I heard about the promo from a guy at work today. I have looked all over the internet for someone able to explain what that catch could be or what the advantage is to them. From everything I read, it seems to be ligit and I guess they did the same thing a few weeks ago for a soccer game.

I guess the reason the would do it is to have people continue betting on their site. I am going to keep looking around, but from what I have read it seems to be true

Every review I see of Mansion is a positive one. There really does appear to be no catch. My thinking is that they will lay off whatever $ they take in on Pittsburgh w/ another book and just eat the juice. They may still lose a good amount of money, but I guess it's worth it for the publicity and potential new customers.

Unless I find something negative by the end of this week, I will be taking advantage of this. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

I chatted online with Mansion.... please review the transcript and try to come up with additional questions. I am ready to make the bet here and hedge with another one for a guaranteed profit of about $450, but I want to make sure I am covered

Welcome to Chat.Mansion, MANSION Peter will be right with you.

MANSION Peter:
question on pittsburgh $1100 bet

MANSION Peter:
Hello snoozer, how may I help you?

snoozer:
I have questions about the $1100 wager on the pittsburgh game. If I
win, how fast will the $2100 been in the account

MANSION Peter:
The match is normally resulted within an hour or so of the match being
completed.

snoozer:
so no matter what, I am guaranteed to at a minimum have $1100 in my
account after the game

MANSION Peter:
The refund will be in your account within 3 working days.

snoozer:
under terms/conditions it says Mansion can withdraw or amend this offer
at any time without prior notice... does this mean if I make the bet,
they can then remove the promotion, if so, can my bet be cancelled

MANSION Peter:
No, if the promotion is withdrawn or the lines are amended, the bet you
placed will stand as per the Terms and Conditions at the time of you
placing your bet.

snoozer:
so if I bet $1100 today, and the promotion is cancelled, If I lose, I
will not get my refund?

MANSION Peter:
Yes that is correct

snoozer:
so they can cancel the promotion and would still be required to keep my
bet, even though I may not get a refund if pitt loses

MANSION Peter:
Yes that is correct.

MANSION Peter:
Sorry, your bet would stand

snoozer:
there is a possibilty that I could place my bet and if pitt loses, I
lose my bet because they cancelled the promo?

MANSION Peter:
No, as stated previously "if the promotion is withdrawn or the lines
are amended, the bet you placed will stand as per the Terms and
Conditions at the time of you placing your bet"

snoozer:
so if I made my bet today, no matter what happens with the promo, I
will still get my refund if pitt loses.

MANSION Peter:
Yes that is correct

snoozer:
Is there any way that I may not recieve my refund if I make my bet
before the promo is cancelled

MANSION Peter:
Please be assured that if you place the bet and it wins you will win
and if it loses you will be refunded your stake.

snoozer:
what is the benefit for Mansion by doing this promotion

MANSION Peter:
This promotion is to attract new players to our website to see what
MANSION has to offer and is also available to existing Players too.

snoozer:
is there any penalty for me to remove the $2100 immediatley after the
game, assuming I win

MANSION Peter:
There are no wagering requirements once your account has been credited.

As I posted in the general forum, I have placed this bet with mansion and will be hedging it most likely with another book to ensure profit. It seems totally legit and the ONLY catch is you need to be able to provide a photo ID in order to withdraw funds.

Done deal for me as well. Go Steelers!

Welcome to Chat.Mansion, MANSION Julie will be right with you.

MANSION Julie:
RE: the $1100 bet on the steelers for your promo. The way I understand it, I would need to place an $1100 bet on the Steelers -4.5 to win $1000 in your sportsbook. If the Steelers win by 5 points or more, I then have $2100 in my account. I can withdraw this money at any time provided I have sent in a copy of my driver's license. There is no waiting period or rollover requirements. If Pittsburgh wins by 4 points or less or Miami wins, then the bet is a loss and I will be credited back the $1100 I wagered. So there is absolutely no risk of loss to me by taking advantage of this promo. Are all of the above statements correct? I also emailed a copy of my license a couple of hours ago in case I want to request a payout. Is everything in order or is there anything else I need to do? Thanks for your help. I'm a little nervous about this promotion - it looks too good to be true.

MANSION Julie:
please don't be nervous the promotion is valid and what you have stated above is correct

godsfavoritedog:
great. thanks so much for your time

MANSION Julie:
No problem thank you
