If the majority of shops offer the same bonus

TheGeneral+ · May 14, 2003

If the top 100 books average 10% up front and 10-20% re-up, then why do they even deal with the bonus? Will the top 100 books not be the top 100 anymore without a bonus?

I have never been a bonus fan.

Thanks

Bonuses are the strength of the industry....for both sides. Personally, I thrive on them.

How would you descibe the way bonuses assist you strutt? Assuming you are a winning gambler.

Appreciate any info.

One good thing about them is they keep the squares playing.

I am not a fan of bonuses because it has been the condemnation and thorn in the side for so many bookmakers...

I do understand how wonderful it can be for the recreational player, but with all the bonus whores cheating to rape many sports books, I guess I have mixed feelings at best about Bonuses...

I choose to play at books that do NOT offer bonuses.

I never really cared about a bonus other than getting the transfer fees paid...The whole transfer fee situation annoys the hell out of me

I have always thought that good bonuses should be based on your play, not just because you joined in. In effect the best bonuses are offered by Pinnacle and Canbet just in the thousands reduced juice saves for consistent players.

If I ran a book I would give something like a $100 bonus for every $10,000 in action you gave, or something like that and keep upfront bonuses to promo stuff like a free parlay or even just refunding sending costs. After all, the biggest cost a book faces is getting a customer, why do most books give you so little unless you run bad and bust out??? Am I the only one that sees the logic in this?
