    BetUs has me pegged!

    I had noticed that Betus adjusts lines to my betting style, but lately it has been getting crazy. Last night I was set to play the Jazz-4, as it was nearly everywhere (4.5 tops) and when I logged in, the line changed to -6! On Sunday, the Jets line was -4.5 nearly everywhere (including Betus). That is, until I logged in and it was -6.5. Needless to say any line was a loser there, but I was very surprised that they would move a line 2 pts, especially when I can buy up 1 pt to get on a key number. I always check the lines before logging in so I can see what they inflate. Since I play quite a bit of team totals, I notice that they often juice up 2ndh team totals on me. Grabbed an over on a line at -13.5-110 elsewhere, because they had it 14-125!

    I have used this in my favor, like when the had the Texans+6.5 vs Indy when everywhere else it was 4. Still it seems as if they do have a pretty solid grasp on my betting style, as more often that not the line is not in my favor. They tend to jack up NBA totals on me as well, since I do play them often. Just another reason why it pays to have multiple books. Anyone else notice a jump that large?

      I'm gonna track all lines that move over 1 pt. today


      Detroit-5----------> -6

      Cavs-12.5--------->-13.5

      Jazz-5-------------->-6


      They bumped the Suns up a half, not enough for me to count. All totals stayed the same. Could it be these are the games they are getting a bit nervous on & want to sell some off onto the dog? For the record, I do like all 3!

            Games that have over a 1 pt swing (NBA, NFL & CFB) have been hitting like 70%. The other day the Heat & Blazers lines was 1.5 pts higher & they both cashed on the ML. Yesterday Vandy was +7 right aty kickoff but I didn't get the play in on time :bang:

              UDog - I've had that issue with BetUs in the past. There is a trick around it. It doesn't always work though. When the line moves on you while your placing your bet cancel the wager and don't submit it. Log out and then log back in and the line most likely will be at it's previous position. It's happened to me a bunch of times generally adjusting the line a 1/2 pt or 10-50 on a ML. Sometimes I'm able to log out and log back in and get the previous line.

                  Udog- try this......stand on your head and drink a glass of water while saying the alphabet backwards....then pick up the phone and call their customer service and tell them to fk off and you want your money back so you can put it in a real sportsbook that doesn't move lines on people......:thumbs:

                  tell me how that goes.....:laughing:

                    I would except a majority of the lines that move do so in my favor. Anything else that doesn't usually gets played @ 5Dimes, so no worries. As annoying as the line moves can be, I couldn't let go of BetUs simply because they post 2ndh team totals, which were great to me in CFBL this season. Been thinking of getting some loot into matchbook though...

                      UDog - This morning I bet a line that was at -350 when it when to confirm the line moved to -400. I jumped out and jumped back in and was able to get the line at -375 instead. Not the greatest but it still worked.
