bonus withdrawal policies

Sportsbook.ag allow this?? I find that surprising if true.

1) balance withdrawal any time even if bonus is not fully rolled over (understood that unrolled over bonus would be lost)

Are you allowed to keep anything from the bonus when you do this?

Yes... I've gone through over 10 deposit/withdraw cycles and it has worked every time. It's a high rollover requirement (35X), but you can withdraw whatever portion of the bonus you've rolled over up to that point.

There are definite downsides though... I've already mentioned the D- SBR rating. Also, they impose a 5% withdrawal fee and very bad sportsbook odds. Hence, I'd like another book with liberal bonus withdrawal but less downside.

That's interesting. Kind of opens them up to smart bonus tactics you'd think.

Anyway, I don't think there is anywhere else I know of that works that way.

The rating stems from a historical situation where they did not pay a lot of people, relating to correlated parlays. And more recently they have gone through months of excessive delays in making payouts. If it's working for you there I would not let the SBR rating put you off with NFL season approaching (as they will have lots of cash on hand). Watch out as that season ends though. As that is typically when the slower payouts begin.

But it sounds like you are pushing the limit a bit. There have been instances where posters have claimed they have been told excessive withdraw/deposits to claim the reload bonus is not allowed.

YouWager probably the closest you will come. Don't think you will find any book that will use casino toward rollover for sportsbook. But YouWager does allow you to withdraw winnings at any time and gives continual small bonuses and additional bonus opportunities throughout the year.

People that bet at YouWager seem to love it and has a high rating and has been around a long time.

Yeah I would recommend Youwager as well. Like the other guy said you can always cash out winnings at any time. Why play with that sports book.ag garbage book worrying about if and how long it will take to get paid?Youwager will pay you in a matter of hours not weeks. I've been with them 15 years and never had any issues getting paid.

Youwager has gotten shady in my eyes. I've been with them for over 8 years.
I deposit over $500 a month. I noticed my loyalty points weren't being applied so I called to find out.
And now they tell me it was a management decision not to offer me any more loyalty points. I asked why and asked for a manager and they refused to transfer me to a mangager or even give me a explanation.

I'm sticking with 5dimes never had issues with them.
Anyone else had this issue

Loyalty points aren't that great anyways. They give you the same amount whether you bet $1 or $2000. I just like Youwager because they pay quick and have been around a long time. I hope they have the NFL handicapping contest this year. I haven't seen it yet.

Thanks for the info all. Scary to think that sportsbook.ag can't cover all withdrawals at end of football season... they at best don't understand how much profit they can take out and at worst are running a ponzi scheme. Youwager is great... I have relatively low limits there ($500), but it seems I'm reaching the upper limit of the type of bonus arbitrage I can get away with anyway. When I just read the rules on betonline, it's explicitly forbidden anyhow.

I've been with Sportsbook/Carbon for many years. Before bitcoin it was a lost cause almost. Checks/wires were basically 3-4 months to get paid, maybe. They've paid me over $100k over the course of the last year or so. They pay relatively quickly and the 20/30% cash bonuses are great. The 5% fee on payout sucks but they pay usually within 24 hours so I don't complain.
