    Default Anyone want to look into this more for me?

    http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/sh...gonew=1#UNREAD

    This makes absolutely no sense. I was betting on NFL games all last season so I want to get started again, but can't see this being legit. I know Mansion is a big sportsbook/poker room that should be reliable but this is a bit much.

    Can anyone do some research into this for me? I'd like to bet $1100 risk free... $2100 if they win, no loses if they lose.

    Also you can hedge the bet between 2 sites... bet $500 at Pinnacle on Miami and $1100 at Mansion and you win about $450 no matter who wins.

    WTF?

    how could that make sense. Wouldnt everyone with a credit card be alllll over that. Its bassically u can choose for free what team u want to win, then if they do u make $1100, if not...nothing happens.

    There has to be a catch, doesnt there

    No catch at all. Im lumping on for a $1000 freeroll.

    Thanks!

    Phoenix: Only gamblers would do this (Some may be profitable - but all are gamblers). If I went and told my mum now, mum give me $1100 and watch this match. If Steelers win I give you $2100 if not I give you a refund. She would say "oh I don't know, sounds scary, what if I lose it all". So would most people.

    They want high stakes gamblers on there site. That's all there is to it.

    Looks legit. I'd try it out and leave after my $1k bets are done or that one bet they allow or whatever. Stick to a larger, more reputable book for long term betting. I took all of my money away from BOS and moved it over to Sportbook.com. Pretty sure that Bodog has a book as well. Ladbrokes is very trustworthy as well.

    gder,

    the promo is still open.. they just closed off betting for it over the weekend.. it will open back up on monday..

    you can also hedge the bet on sports interaction.. sign up for that thru http://www.boogster.com/main.asp and u can get 120$ thru the promo and +10% up to 100 on sports interaction as ur initial deposit bonus. So like 53$ bonus off the sportsbook if u deposit just the right amount to hedge the bet ($530ish).

    Also you can sign up for Mansion through www.pokersavvy.com and get a free 90$ from their promo. Thats a total of 90+120+53 = +$263 free money from bonuses.. plus whatever u lock in from the bet.. which is probably like $475-$480..

    thats a total of nearly +$740 of +evness

    I think ill put 300 into bodog and get 10%. I signed for mansion a week ago. Still aint thinking in the bonus mentality. think ill put 1.1k in mansion, and 300 in bodog. unfortunatly netteler effed up when i tried taking 500 out of stars, so I cant hedge correctly.

    thanks for the info

    i should add, the reason for doing it @ bodog is I wanna make my own site, and part of it depends on different reviews for rooms, so I figure this is good excuse.
