Winners: Anybody actually Cash Out?

Doc JS · 10-23-06, 02:52 PM

ivy,

make no mistake...while this is a WONDERFUL contest (and since I won this week, I think it's EXTRA WONDERFUL !), BetCris is a for-profit organization and they wouldn't be doing this if they weren't making money, right?

So, the answer to your question is the overwhelming majority of people are NOT making the 5X rollover and cashing out. They're losing the "free money" they're winning in BTP and they're losing the $100 they had to deposit to get it.

If I make the rollover and cashout, I'll let ya' know! lol

Cashed out 3 of my 4 wins this year. If you have another book use the free money to play the opposite side of a game your playing. So say for example you think Alabama is the play this week you bet 200 with your other book on alabama and with Cris you play FLORIDA INT. If your right you win with your other book and collect at once. If your wrong you have 400 in your Cris account and now all you need is to roll it over 4 more times two of which are guaranteed because you have 400. Another method is to pick your 3 best plays for the week and do a 100 parlay back it with a 100 10pt Tease. If you win you have the money needed to complete the roll. If you hit the tease but miss the parlay you have rolled it once and now you get another shot.

I like Cris and send non contest funds in as well. But I hedge with Pinnacle or 5Dimes.

ivyconniver · 10-23-06, 04:06 PM

I agree, it is a great contest for all involved - the players, the book, and of course we can't forget SBR. I guess I'd just like to hear a success story!

That's a good idea Aces, so even if you haven't won, or lost it all, we can use this thread to suggest some good rollover methods.

What I was trying to do was make a lot of small wagers, which over the course of a few weeks would have panned out to keep me about even.

It took me 2 weeks to rollover the 500 money and i ended up even in the end. Cashed out about 400 and left a little bit in the account. Had it up to 700 at one point, but lost a couple of bets towards the end of the roll. I staked anything between 20-200 a bet. Not safe tactics, but got me through the rollover requirements.

Maybe i'll scalp some next time, but i've got enough in the bank and other bookies to not stress too much over free prize money. Tried to make some profit out if it and have fun. I usually like to start with one big wager with this kind of bonus and if it hits, you're in a good position.

Aces,

Sounds like a plan!

Thanks,

I'm about 90% of the way to my rollover for the $800 I've won, I'm up a bit overall.

Great Contest!

Serontin,

Curious as to how you rolled it over... sides, parlays, teasers?

What's the bestest, safest, fastest way to make the roll over to cash out?

Thanks for your input...

Doc JS

patswin · 10-24-06, 09:53 AM

Cashed out some and rolled some into others books

serontin · 10-24-06, 11:51 AM

Doc JS. Only sides: IMO parlays and teasers are jokes!!

1st and 2nd time Wagering all (best bets): after normal wager according my money managing.

serontin · 10-24-06, 11:53 AM

PS. i didn't know $30 fee for Neteller withdrawal!!!

BetCris very good, but the only one you have to pay for Neteller withdrawal.

Not true, they have free deposits all the time, and one free withdrawal per week on FRIDAYS.

They don't advertise it very prominently, but it is free if you wait till the end of the week. They capitalize on most people wanting to take the cash after a good weekend

Tchocky · 10-24-06, 12:47 PM

In my opinion, these bonuses are offered to lure new customers. It's not easy fulfilling the 5x rollover requirement (deposit + bonus). I would say most guys lose their bonus and original deposit trying to fulfill that rollover requirement or come out flat at best. All that work and stress just to land right where you started while they collect all that viggorish from your wagers. Who's getting the short end of the stick here?

Tchocky,
Of course it is! As I said earlier in this thread, BetCRIS is a for-profit ogranization (and I have no problem with that, BTW) and if they weren't making money on the deal they wouldn't be doing it.

That having been said...I'm looking forward to trying to roll over my winnings from this past week over the next couple of weeks!

"....and one free withdrawal per week on FRIDAYS...."

I didn't know.
Ivyconniver, how can I read this rule?

Try this link. If it doesnt work, just go to www.betcris.com main page, BEFORE you log in, click cashier at the top right. Then click withdrawals on the menu to the left. Conveniently, part in red isn't mentioned on the withdrawals page once you log in.

serontin · 10-24-06, 04:03 PM

Tyvm ivyconniver. Link works well.

But, IMO, Betcris would be downgraded for this very very very dirty trick!!!

ivyconniver · 10-27-06, 07:57 AM

As an update, won $400 so far, managed to roll it over and cash out my original $100 plus a groundbreaking $44.

I figure taking all the cash out will motivate me to make better picks here again!

McBa1n · 10-27-06, 04:59 PM

I've taken down 800$ so far and cashed 250$ no problems. I havn't cracked the 200$ from last weekend and rolled it yet, but I figure that'l be fixed in about a week... Depends on my Saturday card. I have been spreading money BIGTIME on the ML on huge favorites in CFB to get that money rolled and live. It doesn't pay off well, but it gets it live quick.
Cris had money to neteller in about 2-4 hours... Longer than I expected, but it worked fine/dandy.

goldengoat · 10-27-06, 08:47 PM

i usually make all the rollovers when i take my time and don't get in a hurry to fulfill the requirement

one time i got in a hurry and bet more than i should have (and i knew it) and got owned but it was a good learning experience

i always remind myself to not get in a hurry to roll it over now and things usually work out nicely

i am more a conservative type of player though so things never get real high or real low so that's prolly why it works out most of the time

soli · 10-28-06, 12:03 PM

can't go wrong with free money

pags11 · 11-04-06, 12:55 AM

I cashed out today...CRIS is a legit book guys...

denn333 · 11-05-06, 12:42 AM

tapped out every time.

mrwhy300 · 11-05-06, 02:04 AM

5x rollover took me a while.... but have no complain about the book... all good!

InSpades · 11-06-06, 03:19 AM

Why is eveyone in such a hurry to cash out of this book?

IS

Aces · 11-06-06, 05:41 AM

No hurry to cash out CRIS in my opinion is one of the top 3 books online. Everytime I try another book for bonus money or promos I regret doing it. The question would sound better if it read How many Roll the money 5 times. I signed up with a book last week for a 100% bonus with a 12X roll. The roll is never a problem for me because I play quite a few games in a weekend. But I assure you the book I got the 100% bonus from isn't in the same class as CRIS.

denn333 · 11-06-06, 11:32 AM

you only have to send 100.00 once, is that correct ?

Survived my 5X rollover and won a little over $100 on top of the original $500 prize. Cashing out tomorrow for some xmas cash.

First time my $200 prize went $0 quickly
Second time my $200 prize went $0 quickly
Third time (now) my $200 are $650 after 3.5 rolled
