Got an email offer from Bookmaker if I deposit $300 they will match that with a cash bonus with a 20x rollover requirement on the deposit amount (or 10x the total amount if you want to look at it a different way). If I did the math right, assuming all bets were -110, it would take 3 all-ins + a ~$2675 bet to clear the rollover requirement if I wanted to go the fastest route. So basically, the way I'm looking at it, I would just need to go 3-0 to guarantee a payout on any 3 sports and if I go 4-0 I'd get a nice payout.
Anybody ever tried this route with success? Or do you usually just grind it out and stick with betting units until you get there or lose it all?
Only time I ever took a bonus was with Bovada when I first dipped my toes into this world, but by circumstance my cash bets won while my bonus bets lost, so when those hit zero, it cleared my cash balance before I met the rollover requirement and was able to withdraw. Since then, I never took the bonus whenever I made a deposit elsewhere since I didn't want my money tied up with strings.
Any words of wisdom?
