    Bet 365 are offering 50% Bonus on any winning accum of 2 or more teams in U.S. sports.

    I know sweet feck all about U.S. sports but theres a few knockin around here who do.

    If a short priced double can be pulled off the 50% bonus would make it way more attractive.

    So lads any of ye NBA or Nfl followers any selections?

    Sounds like a hell of a deal. I used to watch basketball quite a lot but haven't in ages. I take it American Racing wouldn't be counted

    You sure about that ft9? I think it's up to 50%, and that for 12-fold and up.

    Ft9 you had our hopes up :pac:
    Ah well 5% bonus on a double is better than a kick in the hole.

    Oh man good spot, it's MLB too!! Considering that my betting log (below) is based on doubles, this could prove very very useful come next season!

    I had been looking for an excuse to get away from PP for baseball betting as their 1st half match betting markets can be slow in going up and I've missed out in putting a team in a double because of the delay in starting times before.

    Interesting....hope they keep up the deal!

    Still though 5% on a double aint too bad!

    I did! I know I quoted the OP but I looked it up before posting. I think that's great. My main bet is baseball doubles, I don't particularly like the bookie I currently use. The prices I deal with can be very tight at times, so an offer of 5% on each bet I win is very attractive, and fair play to them, they keep it up by March and I'll switch to them.

    Yeah 5% is grand, not a thing wrong with it.

    50% would have been so much nicer though:D

    Just switch now i say, they've been doing that for a long time, and have been doing up to 100% on soccer for at least the last 3 years, so i assume the same time frame with American sports

    They've been doing this since August, maybe even earlier. Frankly, as much as I dislike Bet365, when it comes to American sports they're just miles ahead of PP, especially with things like Additional Points Spread, which PP don't even offer :rolleyes:

    Yeah but season is over. Only matchup left is the world series, so no opportunity for doubles. I won't be gambling on US sports again until Spring, so no need to switch now.
