Freeplays Are Not Really Free(in My Opinion)

THEY ARE MONEY YOU CAN USE TO MAKE WAGERS BUT ONCE USED THEY NO LONGER ARE YOURS-JUST A WORD TO OTHERS WHO THINK THEY HAVE A LOT OF FREEPLAY MONEY!

:finger23:

If you win, the money is yours.

What are you implying here?

In fact, if used properly, a FREEPLAY is equilevant to much more than 50% CASH over the longterm of what the face value of the freeplay is.

betting 3 team parlays they are worth about 85% of the bonus off the top of my head.

OK WHAT I MEAN IS, FOR EXAMPLE ON ANY SINGLE WAGER, LET'S SAY YOU MAKE A STRAIGHT 100.00 WAGER TO MAKE 90.00. IN ACTUALITY YOU ONLY GET TO KEEP 90.00 IN YOUR ACCOUNT. WELL AT LEAST THAT IS IN MY CASE.

Would advise to only wager UNDERDOG Moneyline PRICES with freeplays/matchplays if wagering straight wagers.

75% if you play it with 3-teamer all 8 ways

Exactly what I did with $300 of MP I won at JAM. They don't let me parlay ( at all ), so I had to go that route. I broke it up, only hit one, turned it into $155.

I always use Bonus Plays on parlays and underdogs, as to not lose the "value" of the Bonus Play....

Good advice

Bet a ML dog with the Bonus Play and bet the ML favorite at another book and turn it into cash if the favorite wins. You still come out ahead

Yeah, moneyline is the way to go. Done one for today. Got $200 freeplay on 49ers +425 at one book, possible win $850.

Put $800 on Rams -450 at another book, possible win $178.

So, 49ers win, $50 profit; Rams win, $178 profit.


Use freeplays well and you're in the money. :toast:
