If I recall, the same thing happened last year at WSEX.

Whatever the case, WSEX is pure class and anybody that is anybody has an account with them.

WSEX VERY CLASSY MOVE....on your part..
i have not funded for football yet but you guys are first on my list.. thankyou for the free 20 bucks in my account..

oldmanTED · Aug 26, 2004

Currently running a 10% bonus on all deposits through September 12 and Week 1 of the NFL will have reduced juice of -105. Hope they consider continuing the reduced juice throughout the season.

IDENTITY · Aug 26, 2004

oldman - do you sometimes play the limits?

oldmanTED · Aug 26, 2004

Identity:

Yes!

IDENTITY · Aug 27, 2004

football limits sir? the limits?

oldmanTED · Aug 27, 2004

Identity:

To answer your question more specifically. Have I "sometimes" placed bets as follows:

NFL:

30,000 on Sides: No (I have bet 5 figures however)
5,000 on Totals: Yes
10,000 on 1st Halfs: No (I rarely bet halfs)
2,000 on Moneylines: Yes

MLB:

I rarely bet baseball. Mostly during the playoffs. The amount is generally 3 figures maximum.

Hope this answers your question.

WSEX has always been rock solid, and a top notch book in my opinion.

This is the first time I see they are offering 10% cash bonus on reloads.

I heard Olympic is also offering 10% relaod cash bonus

betmonkey · Aug 30, 2004

WSEX, Olympic and CARIB are al offering 10% reload bonuses...CARIB only if you haven't had a withdrawal for the month.

ROB FUNK:

They just started running the new $1 tourneys untill the start of football. They were offering a $1 tourney and all you had to do was beat 9 others for $50. They also have a morning "Freeroll" every morning at 10am EST. Always losts of action there....but NOT at Bowmans....lol They don't even offer a no limit tourney of any kind. And, I'm not sure they even have ANY kind of NL games on their site at all...They all seem to be limit..
