How Do Free Bets Work?
When you receive a free bet offer from a sportsbook, it is fairly cut and dry. If the free bet wins, then you can walk away with your winnings and move on to your next wager.However, if your free bet loses, the sportsbook will cover your bet in various ways:
- The betting site will either give you a free bet back at the sum of the predetermined amount you saw when you claimed the promotion.
- The sportsbook could elect to refund your initial wager in the sum of the aforementioned predetermined amount in the form of site credits or bonus funds which you can not cash out at most books.
What Happens If A Free Bet Pushes?
If a free bet pushes and is voided, the fate of the free stake is at the discretion of the sportsbook.A sports betting site may simply count the pushed wager as your free bet. You would then move on to your next wager. However, some may elect to give you a second chance since the initial bet did not have a win or loss outcome.
These decisions are always dependent on the betting site. Since all are different and have different rules and regulations, you should always be sure to read the terms and conditions of the free bet offer. It is also a good idea to not bet even number spreads or totals to help minimize the chances of a push occurring. For example, a bet on the Eagles -4 has a chance of pushing, where Broncos -7.5 will either be a win or a loss.
