Best thing to do with freeplay? How to cash it.

8 3 teamers, every possible combination, better check with your book though, some will void the winnings if you do this.

Most books will void the winnings for this. It is considered bonus abuse.

No they won't, I did it before

I try to keep it small mix them with other straight bets and rip the cash out slowly so they can't catch.
this way, only 75% out.
There's a way with 76-78% ... Anyone know?

LMAO. Bonus abuse? No, it's called being smart. No real book that allows parlays on freeplays will have a problem with it.

I know BJ doesn't care if you cash out 75% of your FP with the 3 teamer.

Well certain books will consider betting both sides of a straight bet with your freeplay to be "freeplay abuse", and that's called being stupid, so I could certainly see how a book could call it "freeplay abuse" if you were to use this method.

you could also take 8 ML underdogs at +600 or greater. hope 1 wins....

Most books don't allow anything more than +/-200 though, but would be a good strategy if you could get away with it.

Only a shit book would care if someone bet both sides using straight bets wit a freeplay.

You would think so, but I remember a thread on here a while back where someone asked a book whether you could bet both sides and the book said they'd call that FP abuse. I believe it was either BetOnline or WagerChief since those are the only two I've seen post on here.

I doubt any book would consider it an issue if you're cashing out a couple hundred bucks, but if you manage to go on an insane run and make like $10K+, I could see how a book would come back and accuse you of FP abuse. Better safe than sorry IMO.

all books are SHIT books now !

No decent book would have a case in a dispute. BetUS and BetED and other thieving shit books might look for a reason not to pay, but they already steal from anyone that wins.
