**more BOVADA bonuses in "bowlopoly"

[milwaukee mike]

some of them are pretty puny but it's still fun

for example, bet at least $5 on each college bowl game today and get a $5 risk free bet

over $400 worth of total bonuses for bets i would've been making anyway

[LVHerbie]

I only count $195 listed here... The mystery bonuses and whatever is offered on community chance days would have to be huge to make up the difference but still a good promo regardless...

the rules aren't clear, but i think i read somewhere that if you fill up the board (collect the other bonuses) then you get $200 at the end

[Dank_Fire]

mike, hook it up with a play

[BigDeem5]

So, you bet $200 you get $200 risk free bet?

Edit: Disregard.. read it. Really not that good of a deal mikey

[darkhat]

Thanks for the heads up mike

[EaglesPhan36]

Yah saw this. Continue to like what they're doing.

[milwaukee mike]

A lot of puny $5 and $10 bonuses, but they add up, over the last 10 days i think i got $150 or so in free plays and casino money. Turned one $10 casino chip into $80 and lost the rest

[mighty maron]

This is an entertaining and clever marketing ploy. It got me to stop reloading at Heritage just because of the Bovada promos and they pay. Im a losing player so I appreciate these promos

[Kindred]

yeah I'm rocking out with my bowlopoly..betting games I had no interest in before.

Seems to often be glitches with bovada promos (I think I end up email them to credit me on something about every third one they run)... On the other hand they are usually easy as hell to complete and blow away what their competition is offering these days...

[EaglesPhan36]

There have been some poorly worded promos. I got screwed out of a $10 free play when they had some bonus on making $20 in sports props on a given day. Did not say that it had to be on one play. I divided it up onto two plays and they told me tough shit basically. I told them even though it was only $10, that was some bunk. Have noticed since that one though that they are crystal clear on their wording for these bonuses. So I guess I accomplished that for everyone else.

[CrimsonQueen]

Did anyone email Bovada to check on that "If you fill up the board you get $200"? I have a feeling that's not true...but if it is... then that's a great promo. The last properties, betting $200 gets you $50 cash... that's a great bonus these days. No one else offering stuff like this.

[LVHerbie]

Their "bowlopoly" board to said to check their facebook page today where they had a picture caption contest... Some people apparently read that as them needing to post on their facebook page with hundreds "checking in" by listing their account numbers directly on the page...

[EaglesPhan36]

I had not seen the "fill up the board" $200 deal many have stated. On the page for the promotion, all they have currently is what you get for completing each property piece/color.

I posted on their FB account my username/pw/and social security number just to be safe.

Sounds like the right call...

I emailed them and there is a $200 bonus at the end even though this isn't specifically clarified on any of the pages for the promo....

A total of $195 bonus will be earned when you complete the property sets, on the mystery board piece 'Chance' and 'Community Chest' you will get an additional amount of bonus and when you finish the tasks and reach 'Go' you collect another $200 bonus.

[EaglesPhan36]

Anyone get their $5 today for betting the Bowls yesterday?

[InTheDrink]

michael how many online accounts do you have

michael do you have tens of thousands tied up at online books

michael you must be loaded

it makes sense to at least have $200 in bovada, dsi, and youwager

youwager has another $75 free play next sunday just for having $200 in the account, dsi has a great free bowl contest

thanks for getting confirmation, they had sent me an email saying that or i had seen it somewhere.

haven't gotten the $5 "no-risk bet" yet, and i'm not going to call them. called them for my $11 poker tournament freebie, they waste 10 minutes of my time and say it's coming within 24 hours. still not here 2 days later

[EaglesPhan36]

I don't bother calling those f-ers. I just submit it via e-mail. Lots less troublesome than sitting on the phone with someone. Any time I have e-mailed them, my issues has been resolved quickly. The $5 thing they said is supposed to be in your account on the next business day after you meet the requirements for winning it. As usual, they use vague terminology with next business day - technically that would be today since they are open 7 days a week, but normal business days obviously would be the next week day a.k.a. Monday.

[EaglesPhan36]

Anyone see their $5 yet?

[milwaukee mike]

Anyone see their $5 yet?

not yet, but it's a "risk-free bet" so i'm not sure if it is only on a specific game? reminded me to check on my tournament ticket, there it is $11 which i'm going to use on a omaha tournament in an hour

[BigDeem5]

Blowvada = ) . I hit a $20 4 game parlay because had $20 laying in there.. See what I can do now

No, it should show up as a bonus link still. Basically you use your real money for a bet, but click the link that you are using the $5 on it. If it loses, you get your money back. If it wins, you win obviously.

ok great. if anyone sees it please post in this thread, and don't use it to meet one of the other "bowlopoly" requirements because according to the rules it won't count.

do these $5 bets have to be $5.50 to win $5 or can they be $5 to win $4.55? yes my account is that low that i might have to worry about that if i want to make the next set lol

[BigDeem5]

I believe it is risk $5.. Not $5.50

I have been in contact with Bovada Customer Service. They "claim" that the bets MUST be made on the date specified on the game board (game day in other words) in order to count. So if you placed bets in advance like I did, you are screwed and WILL NOT SEE YOUR BONUS at all!!! Join me in getting after them for this blatant ripoff. The terms and conditions DO NOT state that you have to make the bets on game day. I've already made bets on the whole first street and they say they don't count.

[nhmoose]

Not so crystal clear. The current promo is messed up. They didn't state anywhere that bowlopoly bets have to be placed game day, but they are refusing to pay bonus on the first one and I've got other monies tied up in bets on this stupid thing I've already placed and apparently won't count. It's bogus. And you STILL have to always email them for codes for free casino chips and "remind" them about other bonuses. I'm about done with them I think.

[nhmoose]

And does anyone wonder if they got permission to rip off Hasbro's Monopoly game for this promotion. I'm sure McDonald's has a deal for their promo with Hasbro. Is Bovada THAT far outside the law that they can get away with plagiarism? God, can anyone tell just how bad these people have pissed me off??? It's Christmas time and I'm not dealing with this BS any more. Time to make some banana bread ;-)

[EaglesPhan36]

Not surprising that they would fukk you with the wording. As I said earlier in the thread, I got fukked on a $10 one that was worded poorly as well. I think if the promos fit what you play, cool - get the bonus - but I would definitely not stray to making bets just to fulfill the potential bonuses. That was how I got screwed on one already and I'm not betting all these bowls just to try to get a bonus.

[nhmoose]

By way of an update, I heard back from Bovada on the "purple" bets. Because the terms stated "Bovada "Football" set requirements must be done any time between December 15, 2012 - January 7, 2013", you are definitely screwed if you made bets prior to the 15th. However, I made my light blue bets ON the 15th, so they should have to honor them and I have a request in for clarification, since "any time" is certainly not a specific date. I'll post again when clarification comes, but I would NOT place any more bowl game bets until they make this clear folks. I was only playing the first street anyway.

[EaglesPhan36]

Here's an e-mail I got with some more tips on how to fukk yourself with these bonuses if you aren't careful:

Please be advised that you can get at least $400 in bonus if you are able to complete all of the task and property sets that we offer including the mystery and cash bonus.The bonus will be issued on the next business day after you have completed any property sets.

Also please be informed that for you to be eligible for this promotion you must enter into the promotion using the 'Enter Now' button. Only full game for point spread and game totals are eligible. You may not use a bonus to bet on a bowl game and earn a property. Betting both sides of the game will nullify your eligibility.


All Bowlopoly bonuses issued are subject to standard rollover which is 3x sports, 20x casino and 3 poker points per dollar issued.

[nhmoose]

Yeah, I get the point. This particular promotion is so full of places to trip up it's mind boggling. For instance, are the two chance squares a set or individual bonuses? I don't think it's intentional...probably a matter of English being everyone's second language there. Which is not a dig. I have enough trouble with one language and have great respect for people who are bilingual +. Well, since I already screwed myself out of the purple one by betting a day early I don't have to worry about completing the card, do I??? Whatever happens with the light blue bets I've already placed, I'm done. If I had another place to go, I wouldn't even play poker with this site. But it's the easiest to deposit at and they DO send out a check on the rare occasion I get ahead and request a withdrawal...
