So I found a couple of different sites online that feature a deposit bonus code for $100 when you sign up for $100 with Caribsports sportsbook. Unfortunatly any research I attempt to do leads me to sites with questionable motives. So three questions...

1. Has anyone ever used this offer?
2. Has anyone ever used this site without the offer?
3. Would anyone be willing to sign up and test it out for me and report back? :)

I know the old saying that it it looks to good to be true to probably is, but I figured I would take a stab in the dark and throw it out here. Worst case is I re-up at betonsports or go to bodog or something of the sort.

Are you talking about Caribsports.com?

I was referred there by some friends and used it quite often, but I didn't use that offer. Overall, I don't have one bad thing to say and their support was pretty responsive as well.

How many times do you have to roll it over to obtain the bonus?...it could be very hard to redeem it.

Yeah, caribsports. Well at least if the offer is bogus the site seems to be legit. I am getting tired of betonsports and their impossible to redeem bonus offers.

That was what wasn't very clear. But a few of the sites made it sound almost instant. It seemed fishy, but like I said in a couple of the above posts not getting any bonus wouldn't be much different than BOS is right now anyways!

OK. I just got off the phone with caribsportsbook and I am more confused than when I started. They will credit you immediatly with a $100 bonus to play with, but when you go to cash out they will take off the $100 credit. I am trying to wrap my head around how good a deal this really is. I guess I could deposit $100 and get the $100 bonus and bet it all on a game and win $190 or whatever. So techincally I would make $190 on a $100 bet. Not sure how this will play out with smaller bets though. This is kind of unusual, do other sites do something like this? Am I understanding it correctly?

The $100 comes out of whatever you're trying to cashout. So if you win 190 and try to cash out, you'll get 90. Or, I imagine, if you lose both your deposit and the $100 bonus and you continue to play with them, you'll still owe the $100 should you try to cash out in the future.

So is this a good deal? What would be the dollar equivalent if they just gave me money? I am not really seeing how this is that useful if I gamble $20/$25 a game. Just an insurance in case I drop below $100?

Since youre betting with the vig at 9/10, its as close to a 100% bonus as you can get. The reason is that with such a low starting BR - most players will bust out of their initial c note.

Overall, its a good deal for low level players from a respected book thats been around and will pay out if you win.

Make the deposit and bet the entire amount on Germany to win over Sweden tomorrow morning. You wont double up since the odds are high, but it will be a nice start to your account.

Unless you have multiple outs, you wont last long betting 1/6 to 1/8th of your total roll per game without a quick start from the gates. Then again, if its just a couple hundred - money management isnt that imperative.

Panerd, any update(s)?

If you didnt cash in on Germany, go ahead and play Brazil over Ghana again today. Well, that is, if you like money.

I don't want to threadjack this too much, but I was looking for a decent sports betting website you could actually cash out on w/out too much hand wringing. Is Caribsports a decent outfit or would you recommend something else?
