    Bookmaker Betpoints
    As some of you may know, I am new to BM. I have been noticing that they have some type of betpoints accumulating in my account....I have to assume they are some type of reward, but on my phone I can't find out much about them. They say that they are worth money or other rewards....so I guess that is a good thing.

    In the 12 days I have been on BM I have accumulated 21,526 bps, an average of 1794 per day. I have been betting typical amounts for me over those 12 days. If I calculate that out over a year that adds up to:

    654,750

    What I would like to know, is what that would get me. With some of their crappy soccer totals, I want to see if these bps will offset the lines enough to make it worth it.

    Thanks

    Bet points get you free plays,not sure how big a free play you get for 60,000 but you get $25 dollar free play for 5000,so 60,000 probably get you $100-$150 free play.Log in and go to promotions and then click on use bet points,there will be a chart that tells you what you have coming.Hope that helps.

        Sorry i thought you had 60,000 pts,you get a free play for 20,000 pts, you would have to check the chart.It looks like 90,000 pts is most you can use at one time.

          Betpoints used to get you souvenir merchandise, free withdrawals, tout services, t shirts, etc. It was like a bookmaker mini mall. Now the betpoints just determine your status of silver, gold, Platinum, or how you pay for payouts. Don't pay any attention to them, the betpoints basically tell you how much money you have wagered over time with the book.

            If you win, your bet points will be quickly taken away.

                    I played alot with Bookmaker/Betdsi during NFL and early parts of college basketball, after not playing with them for approximately 8 years. My bet points were cut from DSI around late December, with bookmaker following suit quickly after.

                    You will get a message like " your betpoints are not active, please contact customer service".

                    And they will tell you that you are not a recreational player. I was not up very much on them either.

                        I won a 6 figure parlay on betdsi and they never said i was a rec player or confiscated points.

                        I cashed the points in after withdrawling the money from the parlay

                            Risk management usually look at win/loss just because i won a parlay didnt mean i didnt bet into soft tennis and pba lines.

                              used to bet into CRIS before there was a BM

                              did a lot of scalping way back then... sometimes just by happenstance one could hit many in a row at same book

                              guessing they made their decision by looked back into the history

                                Can't tell what your experience was. At the time, I was beating college basketball totals consistently for ~1.2 points per game. This was enough to get the hook on bet points and bonuses, and be limited to $100 bets on anything at DSI.

                                  BetDSI took awat over 800 dollars in freeplays from me, so I know they will take away betpoints too.

                                    makes zero sense dude. Bitcoin payouts are always free, use the betpoints for cash.

                                      Really? I've been with Bookmaker and BETDSI for years.. Never had a problem with cashing those betpoints out.. I never had them taken away.. I'd be shocked if that happened..

                                        So, I guess the best idea is to continually be taking them out in smaller increments? ie, taking what I can now even though the value is a little lower (in Rockets chart 30k points nets $195). If I take that out as I go, I should never lose more than that.

                                        Interesting....and glad I asked. Otherwise I would have kept letting my balance increase until I could get the best value. Some of their lines kind of stink anyway, don't see myself sticking around very long as Pinny and 5dimes lines are definitely better.

                                          Thanks bud. Cashed the 20k points out as obviously I am only gold status. A free $100 ain't bad I guess.

                                            This. Per usual, Peavy gets it. Run them up to 90K, cash out the $700 and change as a diamond member...rinse and repeat.

                                              100%. But I need to hit 300k points in 12 months to hit Diamond. Concerned that in the meantime the points may disappear. I will wait to get better status and then start cashing out at higher levels (if I stick around).

                                                Bookmaker is pretty solid.
                                                There lines are early but usually a few cents worse then pinny and 5 dimes towards game.
                                                They will take away stuff though they won't give me a deposit bonus but they still kick down stuff for betpoints credited cash to account.
                                                Chart was posted above.
                                                I usually make large deposits and do dips and dunks then withdraw account never had issues with payouts
