Actually, those rules are a good way to keep the bonus whores away. |

a.t.m.,
i am being objective. i don't think it's wrong to have rules in place to keep bonus whores away. like i said, once i get signed up with them and try them for a while, i'll give my opinion. |

Next time your at the casino and you buy in at the tables for a 1000 when your done you have about 4000 just slide your chips to the dealer and tell em you'll be back in a month to get your money?
Wish you all the best with this book i just posted it because it seemed odd for a 28 day hold just because they cover your fees?
Next time your at the casino,don't forget to ask them for the gas money you spend to get there  Lots of books use a 30 day hold, there is one with a 90 day hold.
Tks for the good wishes
Fred is offering new online customers a bonus of up to £100, completely free with your first bet.
It really is as simple as it sounds!
Whatever you win from your first bet, Fred will give you an extra 100% on top, up to the value of £100. For example, if you win £100 with your first bet, we will double it up and give you another £100 completely free. Nice bonus for a smaller player wouldn't you say?
jentude its only for the first month,then if you want you can settle up every day if you like.Most books i use gives out one free payout a month,so i am used to the once a month payouts anyway,,
Best of luck you happy posters  Fred get ready here i come!!!!!

Better go back and look at that its not any bet? its a 3 way bet so it has to be placed on soccer or something like that no NBA or NCAAB

an absolute waste - no way would I be committed to leave money in for 28 days. Especially when it's a book that doesn't even cater to basketball, the most important thing going on now.. |
