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.
    You are right. How the gift balance is distinguished from existing balances is unclear at best. At worst, it is punitive against existing account holders. I'm sure that's not what BP wants to do here, but we should let them explain how the gift rollover is determined for those with existing account balances.

    Good catch. I didn't realize the impact of your question the first time reading it.

      Another post is saying you go to live chat & tell them you want your free play then post it in the players talk thread & you can make the plays now? Would someone please tell me what the **** to do!

        What a train wreck!

        Why not just add $25 to all your players' accounts with no stipulations if you want to extend some good will.

        This is the most ridiculous offer I've ever heard of.

          That is a good question...

          What happens if you have some free cash with rollover requirements..

          Mixed in with cold hard cash, that you deposited?

            Thats mainly the reason why its risky to take this offer with money in the account. I mean what if I won the measely 3 teamer but had 2000 of my own money, how would they distinguish which is which with Saturdays games. Not worth it as I don't want them to say your bets during the rollover was applied to the free offer and not from your cash. Be careful until others can clarify what exactly is going to happen.

              I'll try, but it'll be a minor miracle if I hit the three way parlay and then actually avoid losing it trying to meet the rollover.

                  In the case you have a balance with a rollover we use a second account that was set up for free casino chips. This account is the same as your normal account number with the prefix of CB at the front. This keeps it separated. The idea of this would never be to punish you for having a balance. That would be absurd at best, thus please be rest assured that you will not have to roll any current balance plus the freeplay.

                  There is a $200 restriction on the winnings solely from the freeplay its self. After that point you can turn your $200 into whatever you want.

                  We gave out over to 100k of these items across all brands...this is the reason for the $200 restriction.

                  Assumption: 100000 gifts / 8 winners = 12500 winners
                  Risk: $25 to win $162.50 = $2031250 given to accounts
                  Rollover: $2031250 x 6 at 50/50 win/loss standard = $203125 x 3 = -$609375
                  Gift Amount: $2031250 - $609375 = $1.42 Million in gift amount

                  *Based on straight wager hold standard.

                  I hope this information is helpful, and please enjoy the Gift and merry x mas to you.

                  Regards,

                  Richard

                      No BS here...just hit the play roll it and cash it or reset it to $200 and make a million out of it from there.

                      Then...take the $25 play on the MM tourney and do it all again Nicky Santoro style!

                        Why complain about a free meal? Don't like it, make a deposit somewhere, and roll it into a million.

                          I thought Nicky was better than that.

                                      richie, i read that 12x and i still have no idea what it meant, but i'll take it as a compliment, I THINK..


                                      richie, i think that max 200$ payout was a great move by you because you know i would have turned that 25$ FP into 25,000$.. so you just saved yourself 24,800$ ..
