Find somewhere else offering you 10-1 odds to bet the Bears' spread. I'm waiting …
Sorry, it's just not going to happen! Fading Rovell has major benefits, beyond just the sheer enjoyment that comes with Darren losing.
To bet these crazy odds, all you have to do is:
- Click this link
- Deposit at least $20
- Bet the Bears' spread as your first bet
Important: If you're in Illinois, do NOT bet on the Bears crowd booster as your first bet after registering. You must bet on the normal Bears spread or moneyline as your first bet with this promo. You can, however, bet the Bears crowd booster as your second bet.
That's it!
Chicago is currently in the +3 neighborhood on the road in Detroit, and oddsmakers see these team as nearly equals. Lucky for you, you get them plus the points and +1000 on the juice, which means you can turn $20 into $200 if they lose by a point or two (or win!).
In summary: you get to Fade Rovell, get a chance at a crazy payout and watch Rovell suffer. Sounds good to me!

For better or worse, Mitchell Trubisky will be getting the start in Week 1 for the Bears. And while the former No. 2 overall pick has been far from a world-beater thus far, he's yet to get shut out in a game.
And that's all you need from Trubisky on Sunday to cash this promotion. Points of any kind from the Bears — a field goal, a touchdown, a measly safely — will turn $20 into $150 for you. Not bad, eh?
All you have to do is:
- Click this link
- Deposit at least $20
- Bet at least $20 on the Bears moneyline or spread as your first bet
Important: If you're in Illinois, do NOT bet on the Bears crowd booster as your first bet after registering. You must bet on the normal Bears spread or moneyline as your first bet with this promo. You can, however, bet the Bears crowd booster as your second bet.
If your initial bet on the Bears wins, you'll win that money, too!
Note: We've used the Bears as an example, but you can bet on any team this week and win $150 if they score at least a point!
Start your NFL season off right with this easy winner!
BET $20, WIN $150 IF THE BEARS SCORE AGAINST DETROIT!
