Default 20% Cash Bonus on sign-up or a 16% Cash Back Rebate on net losses?

20% Cash Bonus on sign-up or a 16% Cash Back Rebate on net losses?

I see BetJamaica offers this, I'm going to open an account there soon and would like input on this offer.

Which would/did you choose and why?

If you fancy yourself a decent picker and/or outright wagering king, then the former.

If you plan on using them to dutch a lot, then the latter I'd think

I always take a bonus rather than cash back. If you run well there you get nothing.

I would take the 20% cash, I think taking the cash back is giving you a loser's mindset, you have to get better. You can make money doing this.

It depends on the limits on each one. If you can only get so much for the 20%, but the 16% is permanent, then go with the rebate if it could potentially be much bigger over time. Remember also that you can lose here while winning elsewhere. It's all about e.v.

Are there any other sportsbooks that offer cash rebates on net losses? This is pretty rare it seems.

pinny did offer 5 percent back on losses when you went thru an affiliate. So if you lost 5K for the month at pinny you got 5 pecent back from your affiliate=250 dollars from the affiliate. So for people who were using pinny to arb/clear sportsbook bonuses then you were set.

5Dimes offers a 15% Cash Back Rebate on net losses, posted twice a year, 2 weeks prior to the NFL Preseason, and 2 weeks after the Super Bowl. They're definitely my new favorite book since Pinny went away.
