No, I do not. It's crass, selfish, short-sighted, and smacks of desperation. Anybody can do the sports betting bonus exploitation after an hour of explanation. Why someone wouldn't simply tell their family and friends how to do it, and if necessary loan them the bankroll to do it, is beyond me.

This isn't some complex machine play or likely-to-expire-next-week promo. These sports betting promos can be exploited by anyone with an IQ over 40, and they are going to exist next season, next year, and probably next decade. Just tell your family and friends how to do it. That's why most people call them "family and friends." Because "family and friends" help each other out as we make our way through the world.

One guy bragged on making 28K exploiting the bonuses while using the names of family and friends and -- get this -- tipped them 2K. LOL. If anything, reverse it. Maybe family and friends tip the AP the 2K for showing the way. Don't exploit family and friends with some schtick about sports betting bonuses requiring some AP expertise. Anybody with a working brain, who can order off a McDonald's menu, can exploit the sports betting bonuses.
Oftentimes, people do not want to learn how to do this stuff no matter how easy or lucrative it is. Some people dont have the mindset and mentality or they are not motivated. Sometimes They just have no real interest in actually doing it, they would just like some risk-free easy money without much effort. You can show different 2 people in similar situations, (bankrolls, ages, family, etc) the exact same good AP opportunities One will continue and do great while the other will do poorly and move on to somthing else.

Yeah, well, Axelwolf, I don't know what kind of people you grew up with or hang out with, but I'm from hard coal country, where people know how to work and know how to gamble. I'd say about two people out of a hundred might turn down the opportunity for free money, and that's because they are (1) dumb as rocks or (2) think gambling is giving in to the devil, or (3) think you are lying to them.

Now family and friends shouldn't think you're lying to them, so I have a real hard time seeing people passing on free money that takes an hour of study (if they know nothing) and an hour or two of execution (if they are mega-thorough).

The bottom line is that almost anyone can do this, so volunteering "AP" skills while tipping them 10% or some goddawful amount is crass, selfish, and exploitative. Just show them how to do it (if they are family/friends), loan them the money for optimal results (if they are family/friends), and get out of their way. Maybe hint they can tip you a few bucks for their education.

Very few actual sports bettors would consider it couth to sponge off other people's names and tip them 10% or something. It's desperate with a touch of sleazy.
