This concerns me a little. I just don't see how they can continue to hand out these large bonuses. Even books that never were known for large bonuses have been offering them.

Where in particular ?

The only real large bonus I have seen is the 50% cash at Tcbets.

A couple years ago there were several big name books which gave 100 % Cash bonus with a $500 limit. Heritage sports was one of them.

keep in mind however that most of these books that are offering these big sign-up bonuses also now have a 5X rollover requirement as opposed to the 3X rollver which most of these other books offer which are only giving 10%.

Harrington, its not just you. The same books that are giving away 20% are also paying the fees to get the money (10% avg.) and a 10 to 15 % reload bonus on top of the initial 30% they gave away. I'm sorry but for all the bonus lovers out there this is a recipe for disaster and the books THP% of 4.5% cannot overcome these perks.

Simply because they know internet wagering has exploded, and football is the key time of year for most bettors, and with so many books competing with each other, it's about the only way for some of them to draw interest to their book.

In the past bonuses were greater. Seems many books are offering a little better bonus for football promotions, but many are just using the same bonus they offered throughout the year. I think most of the shakeout in books has occured. Most of the shady books have been exposed by now and no one plays there anymore.

Always beware of Omni/Little Nasa-they are the biggest crooks out there.

I think a few more books this year are giving away the 50% type MP or bonus. but majority are around the industry standard still of 10-20% ....

STICK with solid shops and regardless of how much bonus money you get, you will be fine.

I rather take the lower juice books instead of bonuses. In the long run betting at Pinnacle, Canbet, PanAm and a few others are better than bonuses.
