Rollover really this hard?

I recently started gambling online for the first time and signed up at BetUS. I got a 30%/5x rollover bonus from depositing $1k (which I wouldn't have gotten if I knew I'd be locked in). So between my $300 free play and $1k cash, I have to hit $6500 in action to get out.

BetUS says rollovers are only calculated for - Sides and Totals for game periods only. Link: http://www.betus.com/about-us/member-benefits.aspx Does this mean if I bet on an under for a football game that the wager/win won't go toward rollover?

Also, does anyone have a link to a post explaining free play in depth? Is it a one time shot to win real cash or is it fake money that becomes real when you hit the rollover?

By game periods, I imagine they mean bets for a full game. Bets for half or quarter not counting. So your example of taking an under for a whole football game should be fine.

Books can find it more difficult to balance action on bets for the half or quarter, and they can also be more beatable. So it's understandable if they don't want to include those kinds of bets.

Depends on the book, but most become cash immediately once your play wins. It's a one-time shot in the sense it is gone if you lose your Freeplay. If you win the amount (minus juice) goes to your available funds in the account.

The fastest way to meet a rollver is to play let it ride in a dgs casino. Now that said, it isn't worth it since they off piss poor odds on a royal. If you play at 5 dimes, they offer true odds. Anyone with a clue knows why I say this.

rollovers are very very easy to do

5x roll is the highest that I would accept.

Under should be fine for the game. I know some allow first halfs to count as well. You should ask the CS for more info just so you know. But if you like quarters and halves don't shy away from it as play how you normally play and don't let the rollover dictate what you cna and can't play. GL with your bets

BetUS doesn't count anything but full game bets on major US sports (and even then MLB counts half) towards rollover.

Soccer gets nothing. Props nothing. Halves nothing.

I gave like 350k in action and still hadn't hit my 40k rollover.
