    Travis d'Arnaud decides to hit 3 HRs last night after coming in with 0 on the year lol.

    Will try to get off the schneid here with Mets +145. Button has been solid and Dodgers don't look like a juggernaut yet.

    Will probably regret this but going with Rangers +164 tonight vs the Braves.

    Have you guys been playing this? Limits vary but IMO it's the best ongoing sportsbook promo right now.

    Same for my state.

    Full slate today with a handful of options that fit the road dog strategy:

    Marlins +140
    White Sox +150
    Angels +114
    Rays +145
    A's +140
    Rangers +164
    Tigers +130
    Mets +164
    Dbacks +105

    Marlins and Rangers games have the highest total (9.5) - leaning Rangers at first glance, Braves do crush lefties though (Heaney).

    Cleveland seems to own Boston.
    Going back years, Cleveland usually has their way with the Red Sox.

    Should have stuck with the Cubs. Despite losing 12-11, they went up 8-5 in the top of the 7th so it would have cashed.

    Oh well, on to the next. Early Win promo is back up again at DraftKings so looks like they may have this daily for the rest of April.


    Lot of afternoon games on the board, what team jumps out for today? Looking at Cleveland +110 vs Boston. Has a total of 9 and they've scored 8, 6, and 10 the last 3 games.

    Going with Yankees +102 at DraftKings.

    Both pitchers have been throwing well to start the season but expect the Yankees to bounce back tonight.

    +136 not a bad price there.

    After seeing Kyle Hendricks first 3 starts, I am now looking elsewhere than the Cubs lol

    26 hits / 17 earned runs / 5 HR allowed in 12 2/3 innings

    Looks like DraftKings is bringing back the MLB Early Win promo, have seen this available the past two days. Cash your moneyline bets if your team goes up by 2+ runs at any time.

    With the road dogs strategy, there are two big prices on the board: Rockies +200 @ Phillies and Nationals +230 @ Dodgers.

    However, one I have my eye on is Cubs +105 @ Diamondbacks due to the 10.5 total - lots of runs expected.

    What do you think is the best play on the board for this promo today?

    Nice job. I had giants yesterday almost a bad beat in the 8th inning up 1 and bases loaded ball 4 was called a strike then the dodgers had several chances to win but the giants went up by 2 in the 11th. I was kicking myself for not taking detroit. The odds were beautiful but i was scared of minnys pitcher.

    Promo is gone for me too. Just a 50% profit boost and some other bs.

    With the scoring up in MLB this year 2 runs is a pretty easy hurdle. Maybe they'll go from 2 runs to 3 at some point like they did 7 to 10 with NFL.

    I've just been picking underdogs with decent contact rates (vs. SP) against favored pitchers in games with high totals. Figure even if they lose outright decent chance both teams will jump out in front.

    Will update if I get promo back in next day or two
    Nothing offered here today either.

    Ok I lost with Rangers but am 5-4 in this promo so still up a bit which isn't saying much but I still love this action. I was gonna hit Reds like a few others but once I saw De La Cruz out of lineup I bailed. Let's get a few winners tomorrow fellas!

    They aren't always graded immediately. Just set it and forget it until the end of the evening or next morning.

    When you look at how some of the young guys and casuals handle their money on these sites I guarantee you its happened more than once that someone has cashed out for less to get more action in

    I bet cle with the early win. They're up 5-0 in the first. Now its 5-3. Why haven't they paid me and why are they offering a cashout of 116. All the other times I was paid asap.

    *they just paid me. Why be shady and offer a cashout when the early win was long ago locked up.

    Lost on clev 2 nights ago and last night unofficially i had yankees but didnt bet it...i screwed myself over actually because i did the $100 risk free sgpx and last leg was yanks ml paying 600....they were up 3-1 so the early win would have hit but they were only-105 so that's why i went w/the sgpx..greed

    Tonight i like detroit as a big road dog at minny and pitt to win again at chi as a small dog. Maybe cle gets off the schnide as well

    Rockies went up by 1 in the 6th last night then proceeded to give up 5 in the bottom of the 7th. Feel like I'm beating a dead horse here but going to take another shot tonight vs the Braves.

    So you probably did not accept $600 value in them
    Interesting. Maybe. Never added it up, can't say for sure.

Even gifts of a $2,500 value I had no forms but this promo caused it to as I have also read other people got them, shouldn’t matter the state. I had to contact my host to figure out why they gave me a 1099 because I was very confused on it.
    ^^^ I have read about this but you are the first person say it's actually happened to them.

    Someone needs to legally challenge them trying to treat bonus offers as real cash for tax purposes.

    Be sure to distinguish fantasy vs. sportsbook. They are quite different.

This is i believe the only one on DraftKings you will get as all their other bonuses are DK dollars or free plays which are not considered cash. They issued the 1099 MISC for these promotions last year, doesn’t have to do with reporting wins/losses.

    You have to report your wins regardless.
