Are there any sportsbooks out there with straight-up offers?

[Cashish]

I'm new to the on-line sports wagering game and since most people here have used these betting services before,
is there any out there that offers a great sign-up and ongoing promotion without any of the bull that FORCES you to wager more than you may want to before requesting a payout?
I've checked out quite a few sites that have some nice sounding offers, but when I read the fine print, it states that I MUST wager 3-5x the deposit amount PLUS the damn bonus before I request a payout.
As I said, I'm kind of new to this game and so until I learn the ropes, I don't want to feel obligated to spend a lot more than I'd like to.
Also, what if they suck or don't payout anyway? Then I not only lose my deposit, I also lose what I was spending in order to even just request a payout.
Would appreciate any feedback anyone can offer me. Thanks in advance!

Cashish in my opinion www.betcris.com is the best and strongest in the business. I believe they offer a 10% SIGN UP BONUS AND THAT IS REAL, you do not have to bet 2-3x before you can cash out. I try and stay away from those places. Also they are the strongest book on payouts you can request a western union payout and receive your cash within 30 mins mon-fri and you can receive a check overnight. They are solid as a rock.
Good luck and be careful.

I wouldn't make bonuses a key factor in choosing where to play.

Longevity in this industry. Solid track record, etc.etc. should be your criteria.

Search the archives in this forum. It goes back a few years. Ask alot of questions, either here in the forum, or contact me at [email protected]

Check out "the list" linked above.

Also, one of the most popular "bonuses" out there is reduced juice wagering. Several books linked above offer anwhere from -105 to -108 with no restrictions. Over the long haul, that's better than any bonus out there.

Thanks for all your input. It was helpful. I'll definately take it into consideration as I am still doing more research. Just in case.
Many thanks guys!

Are you wary of books that offer you great bonuses, then pull the old bait and switch on you?

Do you want a 10% re-load bonus WITHOUT having to wager 3-5 times the deposit PLUS the bonus amount before being allowed to request a payout?

How about to win great prizes like Palm XIIs that real people ACTUALLY win AND receive?

What about being eligible for a great deposit and free wagers WITHOUT having to be one of the first 100 callers or some other unfair criteria?
