If this game lands on Pitt -5, there should be the biggest investigation in history

.
If any book that I had money in offerred this promotion, I'd withdraw everything immediately if I could, but good luck to all who take advantage of this, and good luck to Mansion.

There was a bet (or two) for $9000 half a year ago, but the refund was "only" 10%. So it's not that new from Mansion to offer such a big money back.

there would of been alot less in that one, hard enough to get ppl to send 1k cant imagine many sending close to 10k

I wonder if the asian owner will be forced to sell one of his MANSIONS after Pitt covers!
Thats why they need three days to grade it

**pags11** · 08-31-06, 02:22 AM

you may be right scorpion...

From the Mansion site:

Pittsburgh Steelers 2006 Superbowl Champs Promotion

PLEASE NOTE:

The Pittsburgh Steelers game will be unavailable from Thursday 31 August 23:30 GMT due to pre-season games across the weekend.

The Pittsburgh Steelers promotional bet will be back on the website at 15:00 GMT, Monday 4 Sep 2006

**Hulu** · 08-31-06, 03:14 PM

I'm in. Pitt -4.5 -110

**JoshW** · 08-31-06, 03:16 PM

Interesting move pulling it until before game time.

**homedog** · 08-31-06, 06:17 PM

Has anybody looked at the Mansion exchange for tonight's games? I don't claim to know it all about exchanges or Mansion's exchange in particular, but it looks like nothing but Mansion money on the offer.

**pags11** · 09-01-06, 04:16 AM

at least they are taking some steps to protect themselves from people this weekend...

**sjelveh** · 09-03-06, 06:23 PM

looks like were going to be rooting for mr batch huh, am glad am waiting for my ablity to withdraw before i put my money in. i might get tia at 2.5

**Hulu** · 09-03-06, 07:57 PM

The execs at Mansion must be jumping for joy already. Unless of course they already knew about this.

**TheGambler** · 09-03-06, 11:16 PM

Maybe I'm missing something here but Mansion still is not going to make any money since they are reimbursing your wager if Pittsburgh loses, correct? Yes, it's a great marketing method but they will still not make a dime on this promotion even with all of the crazy stuff happening with the line. I haven't actually made my wager yet b/c I have been debating whether it was legit or not but chances are I will once they post it back up.

**scottyy11** · 09-04-06, 01:56 AM

i wonder how much mansion is paying ben to sit out lol

**TheGambler** · 09-04-06, 02:46 PM

well, after all of the debate about this bet being legit or not, i have made my wager with Pittsburgh at a pickem'. Also, this was my first deposit with Mansion and it says I have a balance of Fun Money of 1,000. what does this mean? i couldn't find anything about sign up bonuses.

**MrX** · 09-04-06, 03:13 PM

I think "Fun Money" is for playing in free poker games.

If you find that "fun."

I don't.

**sjelveh** · 09-04-06, 04:49 PM

got it at a pick em and i think am going to let it ride no faith in culpepper.

**pags11** · 09-05-06, 01:42 AM

who's big ben's back-up?...

**scottyy11** · 09-05-06, 10:13 AM

is it not charlie batch?

**LVHerbie** · 09-06-06, 04:56 AM

looks like the pull the plug on this promo... no longer listed on the main page...

**slash** · 09-06-06, 05:03 AM

Yep, 5000 members have taken them up on the offer.

WHAT! I haven´t made my bet yet. According to their rules it would not expire until the game started!

**Kaka** · 09-06-06, 05:29 AM

just read on their site that it has ended. This a scam if you ask me!

**knuckles199** · 09-06-06, 05:34 AM

Go Steelers. Mansion can't lose on this, they are gaining thousands of new members and are probably using the cash deposited to hedge the bet somehow.

**Kaka** · 09-06-06, 05:38 AM

anyone that can find anything in their rules that gives them the right to close this offer down before kickoff? (I know they can do whatever they want, but I still feel they did not give players a fair chance) I bet most people thought this offer would end the second the game was kicked off!

There was a clause in the T&C's which gave them the right to 'pull' this promo at any time.

I really thought they would end the promo a lot earlier then they actually did as it was the most generous offer I have ever seen

**Kaka** · 09-06-06, 06:19 AM

I can´t f.... believe I missed it!

**Dark Horse** · 09-06-06, 06:23 AM

They probably can't believe it either.

kaka ... email them and say you heard the offer was pulled and went to check your bet one last time and it wasnt there ... blah blah blah ... you must have forgotten to confirm it, etc.

Maybe they'll let you in. maybe not.

Ive got the Steelers -4.5 which is good as not having it either really (or$200 tops)

**slash** · 09-06-06, 07:14 AM

Of course they can stop offering this promotion whenever they want to. It was part of their T&C all the time.
