How do you manage your raffle prizes?

[Julien_Olynpic]

I don't participate in free bets out of laziness and partly because I consider them to be nothing more than a marketing ploy. If I did, I'd diversify my winnings: I'd use some for further play and withdraw the rest. Overall, I don't see much of a difference between winning a free bet and winning a bet you pay for with your own money. The only difference is that people tend to take free bets more lightly. But I think that's wrong: a bet is a bet, it's your money, and you should care about its fate just as much as you would about a paid bet.

I personally play most part of it then I try to play a few games and after a few win I withdraw immediately.

It was obtained for free, I feel like it becomes much easier to gamble with it because basically it is a free money. I don't feel the same as I lose my own money. But on the other side, it is still money regardless of how it was obtained and it's such a waste just to lose it instead of winning.

If I can be able to withdraw the money without any requirements but which is not possible, I will just withdraw the money immediately I access my account on the gambling site.

But if I am required to first wager which is usual, all my target is to get to the minimum target to pass the requirements. If I won I will immediately transfer the money to an exchange and convert it to fiat. I do not keep such money, I spend it instead.

The chances of withdrawing without any verification is fading away, in the future I believe that many online casinos won't be able to operate without implementing KYC verification.

I would do the same, I always make sure that I respect my wins, even if the money seem too little I will still withdraw it because my believe in gambling is luck only, so if it favours me I will withdraw and quit gambling.

If I still have a lot of free time to play around I would go on my PC and do something else, play some Minecraft or start watching YouTube videos.

Truly many users don't really value free bets due to they didn't pay a penny for it to get them.  But once the outcome comes out good, it becomes yours, it will now make sense that we do manage it with same discipline as that of other gambling bankrolls. Because if we do treat all this free bet winning a good opportunity, he'll anyhow miss

Before I cast my vote, I was thinking that the choice I'll be making would be the popular choice, and I was right 

Do you spend part of your money on bets and withdraw part of it from the casino? 15 votes (71.4%)

it's free money that's hard to win because of the probability, so we prefer to withdraw part of it and spend it on whatever we please.
Honestly, I only won once in a raffle, and it's not at a casino, and the feeling is different; it's close to winning in a lottery, you just feel you're something special because many participants are also hoping to win.

It always depends on personal taste, i kept them all
It's clear that most would make your choice because it's the most logical one
my problem is that i have become particularly jealous of my satoshi, i can't spend them, i always think that i will need them when I'm old
I hate euros instead.

Not everyone end up winning a raffle prize, but if you are ever lucky to be among the winners, it is more important for you to be conscious of what you do and where to go with this opportunity before it got rendered into waste in your hands after claiming them, people will only celebrate success with you because they know that while doing so they will also benefit some part of it, but you have to be more careful not to allow what you are meant to conserve be wasted unnecessarily with other people that will not help you out when you facing challenge in life.

Even if these raffles and contests are part of casino marketing, it is also a way they give back to the community, and with how often some casinos organize these contests, i can only have good things to say about it. However, the winnings usually come as either Free bets or Free spins, with wagering requirement, so you'd have to wager it in order to have a chance of withdrawing anything.

[Peanutswar]

I do make a partial distribution with the winnings if ever manage to hit a jackpot of course. First thing is if the wins are just cover the losses I do not withdraw the funds because if I ever play again I dont need to make a transaction again to transfer to make a deposit (Note: that only funds you willingly afford to lose, casino still can take away your money). If ever I manage to make a win is I do make it half, other one will be left to the wallet  because I wanted to increase my capital and the other option is I will withdraw them of course I wanted to enjoy the wins this is what we crave for and the reason we play gambling the satisfaction of winnings.

[wakier]

It depends on the prize given if the prize is small I will spend it all at once to bet on sports betting or other games if I win I will continue playing it until it runs out because I think the prize is worth using for fun, but if the prize is quite good such as winning a contest I will take some and the rest I will use to bet as a requirement if I want to make a withdrawal.

[fillippone]

I am not a good sport better.
I once won a raffle that required me to bet twice to withdraw the funds.
I didn’t like it too much, and tried to place the safest possible bets. I wouldn’t have liked to lose my precious Satoshi while betting on an obscure sporting event on the Turkish basketball.

I tend to think st those Satoshi as precious wealth for my family.

Luck is definitely big factor here. So I think, there is no reason to neglect it when it come to legitimate free bet or bonus. Casino give them for marketing. But a disciplined player can turn them to his advantage if he want. Most important thing is that there is no difference between the money won from free bet and the money won from your own deposit. Once the winning are in your balance it should be managed with the same discipline.

Many people think that winning from free bet reduce the chance of winning in slot or other games later. In my opinion this is just a misconception. Each spin or bet is independent. Previous outcome does not determine the next outcome. Therefore it is more reasonable to use free bet by understanding terms of the bonus without believing in superstition.

Same here. Although if the amount is reasonable and withdrawable, then I might just withdraw it immediately because I consider such as a gift. But if the amount isn’t that much, I might try to up it a bit by staking it all at once to see if I’ll eventually get lucky. I barely chase casino freebies, but when I eventually get one, I barely consider it to be quite a biggie and I don’t treat it like real money, especially when I’ll have to hit a particular threshold before I can withdraw.

Definitely, if the prize is little I will do the same thing because it was offered for free it was not mine, but if it is huge amount I will withdraw some part of the win and use a little I can spare for a game there. It is best to spend some little part in game as a signs of appreciation instead of just withdrawing everything, regardless of the prize range, because if it was never given a person would have not be able to even make a withdrawal take more of playing a game unless we have to spend our personal money to.

I understand you. People naturally, don't value what they get for free because they didn't pay for it. Same applies to free bet. What I do sometimes, is after winning, I cash out like 90% of my win and just play with the remaining 10% carelessly because I am happy that I have already made profit.

[ASloveapg]

If I get these, I don't know what to do, but my first decision would be to withdraw the money by fulfilling the minimum requirements, which I will do most of the time if I get them. (I don't participate in them now.)

But I can take a big risk to test my luck at least once,  Is it bad to test my luck by placing multiple bets in sports betting? It can be done 2-1 times of course. 

In this case, yes, I will take a high risk because I got this money easily. But this is just my perspective, and I think it depends on the mood, most of the time I withdraw the money by fulfilling the minimum requirements, and then suddenly take a high risk,  its maybe random.

[HelliumZ]

- Do you spend money at the casino in an attempt to win more than the initial prize amount (because it's easy money) that you earned easily and can risk?
- Do you immediately withdraw from the casino to avoid spending the money and save it?
- Do you play partly \ withdraw partly (what's the ratio?).

It depends on where the deposit dollars are deposited. If they are deposited in the wallet, they are not deposited back into the gambling account in my case, but if they are deposited directly into the gambling account, then in that case I do not withdraw the deposited dollars, but I do Sportsbetting while it is in the gambling account. And if for some reason I have a profit, I withdraw the profit money as needed, and if there is no need, I leave the profit and the dollars in the raffle draw in my gambling account.

However, if I win the free bet raffle, I use the profit money from that free bet again to gamble. Because since I was given a free bet to test their site, I use the dollars or free spins they gave me correctly.

[Findingnemo]

I don't remember winning anything at all from free raffles but let me tell you what will I do when I win some, I will just withdraw the balance if there is no wagering requirement or I complete the wagering and take the money out, even though it is free money still you had the luck to win, so I am not going to waste it on high risky wagers.

[DPHOR]

If i am not mistakenly there was a raffle I joined then and I happened to win and they said it is withdrawable, what I did was to cash it out and spending on something more important to me, thus, I could have used it to gamble the more but then I noticed that spending it back there could make no sense to me therefore I have to cash it out to make use of it to what that is mostly important and there is no big deal about it for any reason.

[knuckey]

If it can be withdrawn, I immediately withdraw it, but most prizes from contests have requirements for withdrawal, so they force us to play. I personally treat the money as real money even though it comes from prizes. I think it's worth enjoying. I prioritize withdrawals because if I want to play, I can make a deposit at any time.
