Ok, does a CASH bonus basically mean that it can be broken up into different bets and used as you wish? A FREEPLAY mean that it can only be used on one bet? Just needed clarification.
Thanks.

every book have their own freeplay bonus rules but I think I can safely say that CASH bonuses are treated just like the deposit amount but subject to a betting rollover. Ask the book you are considering, they should explain the difference between the 2 and you decide which you prefer.

I haven't run into a book that only lets you bet the entire freeplay amount in one bet. You can break it up. They usually restrict what sports you can bet it on - they do their best to prevent you from betting huge dogs.
And for cash bonuses you can of course bet it any way you want.

Cash is credited right to your balance so if you bet $50 to win $50 you get $100 back when the bet wins. Free play is separate and if you bet $50 to win $50 you get $50 back, not the entire amount, just the winnings...
CASH IS KING!

Just so you know, never ever use the freeplay on just a straight (as you don't receive the risk amount, only the amount won, Unless you are taking a huge dog and the book allows you to do so). You can do a search on some of the better ways to get the most value out of your freeplay.
