    Is HRWager worth the 200% freeplay?

    I mean.... I am not a huge bonus guy, I rather play at Heritage and 5Dimes where I know I can be paid the next day I'd I win. But I must say that I have just as strong of and urge to deposit $250 at HRW knowing I have $250 cash and $500 freeplay to play with. Yes, many of you are going to have opinions on staying away from bonuses, but it's its simply not that easy when you are getting the bonus from a reputable book where you know you will be paid from.

    Any thoughts

    I think it's a more than fair offer, I think they are a good book though. If you are ok with the rollover then it's worth it IMO

    What are the rollover terms and how long do you think it would take you, betting normally, to complete it?

    I think I would feel safe if I thought I could request a withdrawal before the Superbowl. Same way I'd think about any smaller book really.

    If this is the same as 1Vice, which it probably is, you have to bet $100 per week 52 weeks per year. That means you will be overbetting and betting on stuff you know nothing about. But the bonus basically gives you even odds which is hard to lose to. However, if you get ahead and they call you up and tell you that you are just too sharp for them and they are paying you out, there really is no bonus. It's a sucker deal. If you lose they win. If you win, they just pay you out and cheat you on the bonus. In that case, better to go with 5Dimes and Heritage.

    There are multiple threads about 1Vice pulling this. The two are two peas in a pod. I haven't read much up on HRWager. But anyone going for this bonus should go in with both eyes open and ready to get a fast one pulled on you. I like bonus but don't trust this outfit. The poster wanted thoughts and those are mine. You don't see any of the big outfits even willing to give a 100% bonus. If somebody is giving you 200%, they plan on screwing you.

    that is a nice way to get to know HRWAGER and post up. an excellent option for USa post up players.


    George the owner of this HRWAGER brand is top notch. I would suggest it if you are adding a book to your collection. they have some Unique things there.

    this shop by the way has nothing to do with another excellent choice to add a book 1vice.com those two shops have totally different lines, software and owners. no current relationship other than the owners obviously know each other from past interactions .

    good luck on whatever bets you make and choices you make offshore. I know its always a risk to send REAL money to anything offshore as the customer always takes the full risk..something some book owners and forums forget at times when helping with disputes....

    Anyone can do the research I have. There is tons of stuff out there. And you will find the usual cast of characters in every thread giving them the thumbs up. If you want the names, go pull up the threads. Everyone has to do their own research on these places. I think you will find the bonus works exactly like 1Vice and if it does, I think you can expect the same outcome. I've crossed them off based on what I've read.

    I did well playing at HRWager and have been paid out with no problems. 200% is a great offer and I would not hesitate to deposit assuming you bet enough to meet the rollover.

    rollover x 16
    200 deposit, 400 freeplay is 9600 roll

    If there are no betting restrictions (like only +odds bets etc) then I guess that's a nice sounding deal. Although for me betting normally it would take until March to complete and like I said earlier I'd be a little wary of big offers toward the end of football season when I think bonus books like HR will be under extra withdrawal pressure.

    It's really a 48x rollover of the deposit amount too, which is how we should compare these rollovers between books.

    I played with them about a year ago. Stand up shop. Got a low 4 figure payout within a couple days. They offered me the 200% bonus but I opted for a 100% bonus with a lower RO.

    Thats a good point, it IS a 48x rollover which is insane. Freeplays shouldnt count toward rollover, cash only should.

    I played there and won and they booted me but they have paid me with no problem. they will only pay you $700 per week with *******. the other payoff ***** will take 30 days to arrive no sooner. 1 free ***** every calendar month. 200% is a good deal though

    Ha, ha. I'm sure you were! This is after all the 1Vice and HRWager marketing department here, Why don't you pull up one of the 25 or so of your own threads where people post that they were called by "Griff" and told they were too sharp or as the most recent poster I believe reported he was told he was "unprofitable customer." I learned it all right here.

    My cashouts with them exceed my deposits, and I have not been cut off. I have always been paid P2P within 3 days.

    I mean, why would you not try it? If you win and they cut you off, you will get paid and you'll be right back where you are now.

    I don't get the, "I won't play there because they might make me stop playing there" angle. Have also never heard of them cutting limits mid rollover. Their limits are low to begin with.

    Just don't . If you feel you can make the rollover , you don't need it . You never know when your gonna need money. Having access to it is important.
