Thanks, so it would probably be best to just bet the Steelers before gametime in case Mansion decides to take the offer off of the table, lol.

Mansion are as solid as any book out there, they are spending a ton on aggresive promos/marketing at the moment.

They've done a similar thing with soccer for lesser amounts and maybe it's workikng for them. If it has to be a $1100 then at the least they're getting players who are comfortable depositing that amount. Plus they must love the other side. You're right, they're basically giving away $500.

Reading the terms it doesn't look like this is just for new accounts, so I agree it's a bit of a head-scratcher.

Steelers cover the bet, you win a dime.
Steelers lose the bet, your risk amount is refunded by Mansion.

Nothing easier then that.

Good deal Mansion.

No, not on "a team", on the Steelers, the way I read it.

You put up the $1100 just like you're making a normal bet. If your bet wins, no rollover, etc. If your bet loses, they will give you the money back 3 days after the game.

i'm a little leary of this sounds to good to be true .......either that or more money than brains, surely 10-20 million that they could lose on this could be more effectively spent marketing? Maison is what B rated book and there has been some problems with bets missing last few weeks.


So is everyone on board here? i'm unsure

Mansion has been giving away money for two years in ways that made no sense. But they have paid outs tens of millions, so if they want to give away a fraction of that, up to them.

This offer is beyond to good to be true. I will not do this simply cause of the state of the industry.I think the industry is unstable at this point. I realize Mansion is strong. I just do not understand why they would do this. When something looks to good to be true, Its usually cause it is. What does SBR say ?

imo, it makes much more sense to bet it now (if you are willing to bet it at all) ... line moves wont really affect anything in terms of their promotion (unless they pull it).

I played the 1,100 at mansion -5 and elswhere for 500 +5. Any change in line doesn't change anything.

If you are going to play it best to play sooner rather than later because they may pull the offer any time. 1000 people, 10000 maybe.

The line movements are going towards Miami, big time:

When you think about it, what Mansion is really doing is making a huge bet on Miami. I guess they're gamblers.

Isnt it better to back miami at 5.5 incase of a draw?

Mansion have a £34mil sponsorship deal in the UK soccer premier league with Totenham Hotspur, last year they sponsored Manchester Utd if your worried about how solid they are.

No, it isn't. Only 3% of games end with a margin of victory of exactly 5 pts. You'd be paying a lot more (than 3%) for the 1/2 pt.

Any chance Mansion moves the line off Steelers -5 -110?

Everyone else has Steelers -4 1/2 -110 or better. I realize Mansion wants the extra half point, or anything else they can get to mitigate potential losses. I'd still like to get the best price, if I can get it.

In theory if everyone keeps betting on Steelers -5 it should move to -5.5

I guess so, they are watching pre season and preseason doesnt mean shit especially when a team(like Pitt) has 19 of their starters back.

Culpepper probably will have 3 turnovers in that game...

Do the Dolphins have a big advantage with Capers and Mularky (new D and O coordinators)returning to Pittsburgh?
