I just made the bet and interestingly enough I had the option to make it 4.5
The live operator said I would make less with this wager. I asked how much less? He didn't answer the question - he paused, told me I'd make more on the 5 line, but steered me away from the 4.5 bet, which obviously would have been much better and would guarantee the hedge bet, but I didn't push it and took the free bet with the line at 5. |

Also, I don't think you are allowed to hedge the bet at Mansion so be sure to do that elsewhere.

Here's the promotion details and conversions for those not using USD:
http://www.mansion.com/Portal.aspx?s...romotions.aspx I'm not affiliated with Mansion in any way - just found out about the offer and signed up, confirmed it with online support when I did it and kept a copy of it. |

OK, probably a stupid question. But I just don't understand. What is Mansion gaining from this? My poker bankroll is only about $1200 so if I threw it onto this game on Sept 6th... I'm not losing anything and I can win $1000? Too good to be true... [/ QUOTE ] I would guess they gain a lot of action and a huge buzz. If they get 50% bet on each team they win and if they don't they can lay off any amount they uncomfortable with.Does that make sense? |

EZ if you really did that then wow that was about dumb. You should have placed the free bet at Mansion and then place a weighted bet on Miami at say Pinny. Bet $2300 or whatever on Miami so you would win around $2000 and if Pitt somehow covers you still lose the same.
Best of luck to ya! |

It also doesn't meet the promotional requirements of placing a minimum of $1100 on Pittsburgh -5. |
