Wagering with ESPN BET
Since this is a bet insurance offer, you’ll only earn bonus bets if you lose. Thus, it behooves you to take a chance on an underdog. If the wager hits, you’ll collect a substantial profit. If you lose, you’ll get the value of your wager back as bonus bets.
Say you put down $75 in cash on KAT as the First FG Scorer at +600. If he scores first, you’d collect $450 in bonus bets plus you’d keep your cash stake. The First FG Scorer is a great option for this promotion because the odds are heavily weighted and a relatively small cash stake will earn you a nice profit.
Even if that bet doesn’t hit, you’ll still get $75 in bonus bets once that wager settles.
