I have been using pointsbet this year so far. They have really stepped it up. Almost daily they are giving out free bets now. Most have to be used on certain bets like in game parlays or nfl lines or whatever but free bets are free bets. They add up and cost nothing
They all suck and are slow. I find that FanDuel and draft kings suck equally.
Draftking is slightly better since it allows you to search games by team name and not have to scroll through them all. On the phone at least.

I used to use a wide assortment of them, but anymore just use DK and Points Bet. I like that they sync to my action app so I don't have to manually log my bets. I still have the Bet MGM and Fan Duel apps on my phone, and I use them to line/odd shop some. For example, I wanted to bet on KU win total prior to the season, most books had it set at 2.5, but the odds at DK and PB were lousy. Found it at Fan Duel at -140 where the other books were like -165, -170 etc.
If you're serious about it, you should have them all and use a site like https://unabated.com/ to get the best line and most value for each game you like. I'm a high volume player and have all of the offshore books because I live in a state where it isn't sanctioned. Betonline is the best offshore imo.
You can’t bet on sports in Colorado? That makes no sense they have more weed shops than Starbucks.
I actually live in Mn now just haven't updated my bio, not sure what the hold up is here
I haven't registered for any sports apps yet and am looking at taking the plunge for this weekend and putting it all on the wolverines. What's my risk? If I get $1000 free bet at MGM and $1250 at Caesar if I lose can I just bet my free bets against each other and get most of my money back? Or what would be the best strategy to reclaim the most of my original money?
Either that or you can bet both sides on your first bet (one at each) and then just come out with a free bet.
I did once and felt the need to shower afterwards. Last week of the season I parlayed TOE and Minnesota to win since that combination of results was what TOE needed to make the B1G title game.
I wouldn't recommend using a free bet on UM to win. With the free bets you don't receive the stake back, only the winnings. So even though you would could possibly use a $1000 Free Bet for Michigan you would be looking at only increasing your account by $200. I would also look again to see if the promos are indeed free bets, or if they're risk-free offers, where you get a free bet back for the dollar amount of your first bet if it loses. As that would change the way I would bet them as well.
For sure on your first point, I assumed it was ATS. To the second point, if you bet both sides of a game with the risk-free promo you're guaranteed to get one free bet out of it while breaking even (minus juice) on the original bet.
I think we're on the same page here, ATS is a entirely different ballgame and would be worthy of a free bet. Using his free-bet promos against each other would guarantee one of them wins and he receives a free bet for the other (still losing the juice). My main point was to make sure the free bet wasn't wasted at -400 or something similar, as I've seen a lot of new bettors make that mistake.
