Has anyone been able to confirm what kinds of bets they will take $5,000 on? Does it have to be an NFL side or are they going to take $5k on small markets for this promo?

Can confirm they took +480 and +750 on EPL 3way money line, so I imagine you can do NFL money line no problem.

Also, I had one colleague that says he got it down on a +380 mlb alt spread, and another that got it down on +340 NFL preseason money line.

If you link your Caesars account can probably get 7 star need to bet to win $2000 a day they over comp dogs pretty well up to +1000 max. Only 4 months left on year but it is very low betting for the 12 months next year especially if take plus money stuff. So if bet all -110 juice would have to bet 825k but if all +1000 only need to bet 75k dogs massively over comped.

Did anyone on here receive the $10,000 free bet promo on Caesar's for existing account holders? You get a free bet of up to $10K win or lose upon making a wager of the same amount.

It's not that good of a promo, it basically gives you 1 chance to win and make a good profit or if you lose, just 1 chance to try and win your original stake back. So let's say you deposit $5k to Caesars then bet it all on a team that loses. Since you lost, now Caesar's Sportsbook adds a $5k free play token to your account that you have to bet all at once within 30 days. So now you have to bet your $5k token on something as close to +100 odds as possble that way you get your original $5k stake back. So let's say you bet your $5k free play token on a +100 ML football team and it wins. Well now you just won your original $5k stake back, you haven't made any profit. If your $5k free play token loses then that's it....you just lost 5 BIG ONES.

Bad promo for most people. It's plus EV but with a 25% chance of losing 5k; relying on the long term to play out in the very short term.

Best promo i have ever seen.
Guaranteed +-2500 profit if your bankroll is large enough to lay the first bet and optional freebet at another book or exchange

Yeah exactly, I don't know how these promos can be marketed as a "risk free bet" lol it's such a joke. A risk free bet to me SHOULD mean you could bet $5k on a team and if you lose then they would credit your account with $5k in cash that you could withdrawal right away or do whatever you want with. That would be RISK FREE. You take a shot and if you lose, you get your money back without any conditions or obligations.
This promo should be called, "Free play token up to $5K if you lose your first bet" not a risk free bet. I live in Colorado so I have been getting all the ads for this promo and was thinking about doing it until I read the details on it. If it was truly a risk free bet I'd be all over this.

How so? I'm not following you. I don't think you read the terms right.

That's not true. You can easily if you have the cash bet 5k on one side and use money in other accounts to bet the other side and guarantee a profit.

I agree but most people don't bet that much. For the average $100-200 bettor, there's to much risk of losing 25-50 units.

First, let's get one thing straight. NONE OF YOU have enough money to make this worth your while. Secondly, you no longer can just wager on team "A" and then go across the street and wager on team "B". They have computers that serve all the sports books just like the super slots that pay off millions are hooked up on to a main site that controls all of them in every hotel. The books are years ahead of you fools in here. No matter what you do, the only way to make money is to know what you are doing, and very few, if any of you do.

Great post. From my understanding.... it just gives you a reason to play very aggressive on your initial deposit. Hence you'll get an opportunity to use that extra 5k free play.
I believe there will be better promotions throughout the football year. Yes, even better than this one.

Nope, read the last few pages of this thread where I talked about it already and I posted the terms. If you risk $5k on a bet and lose, they don't credit your account with $5k back in cash. You get a $5k free bet token to bet on anything you want within 30 days. Whatever you bet the $5k token on you keep the winnings only if that bet wins. So let's say you bet your $5k token on a ‐200 moneyline favorite team and it wins, you would win $2,500...so you deposited $5k and now you only have $2.5k, so you lost 50% of your money. That's why you'd want to bet your $5k token on something as close to +100 odds as possible to try and win your original $5k stake back.
I've never bet more than $500 in a single bet, having $5k on one team would have my heart racing and I'd be pacing in front of the TV the whole time lol. Betting the entire $5k would be a little nerve wrecking but if that lost at least you know you would get a $5k free play token to try and win it back. The $5k free play token bet is where I'd be biting my nails since if that lost, there goes $5k which is a whole month salary for me basically.

They give you a second shot if you lose your first bet.
Think about it as them offering you a halving of your risk for no reduction in payout odds.
It's a nice offer with a big enough limit to interest whales.
If it was a total cash refund, sure that would be more than twice as good. But they aren't offering that! Don't think I have ever seen any book offer that. If I did I would take a loan to take it for the max if needed as it would be such a great offer.

It's not a free shot; as stated earlier, there's a decent chance that you're going to be out 5k.
