 run line, except Detroit, which has a -1.5 run line.  You'd have to get a +1.5 run line through the reverse run line options.  How janky is that?

Wait detroit fav  -1.5 vs boston today

how did u guys get +1.5

Now I understand...Thx Mikey

So do I still bet on Detroit tmr or no cuz that lost any my sportsbook had them fav.

Yes, this is supposed to be one of those "blowout" wins by Baltimore. 

The change to this new v2.0 system is that you want to increase your stake on the [B] level when these 2 criteria are met:

1. The team you’re betting on is playing at home.

2. The [A] bet that you made resulted in your team losing by 3 or more points.

Similarly, you want to increase your stake on the [C] level when these 2 criteria are met:

1. The team you’re betting on is playing at home.

2. The [B] bet that you made resulted in your team losing by 3 or more points.

I got Balt at -165 early yesterday morning and Det at -135.  This is at BetUS.  I am registered under the JM promo code.

As I explained in an earlier post on a different thread, at BetUS, JM people are placed into their own betting pool.  The odds in this pool start out the same as the line at the rest of BetUS.  However, the JM betting pool lines run independently from the rest of BetUS.  The results of this is that the JM system picks start running against the JM people as all the action tends to be on the JM picks.

This post is not intended to be a defense of anything or a justification.  I simply post this to let people know what is going on.  As a member of the JM betting pool at BetUS, of course I am very unhappy with the situation.

Wow!  Thanks for the tip!  I never thought of it.

Problem is, because I took the bait, I mean the bonus, I can't move (cash out) until I play through the required minimum wagers. As soon as I can get free of BetUS, I'm gone--if I have any money left.

Whoa whoa whoa man........
Check it... What's done is done...
But you got to get out asap......
This is what I did
I opened an account at BetUS and shortly after closed it out with no problems.
DON'T TAKE THE BONUS
At one point JM wouldn't give you his picks until you opened an account with them if I recall
Just use a different sportsbook
You will get better spreads

DON'T BELIEVE ME ASK LIPPSMAN

He had a great post showing how BETUS shaves spreads in NBA just enough against JM games where it effects your win / loss outcome and pending how you wager if you don't follow through correctly then give up. And they love that from all the amateurs
MLB is also sucks sometimes as in yesterday
Bos was the fav yet had the +1.5/ line
Det was the dog and had the -1.5/ line
Det opened as a dog but the books know what's going on
Only you would of yesterday if you got Det at +1.5/ alt. line

As soon as everyone can get out of BETUS
There is also wide spread payout problems
There are too many better books out there

Such as:
Diamond
Betjamaica
5Dimes
Bookmaker
Wagerweb
Matchbook
Pinnacle     (non-usa)

I am sure other books are good too.
Anyway never take a bonus - it only locks you in to play with them
Have $$$ in different accounts to shop the best spread or line
Good luck man

Yesterday bet with Detroit(Monday), I use 5 sites BetJam,TheGreek,Wsex,5Dimes, and Linesmaker and NONE of them had Detroit +1.5

5dimes had a +1.5 as an alternate line at -200

SO WILL

So with Detroit going down... should we look for an Alt line possible? +2½ since they are playing against Beckett?

 

what I liked to do was wait for the betus line to get so blown out that i would play the opposite of morrison at betus and then play morrison's picks at my local bookie or another website. that way i was getting a free $5-$10 margin and if the morrison's pick one i was getting the money out of the betus account for free. no bonus rollovers and no withdrawel fees.
