DraftKings is running another one of their every so many bets the line moves essentially guaranteed win bets.

This time with the Lakers/Nuggets Over on 2/14. It’s down to 123 points. $25 max bet to win $25.
I was deleting my apps, then I saw that....

Those bastards always sucking you back in

I continue to have great self control. I’ll just keep farming my free money and just withdrawing right away.

We’re probably around ~$300 or so in the last year on all platforms, right?
I see the promo for the $100 blackjack hand here in PA, finally, but it won't let me do it. I might have played in the casino before, so there's that. I had my friend try, he downloaded the sportsbook app a few weeks ago, and it wouldn't work for him either.

Check the little alert bell at the top of your screen. I didn't think it was going to work for me either because I kept hitting "Play Now" or whatever it was but it wouldn't take me there.

Then I saw the alert bell and clicked on it through there and it took me in.

I checked there, but nothing came up. I then saw there was a $10 one so I clicked that and of course that one took me right there, so I definitely have no chance at the $100 one.

I had my friend check the bell after hitting the play now and there was nothing there. I'll have him check again as I know it sometimes takes a bit.

My gf and I signed up for FanDuel yesterday so we could do the $5 to win $275 gig. We each picked a different team so one of us would win, of course she picked TB and I picked KC...

Smart move. HCette follows my lead on all of these free bets also so it's a nice little double dose.

She's talking about betting all $275 on Nadal to win his first round match for a whopping return of $3.50. I think she'd be able to cash it all out at that point, which is probably in her best interest
The $275 needs to be rolled over? Typically with DraftKings these type of promotions you haven't needed to roll it over.

I thought they give it to you in site credit which can't be withdrawn until you bet the amount of credit you won. I'll ask her if she can just take it out.

Im pretty sure DK ran the same thing last year, bet $5 win $250, but you couldn't take that $250 until it was bet. That was the entrance into my sports gambling

It definitely is a common thing to have the rollover requirement but I don't think i've seen them have one with any of these bonuses lately. Although with it being a sign up bonus maybe it's different.

I texted her a few minutes ago and said see what happens when you try cashing out, so she did, and it let her take out the money...success!

She wants to buy a new sofa for her house, so that $275 should get her one of the arms of the sofa, maybe a cushion

Tough one last night
I've gotten 3, free, $10 bets for the new same game parlay. Hit the first one and had this happen last night. I made the bet Wednesday night and Renfroe got added to the bereavement list yesterday

Two free money alerts on DK. Spread one on Tampa and a hammer the over on UGA/Clem.
Bet $25 on the UGA/Clem game then roll that over to the Thursday night game. I didn't notice a limit on the Thursday game. Plenty of money in the tank for 2000 to 1 parlays for football season
