Freeplays in the Store

There must be an error. Doubt a $50 free play is 165 points. Gotta be over 300 points

lakerboy · 10-13-09, 10:41 AM

smitch124 · 10-13-09, 10:49 AM

oh is it an error? I ordered 4 $50 freeplays, I took a shot at SBR

UntilTheNDofTimE · 10-13-09, 10:54 AM

You must be blind. The bet pheonix is 8x rollover, bookmaker is 4x

Dammit, i did the same...now it looks like a 100 BetPho Freeplay is only 300 points, will have to get Sammy to send us back some points.

Cash is cash, freeplay you only keep the winnings not the risked amt

framboise · 10-13-09, 11:01 AM

free play is not cash. you have to win your freeplay to win cash.

cash is real money.

Cant understand why it is 165 points to get a $50 freeplay with Betphoenix and 600 points to get a $100 freeplay . Doesnt it make sense to just get 2 $50 fplays for 330 points or 4 for 660 points. They both have 8x rollover. Someone please fill me in.

The 600 point price was the default price when the item was listed. It's been scaled down to 300.

No error, it is 165 points since the BetPhoenix freeplay stipulations are different than the industry standard.

Wow, that's going to be a popular purchase

Bill Dozer · 10-13-09, 11:21 AM

Everyone will have to remember that the different offers and their requirements will change like a sportsbook bonus. They won't be up to us like a shirt or gift card where we guarantee the target won't move.

There will be more selections added today.

lakerboy · 10-13-09, 11:24 AM

Thanks mods. Guys Betphoenix is a great out. Try one of the $50 ones and look for a solid play and carry on wisely from there.

Dad · 10-13-09, 11:28 AM

So is a $50 freeplay is a one time bet? You have to bet it all on one game? Then the 8X rollover starts, if you win?

SBR Lou · 10-13-09, 11:28 AM

Also, remember to add your sportsbook ID in the comments section of your order.

Fishhead · 10-13-09, 11:28 AM

BOOKMAKER

1300 PTS for a $250 freeplay

IS THIS THE BEST VALUE CURRENTLY OFFERRED IN THE FREEPLAY/CASH SECTION????

Remember folks, a freeplay is worth about 70-80% of a cash offer if played properly.

When you make these purchases for Sportsbooks cash or free plays, how long does it take to hit your account? Instantly?

BetPhoenix has different terms than BetJamaica, it depends on which $50 freeplay that you order.

BetPhoenix has an 8X rollover and it applies to FP winnings. So if you bet $50 on a +200 dog, you win $100 and then you must rollover that $100 winnings 8 times. This is a little different than industry standard, so the FP is priced at 165 points only for $50.

The BetJamaica has a 6X rollover and it's only on freeplay amount, so $50 would be $300 to rollover and it's the lesser of risk/win calculated.

YES based on the quality of the book

No, same time as it would take a contest winning to be applied. We shoot for within 24 hours on business days but all we can do is send the requests, the sportsbook must apply the credits. Most are pretty quick.

jellobiafra · 10-13-09, 11:31 AM

Too bad BetPhoenix's site is down.

We removed Bookmaker at the moment from free play. If anyone ordered it will be honored but at the minute all free plays actively offered are with BetPhoenix/Betjam.

Our sportsbook cash section has much more of a selection and we are adding books to it as we speak.

jellobiafra · 10-13-09, 11:34 AM

By the way, this is absolutely the best idea in the history of forumville.

- SBR knows how to bring people in and get them on board. The only thing is that they should have a section for 21 and under. Too many kids here talking stupid shit.

Beat the Prick winners just bombared their site...........

They probably have not had this many customers viewing their site in their short history ever.

WOW

Dad · 10-13-09, 11:46 AM

BetPhoenix works just fine for me.

milwaukee mike · 10-13-09, 11:52 AM

if you're using betphoenix, keep one of the login/lines pages as a favorite.
then go to that page to start the login process.

i have found their main site to be slow or down quite often lately, but going right to the bettorb1. stuff works all the time.

milwaukee mike · 10-13-09, 11:55 AM

and fishhead and everyone else keep in mind with betphoenix's freeplays they don't let you take anything more than +200.
so the "value" of their freeplay doesn't approach that 70-80% number, it's 66.67% if you play all +200s with it.

still a good deal compared to most other items for 300 points to get $50 x .6667 or $33.
