    so why not just make 8 3 team parlays at -110 and guarantee yourself the 74.5% cash value of the freeplay.

    http://betislands.com/bonuses/bonus-rules.php

    Freeplays are allowed ONLY in the following wager types:
    • Straight wagers (moneylines up to +/-200)
      BetIslands reserves the right to change and or modify all wagering payouts according to these parameters.
    • 3 team parlays max.
    • 2 team teasers max.

    that is in the rules

    if you were 'sharp' you would get 100% of the 100% bonus

    eh yeah they are one of them what they call recreational books. I do not like books setting limits on how to wager. This is probably a deal breaker for me. I've been considering throwing a few hundo there but probably not the more I'm thinking about it. Not saying i'm big on betting +/- 200 but if I wanna do so with my freeplay I want too. Just need to play where they give more betting options.

    DONT LIKE THAT ROLLOVER AT BET ISLANDS BECOMES WHAT YOU WIN WITH FREEPLAY.----heritage 4x roll total , no increase if you win with FP.

    5dimes is obviously considered the best in America for the most part.. If you don't care a bout having a billion options, I'd go with betislands. While 5dimes obv pays, betislands pays the faster i've seen since Rebatewager.

    dude, BI has a lot of Jewish aspects to it. they don't allow a lot of shit that a lot of other books do

    for instance, can I put Italy to score first???? it's only -115

    oh wait, BI doesn't allow you to parlay it.



    so let me rephrase it since you "cannot read". do they allow runlines in their parlays?

    now that they have the mlb lines up (among their 5 other sport offerings), I can click on parlays and it appears
