      One more negative thing they use to f u c k me. They use the lesser amount on the wager to accumulate the rollover. Example : My 1st bet was the Clippers -130 1002/771. They told me 771 counts toward the rollover, and tonight I bet -115 Clippers 1150/1000, they said again they will take the lesser amount regardless even if you play spreads, totals or +ML plays. Unf u c k i n g real guys .........

              Bro this is standard procedure for most offshore books. This is EXACTLY how they prey on the uninformed. Next time, just say NO to bonuses or free cash. ONLY FREE POINTS OR REDUCED JUICE if playing at BI. Good luck, buddy!

                  I'm use to it being just adding the fp winnings to the rollover not multiplying them. Really this is standard procedure. Not where I play it hasn't .........

                    you dont lose the freeplay at bi on a push.. if it pushes let them know and they will credit it back

                      i only take cash bonuses at bi never the freeplay. i learned my lesson the hard way. you deposit 100 get a hundred freeplay and lets say you lose the freeplay then you still have to roll over 200x12 which is 2400 hard to do on a 100. Also the other day i lost my 100 and then hit a 300 dollar winner on my freeplay so i have to roll 400x12 which is 4800 on 300 in my account. The rollover on freeplay winnings in my own opionion is horrible. I like their cash bonuses though. i can get 20 percent with 6 rollover or 10 percent with 3 rollover which is cash and not a freeplay. i like that better. Overall its a wonderful book though

                        I JUST wrote a thread about betislands.com "rollover" requirements before seeing this one. I completely agree...their rollover requirements aren't worth it. I'm probably going to deposit and take NO BONUS at all.

                              this is how 90% of books calculate it.. pretty standard bud

                              this also is Standard... everyone uses LESSER of Risk to win. so if u bet a -500 ml for 5k to win 1k.. it only counts as 1k rolled over.. makes sense now eh?

                                  No it doesn't make since when you bet sides & totals at -110 and they only count the lesser amount toward rollover, another thing I haven't dealt with.

                                    curious i havent ask but if you bet 1000 to win 200 and you lose the bet do they count the 1000 or the 200 toward the roll.

                                    Also how come if you bet 100 to win 100 and you lose it counts as a rollover but if you bet a 100 and it pushes it doesnt, shouldnt it count because you still risked it
