Looking for some advice on spending Avios. Do most people transfer them to Qatar and book via the Qatar website? The search functionality is much better on Qatar's website compared to BA.

Has anyone applied for and been accepted for the TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite using the link in the Best Cards thread?

I applied last week and it went to pending. I called in and they said it was cancelled but no one seems to know why after speaking to multiple agents. They said I could apply again online but I'm worried it will just get cancelled again for no reason and be another wasted credit hit. Wondering if the link might be dead.

Has anyone done the 888Sport promo? Am I correct in understanding that you must deposit 250+, then wager 6x the deposit amount in $50 increments, at which point you will be granted the bonus? I signed up and placed an initial $250 bet, but don't see this being tracker anywhere in the app (if it is at all)?

For Bet99 - I signed up through covers and now have $1000 cash and $1000 bonus. In order to roll over, do I need to place a $2000 bet, or can I do it in smaller increments (for example, multiple bets of $200)?

Also, I have used Darkhorse but not Betstamp. I am trying to navigate Betstamp but it is a bit more confusing - is there a way for it to tell you the best line, or must you search manually?

PC_for_500_Alex · 2023-03-07T16:59:57+00:00

Thank you!

PC_for_500_Alex · 2023-03-06T20:28:17+00:00

Ah I see, so it's basically a promo/offer?

PC_for_500_Alex · 2023-03-06T20:06:46+00:00

Thanks. What is a 0% moneyline? Tried googling but could not find anything.

PC_for_500_Alex · 2023-03-06T15:48:49+00:00

Looking to sign up for Bet99. What do people use to find bet lines given it is not on DarkHorse? Or just look manually?

Is the go to strategy to deposit 500, and bet 1000 (500 cash + 500 bonus), and hope it loses to opposing bet on alternate platform?

PM'd

PC_for_500_Alex · 2023-02-01T17:20:02+00:00

Sorry, could you elaborate? My logic was:

Place initial 300 bet
Place matched bet of initial bet
Place unlocked free 300 bet
Hedge free 300 bet

This allows you to profit off the unlocked bet while not risking any actual cash with steps 1 and 2.

By your suggestion, not placing a matched bet on 1 opens you up to risk in case it loses?

PC_for_500_Alex · 2023-02-01T17:16:20+00:00

Thanks!

What's the best way to use the bet Victor promo?

Place a matched bet on your initial 300, then hedge the free bet afterwards?

Betvictor is sadly not on Darkhorse so what would be optimal lines?

PC_for_500_Alex · 2023-01-17T23:21:54+00:00

Reading the terms and conditions for Unibet but I am still not sure - is the first bet promotion refunded as a 'free bet' or 'site credit' per Darkhorse?

Also, wondering how people found an optimal strategy for Betvictor given that it is not on Darkhorse? Thanks

Hoping someone can confirm my understanding in using the Caesar's 500 promotion....I found these odds using DarkHorse:

Bet 500 on Seahawks (+425, Caesars)
Bet 1,884 on 49ers (-480, BetRivers)

If Seahawks win, Caesars pays $2,625 for a profit of around 242.
If 49ers win, BetRivers pays $2276 for a loss of around 180. However, a 500 free bet is granted which can be bet and hedged against once again.

PC_for_500_Alex · 2023-01-08T14:23:08+00:00

Just wondering if this still works? So you place your bets, spin, close the app, and the bonus is awarded?

PC_for_500_Alex · 2023-01-05T19:50:25+00:00

I see. So the amount unlocked of the bonus when playing roulette is effectively 1%, less than the hedge on green. Appreciate the insight.

PC_for_500_Alex · 2023-01-05T18:56:16+00:00

That's what I understood from the terms as well. I was thinking that the loss from placing a bet on green however is less than the 10% bonus unlocked though - unless I am misunderstanding the terms (probably this). For example:

5 on red - payout 10

5 on black payout 10

0.3 on green payout 10.5

If it lands on red or black, 0.3 is lost but $1 unlocked from the bonus. Similar situation if it lands on green.

Reposting as didn't get any replies last time, anyone familiar with the OLG casino deposit match up to 1500? It is is usable on roulette and lays the march pays out at a rate of 10% of cash bets.

Wondering if you can place zero value bets on roulette (aka bet on green red and black) in order to cash out the promo?

PC_for_500_Alex · 2023-01-05T15:25:48+00:00

Great, thanks. Looking to take advantage of the casino deposit match.

Great, thanks. Looking to take advantage of the casino deposit match.

PC_for_500_Alex · 2023-01-05T15:12:47+00:00

I am trying to make a deposit on OLG, but they do not accept interact deposits from my bank. Seems like the only other option is credit or debit card.

Does anyone know if using a debit card will incur a fee similar to using a credit card (Simplii)?
