Freeplay reminder...

Pushes lose!

Had LSU +3 for a pretty large freeplay tonight. I was annoyed when LSU pushed, and pissed when I realized that it counts as a loss since it was a freeplay wager. My fault for not reading the fine print, but obviously will stick to half points in the future!

Only at the CRIS/Bookmaker Family. But it really is a sucky rule there.

i dont know of any place that a Bonus Play doesnt lose if it s a push, thats why its important to keep an eye on that, sometimes u might not like the choice because places I find are picky with what you can take or not take, for ie. I wanted to take West Kent mline but they wouldnt let me so i did take West Kent +3 cause I liked them to win the game and it was a strong play but normally would not do that

No place I know of besides the CRIS/Bookmaker family has that rule. Other places that have Bonus Plays refunds your money on a push.

do pushes lose at 5dimes? I know some books if you push a bet you get your freeplay back.

I think most places you have to remind them. Most books want to fleece you if they can.

Ask yourself..... how the hell is that honestly a "Bonus Play" if it is not really a play at all. (ties lose?)

I looked at 5D Rules and couldn't find it addressed. Ask before you use it. The Books I know from personal experience, the Bookmaker Family Push = Loss. The Youwager family Push = Loss. WagerWeb = Push and refund, Skybook = Push and Refund, 1Vice = Push and refund. If it's not specifically addressed in their rules, ask and document the answer.
