There were those who took the promo for Wimbledon saying they received a 10USDT free bet yesterday.
The terms and conditions did say the free spins for the slots game selected would be awarded the next day at 15gmt.
So another hour and a bit before they should be there.
I do believe these free bets in tether were for those players who have been active lately as a reward for placing bets.

Thanks! Was actually a late bet last night, popped it in shortly before lights out, was actually rdbase who suggested the opener, backtracking from a post from Welsh on another thread. If your luck is bad and your bets worse, could be refreshing to get perspective from others every now and then.

Gamrot was an upset yeah, fight reports suggested he was a little under water in the first 2 rounds from the Armenian but recovered for takedowns and points in the final.

Only 3 KOs I counted, after a bout of so many!

True, and not true,,, at least for me it still works as badly as when I make my own picks. Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not, and generally better when I have no personal affiliation for the team/person I am betting on. It is really weird that when you think you know more about the sport, you can make unnatural decisions.

Anyway, yes I think the younger fighter was very very upset with the late loss to Gamrot, he will be hopefully less favored by the odds in next game, but as a result, a value pick to win.
It is true. He is only 25 years old so he has alot to learn and go thru in the octagon I will have to agree with you.
Gamrot knew when to score the points to bring the match into his favor and in the judges eyes when it was all said and done.
That is where being the more experienced fighter helps out the most to win a fight.

The race that we have all been waiting two weeks for the British grand prix at Silverstone!

I am certain Mercedes has been anticipating returning to the track where their drivers have had success on for a British homecoming for a team of their own lads.

Can not wait for racing to be on again as this wait had been longer than I thought.
There had been a void this weekend without it for most including myself.

Red Bull ring is Max's playground so it will be very hard for Mercedes to make up ground on that track.
Silverstone is were Lewis shines so they will grab the points on this track forsure.

The trick is win, wagering for next Vip level shouldn't be a goal. When you are close like 2% it makes sense doing 1.01x dice bets for wager but realizing you lost more than bonus during process hurts. Sad but true lol
Yeah, it's really hurt.
My bonus amount only to recovery my lost deposit ~XD, based on my history from Gold to Plat 1. I think, losing more than 90% of my deposit amount and the amount I receive is only for recovery that amount.
There should be nice recent gameplay bonus for those who lost a lot between two Vip levels, AFAIK.
Better to get host and ask for lossback bonus but it is only available for plat 4 users after recent changes on Vip system.
There must of been a rule change because when I questioned about this they told me there was no lossback bonus.
It didn't matter about rank at the time but now if what you are saying is a recent change then that answered it.
They didn't know how much the lossback was only that if you lost ALOT that you would be offered such bonus on losses.
It was around $15k-20k within a week period would you be offered.
But that amount has probably changed as well from when I asked about it. About 3 months ago when someone on their chat stated they had received it after loss after loss in this given amount of time.

Well done indeed buwaytress!
The first and last matches of the night were upsets which seem to be a theme in these fights in vegas, to me atleast.
I like to put larger wagers on the main events which is why I will put my bets on the favorites in the next for this first weekend in July to kick it off.

They even put the countdown for UFC 276 before the fight night had started yesterday:

But from what I understood these factors you have mentioned are different for betting exchanges such as fairlay and betfair.
The odds going down significantly kind of made it felt this way with the outcome of everyone piling their bets on Djokovic all at the same time.

I finally made it everyone!!

Wagered over 1 BTC and saw my status is now also VIP. Ended up with about 25% losses but worth it and maybe I make a bit more if my weekly wager maintains.

I was on holiday from work this last few days and I know I should have gone out and enjoyed but I had a lot less money than I figured out when I applied for leave and the planned holiday became too expensive so I stayed home and gambled for hours past few days  Grin

There are some forum user that makes signature campaign as main source of income especially on people living on 3rd world country where poverty is high. I belong to this country too but I have a stable job and business so my campaign earnings is just a bonus same as yours but we should understand others POV on there signature campaign earnings.

I guess most of us are from 3rd world country but I also rely on my job and income,,, not signature or anything online which a lot of others do, I do not want to turn into a bounty hunter with posts that make people sick of being on this forum.

I remember coming to this forum the first time and liking the discussions. I do not know if I would feel the same way as a newbie coming now as discussion threads especially are just filled with spam posts of people posting for the sake of it. No contributions, not even betting or gambling  Roll Eyes

Is there any benefit in becoming a VIP on the site or not?
I had wagered a little from time to time early last year but don't think I have been there since. Won some lost more as it is with blackjack.
Third world country? Thought you were from Japan but working in Singapore from what I remember reading from your posts up on the UFC thread.
I consider both of those first world if you ask me as their GDP are quite high.

Anyways, congrats on the wins as I hope you didn't actually use up one whole bitcoin to achieve this VIP rank. A 3-to-1 ratio is about right when it comes to leveling up on such sites.

Actually I was planning to make a bet on the winner of Wimbledon on sportsbet.io today. But as the odds have gone down very seriously I changed my mind. You can compare it to the odds above that rdbase shared yesterday. I hope that we can have the previous odds back otherwise I'd be really sad for missing it.  Cry
Fair point here, we will not get better odds. Odds adjust with each bet placed on outcome. Sportsbet raised the number of bets on Djoković a lot with this promo and skewed the odds.

I wanted to prove my theory by checking the odds on Stake which uses same odds provider (same odds) and they have 1.67 on Djoković. Actually I just checked the odds and Stake has much better odds on everybody. There is something wrong with this and I'll ask them on live support. As it stands nobody would place a bet on outright on Sportsbet, there must be some mistake here or really big margin cause of the promo.

Usualy odds comparison is in small favor of Stake, but then you turn that boost and Sportsbet gets in the lead by some margin. At least it was like that last time I checked. This will make me check again. Hell FAA pays double on Stake Smiley
-snipped-
That was an interesting experiment on how the number of bets placed does infact change the odds considerably in this instance.
I remember, if my memory serves me correctly, that there was someone trying to tell players who were betting for a match on their chat this does not in anyway alter the way the odds for the markets are showing up.
Well then how can this be explained if they do not influence them in anyway and vegas bookmakers are the ones who have those odds and post them up just as they are?
As I had mentioned in my previous post when I placed my bet for the promotion, I first saw the odds @1.71 then waited a day and placed it @1.73x:

This weekend there is no race happening so a very sad one for all the gearheads in us.
It does return for the first week in July in Great Britain where surprisingly Mercedes are not the favorite to win with neither Russell nor Hamilton.
I know another week or so to go and by telling the odds of 15x for Lewis to win on his home track are rather high.

Seems that Musk does favor dogecoin in some way or another with what he discusssed during his interview on the Economic forum in Qatar this past week:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTBeGjg4pek

Stating his companies does accept payments in this cryptocurrency for merchandise but that does not include for the actual products and services which his companies main focus are, for example buying an actual Tesla or booking a flight on SpaceX.

You did alot better than most who knew and are obsessed with NBA and their early draft selections.
Well done to you buwaytress man!

I didn't even come close with 6 right at the end of it all. Very disappointed but knew I wouldn't do so well once it started because I had the utmost favorite out of the whole thing to get selected #1 in the draft and he did not.
Paolo Banchero who was a 4-1 was picked overall going to the Orlando magic.
Not many saw that one coming, as from the interview afterwards, he didn't either.

Still have my Novak bet to look forward to for this weekend. Hopefully he makes it to the finals so to get those sweet free spins for everyone of his matches for the next few weeks.

Post-monthly only for platinum+ users whereas we only collected reload despite making wager more than $1000 in the last week  Cheesy

Every VIP level has its own benefits, so if you want to get the same bonus with Platinum+ users then you should level up. I do not recommend you to level up just for the bonus though, just play as you wish with your own limit and let you level up yourself naturally. It is still good enough that you get reload bonus than nothing. Enjoy it and do not complain as you may not fine the same bonus in other casinos.
For the number of years that I have been playing and the amount wagered on the site, I would have to whole heartedly agree with you on this observation for leveling up solely on the basis of going for the bonus at the end of those platinum levels.
It is certainly not worth it.
You get what $800 for Platinum III and then it doubles after that. So getting to Platinum IV is what.. $1600?
I had wagered a total of $10,000 in the past 24 hours and only had reached 1% of the Platinum IV level according to my vip level meter on the splash screen once you enter the site.
So according to this calculation I would need to do wagers of $1 million in total so get that $1600 in a bonus amount for reaching Platinum IV.
Does this make any sense to do for any gambler out there just so to gain the level up bonus?

Yes Wimbledon has started today and the promotion is still eligible to be taken until the 26th so you still have time to opt-in and collection the reward for every win Djokovic has in the tournament:
https://sportsbet.io/promotions/2022-06-wimbledon-promo
Wimbledon has not started today, Wimbledon qualifications finished today and they started on Monday. We still have a couple of days before main thing starts.
Really curious to see if the intensity levels will be same as previous years or if it drop of a little, cause of suspensions and no points for ATP rankings.
Yeah the draws and qualification are still in progress.
Bet on a few matches and the special (djokovic was @1.73x) some of the top seeds were beaten in their first matches but are still being settled.
Watched a commercial a few days ago and thought it said June 23rd. But it was quite late at night and must of read it with blurry eyes as June 26th makes more sense (matches start late at night on the schedule I am viewing from) since it beings officially on the 27th of June.
Anyways, here are the exact dates from the venue sponsors IBM who are incharge of all these times for each and every timezone:
