          forget $750 FP... even $500 FP is better than 350 cash..

            If you bet it all on one play , not much difference at all.

              I thought I remember reading somewhere that the freeplay is essentially 50% of it's value in cash terms. If this is true then half of the $750 comes in at $375. Sorry I can't detail it further in confirming the source but I'm thinking the free play is likely the better of the two in 'net' terms.

                    let me rephrase: if you have no clue what you are doing, its the cash

                    if you have a bit of sense, or any clue as to how to use the "search" function or google, then freeplays

                      Cash because you get the principle back and there's no restrictions

                          Take the cash and the rollover is a lot less.

                            if you know how to use freeplays you should be able to extract more than $350 value from it

                            else, take the cash

                              The free play for sure...especially if you can use it on moneylines.

                                Wow....Surprised at the reply's.

                                3 - $50 bets

                                All win 3-0

                                $350 cash bonus is now $500 cash..

                                $750 Free play is now $600 FP and cash in hand is now $150

                                $500 > $150

                                I'll take the cash every time...

                                            You are an SBR Pro and are supposed to know better. In its most simplistic form, using the (8) 3 team parlays involving all sides of 3 separate games nets you 75% cash. Therefore $750 Freeplay = $562.50 cash without any risk and not caring who wins. But there are still better ways. There is NO WAY that $350 is the better way to go. To the OP, do a search and you will see them.

                                                  i would take the cash. say you win all the 750 FP, then you would be rolling over your deposit plus the 750 instead of just 350 they would have given you. So basicly you can take the 750 freeplay and have to rollover another 400 8 times instead of just the 350 outright. you will have to win that many more bets or place that many more wagers and that is how they will take all the money back

                                                        Truly amazing the posters that would throw away money by taking the cash over a freeplay. They are a sportsbooks best friend.

                                                              One would never waste freeplay $ on straight wagers unless they were huge dogs or scalping it out. And most books now limit the dogs to around +200.
