    What should I do with the rest of my freeplay?
    I have not been using it well. I started with $100. I have been making straight bets, which I know is not the best way to handle a freeplay. I won some, I lost some on some small bets. I have $38 left. Whats the best way to use this remaining $38 freeplay money before I have to dip into my real money and make a killing?

    Thanks in advance SBR peoples.

    If you can make a killing with real money then just do the same with the FP.

      OK, I hear that.

      But I can make a killing betting singles games. Aren't I supposed to be doing parlays or something with these freeplays?

        Parlays are for suckers

                Then you are throwing away money.

                For example, even by doing just 1 straight play at -110:

                You could bet like you are saying- Team (A) at $100FP to win $90.90 cash

                OR

                Bet your same team (A) in 4 separate 3-team parlays which will net you $150.00 cash with your same one team winning.

                Team A
                Team C vs Team D
                Team E vs Team F

                Just make 4 $25FP 3-team parlays using:
                ACE
                ACF
                ADE
                ADF

                I use WNBA lines that are with the half points to avoid ties.

                $59.10 more with no extra risk.

                  Never, ever do straight bets with it, unless you are playing big dogs, and you have to check the books rules on what the moneyline limits are for using the freeplays.

                  There are numerous ways to take more advantage of the freeplays, playing the other side at another book where you want to win at (scalping out the other side), doing the all combinations of (8) 3-team parlays, which nets you 75% cash, which some do to get cash for poker to other methods like the one I posted above, and there are several more which have been posted on this forum, just do a search.

                    I have a feeling if you do all 8 combos for 75%, the book may call it free-play abuse. I know it's not a written rule anywhere, but neither is it a written rule that you can't bet both sides with a FP, but the Wagerchief account on here confirmed that'd be free-play abuse, so I'd have to assume betting all 8 combos would be considered FP abuse as well.

                      I've never heard of anyone betting both sides of a game at the same book (definitely not with a freeplay), unless they were trying to get out of a bet and were willing to lose the vig.

                      I've only did the all sides (8) 3-teamers at Bookmaker for quick poker poker cash. They don't care.
