If you have an account with both Intertops and WSEX... and if you have time to read this stuff..

Bet 200$ on St-Louis 12-1 (Intertops)
Sell 10 shares of St-Louis @ 25$ (WSEX) *Note: you need 75$ in your account per share to cover the potential losses.

If St-Louis is eliminated in the 1st or 2nd round - you end up with a 50$ net profit. No more complications.

Now if St-louis reaches the Western final, let's figure out the worst case, against Colorado.. Colorado's serie line should be around -225. Bet 450 on Colorado to win the serie. If Colorado wins, you "break even" overall, since you don't make any profit - nor losses - on your shares, you lose 200$ on your straight future and win 200 on the serie.

But if St-Louis reaches the final, worst scenario is that they'll meet New Jersey. You should get New Jersey around -120 at worst at this point (serie line). Bet 1140$ on New Jersey. If New Jersey wins, you lose: 25$ * 10 (250$) on your shares, you lose 200$ on your straight future, and you allready lost 450$ on Colorado. But you win 950$ on New Jersey, so you end up with a 50$ profit.

If St-Louis wins the cup, you lose 75$ * 10 (750$) on your shares, you allready lost 1140$ on NJ and 450$ on Colorado. But you win 2400$ on your straight future, so you end up with 60$ net profit.

As you can see, you can't really lose. Ok this might sound a bit complicated and it takes lots of $ to make a few, but here I pointed out the worst possible scenarios (Colorado and New Jersey); if you're lucky enough you could end up with St-louis in the final facing, let's say, Philadelphia (but I don't want that!!), and at this point, you should get better than -120. Another thing too, this is good for earning your bonus -fair and square- without risking anything*, as you "rolled over" some of your money in both accounts.

*Here I say "without risking anything" but you could end up losing if, let's say, St-louis reaches the SC final, but Chris pronger and Al MacInnis just got injured in the western final, so you might have to lay a little bit more on -let's say- New Jersey. But globally, I think that this is a good way to earn your 10-20% bonus the "easy" way, and you should also normally end up with a small profit.
