It may sound not much but hey it adds up! Let's say you get 300$ bonus from 1 bookmaker. If you have 4 accounts, it makes 1200$. If it takes 1 week to complete the rollover; let me ask you 4800$ extra profit every month is bad?

    Some will say reduced juice is the best bonus. Yes, it's true. Place your bets in the bookmaker with reduced juice, yes but pick the bonus as well. After you picked the bonus, place your bets and hedge them in sharp bookmaker for a small loss such as %-1 or %-2, depending on the book. Preferrably, it would be much more profitable if you can complete the rollover with positive arbs but even if you complete the rollover with small negative arbs, still that's good. Enjoy the bonus opportunities while they last. In future, you won't be available to find those generous offers. Even today, I miss bonus opportunities in the past.

    The key is if you can hedge bonus plays at a small loss

    Not easy

    Bonuses have gotten better recently. With more and more states legalizing it and starting their own there is more legitimate competition than ever.

    I've never not taken a bonus. It's well worth it.

    You are one of the few. I'm glad he hasn't been back. I hope he never comes back
