How is this sportsbook? I was thinking about adding another to my current lineup:

Pinny, 5Dimes, Hollywood, VIP

Thanks in advance....TP

Some good lines. Terrible software. Fast payouts. But be sure you completed your roll. If you ask for a payout before you rollover is completed they will send you your money and take back the bonus. Some people may not mind, others would prefer to be warned if the payout will cost them thier bonus.

Been away from them for 9 months, but enjoyed them when I was with them.

Thanks for the input. I'm kind of a stickler about software--spoiled by Pinnacle--but will consider it.

Fellas, I've been considering this Book too. Does this book have a niche, a strength, or a specialty in some area, that makes them different from Olympic? Or is this Book a Mini-Me of Olympic. Olympic is (along with 5 Dimes) my favorite Book(s). I'm looking to seee if there is something that BetJamaica maybe specializes in, or offers, that Olympic doesn't? Thanks in advance for any insight/info.

Kevy:
They offer 5% vig on Friday nights during grid season and Olympic doesn't. I'm with both that's all I can think of other than a bigger bonus through Betjbut higher limits and earlier lines through Oly. Like using them both among my current 6-pack of outs.

Let's say you click on "pick pitcher/ buy points" and then you click on mlb. AFterwards you decide you want "bet the board" so you can also look at football lines, or basketball lines, you have to basically log out and log back in. It's simply a lot easier at other books to go back to the first page and decide what lines to look at. But most importantly, depending on the size of your bet and whether they have profiled you yet, after you submit yuour bet, the screen goes blank. For a first time user, it would appear that you've lost connection or something. It could take anywhere from 5 to 15 seconds before you get a confirmation. Sometimes even longer. And sometimes they will simply change the lines on you. The more you win, the more aggravating you will find placing wagers. In fairness you could have the same problem at royal and rio. The difference is whne you contrast that feature to the greek, where you get a minute to confrim your wager., and rarely if ever hear complaints about line changes, it's suprising that spiro is behind both books. Whats alos interesting is that I'm not aware of any timeout feature at the greek, while there is a timeout feature at betjm. So certianly there are a lot of pluses to web design over thegreek. There are a lot of negatives.

Personally I try to stay away from books like royal, rio and betjm. If they are agfraid of having soft lines, they should hire a new lineman, they shouldn't make thier players wait to recieve a bet confirmation. If you do play there, be very careful about placing wager minutes before gametime. you could easily get screwed

Sometimes they have the best lines out there, and sometimes their lines will be similar to Olympic. They will have some different numbers on bases though.

They're good, but they'll limit you to $500 pretty fast if you're sharp.
 

And if the Road Warrior says it, it must be true..

Just opened an account at BetJam today. The CS rep on the phone spoke perfect English and didn't screw anything up.

Personally, I like the software. It's just like Hollywood's. I don't like VIP's software, though. Pinnacle's the best.

Dear Mr. Pylons, You are a very attractive man. And you look very intelligent too. Maybe we could go to Hawaii for a dirty weekend!

Looks are deceiving. I don't like to fly and get seasick so Hawaii is out of the question. Maybe Salisaw might be a better option.
