Do you still have your BetPoints™ on bookmaker.eu?

[garyking63]

Been there a long time, up about 10K in last month, overall not sure. Still have my betpoints and cash out daily just in case.

Unless it's changed, the betpoints immediately redeem there upon request, it doesn't go to an employee for approval or something. It's a guessing game, but they're notorious for confiscating points when they eventually cut you off from points/bonuses, so i'd be redeeming them

2-3 years ago... 300 bets at 60%... wasn't that your famous NCAAB streak, with an Open Parlay that hit for 80k? I remember it!

Yes that was during that timeframe good memory.

JD was that an open parlay l?? I’ve forgotten…

Yes.

I don’t have that many. I gotta start building them.

Hard to build them with 10 dollar wagers guy.

Last year I got $150 back on a 30K wager that I lost, but I’m only a Gold member not a volume guy. To put these points into some perspective.

You are saying that, if my accounts get reviewed and I get limited, I'll lose any and all BetPoints, pretty much guaranteed, as part of the inevitable 'limiting' process that 99% winners probably face? Plz confirm I read that correctly.

Damn...

Yes. there are plenty of posts about bookmaker (or its sister books) confiscating betpoints when they disable an account's bonuses and points. I don't think using them now increases your chance of being points/bonus banned, so i'd be using them now.

1) The way I read your last post, gbets84, is that betpoints and real money wagering aren't necessarily reviewed by the same 'people' at BM. So just making a ton of betpoints could be allowed - UNLESS I hit -120 wagers at a 60% clip for a full season and/or just get stable 5-6% ROI on huge volume, day in and day out. And it's unlikely just huge volume (and large quantities of Betpoints I redeem) will trigger 'the review'. BM probably doesn't care enough.

But there are additional factors, like maybe betting a stale line or two, or initiating a withdrawal - that could make risk managers review you, and limit you much faster.

For now, I'll just consider betpoints a nice 'loyalty perk'. Same thing as a loyalty card in many other businesses: I go and buy groceries at a local store, they give me a plastic card and I accumulate 1% kickback that I can use, once I have at least $10 on this card (once I have spent $1000 on groceries in that store).

2) I lost most of the profits I've built up on baseball, live betting tennis... so I have to have another killer month to worry about this. For now, I got my answer - and I've redeemed a bunch of 5000 bp 'coupons' for $25 each and used them.

Shit, this is a hard thing to succeed at.

My bet points were removed and they asked me to convert the rest when they did.

This was many years ago.

I was lucky.

Many others have had them removed and all the points taken away with no ability to cash them.

I would definitely use them as you go if worried about that.

Great data point FD.

They quit allowing me to earn points and tried to take the ones I had but made good of it and paid me out for the points I had.

Just reading through here...I don't know if there is a solid answer as to their method and "red flags". I used to redeem them every month. I figured if they decided to pull that perk, it was only a month of volume rebate at risk. Justbet shut off deposit bonuses/betpoints first, then Bookmaker. That seemed backwards to me, just based on wins/volume but maybe plays I put through JB hit their criteria...who knows (It would probably be an amazing week to spend at a shop like that in their Risk Mgt dept to see what they do).
All this said, no notice, no correspondence, just stopped accruing betpoints and checked the cashier...no reup bonuses, all in one swoop. I was still able to redeem what was there, which I honestly figured would be the case at a shop like BM.
No issues with how they handled it. I don't expect a shop to keep handing out perks if I have a decent positive position vs them.

Is your account still usable? How much can you bet on a) MLB ML and b) Ohtani to score a HR tonight?

(for me it's thousands on ML (nobody cares, odds aren't great), and $500 on Ohtani prop but only $250 on Ohtani over 1.5 bases (which sometimes is 2.5 bases!)

You’re not allowed to hit your max bet multiple times to meet your risk needs ?

Hmmm I'll have to check my points at Justbet

You can go on chat and ask to have your status raised to platinum or even diamond. I'm guessing you've given them enough action to at least get platinum. It will give you a 15% deposit bonus instead of 10% and it makes your bet points a little more valuable too.

Will do great idea !
