The point is the house doesn't lose ANY money by giving out this bonus. This is not like taking the bonus and losing it to another PLAYER where the house doesn't get it back. The lost sportsbook bonus goes directly to the houe. If he bets the bounus and loses it (TO THEM) they come out at zero. If he bets the bonus and wins, they can take the $120 out of his account when he tries to withdraw (unless he clears it).

How can you say they should PROFIT off giving someone a bonus? He already lost the bonus back to them, then they are taking an ADDITIONAL $120 from him, they already got their bonus back! Net $120 to the casino!

It's not like I'm asking them to just give out free money. This bonus should be a zero sum game (minus vig, and unless he clears it). And it's not like they aren't getting anything out of giving out bonuses, they are doing it to attract players.

If they allowed everyone a free bet they wouldn't be able to afford to give bonuses to their actual customers. These have to be restrictive because there are so many bums on the net. In this case they agreed to give him $120 he hand't earned. WHy would someone play a bonus and then complain about the terms if you don't like the terms or are too lazy to read them don't play. Online casinos exist to make a profit not to give money away to bums. If you dont' like how they give free money tell them you don't want it that you prefer to just play yopur own money.
