    Sportsbetting.ag Free Play Rules

    Opened an account at sportsbetting.ag the other day and tonight found out that their free play rule #5 stinks. It states that any push on a free play is graded as a loss. So tonight I took second half of Utah/Arizona game to go under 24. They scored 24 and I get a loss. Its like if I take over I have to take over 24.5 and if I take under I have to take under 23.5. No, I didn't read all the rules first but things like this are just assumed and I've NEVER heard of this at any other book. Has anyone else?? Please let me know. Anybody have experience with sportbetting.ag ?

    Like you said man, gotta check the rules- each book has different free play rules- sportsbetting recently changed where you can't bet parlays anymore either which also blows dick.

    This is fairly common.

    Thread in the last week talking about DSI rules that include it.

    A freeplay push loses in SBR Book as well.

    I'd guess 50% of offshores grade a freeplay push as a loss.

    I had a couple of pushes using freeplay in parleys, that the rest of the parley won so it was a win. then had to message SBR because it shows a negative credit at risk and would now not take any bets til' the negative risk is gone. that's why I remember these parleys. this has happened at least 2 or 3 times. had no idea a push ends up a loss when using freeplay in a straight wager here at SBR.

    Yeah, just make sure you bet something with a half-point on it.

    Bit I'll tell you right now, wait until you try to get a payout! Then you won't give a damn about the free play.
