I'm going for the cash play, $50. Every book has it with 4x roll except BetP & one other, theres are 8x & 7x. Why wouldn'y you do the less rollover? Once you roll it it's yours & your no longer under the roll restrictions of parlays w/3 legs & +/=200ML & that crap. So it seems to me the 4x roll is a better deal for the same amount of points. What am I missing? Does betp make you roll more but give more options to roll? Thoughts please

They have better lines, apparently. I'd still take the lowest rollover requirement.

I'm just so used to playing with a local for years. Juice for the most part only matters when you lose!!!!!!

Well, as I said - for a freeplay/cash I wouldn't pay much attention to juice, I would rather get $210 within 32 days than $250 within 60 days.
Juice is a big factor though when betting longterm, if you are a good sportsbettor you are going to lose at least 3 out of 7 nights a week..at least.

In case anyone doesn't know, putting any freeplay money on a straight wager is the worst way to use it, unless you are taking a huge dog.
Some do the "no-risk" every combination method of (8) three team parlays to guarantee you 75% of the freeplay amount. ($50 FP becomes $37.50 cash) This method may not be too popular with some books/or even some posters as some feel its taking advantage, because theres no risk.
And some others pick a side and put it with all combinations of 2 other games. If your side wins you make 150% of your freeplay amount (your $50 FP becomes $75 cash). This shows why it makes no sense to just do a straight wager with your freeplay, because if you your side wins it only becomes $45.45 cash.
You can do a search in the forum to see other ways posters do it, but again NEVER just put the freeplay on a straight (unless taking a huge Dog).

Your best bet is to call the book and have them explain it for you.
From what I understand, different books may have different rules and requirements.

I got a free play at Sportsbook once. It was confusing to say the least. I hit the weekly perfect parley on having the most winners that week. I thought I'd just log on and withdraw a couple hundred. Oh hell no. Anyway it seemed like if you bet 50$ and won they would take 1/8 of the money and you could withdraw it if you wanted, best thing to do is just keep track of your withdrawable funds as you progress in your betting.

And record the convo. A- books tend to change their minds.
