Don't be too sure that this will work out. I put my free plays on this special, and then went to add regular points to get up to the 350 max, but the software will not let me get the max down. It keeps telling me that I am over the limit, even tho I am not!

1350.
Yeee, you're ok. But anyone who buys points through the store and then places this bet will have an apple stuck in his mouth...I'll leave it to the imagination on what happens next.

Just for my elucidation, what difference does it make if the points one wanted to wager with were earned, won, borrowed, or bought from the store? Isn't the point of buying points to wager with them?

Non-Americans can just get cash for their points, via moneybookers (we can't get pizza, gift cards, etc, and a lot of electronics are impractical because of delivery and customs charges).

Are you over the 350 on the risk amount? I have done this before and it will lock you out of a second bet if you are over 350 either on the risk or win amount...

It will let you bet separate bets up to 350.
If you do a freeplay to win 100, you can do another 250 to win using regular points, for example.
Just remember to do always do 'risk' for underdogs and 'to win' for favorites to ensure you can get in the max.

I have 247 freeplay risked to win 205.83 and 120 points to win 100. So you must be correct. It would appear that there is a small glitch in the software. Too bad I took the other side of the special first. Now I can't get my middle attempt to pay the way I want! But thanks for the info! By the way, I did try to bet "to win" rather than "risk". I believe the glitch takes effect after placing a free bet as a "risk" bet.

using your freeplay on a straight bet is the worst way possible to use it at -110
you are not even getting a special anymore when doing that.

for freeplays, I typically just find underdog plays that I like, the bigger the better.
SBR's book has a higher limit than books like DSI, which I believe cap freeplay usage at +200. SBR's is like +1000 or even higher. I forget.
If you don't have any underdogs, do parlays.

Its +1000 at SBR. I believe DSI doesn't let you use freeplays on MLs, but does allow higher juice if its from a parlay or alternate spread.

Georgia +8 ?????
I thought you would give points to UGA rather than take them away.
You originally had Georgia at +20 and Louisiana State at -8, right????? [original post]

I just sent 1336 and now you have 24,412 at risk, you said you would take the first 27,000 so I hope you still take my action. Also, will send you the remaining 14 points as soon as I have them to make it easier for you to may me my 1,000.
Thanks.

warning, sbrjohn is SHARP. when he says the offer is closed and you ship him points 6 HOURS after he says it's closed, he will keep them either way. lsu doesn't cover-it's a loss, lsu covers-it's a gift to john.

You Sharp Devil, What the hell are you going to do with the extra 27,000 points? Isn't this a conflict of interest????
