I also take my rewards in cash back now because when I did take the free bets there is usually a match that gets postponed or cancelled so it voids the entire bet so I ended up losing it because of that.
Currently at silver gets around $5 in mbtc for each one when I progress through the ranks.

I should choose cashback more often...
I'm also doing the same, I used to go for free spins but after you guys pointed out the difference in the main thread few months ago I suddenly switched to cashback no matter what since most of the reward ranges from 0.05-0.08 mbtc. Last month I think the highest amount i've seen was 0.1 mbtc but I still took the cashback and I remember there was an instance where the cashback was higher than the other rewards.
I tried slots a long time ago I think and didn't really enjoy it. I find that most forum people who bet on dice (which is the ones I knew the most before Sportsbet) all don't really play slots, I feel like maybe it's something very different as an appetite for sports people also.
So yes, at the moment I guess I am going to switch a lot more to cashback now just to "save" myself some money

I choose freebets or cashback depending on mood. I should choose cashback more often...
It actually depends on your planned ticket odds. Free bets look like totally not worthy since they are just marginally bigger than cash back. In order to get cash from your free bet you have to hit @2.0 odds. That is why I never choose free bets. On the other hand as buwaytress pointed out to me if you play them on high enough odds the situation changes, but we are talking real high odds here. Definitely go for cashback, unless you're going to use it on sports betting anyway with odds above 2/1 as Trofo says. And then make sure you don't put it on singles, because voided freebets just go away to a dark corner and never come back. I've always gone for freebet, and always put my freebets on specials or accas simply because I don't bet in casino (except obviously for the challenges).
For me, it's a fixed 10% additional amount in btc on freebet as compared to cashback. It's not good enough to take the risk, but that means a 10/1 bet with cash becomes a 11/1 bet with the freebet.

Yes! Also +33 mbtc for me too. Happy days for us all! A small profit for me also, I must learn lessons and get an AI clone to roulette for me every day next year 
I think the rewards are higher when you progress to the higher ranks i.e from Silver to Gold the rewards should be much higher than what you actually get from all those Gold rank milestone. I think I chose 0.5 mbtc free bet as the reward for getting to Gold, this is much higher than any other milestone reward in silver or gold
So it's not just my imagination then Trofo as I'm sure the rewards go up and down from tier to tier and also definitely has increased in BTC amount. Which is definitely strange as BTC price actually is more expensive now then it was 6 months ago and I'm almost 100% sure rewards was lower 6 months ago! Maybe now it is being fixed fluctuatingly.

It is a bit random, it is possible to get really small rewards in higher ranks as well as quite nice reward early on. Then it also depends on BTC price, I believe Sportsbet is doing the math in fiat and pays off in BTC per actual rate.

Speaking off, looks like we got credited 33 mbtc -- I'm actually not 100% sure of the exact amount as I didn't keep track of my wallet balance but it should be 33.33 as the final scoreboard shows exactly 30 people left. Definitely keep betting on BJ specials. It's remarkably +EV for some strange reason!
Yeah that number should be right. Oh well right on break even for me, great experience though definitely going to participate for the next one because this live casino contest is kinda EV+ as well if we can get to minimum 40 players at the end of the contest
Never got 0.5mbtc freebet I'm sure, but I'll keep an eye out now.
Yeah I got one last month
0.5154 mbtc exactly. I think this was it, just look at that random number though, obviously thats not credited by steve or sportsbet nor do I ever bet with that kind of random number. Kinda shame that this one didnt hit lol, the odds was totally great though
Never got 0.5mbtc freebet I'm sure, but I'll keep an eye out now.
I remember good old days when my every reward in higher tiers was over 5 mBTC. But as I said they are connected to the BTC price so it is difficult to get to the real value in retrospective. BTC was way less than now, maybe closing on to 20k but I am just guessing.I am taking just cash rewards, and I get 0.3-0.4 mBTC in gold sometimes, sometimes it is way less. Sort of like if I pass trough multiple tears in the same day I get way less than if I open them ever second day for instance. Could be just a feeling though.
I don't think about rewards much, I just collect them and bet again
Yep pretty solid start for both of us. Well atleast this would make up for my 'loss' in the live casino hero ( well not loss but break even oh whatever ). Good starting balance for the year, might use it on some BJ special bet later today if I could catch one. Its been a while since I participated in one

Well done to all of us =D

I hit probably only 1 of them on a big special and everything else lost haha but there's definitely been an increase in BTC amounts as I'm pretty sure I never got even 0.1 mbtc per level in past months. Never got 0.5mbtc freebet I'm sure, but I'll keep an eye out now.
@arallmuus well, looks like you and me both got some sweet hits on that 1mbtc freebet eh? I actually did pretty okay with freebets finishing them all up over the last 2 days:
Pretty solid start to the new year for me, considering these were all freebets from forum promos.

Have the rewards increased? It seems a little random to me, like sometimes the amount goes up and down, even though you progress higher and higher.

Nowadays I am mostly in gold and maybe I get some Platinum rewards. But all my bets are on sporsbook, no casino to wash the money
Yeah you only need 5 points to progress from Steel to Bronze so thats literally one bet to move up. Something is definitely wrong on my end, I contacted support about it and she told me to log out then clear cache ( doesnt seems to work ) then will contact me back through email after she told the team about it. I thought I was the only one but it seems @leea-1334 had the same issue as well but its all good though
I have had a similar occurrence on my account where it was progressing slowly even though I wagered the same amount as before. But not receiving the same to my progress bar of points for the clubhouse.But it seemed to have resolved itself as I just got those points added.
And I also noticed the vip rank rewards was more than previously. So this could also be the reason for the slow progression:
They have upped the reward's amount received per vip rank achieved.
I actually never even know how all of this works to be honest, all I know is I end most of my months on silver, and of course because of the Live Casino Hero challenge, Gold. Never touched platinum although a few times came very very close (like on the last stage before Platinum). Are any of you guys VIP players? I guess you have to reach max stage for a year maybe to get that recognition right?

I am not at Steel now so I don't know if the bar stopped moving. But only 85 points so maybe something is wrong at your end!

Not as big a hit as yours, but this was done live after Saka scored, so it was pretty cool to get it in, if I waited til HT it would have been a bit more too with Super Boost!
Then my man Antonio scores first for this special... Palace were 6:1 in corners by half-time, and pulled away 8:1 in second half, so that was very comfortably won.
Liverpool drew, or I would have had a nice one to cap the night off. Sigh =)

I made a profit, but only almost 20mbtc, after deducting losses. So it's still $900. That's awesome for me.
Thats actually alot, you only lost 13mbtc out of 4 months of daily wagering. I think most people probably get around 13-18 mbtc on average so that should be a little above average
Yes, and in fact I could have kept it down much lower if I did not keep trying to chase back losses which were quite small. Roulette brought me down badly before even halfpoint in the season, I would lose 5 mbtc easily in a day, but after the last 2 bonuses (Day 70 especially), I managed to bring the losses down.
I think, if IIRC the bonuses all in all was something like 10 mbtc cash if you played them well, so in fact, if you spread it out to 100 days you could afford to lose 0.1 mbtc a day, which was definitely doable if you play like a robot with no emotions lol
Hey man, nice bet won too
I am not at Steel now so I don't know if the bar stopped moving. But only 85 points so maybe something is wrong at your end!
Anyway, the funny thing is I wagered 5mbtc but my clubhouse level did not even move 1 point until bets cleared today for sports then I got several hundred. If I am not mistaken when I bet live before the bar moves up even every settled bet.
This 'glitch' happened to my account as well, I think my clubhouse bar stopped increasing like a week before the contest ended as well. I thought this has something to do with monthly limit on live casino or some sort because I wagered quite a bit on the last month. I also wagered 10 mbtc for the last two days starting from 1st and few sportsbetting but it still doesnt increase at all
Im still at steel lol
Amazing hits on your new year bets was this from the recent promo? 5 mbtc just like that wow
Yeah it was from the latest promotions on games and rounds section. I got 1mbtc free bets from it and yeah as usual, I tend to bet on parlay bet like this and this one happened to hit somehow lol
I got so paranoid I even betted 5 mbtc today just in case 
Lol me too, I woke up and first thing that I did was open up roulette then set up autobet for 5mbtc wager lol. This might take a while until my body forget this daily routine lol but yeah I'll probably do that tomorrow as well, trying to get my clubhouse level to silver atleast.
Anyway Im getting some new year 'luck' from free bets though
West Ham leads with 3 goals now at 52nd minutes
Indeed,,, I think I even was tempted to bet again today but because the rules clearly say 31st December, I will not go to waste another opportunity to keep money before the new year is even one week old

Same here, these past few months i've been having trouble hitting parlays from free bets but these past few days I got two in a row and it felt too good to be true. lol Also wagered 5mbtc for no reason
unfortunate that we won't get the final update until Monday though.
That looks like a winner @arallmuus so congratulations on having a great start to the new year with that winning betslip using a freebet!
West ham was up 3-0 after that penalty at the end of the 1st half so they made close by the final minutes ending it 3-2.
Also congratulations to the ones who managed to make it through the end of the casino hero competition to the last day.
That is a pretty large prize amount to receive it being $1500 worth in btc as somebody mentioned bitcoin's value has gone lower since the beginning of the challenge so you get more bitcoins.
Atleast that's the way I see it.
