sure did.

I might hedge a little of it, but no more than $200...

^ and ^^ Im a pretty much a noob when it comes to this betting shit (other than straight up bets with my friends), so how does that offer work in the favor of mansion? Is there some fine writing Im not seeing or is it a get out of jail free card kind of thing?

Exposure? getting you to bet on their site instead of someone else's?

[Edited on August 31, 2006 at 5:36 PM. Reason : asdf]

It seems like their is a cheaper way to do it than what they are offering.

8/31/2006 5:57:44 PM

its a freeroll bet for $1100.

thats it.

the site is owned by one of the most wealthy gentlemen in the world. they are huge in england right now and are a reputable book.

the only thing i can figure is

a.) they got a hand in the game
b.) they figure anyone that can drop a 1g bet is the type of player they want to attract.

8/31/2006 6:05:56 PM

Its an exposure thing. Advertising. It is all over the internet now! There are no catches. I've known people to do the same thing for soccer games they have done this before and gotten paid out with no problems. I sent my money today

8/31/2006 6:06:45 PM

They also figure that you wont withdraw it and keep playing there after this promo. I will probably be hedging putting a bet to win 500 on the dolphins as well to guarantee money

8/31/2006 6:07:26 PM

8/31/2006 6:08:15 PM

Mansion can certainly afford the action. The owner and major shareholder, Indonesian billionaire Putera Sampoerna (58) is one of the world's richest men, and last year sold his cigarette business to Philip Morris for GBP 3 billion. He is also believed to be counting out GBP 120 million to buy the Les Ambassadeurs Casino in London's Mayfair. Mansion recently signed a GBP 40 million poker tournament deal with American giants television company Fox Sports Network.

8/31/2006 6:08:44 PM

Damn, yeah I guess the guy can afford it.

8/31/2006 7:30:42 PM

Ok, the Northwestern game is really fucking pissing me off. 0-0 at halftime.

Yep, and i appreciate it...

basically, if you like to bet sports and you dont make this bet... you are an idiot.

This one bet can offset most of y'alls losses for the whole season

8/31/2006 9:33:44 PM

Well thats taking in two factors, that you actually have $1100 to bet, and that the team you pick wins. I mean, either way you cant lose, but its not guaranteed to win.


Im kinda pissed about the Northwestern game, I waited to place my bet, and the line went from -4 to -6. And as the game looks right now, it might be really close since its 14-3 right now, I can just see this bitch ending by a margin of 4pts and totally fucking me.

Oh yes, as long as UTEP holds on to this 10pt lead with 4min left, this guy pockets a cool $600 profit on my parlay

OK....SDSU just kicked a FG with 2min left to make it 34-27. Surely UTEP can run the clock out and just prevent a TD......PLEASE???????

My luck they get a turnover, drive the field, and get the 2pt conversion with 5seconds left, and I go down in flames.....

GT blitz nullified by a good QB and offensive team

9/1/2006 1:42:45 AM

The best part about it is USCs starting QB was out almost half the game, and I still won!

Oh by the way, I am still offering up Notre Dame as my game of the week at -7. Get in on it while you can, I have $500 on it.

pssstt... a secret.

you have to pick pitts.

so go put $500 on miami on another site. buy the points to cover your hedge:

youve invested $1600.

lock up $450+, guaranteed.

Cal -2
Auburn -14.5

TCU -6.5
Alabama -15

im happy...Notre Dame won. I lost my bet on ND -7 but I broke even on taking the halftime line of ND -6

phew

USC -8 looking good too

9/2/2006 11:42:46 PM

haha gg MacTuckIzzle

9/2/2006 11:47:03 PM

Oh well, Im still up a few hundred for the week, and luckily I put 200 on the USC game right before it started.

And also made a new parlay after the UNC game fell apart, I won it paying 2.6-1 for 260

Anybody who believes you put 500 on the ND game is an idiot

and anybody who believes what you just said is a bigger idiot

give it to me

^^Dude, I could really care less what you think. Just because I have more money than you isn't something to get pissed over.

9/3/2006 12:26:07 AM

how bout this shit... friggin carolina


i did a 8 game parlay for the hell of it. $5 to win $841. just for shits and giggles or whatever.


i won 7 outta 8... my one loss was Carolina. Pricks

9/3/2006 12:27:54 AM

how much less could you care?

9/3/2006 12:28:08 AM

^^Yeah, they fucked me too. I figured that was an easy win, Rutgers totally blew ass last year. I just had them as a moneyline bet, all they had to do was just fucking win the game.

^I don't think that even matters either. Let him think what he wants to, I obviously piss him off for some reason.
