what's better - 100% free play or 50% cash?

[turkstock]

I feel the free play is better simply because your getting more of it. I'm sure there is plenty of discussion as to why cash bonus is better. Please give me your take
thanks

I think you are better off with whichever one has a smaller rollover (at least for this example) Reasoning is if you have a $100 freeplay and bet it all on a standard -110 line and you win. You win $90 and change, since the free play wager is not returned. If you have a $50 cash bonus, bet it all, you also win $90 and change because the original wager is credited back. So essentially you are going to end up with the same amount either way, thus the smaller rollover is the better option IMO

if you use freeplays correctly they are the better value when half the amount as cash

I try to use freeplays in a 2-3 team parlay to get more value if the book allows it.

100% Freeplays are a better value if used in a parlay compared to 50% cash.

The downside of freeplays is that you can't use them for horse racing.

A freeplay is worth 60-65% of its value if you know what you're doing. So to answer your question, i'd take the freeplay. With that being said, it does depend on which book you're talking about. B- or better book and I take the freeplay. Less reputable book and I may take the cash.

This is wrong. 100% freeplay is the same as 75% cash. Bet all 8 scenarios of a 3-team parlay and you win one of them. At $100, you bet 12.50 on each leg and then you have $75 in cash.

the offer is 4.5x rollover either way - its a 500 deposit max, but its a great bonus promo
