    Heritage, 5dimes, and Bovada all have poker, casino, and sports....they all pay. But when one of those three companies have a promo/seasonal gift that affects me and the other two on the list dont have the promo...Im going to deposit with that book..

    Heritage I love ya and hope you announce any christmas promo soon...til then im back at Bovada for a while
    If you are an active player Heritage had a pretty decent one last year. No mention this year in the newsletter though tells me it's going to be a little different. Either way I just look at it as a bonus...not like it's owed.

    5Dimes is a decent site but you better believe they never give out any perks when it comes to stuff like this.

    Heritage/5Dimes pay, Bovada pays too but it is slower than the other two. All 3 pay in my experience.

    I agree that nothing is owed. Bovada had some general holiday perks and I decided to reload there to take full advantage of them.

    Sad but true story here: I have redeemed the bonus where you lose 7 deposits in a row get the eighth free recently @ Heritage. I enjoy heritage, and I know I am a losing player. Entertainment for me...each his own... So when a quality site gives a holiday series of bonuses and I have the itch to play after I get home from work.....guess where my entertainment dollars go....Bovada has a series of some holiday money promos...I enjoy playing trying to redeem them....that is why I went with Bovada this time.

    If Heritage had a equal promo running at this time, for CERTAIN my money would reload at Heritage but they dont.......

    here is the response I got....."Currently we have not been informed of any promotion involving free play for christmas, but we have our weekly contest Race to the Superbowl available with the chance to win a prize every week, please refer to our contest central on details for this perk"

    for someone who has made numerous deposits and never cashed out at Heritage this was disappointing.

    In conclusion...Merry Christmas to all SBR users and Im done with this thread as I am going to play at Bovada til my current reload felts out.

    Heritage announced some of the X-Mas perks:

    1)
    Christmas started early at Heritage Sports this year and to thank our customers for their continued loyalty, all Cash-Back eligible customers will reap the benefits of playing with Heritage in December.
    For the entire month of December, you will receive DOUBLE your Loyalty Points just in time for the Bowl Season. Remember, our Cash Back is paid as CASH and there is no rollover requirement, so give us your play and collect your cash!
    *All cash back including the double promotion will be paid on the next scheduled redemption date, January 1st 2013.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    2) From the 15th to the 25th we will host a daily Blackjack Tournament with the winner getting a $500 CASH prize.

    On Christmas Day we will host the Heritage Christmas Blackjack Contest with the winner getting $1,000 CASH, second place a $500 Free Play prize and third to fifth placed finishers get a $100 Free Play each.

    *Cash prizes subject to a 3X rollover requirement.

    I have about 2k in eligible bets this cycle, with $6 cash back. Does that seem right? Not exactly much of a perk

    They count it on WINS and LOSSES so that's why the % is smaller. It sounds right if you have some only half eligible straight wagers (click the small symbol next to the amount you're getting back in the top right and it will have a break down)

    as far as how the X-Mas promotion works I'm not sure. The wording "Loyalty Points" throws me off. I'm not sure if they are just going to double the wager amounts of each bet that count towards Cash Back or if they are going to double the actual amount you're getting back.
    I wonder if there will be a separate X-mas amount in the little breakdown window.

    I'm going to assume that they are doubling the amount wagered x2 for every wager in December that goes towards your cash back. It's not showing as double right now but they did just announce it.

    Blackjack tournaments will be extremely hard to win but fun

    Yeah so basically instead of getting 80 cents on a 100 dollar bet you get 1.60. You should go find some -9000 wager and bet 10000 on it

    it would be based on win amount in that case and I don't think ML bets are fully eligible

    Cheap?

    I've made 6 figures total in bets this period and the cash back is 4-figures so far...... Where else can you get that just for your regular bets?

    Don't bitch cause you don't understand the value in this...

    must not wager much- I'm not a big player but I have $83 built up so far with a couple weeks to go- 150 cash match for christmas beats a small free play elsewhere.

    I don't think they are doubling the payout amount. The way I understand it they are doubling the amount you get back for each wager that normally goes to Cash Back Reward for DECEMBER only.. So if you made $60 thru October and November that amount won't be affected. Let's say in December you make $30 towards Cash Reward..you'll get just that amount doubled to $60.

    That's the way I read it.

    The double points is only from dec 1st through dec 25th which kinda sucks because theirs tons of bowl games from dec25 jan1st. Its still a nice promotion though u figure heritage has thousands of clients so there gonna be giving away thousands of dollars for free its def a nice gesture by heritage.

    For the entire month of December, you will receive DOUBLE your Loyalty Points
    Perhaps whoever you asked was incorrect
    Says entire month on the promo

    No its only til Dec 25th. I went on chat and tryed to figure out how much of my cash back was from dec and was told its only til dec 25th. I asked them twice. On second chat he first told me it was for all of december then when i asked if he was sure he went and checked and found out it was only til the 25th. U can go ask them if u wanna verify.

    These blackjack tournaments are always impossible. There's always to guy with 10,000. Like how the penetrate did someone get so much. The best strategy is betting all three hands. This gives you 150 hands to play with.

    they are very tough. I feel bad for the guy that played January-November at Heritage but doesn't get a chance to place many wagers in December...he's the one that gets really screwed as last year it was based on average wager/number of wagers for the year.

    I don't think it's cheap of them at all. It's just very difficult to win. $500 cash x 9 for the winners and then the bigger payouts on X-Mas day doesn't sound "cheap" to me...plus the 2x loyalty points.. if you're not an active player maybe it sucks..but I don't think inactive players are their target.

    clover,I'd imagine Ive wagered won and lost maybe 50 to 100 times what you played with your whole life

    I have played at all the top online books

    I received a full case of MEAT from omaha steaks probably work well over 300.00 as a gift as well as cash bonuses from many others

    That being said whe you get whatever pitinance from heritage with rollovers and prizes for 3 people out of thousands,yes I call that frigging cheap.i

    Welcome to 2005

    List all the books and what bonuses you got THIS YEAR. Let's see how they stack up
    You just love to blow hot air.
    and trust me I believe you when you say you get a lot of meat...........

    Plus since you are wagering so much and getting double points at Heritage for December you should be happier than a pig in shit... oh wait let me guess how much you've wagered there this month since it's so "cheap"
