    If you bet responsibly, it takes FOREVER to clear even a 5x rollover. Who would have ever guessed!

    As a side note, heritage will hit you with a 10% bonus with a 5x rollover if you deposit over a certain amount, I think it might be somewhere around $500 and up maybe. You don’t ask for this, they apparently just do it. I don’t always bet responsibly, and full disclosure I don’t always withdraw (I know right), so I don’t really think about it often as it rarely pops up as I either clear the ro or go bust. However this time I actually crushed it for a bit, responsible style, tried to withdraw my initial stake, and was notified that I still have a long ass way to go to clear the rollover, and that was a week ago, and today I still have a long ass way to go! Fun times with bonuses am I right. Here’s to not going broke in the meantime

    5x is a gift.

    It's when you get limited to $1 dollar in the middle of trying to get your rollover that it really sucks.

    $5k bonus, 10x rollover, the you have to get there $1 at a time.

    It depends what you mean by responsibly.

    If 5000 is 50% of your roll, your betting 100 at 1%. Rollover is like 27500, it's like 300 bets or something.

    If you bet 2 baseball sides, and 2 totals a day, maybe a couple props, you can get it done in a month and a half or so.

    Never knew why people cared about rollover, it's not like your not going to bet anyway.

    If it's NFL plus NCAAF plus MLB, even easier to clear.

    If you get into MLB props, it will be done before you know it.

    I'm not positive as I'll just bet the full max deposit + bonus at Heritage and will clear it w/in the day even if it's 10x, but I think I get 10% for anything over $100 with 4x at Heritage.

    I’m going 2% almost exclusively. The few bets where I’ve raised the stakes I’ve of course lost but that’s a different topic altogether.

    But yeah a month and a half as far as what I’m used to is a long time to clear a rollover. But your point remains, I’m gonna be betting anyway so it ultimately doesn’t matter win lose or draw. Just surprised at how long 5x takes when you’re not just throwing money around as I tend to do haha

    Not at 2%! At Monday it’ll be 2 weeks and I’ll still be working on it. Probably will take another week after that. It’s coming off though…slowly but surely

    This is closer to my normal behavior. I’m not making max deposits lol but yeah similar strategy. And yeah whatever rollover there is disappears before you knew it was there. I just am trying to live life a little more carefully these days and see what happens

    Any decent rated offshore will reduce rollover requirements proportionately or just straight cash you out if they slash limits mid-rollover requirement in my experience

    Curious if any book has done this to you recently?

    Would be an obvious avoid for other customers if so imo

    Not an issue for me. I have to reload well before the roller over would ever apply.

    No, it wasn't recent. Most definitely a long time ago. In fact, I didn't even know SBR existed back then, lol.

    Betus was the culprit, but again it was very long ago.

    I've cleared 50x rollover easy without even needing to clear any rollover. Most books I simply will not withdraw until I get limited. Got a new book about 6 weeks ago and I've already played about 50x total deposits.

    You're actually good at this though. Im a 100% recreational player so you can imagine my and the books surprise. It's a highlight of my pitiful sports betting "career" lol

    5x may be easy to clear but for a 10% bonus it’s bullshit and is used to prevent hit and runs. Deposit $500 get a $50 bonus and your rollover is $2750. They can keep the $50 and I can withdraw when I please. At heritage I believe it’s for deposits over $100 and you can opt out of the bonus in my account—>preferences—> uncheck apply all eligible deposit bonuses to my account.

    Man, I skipped right over that part.

    10% bonus is pretty weak for the book to offer.

    I took a 50 percent bonus with Sportsbetting.ag with a rollover of about 15000 usd and I'm now about 60 percent complete in three days. The strategy is to go all in and parlay your initial deposit and bonus so in case you win, you actually have enough funds to roll with a fighting chance. Afterwards you can do one game at a time at about 1000 usd per bet and you'd clear and request a payout in no time.
