    You can still pull out 1200 immediately as long as you leave the 300 in for the roll period
    I did not know you can do this.

    Exactly correct, sir!! And if you’re going to gamble on football all year long then why wouldn’t you take bonuses?? I easily make all my rollovers half way through the season. Plus if you zero out somewhere u can qualify for another bonus- free money and best time of year.

    In and Outers dont like R/O ... Understandable

    But

    Long term bettors should not have a problem with rollovers IF book doesnt cut bet limit during R/O

    If you are sending 10,000 or so no need to take a bonus. They wouldn't give you the 50% or whatever anyways. You might want to take it out at anytime when betting big for many reasons. Other than that it is a good idea to take it. Presumably if you start with a small bankroll you want as much as you can get . You want room for error. And if you have a small bankroll you would be trying to build it up so rollover wouldn't be a problem.

    If you are wagering $10-$25 a game, don't deposit $1,000 and take a big bonus. You are better off depositing $150-$200 so the rollovers are kept small and money not tied up. That's the biggest problem people have, they don't think properly and when they need to wager $14,000 because they deposited $1,000 it seems like a tall task.

    At a minimum using the FP value calculator you can get 55% pretty easily and with a win that money is in a book you can withdraw in 1 bet. I've also used the 200% FP option when I have a bet I love at odds that give me more cash than the 100%, in that case I'll take my shot.

    Yep it's that simple

    If you plan to bet the entire season on the sport of your choice, you take the bonus, no-brainer

    BetNow $1,000 Cash bonus with 3x rollover.
    MyBookie $1,000 FP with 10x rollover (I believe, haven't confirmed)
    BetAGame $1500 FP on $1,000 deposit with 15x rollover

    BetAGame has been tremendous with their promos/offers and they are the quickest book I've ever used for bitcoin payouts.
    BetNow I've had a good experience with as well and got paid same day last time I used them.
    MyBookie has questionable history and likes to give people a hard time. Still a good bonus but isn't going to be anyone's top choice.

    They popped up 2 to 3 years ago as a new sponsor of another forum and most questions that have been asked are about why the rollover for bonuses looks too good to be true.

    Been one or two minor negative threads made that I can recall. A player had limits reduced to something like $200 during rollover was one.

    Treat with care I think.

    I get where you're coming from... but also... the book shouldn't advertise up to a set amount.... For example $1,000 For $1,000 and then cut someone's wagering amounts. That's 1st grader sh#$.... and the book should be rated a D or F immediately.

    The book should have a lower cap if they feel they might get exposed. Don't promise the world... and not live up to your promise.

    BetMania comes to mind.... MyBookie.... a lot of these a$$hole shops.

    I absolutely agree. BetDSI,MyBookie and BetMania Group(BetPhoenix/Skybook etc) are some of the ones known to pull that crap. When you get great offers from sites like BOL/Sportsbetting and Bookmaker/JustBet it doesnt get any better than that. 50% cash or 100% FP are great offers with A+ rated books like them.

    They seem to be alright. I wouldn't endorse them by any means but my experience with them has been positive. Paid same day with bitcoin and bonus was the best offer around when I took it the first time. I don't actively bet with them but this is only the second 100% bonus I've seen them offer.

    BetAGame has impressed me more than BetNow has because they give 100% Freeplay bonuses and also have low-vig and bitcoin payouts in 2 minutes.

    No idea, good point, and exactly why I'm digging.

    Wondering if others see this & chime in with problems they've had with them.

    I've always had the theory that books which take sponsorship seriously and do so are the ones that obviously care the most and most trustworthy.

    Someone mentioned they are an SBG Global clone. Not sure if that's a good thing or not as I never played with that site. Just some more information for you. Looks like a D- rating here.

    Correct. As long as you can pull your winnings and don't deposit your rent money it does not matter what the rollover is.. every time I hit and get up I take payouts. Payouts are free and fast too.
