Christmas Gift For SBR From BetPhoenix: Free 3 team Parlay for Christmas Day Games.

[Art Vandeleigh]

Thanks for the offer BP.

[Keith Richard]

Tough to hit but nice offer.

[1st and Ten]

Just a reminder that games must be played 12/25

[Shortstop]

I don't play here. If I open an account today, do I get this wonderful offer also?

[droc]

So what if you roll over 6X and say you never lose a bet, and get up to $1,200. You only get to take out $200, and you lose the other $1,000. Can anyone confirm?

Yes, you will lose the other $1000........Still a very nice gesture by BetPhoenix, just be careful how you use it. Don't put yourself in a position where you could possibly run this up to $1200........FWIW, betphoenix will usually remove the restrictions on the promo, once you meet the rollover and contact them.

What would be the proper approach in order to maximize your chances of being able to cash out the $200, and not risk running your balance up over $1,000?

[hhsilver]

This can't be though. Maybe you can only withdraw $200, and then the other $1,000 goes into your balance which can be withdrawn at another point in time. I can't imagine them stripping you of your winnings? Can betphoenix jump in and answer this one.

I think where he said max 200 "cashout", it should have said max 200 win for the parlay. If you go on after that to meet the rollover , I can't imagine any max on cashout.

that's my take - but let betphoenix clear this up.

also ---- as someone mentioned --- how does this work with -105 juice. If you are playing at -105 , would you have to go to -110 until you meet the rollover for this if you hit the parlay?

I got my FP through live chat. The person I was talking with said the max cashout would be $200. Seems like too much work for $200, but I will give it a try.

[R3Sports]

Thanks!

What would be the proper approach in order to maximize your chances of being able to cash out the $200, and not risk running your balance up over $1,000?

Assuming you hit your $25 3 team parlay on three -110 bets, you'll have $150 that has to be rolled over 6X($900)....Simply, make a bunch of $25 or $50 wagers. Win a few more than you lose, and you're good to go.......It doesn't matter how big your normal wagers are. It just doesn't make sense to make larger wagers or play more parlays, unless you're close to your rollover and you're not near the max ($200) payout figure.

[THE PROFIT]

I don't have an acct w/bp, do I have to open one now?

[goldseeker]

nice gift!

[betphoenix]

$200 is the max payment...if you are at $1200 after meeting the rollover we will deduct $1000 from the account leaving you with $200 to cash out or continue playing with no further restriction.

The -105 will not be adjusted for using this promo. Great question BTW.

Hope that helps,

Richard

I was told by someone at BP that the max payment would not affect those with money in their accounts

[Chi_archie]

do you literally have to make the 3 teamer on Christmas day? or can you lock in the 3 legs on the 23rd or 24th?

[gummo]

Got mine in the mail today. Thanks BP.

[Shortstop]

99% of the players won't hit the 3-team parlay.

[BadNina]

I bet I won't

[tltaylor89]

It kinda defeats the purpose and itkinda makes you feel sick looking at money you dont have Richard should change the rule on it

[THE PROFIT]

How do you make the 3 teamer? Do you have to have an open acct? NO ONE WILL ANSWER ME!

[THE PROFIT]

I don't have an acct with them. Do I have to open one now or wait & see if I win? If I don't have an acct how do I make my parlay play?

[jasont]

How does this work if I have actual money outside of this freeplay in the account? If I make more than 200 ...how will you distinguish this from the money I already have in the account.

[keyboarding]

[SHADYLANKY]

If you hit the 3 team parlay. What seperates that money in your account? If I have $1000 in my account with no rollover requirements needed and hit the parlay and now have $1150. My next bet is $150 and it loses. Will the $150 with 6X rollover be gone or have I lost my original money and still have 6X rollover left? I asked for it but I don't think I will play it after thinking about it.

Yeah, droc - this is how I would see doing it also. It seems like what they are protecting is someone from turning this parlay money into an eventual bigger score, but also make it challenging to hold onto the $150. Just win the parlay and grind it out from there with the small bets.

[NYER5680]

nice gesture

[B1GER1C828]

Ill give it a go...but gna be a pain in the ass.

[pokernut9999]

This is the most insane free play ever , what a huge waste of time.

[Reload]

This is the most insane free play ever , what a huge waste of time.

Not as insane as Oddsmaker.com's promotions at least. And you can still have -105 juice while you try making the rollover.

1. Have to make play on Christmas day games.
2. If by some long shot you hit a standard parlay you have $150
3. Make $900 worth of wagers and try to have some left to cash $200

Only the broke kids will attempt this

Half the posters will admit they lost their parlay and the ususal pranks will claim they ran it up to thousands of dollars and complain when they can only get $200

And then have to send in a ID

I'm afraid it doesn't help. As you see , people are still asking about it in the case where there may be a positive balance before this.

say you hit and win 150 and your balance goes from 700 to 850. and your rollover is 900 from this play (added to any previous rollover if you have it). Now, how does the "200 max" figure in all this. If you bet and survive to meet the rollover and you win more and then have a balance of , lets say, 1300. ARE YOU SAYING "NO, YOU WOULD ONLY HAVE 700 + 200 = 900. ?????
If so, that is preposterous. And yet it seems like that is what you are saying.

It may not be ideal, but it is a gift. One you do not have to take, at that. I'm sure they are reluctant to put themselves in a position to take a bath on these gifts. Understandable.

I don't have an acct with them. Do I have to open one now or wait & see if I win? If I don't have an acct how do I make my parlay play?

I think your real question here is are you eligible for this promo if you don't already have an account? Can you sign up today and get the promo without ever having deposited with them? The way I'm reading this is yes, but perhaps BP can confirm.

Please tell me why anyone with money ( more than a very small amount) already in there would accept this "gift" under those conditions.

Yes, I agree with you about it being a gift to those with a zero balance. Limiting how much they could win from this is reasonable.

But for someone who has money there and plays regularly, how do you separate the regular money/bets from the money made from the gift and bets made with that money.

I still think there is a misunderstanding about how this works for a regular player with a sizable balance.
