Yep, I do the same. I find it pretty pointless to use them for anything else.

**VegasInsider** · 01-06-11, 07:12 PM

Same. Just take the free cash.

Does buying cash require a roll over?

**trixtrix** · 01-06-11, 07:16 PM

back in the days when giftcards were worth less than sportsbook cash i think i've gotten 1k in walmart/bm/jcpennys etc.. giftcards from them, then they made cash cheaper.. don't get it, giftcards should by nature be cheaper than cash

not that i was complaining.. until they banned me from the pts system b/c i was not 'recreational' enough

**ZetaPsi808** · 01-06-11, 07:39 PM

save them until u have 90K betpoints which is good for $715 sportsbook cash with no rollover

**illfuuptn** · 01-06-11, 07:47 PM

Halfway to platinum level. Once I get there I'm instabuying the max freeplays I can. I think it'll b $750 like 3 times. $750 per 90k in wagers lol. But it's a fun little bonus when you already win.

I have cashed in enough BetPoints to get about $5000 in gift cards....from Amazon and gifts.com. Paid for all my Xmas gifts this year.

**FadePolice** · 01-06-11, 11:14 PM

Always use for cash too, just be careful they can be taken away at any time if they determine you to not be "recreational", so good idea to not let balance get too high. Unless you really are a donk.

**SteveB** · 01-06-11, 11:33 PM

No worries here....I am quite the donk

**stealthyburrito** · 01-06-11, 11:33 PM

when the hell did they add playboy??

is that a yearly subscription or just one mag?

**yisman** · 01-06-11, 11:41 PM

I'm trying to reach the top level at DSI so I can get things for a better price.

I keep grinding away...

I completely disagree.

Sportsbook cash should be cheaper than gift cards, otherwise everyone should get gift cards.

**Ace_of_Spades** · 01-06-11, 11:46 PM

I got automatic platinum at Bookmaker.

**yisman** · 01-06-11, 11:51 PM

How?

**obamaismyuncle** · 01-07-11, 12:02 AM

bookmaker sucks

I have no idea. And i'm playing with prize money too. Maybe because i'm doing well with the money.

**WeinketoWarrick** · 01-07-11, 12:09 AM

i'm platinum but have no idea why/how. been a member for quite some time, but only have 3,000+ betpoints. i only use them for football openers.

**will2survive** · 01-07-11, 12:11 AM

It's small pickings to me. Bookmaker sometimes doesn't appreciate longtime players

**Tuna Fish Riot** · 01-07-11, 12:16 AM

I'm gonna unload on pizzas.

**doublej95** · 01-07-11, 12:17 AM

i heard they was offering more betpoints if you used your mobile, not sure if they are still running that promo or not.

**SteveB** · 01-07-11, 12:32 AM

That promo is now over.

**Ace_of_Spades** · 01-07-11, 12:37 AM

Is Betonline the same as Bookmaker with the points system?

**yisman** · 01-07-11, 12:55 AM

DSI/Bookmaker had it going for maybe a month where you got double betpoints if you used the mobile site.

I never did.

**Waterstpub87** · 01-07-11, 12:58 AM

take the cash every time

**BChrisB** · 01-07-11, 01:00 AM

I think the most I got from them was $150 but that was about 3 years ago and the conversions where a bit different. The lowest payment of $2.50 for 500 betpoints is kind of joke now

ADDED: You get that for platinum which I am, I think it's less if your below a platinum member... I think (too lazy to log in right now) the lowest is $2.25 for 500 betpoints.

I used to make a nice profit from BookMakers loyalty program, but now they only count sides and totals. I play moneylines, so I only get credit for hockey and baseball bets now. A Damn shame. About half a year ago, Diamond took away my betpoints after I had lost a couple of deposits ( while allowing the betpoints to build up ), classifying me as non-recreational. This theft caused me to stop using Diamond. Then, a couple months ago, I needed to make a deposit to make me cash-eligible in an SBR contest. While setting up the deposit, the Diamond rep asked if I wanted my betpoints cashed in. So it seems that while I was not interested in playing, they had returned my points and were willing to give me a bonus --- there was no mention of the non-recreational label. I have a feeling that someone in mid-level management made a decision to save some money in the loyalty program, and then someone in upper-management figured out that perhaps the sportsbook would be better off attracting players than making them mad.

**VTranX** · 01-07-11, 03:24 AM

i had saved over 250k on dsi. cashed out for about 1500-2000 cant remember.

**MortalLock** · 01-07-11, 03:26 AM

i have like 39k bookmaker points i should cash them in

**bill2266** · 01-07-11, 04:39 AM

i got about 18,000 and some change, going to use them when my account gets low

**HedgeHog** · 01-07-11, 08:21 AM

Cash back is the best option.

**magynuck** · 01-07-11, 10:03 AM

long time since i qualified for betpoints but always took cash

No. Gift cards sell below par bc they're typically mass discountedp

**konck** · 01-07-11, 10:05 AM

I always take the cash back option at 11 dollars

**BIGDAY** · 01-07-11, 10:06 AM

I always take the cash also. Hard to beat that.
