so i put a $100 in there to play with. i liked the sound of their 10% bonus win or lose because i felt like i would get "comp'd" like a real casino for my play no matter how i do. it turns out i misunderstood the 10% bonus. by hearing it was on win or lose i thought it was on every bet no matter the outcome of the bet as opposed to only being on losing bets like other sites do. i played some blackjack because i am a sucker for punishment even though i know online blackjack is rigged and actually did quite well. this allowed me to play with more come sunday. i had $290 to use on sunday's games.
i played with the whole $290 so i expected at the very least 10% back on my casino play plus $29 in my account for my sports bets.
it turns out the freeplay is based on your overall won/loss for the week, not each bet. for example, if you have winnings of 10 dollars and losses of 0 dollars, you would get 10% of 10 dollars back as freeplay at the end of the week.
what i dont like about this is it does not reward volume. i can have $100 in action, win $75 and lose $25, resulting in a win for the week of $50 and get $5 back. however, i can also have $1000 in action, win $501 and lose $499, and then get 10% back of the $2 win for the week.
there is no fine print explaining this. they make it seem like its a no bull reward but in reality to me that is a huge stipulation they should explain further. if the only freeplay they give is for when you either drastically win or drastically lose then its not worth the risk. most of the time i can put $1000 in and play with that for a couple of months going back and forth with wins and losses due to streaks. however, if i keep breaking even or winning minimal my reward is small.
keep in mind they give no loyalty points or freeplay otherwise. i for one like when a book gives me back something for playing as i feel appreciated and at least have something to show for my action. this book turned me right off with this. even if i misunderstood the bonus (which i think a lot of people will do) they should not make it seem like the winnings are endless when it comes to their weekly cashback.
