Should NOT have taken deposit bonus!

Last Sunday I did a crypto deposit of $214.73 on Bovada. I took a 50% crypto deposit bonus which gave me a total of $322.09. I have since placed 5 wagers and won them all (a miracle for me). My balance is now $2,152.48 and I can't withdraw a single penny of it lol.

My "Playthrough Progress" is only at 16% completed. What a SCAM!

This refers to the wager requirements needed to complete your bonus and cash out any funds associated with it.

The wager requirements to complete this bonus are:

• $ 6441.90 in Casino or
• $ 9662.85 in Sports or
• $ 9662.85 in Horses

Never again am I doing a bonus lol. It's a recipe for failure. 

GL 

Wow...

What bullshit..

I'm at 8 casino books.

Got bonuses with them all and have never heard of that..

Mind you...I've only withdrawn from one casino out of the 8

Bastards...

You can usually reverse the bonus at most books but they dont tell you that.

Lol that’s why I hate offshore books

Went through it on DK. 100% deposit, max $500. So i put in 500 to get 1,000 total after the match...trouble is they require a 15x play through on the total so i had to place $15K in wagers....with a 7 day time period before losing it all.... Such bull S. Live and learn. Ended up lucky and meeting the requirements but it took ALOT of luck. Sportsbooks except us to lose it all by the end of the play through requirements.

My advice, place as many low risk wagers as possible and hope to get lucky. If you can use it on casino, try to find a decent game that you can minimize risk while maximizing wagers. GL!

A crypto bonus at bovada is 5x rollover.

Most I've seen is 20x

You are taking like 30x.

Something is wrong. 

@joeflaccid

 I'll check and see what they say.

Never ever take a bonus ----Only leads to problems just like this!!

@joeflaccid

 Just got this reply from Bovada:

"I have checked your account and if you will forfeit the Bovada Crypto-Exclusive Bonus $181.40 will be removed from your balance. :)"

I've been in that situation before.

Was up around 8K.

I started doing a little system that they may be onto now.

I'd take Nuggets -3 for $500

then as soon as the game started I'd 

take the opposite. Miami +3 for $500.

So I would lose $50 after these two plays.

but I hit my Play total in a few days.

Eating a couple hundred to hit your play total is not that bad. 

Never take the bonus 'hook'.

@fitchris562

 Tipico Sportsbook took all my money for trying that. Said I violated terms of service lol

Came back to this thread because bovada offered me a 75% match up to $150 but looked at the fine print and it’s with a 20x play over  lmao

Rollover is insane with Bovada. 

If you're using offshore, you should use BetOnline. SOOOOO much less juice!

Especially if you are using crypto. No fee either place, so wouldnt understand why not BOL. My book of choice

u didn’t know you have to rollover to withdraw ur $?

read the rules 

and never take a rollover bonus if you don’t think you can rollover 25x initial deposit. 

And these books know the likelihood of someone rolling over their initial deposit 10-25x is slim to none. 

Just live bet huge favorites at -10000 when they are about to win

I lost like 2k. I asked my book for free play. They gave me 3k from all my deposits. I made that 3k into 3k in cash (halos rl) with 60k roll over. A week later i’m at 12k with 44 k roll over left. If i can somehow complete this roll over while not busting out will be a miracle.

@RiggedNation

 What book gives free play upon request?

Food for thought, I never take the bonus so I can withdraw when I want. Now you know, respect

I’ve tried them all, I check around for the best lines, but I think the best is Caesars by far

Forfeit the bonus. Only 50% of your deposit will be taken off your balance. 

@buttas

 Xbbet.ag obviously only asked them for it after losing 2k and was on the verge of closing the account lol. Now on the verge of a crazy come back.

The tough part is only half of the total bet winnings count for single MLB plays. So say i take a play at even money for $1000 and it hits, $500 of that counts towards bonus. That’s why i just do two team ML parlays. Like today I have Dodgers and Balty 2k parlay lol
