Freeplay Question
Okay so I have a few quick questions about the freeplay. I am considering buying the $50 freeplay at Wagerchief from the SBR store.
Do they let you split the bet. Like say team a plays team b. Will they let me put say $27 of the freeplay on team a and $23 of the freeplay on team b? |

Is that free play abuse? You are basically giving away 1/2 of your freeplay.

Would hedging the free play on the same book be in violation as well lol?

Yeah but that guarantees unless it is a push that he will have some money put into his cash account and Free Plays are only supposed to give you a chance to have money put into your cash account and not guarantee it.

Just curious, is this written in print somewhere, or just an unwritten rule?

What splitting the free play and basically boxing the game? I read the rules for freeplay and could not see it anywhere. If this is not allowed they should have it placed under the rules. Because to someone who does not know that, (like me, before I checked), that would be really unfair to have it voided.

Well, it is written in print at lots of books that you cannot split up Free Plays and Cash Bonus money into two different bets to guarantee or increase chances of converting into cash or to meet rollover requirements.

It is a foolish bet, and should be allowed, but rarely is.

What broke back fuk hedges off a 50 freeplay on a 4-8x rollover? what are you then going to withdraw 38 bucks once you finish hedging it off?
I did this with 1250 but not $50

freeplays are only good to use for parlays cause the freeplay amount wagered of course isnt included in the winnings but it is included "inside" the parlay. what i mean is a in a 4 team parlay you still get payed 10:1, where as in a wager you would lose the amount risked the first time and that would cut your winnings in half by the 4th game played:
on a $50 fp straight wager:
0 to make $47
$47 to make $44
$91 to make $85
$176 to make $236 about, going 4-0
$50 fp parlay at 4 teams:
0 to make $600, going 4-0 HUGE DIFFERENCE
so the best thing to do is break the fp into 4 team parlays.

Hi Guys,
Hope all is well , sorry I have not been on much but as you all know this is a very bust time of the year for us.
To answer this question we do NOT allow betting both teams in one game with your freeplay .
If you have any questions feel free to call us and ask for Jon.
Have a great day

Thank you for the info WagerChief.
Also so say I wager the whole $50 on a 3-1 payout and it hits for $100. (150-50 freeplay). When I wager that $100 is it the same rule? Like if I wager that $100 on another 3-1 payout and it hits for $300. Do I get $300 or $200 (300-100bet)?

You can't wager the FREEPLAY on something more than + or -200.

I know I am just saying as an example....Are the results from the freeplay, still a freeplay? So what ever I win on the freeplay, when I wager that, is the wager lost when i win?

Sorry, that wasn't direct to you, was saying it to Kolzig.
The amount placed on the bet is not given back if you win.
For example, if you bet $50 free-play to win $40, and you win, you'll have $40 cash in your acct.

best thing to do is make 5 parlays at $10 each. because freeplay straight wagers you lose the risked amount. but in a parlay you still lose the risked $10 amount, but inside the parlay (3 teamer) the risked amount still multiplies and pays 6:1

no kidding its scary that books can go back and give you a hassle over something that their software allowed..........but the 3 team parlays are the way to go with a free play. just break it up into 5 $10 parlays. then when it is turned into cash you should do straight wagers
