This is especially the case if an underdog wins a popular game that people bet on- one event can cost you thousands. Luckily, successful bookies can make anywhere fromR$5000-$10,000 in a single week.

A sportsbook agent (or bookie) is responsible for a variety of things that allow sports betting platforms to function. The main thing sportsbook agents do is collect payments from players and distribute winnings. They also keep a record of all bets placed and odds, preventing mistakes from happening.

Bonus Bets are bets that do not use the bettors actual money and instead are free bets that the Sportsbook has given the bettor.

With Bonus Bets, only the winnings are returned to you. You will not get the stake returned as cash in your wallet. If you're using site credit, the stake will also be returned to you if your bet wins.
