    Just cashed in all my betpoints at Bookmaker...
    Had 32k in betpoints left in my account from last years NFL. Had totally forgotten about them. Don't use BM much at all after football season.

    Just cashed them in for $200 freeplay!
    It's like finding that $20 bill in your coat pocket when you haven't worn it in months.

    Nothing quite like finding free money!

        Thanks VI & Roxx.

        DSI & BM are both BetCris books, so I imagine their programs are the same.

        Good luck, boys!

                What is BetJamaica's? I have thought about joining there when it's time to renew for SBR PRO.

                  Are you sure you got a free play? I am only seeing cash back, not free plays.

                      I wonder if that BetJam thing is deposit-only.

                      I bought cash there with SBR points and have been placing wagers.

                      At DSI, I have less than 4,000 betpoints despite depositing there in September (I think), because their lines are usually worse than I can get at 5 Dimes and Bodog.

                          their lines are atrocious, especially come summertime....send betjam an email with paradise loyalty club in the subject line.

                              that's the best when shit like that happens.. are you going to slow play it.. or go all in once or twice.. then slow play it?

                              when stuff like this happens to me.. i push all in once or twice then just take it easy from there.. its found money...

                                They will basically give them to you however you want if you ask for it. I am sure they charge a fee for cash, and its only $195 to begin with, so I just went for a free play. Not that I'm counting on it...but their freeplays have NO rollover on them!

                                That's about what 3 beers will cost you at the Ballpark! No problem, pal. I'll gladly buy you some beers if I even cash out 1/2 that!

                                  I'm planning on playing it pretty small. My history with "all-in's" is about 98% -EV. I always lose all-in's!

                                  We'll see how this goes. The trouble is, when you know its free money.....its hard to not roll the dice!!

                                    I found a $5 bill under my car seat yesterday when I was cleaning my car out.

                                    Yesterday was a good day.

                                      I would just bet it the way I normally make bets. No reason to go all in just because it's a freeplay.

                                        Yiz......I'm still counting on you making sure I'm fully aware of all your plays.

                                        No more of this bullsh*t like that Ducks over 5 bet I missed the other night that you posted in PT like 4 hours before gametime.

                                        That type of selfishness is not going to cut it!!

                                          lol opie, I only start a thread about a play when I'm confident about it, which means about one thread a month.

                                              DSI is great with them betpoints. Nothing better than getting compensated for doing something you're already going to do anyways. If you put in your bets on your mobile phone it's even better, because you get double the amount.

                                                  It's just a shame you are really paying for the freeplay anyways because of how the lines are. But not many books have even decent reward programs like this. I just hate the books that only let you redeem 2 times a year and your account must be active for at least 12 weeks or bla bla bla..

                                                        Not as bigtime as it seems I assure you. I got like a 1500 pt bonus during one weekend, and several 500 pt bonuses. I also took advantage of placing bets on my phone for double points, and triple points over thanksgiving and the championship games.

                                                        I know it seems like a lot of points....but trust me, its small time. I bet like $100 bucks a game most of the time. Also, I lose most of the time!! So I got that goin for me.....which is nice!!

                                                          I should do mobile betting, but I don't usually use a mobile device, so I've never gotten the double points (or the triple points that they had once for a few days).

                                                          opie, how do you get bonuses? I've never gotten betpoint bonuses. I'm at 3,800 and change at DSI, but almost all of that was from football season. The last two months I've bet maybe $100 there.

                                                            Few times they run a reload bonus where you get like 500 points if you deposit at least $300 by fri.....stuff like that.

                                                            Its mostly for squares like me that don't do a bunch of line shopping.

                                                            Yisman......just gave you a shout-out on my latest vid which I just put up on Players Talk. Check it out...

                                                                    Was this not the +EV way to conduct this business??
