For your first bet in Illinois. Temporary registration online and not having to show up in person at the casino lasts until Sept 16th or 19th. I forgot which one.

So you deposit $1000 and lose it on your first bet, $1000 will be credited back in your account within 72 hours. You cant withdraw your money right after. Here is the kicker I have been reading and I'm not sure how correct I am, you need to gamble that $1000 you got 1X because technically its still considered a promotional bonus. Can anybody confirm this?

Vice Versa, you place your first bet $1000 to win $1000, you get your winnings of $1000 but have to gamble that 1x before withdrawal.

Can I get an AMEN? I dont know.

I'm actually reading the fine print now. If you win your $1000 first bet, you dont need to play it 1X. You can withdrawal your $2000 in the example I put forth. Its only if you lose it gets credit back as a site credit and then you're required to bet it 1X before withdrawal.

Those terms aren't that bad. Also site credit is generally better than free play since the free play you have to bet in one shot.

WishWasPro spelled it out correctly that's how NJ was. Hit your $1k bet, take it all out if you want the next day. Lose and you have a 1x rollover. Ours was $500 max though.

Funny I just got an email from them but for 100% match cash bonus - - $50 max lol

That's brutal. Everything all new here. They are luring in the gamblers here.

This is one where Im just going to wait and put it on a alternate spread or total at +200 or above.

Yeah they love those, they pump the shit out of them on local sports radio here. "You can get the world champion Kansas City Chiefs +101 points, you can't lose!" No mention whatsoever its a $50 max, so basically a $45.45 bonus for being at DK.

sounds like a good promo even if you have to roll it once. Heck, offshore you would have to roll it 16 times before you can cash out.
Are you restricted to making that bet on a nfl game, or could you put it on a higher ML ? I would try to find a high ml bet for that wager if its possible

Yeah. Anything. Just if you lose you need to roll over your $1000 1X before withdrawing it.

I will definitely use it on a a crazy bet. Alt spread or total. Have until end of year. More than likely I will use it on a soccer game alt total over 3.5 goals on a total of 2 or 4.5 goals on a 2.5 to 3.

You can use it on anything really. They have player and game props I see as well. Will Mahomes throw for 3 TDs and chiefs win etc...

Actually that Mahomes 3 td and KC win prop is only +144.. i wouldnt even do that .

That's a terrible prop, but I'm sure they are getting action on it. You guys need more books in IL and then you get some good boosts, albeit for small action. Like in CO you can get Mahomes 300+, 3 TDs and Chiefs win for +270 at Fox, or just go to MGM and 300+ is all you need him to do for +200 instead. You find a lot of those where you think ok this isn't a bad offer, then go to another book and they have almost same bet at better odds.

But yeah in what you mentioned, you only get the freebet if you lose then you want a longshot bet so you are likely to lose, but if you win its a nice payday. A lot of the first bet free bet offers now are you get them whether you win or lose so it changes the dynamic.

I looked into the promo - your first bet in the risk free one - if you bet $1K then that's it, if you bet $20 that's it too. The catch is that if you lose you get that $1K credited back and you have 14 days to bet it, after that it's gone. You would also have to fund your account with the full $1K - you're betting your own money - it's just a credit back if you lose.

Thanks merlin. I didnt catch that 14 day stipulation if you lose you needed to bet it before that time. I didnt deposit yet I will wait until we see what's going on and get a feel somewhat

Remember, your first bet is the one, so you cant make a get a feel bet just to test things out.

I heard they have a modest bonus, but the books are coming fast and furious this week. William Hill, BetFred and Score all this week. PointsBet still not here yet even though they are building their HQ here, don't quite get that. I know 365 and Barstool in a month or two. Can't keep up with them all, but I'll get the bonuses for them all in due time. Most are just free bets, I just hedge those out.
