    I will say for the recreational player, yes it sucks. The blackjack tourney i hate because to me its pretty much worthless since I don't play any casino games. But I will also say since they didnt have to do anything as most books dont it is a nice gesture.

              its already annouced on their website.. free blackjack tourneys and double your precentage on your rebate from dec 5-25 or some dates like that. so if you are getting .05 percent back on a bet you now get 1.0 percent. So if you are a 50 dollar better as the op says you will get 50 cents instead of 25 cents per bet

                because people betting 20 dollars are geting back a whopping 20 cents on a bet. So if you are not betting big amounts you might get back a dollar instead of the usual 20 dollar freeplay or whatever they give you for a average bet size.

                  Compare it to what 5dimes does for Christmas. See if you are still disappointed.

                        The promo at Heritage is pretty useless for me....I have used three deposits that I have earmarked for Heritage and they went to Bovada this month. The Bovada promo's for a losing player like me are fun...the days promo got two of the deposits and the bowlopoly got the other one.

                        I have made 9 depsoits on Heritage, and 0 withdrawls....so small promos appeal to me ...Heritage and Bovada both have poker and both sites pay....

                        So the lack of promos didnt screw me because I found a pasture that gave them to me and let me play poker at the same time......

                        Love Heritage but perks are perks

                            First off, it's a present so no one is getting "screwed". Second, it's based on the total action you give them for December which seems fair (the more you bet, the greater your holiday bonus). Finally, and best of all, there will be no rollover on any of this when the cash is put into your account on Jan 1st. Seems like a decent deal to me.

                                guys dont go crazy betting during the holidays

                                if i could find the old JJ post about this subject i would post it

                                it is a very good post

                                Heritage has falling off the map on how they treated their everyday players ever since the betjam/greek takeover JMO though

                                  I'm getting back $10. Better than nothing I guess. I'd rather them give me $100 freeplay with a ridiculous rollover requirements.

                                    bigger the wagers, bigger the rewards with the 2x loyalty points...

                                    don't forget last year when they gave out freeplays...the smaller bettors were complaining they only got a $25 freeplay.
                                    now they change it to a BJ contest and double the loyalty points and people still complain..

                                    IF you win a BJ tournament I don't think you'll be complaining about $500 CASH holiday gift...granted its hard as crap

                                    people that I can understand complain is if you gave them decent action from January-November timeframe...because it's really only for action in December.

                                    regardless it's a PERK and they are switching it up year to year.. you can't really ever complain about free money. 5Dimes doesn't even celebrate Festivus

                                        I dont wager sports very much...the losses were their casino and poker.....casino losses this month near 700 or so

                                        It is entertainment to me as I have to work mostly 7 days a week til the holidays are over...cant go to the casino...

                                          They also are going to have a get out of a bet at halftime for Christmas which is nice. Although if won I think they should have a charity option JMAO.

                                                                its a "gift" but for me, someone who's lost over 50k this year and is tight on money for the holiday season, it sucks! All there doing is wanting you to bet more at the current time frame, if they had a clue or really cared they would have taken a month beside s December and given you double cash back and credited it to you
