Maybe that's why they're doing it. The free/good publicity alone may warrant such a promotion.

Besides, the only way I think they actually lose money, is if the Steelers win. What do they care if a bunch of people (who weren't going to bet) deposit on their site and get the $ refunded? If 1 person out of 100 makes another wager on the site after that promotion, they'll make money.

They need that 1/100 to be a huge bettor. They are definitely losing $$ on this deal, but they want to attaract the high roillers. Note you have to bet at LEAST 1100, so you need a big BR.

I have done the first offer but this one is huge.

Can't they just steal all the bets of thousands of users who will do it and disappear?

Mansion is rolled to the hilt.

Mansion wants big time sports bettors this season. If Pittsburg wins then Mansion will pay and many people will continue to bet more American Football games in their book, so I understand Mansion's promotion.

If you are a Mansion member, this is a nice offer.

Neteller could one day just fold up and steal everyones money. That is the chance you take playing online. Mansion is well bankrolled and they just signed what was like a $65 Million Dollar deal with that Tottenham soccer team.

Guys, it seems as though some of your are misunderstanding the promotion. The promotion terms state that you must place a bet of [exactly] $1,100 (or approved currency equivalent). I assume you are reading "minimum Point Spread (Handicap)" to mean that $1,100 is the "minimum" bet, however, here, "minimum Point Spread (Handicap)" just means that you are placing a bet with the given handicap (i.e. PITT MUST win by a minimum of 5 points). I hope this clears up some of the confusion.

They will atract a lot of costumers this way. If i win the bet i will probably bet in more games, and i wouldnt do that if there was no bonus.

This would ruin their business. They are making so much that the constant sportsbook/casino income is > the one time shot of stealing. Same with neteller.
