    $500 risk free nba bet, what do I bet?

    DK. No odds restrictions. What's the best way to use this while being somewhat safe/logical?

    If it's a "no sweat bet" your +EV goes up the bigger moneyline dog you take.

    If your promo bet isn't for an initial sign-up I would confirm with CS that they are actually giving you the promo. I had a 5k loyalty "no sweat bet" that DK refused to honor, so the more confirmation you can get the better.

      Well I opted in. Read all the terms. Its an "exclusive no sweat bet" on any basketball event expires tomorrow. I guess its from being in the vip program.

      I dont see my token however after looking at it just now so I'm going to have to contact my host/support.

        Don’t do it unless you are okay losing $500 of your money it’s not a “no sweat bet” if your bet loses you only get a $500 freeplay that’s not the same as getting your money back (freeplay bets you only receive the winnings back from the bet you placed not the amount of the risk ) The promos pretty trash I wouldn’t use it.

              This is a business to me, not here to waste time (after dedication, work, time, $ ,) or pull a slot handle. That even sounds stupid..lol
              I guess I take the same outlook as the book, not here to lose money, and everything I can to make more with less effort as in efficiency. If you want my cash, then you're going to have to rip it out of my talons.

                I'll let you guys know what I end up doing


                But I'm open to ideas. Seems like I would be a dumbass not to hedge right? A free $500 free bet with $0 loss if my dk bet loses...but if it wins then I break even with no free bet...

                or chance to win X amount, lets say $500 at +100 odds, but risk losing that and losing the $500 free bet and being out $500.

                I may just go for it and do a sgp try to 3x or 4x my 500 or maybe even parlay with some euro/asian hoops...

                    My bad I may have misunderstood. The hedge would probably only work if you hedged the other side with a great price, mixed with a boost(those promotions like Optional posts daily) The view is just me, I say use your head and dive smart, take a shot GL GL

                        As much as I'd love to do some crazy longshot ticket and go for the walleye, I'm down bad over the last month so I'm going to make a straight bet that I really like.

                        Its either going to be Jrue over 13.5 pts +120 or 23.5 PRA -118 or 24.5 PRA -105.

                        I'll let y'all know which one I went with.

                        Edit, over 13.5 is down to +105. I'm going with over 24.5 pra -105. Fade away boys. Or wish me luck.

                        Got it at +100. 500 to win 500. No hedge. Lets go Jrue.

                            Holiday is a beast.. and deserves a spot light. Pels should’ve kept him. 13.5 points is pushing it though, ball moves around a lot. Boston is obviously the more well rounded “ team “. I do like the points, rebound, assist �� prob a good free play bet.

                            tough one here though, because Dallas is going to fight for their lives, and play their best d.. slow the ball down.. and could win a game, possible.. but if you’re going to do it .. that is a favorable play. Now or if there was a game 5

                              KP is going to play and Brown and Tatum are to battle hard for MVP. Wouldn’t touch that player prop.

                                Didnt he play in game 2 when Jrue had his best game? And he didnt play in game 3 when Jrue had a terrible (offensive stat wise) game

                                    Holliday with his worst quarter of the season. 0 points on 1 shot, 0 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 turnovers.

                                    Going to start handicapping mlb tomorrow to use my $500 free bet

                                      Well its officially dead now that both teams started are out of the game in the 3q.

                                      This would have hit if he did anything in the first half. I think he had a total of 4 or 6. Ends with 15 but wont play the 4th so its dead.

                                          Yeah .. that was savagery Lol .. the best they’ve played. And Boston looked pretty bad, Tatum resorting to isolation ball, brown missing, no shots really falling. They looked horrific.. doubt they play that bad again, but I can see this going 7.. 45 points down 0-3 .. WILD Lol

                                              Yes, NBA ordered this to get a game 5 for TV revenue and Celtic brass are doing handstands that they are getting a game 5 gate now. Many millions of dollars were riding on a Dallas win. Plus the books cleaned up.

                                                Celtics probably win game 5 IMO.
