new betjam rules for buying points!!??

[clancy]

Can anyone with betjam account check and see if they changed the price for buying points for basketball?

I just noticed that they changed it for my account to 10 cents for the first 2 half points, then to buy 1 1/2 points it is 50 cents, and for 2 points is 70cents, and, ...

When I asked them, they said that it was a rule change, and I just want to make sure that it is not an account specific rule change.

Maybe Dr. Jack can check on that as well.

Thanks in advance.

thanks guys,

I guess they apply rule changes based on betting history!!

This is what they wrote in their response to my question:

"Our line department has implemented these changes to your account based on
your wagering history.

Thank you,
Herman"

This basically means that not everyone gets the same line and/or rules!

So much for being considered reputable and first class offshore sports book.

I don't know if Dr. Jack knows about this and if Cappers Mall will continue to
recommend betjam!

Same odds I get. When you buy points it cost juice. More points, more juice. How many books don't increase juice when you buy points?

Books can and will do whatever they want based on your betting history. They can adjust lines based on your "tendencies" and often do

Not just isolated here. They can also limit your betting wagers if they see you have success at a certain sport

I have now had my college basketball totals limited at one book

It doesn't make you happy, but it's their perogative to do so

I know points cost extra juice, but I was not expecting to all of a sudden increase the juice by 25%, based on my betting history, and leave it the same for others!!

open a new account? get a new book? im sure that after a while of not playing with them they will want you back to get a shot at making their money back...

I cant believe that no one bothered to tell him that it is very seldom (actually never) worth it to buy points in basketball anyway.....

[ZoomVT]

i was going to... but if BJ thought that they should juice him, he must have been fairly successful right? otherwise BJ would have just let him keep buying points and paying juice all the time.

[clancy]

Thanks guys but the issue was not wheather I should buy points or not and if I am successfull in doing it!

Thanks Gerk for the info.
