What the DraftKings bonus is really worth
The DraftKings offer — Bet $5, get $200 in bonus bets — is advertised as $200, but it's really worth about $140 (near-guaranteed — you get the bonus bets regardless of the result).
The catch
Not paid up front: it arrives as eight $25 bonus bets, two released every seven days across 21 days, each one click-to-claim and each expiring 7 days after it lands. Miss a claim window and that part is gone.
