hulk3 - no, you wouldn't lose anything. you immediately get refunded your bet if it's a 'push' (the final margin is exactly 5).

kissme: -118 means that you are wagering $118 to win $100 more. each site automatically calculates this for you before you place the final-wager. Or you can use a calculator and figure it out.

If you bet $236 you win $200.
If you bet $354 you win $300.
If you bet $472 you win $400.
and so on.



Here's another example so you can see how it works.

If you bet $1100 on PIT via Mansion
and bet $472 on MIA via PinnacleSports:

If PIT wins:
+$1000 on Mansion
-$472 on Pinnacle
= +$528


If MIA wins:
refund on Mansion so $0 there
+$400 on Pinnacle
= +$400


So this doesn't work out evenly.
But lets you have some fun still rooting for PIT...while locking-in a profit in case they lose.

spino1 - aside from their video-poker issue and their problem with the hand-generator on the poker tables are there any other issues with Mansion?

I'm pretty sure that they are considered a reputable site and I haven't read of anyone having a problem cashing-out from them or anything like that.


FWIW - it appears everybody (including me) got back their free $190 on the Tottenham English soccer promo that they did last week (almost identical to the current Pittsburgh Steelers promo).

I got my last sports bet back on Tottenham but was pissed off when they changed their T+C while I told my friend on a short roll that he should whore their Roulette tables. He still made like $200 but it took him a week to play all that Bacarrat.

Also - EVERYBODY needs to be aware that it will take a little while to get your money back and it will be tied-up for a few days.
If you HAVE to get the money back immediately then don't do the bet.


1 - it took almost 3 days for them to refund the soccer bet stuff last week. Might take even longer this time since it's more money.

2 - They require drivers-license scan or fax before they allow you to cash-out. And it takes them a minimum of 48-hours for them to process that. And they then say that it will PROBABLY be enough...but they might require further documents if their investigative team decides it would be best.
etc etc etc.
This is even if you just deposit and cash-out via neteller.
They STILL require the drivers-license pic/scan.

In other words, it IS a bit of a hassle to deal with them and if you are going to be impatient about getting your money back then you shouldn't do it.



I look at it as receiving a 30% return-on-investment for a 2-week commitment on my $1600 (if I bet both teams).

I haven't checked the latest percentages at ING...but I'm pretty sure they can't compete with this.

This is the line in their terms and conditions that I like the best

I have a question, if you already have an account at Mansion's Sports Exchange, can you use that money to bet on the Sportsbook for this? Or do you have to set up a new, seperate account for the Sportsbook?

To everybody, i understand you got your money back from the tottendaum bet 190. Why on earth would they in essence give you a free 1000 bet?? this makes very little sense and i need clarification. It's one thing to refund 190 and another to refund 1100.
