Dante said:right 1000 freeplay works like
if you put 1000 to win 900 ( or whatever)
and you win that bet your acct balance is 900$
you do not get the 1000 back
Christian said:actually, there's a better way to do it...
divide that $1,000 by 8 and make 8 separate 3-team parlays risking $125 on each of them, using every possible combination of the 3 games involved...
this way you'll win 1 of them and you'll win back at 6-1 odds and pocket $750 (instead of the $500 you HOPE to win by hitting 50% and straight betting)
just be sure to only bet 3 games that all have hooks in them (i.e. -3.5, -6.5, etc.) not even numbers so that way you can't have a tie in any of your parlays...
if you have any questions, ask DougJ, this is what he posted and it's a great strategy....it's a way to guarantee a 75% CASH return on that Bonus Play...
i think i explained everything correctly...if not, i'm sure someone will correct whatever i messed up on...
and like i said, credit goes to Doug....real smart strategy, i never even thought of it until he posted it!

drunkguy said:great strategy if you want to risk getting booted from that book
no way they are going to be happy with you playing 8 3-teamers to cover all your possibilities
patswin said:I want to make sure I understand this correctly - you pick 3 games with a .5 ending spread and bet both sides of each game in the parlays?
BaseballGuy said:Ok say you win a 1000 freeplay.
You essentially won 500 correct? I mean assuming you hit 50 percent of your wagers.
nimue77 said:If you play it right, it's really worth more like 700-800. I used some free-play today for a gauranteed 75% of its amount and I didnt need to make lots of plays to cover all possibilies - only 2.
Phigment said:Sure, you can also lock the profit with only two plays by taking a big ML dog at the freeplay book and the ML fav at another book. Look for two lines that are almost even and adjust the fav bet to whatever profit you'd like (i.e. lean to a side or balance the profits on both). This method will most likely also get funds out of the freeplay book which probably has a rollover to satisfy before any withdrawals.
Fishhead covered this same strategy a few weeks back.
