Check out the Cherry Casino bonus offered on the Wizard of Odds website. It is a $100 bonus on a $100 deposit with a $2500 WR, BJ allowed. I cleared the bonus in an hour with $2-3 bets and received my cashout in 10 hours. I've never played on faster software. Enjoy.

Edit: Yes, there is. Cashier-> Bonus details.

Easy money! Everyone thank Homer for the gift!!

On a side note, I found lots of good whoring ideas at bonuswhores.com. They have a whole section devoted to casino whoring as well as poker. If you haven't checked it out, take a look. It's a great place to get your education.

Where is Cherry casino listed on the site?
I see a small box with 4 casinos and a 9.9 rating or something, but the 2nd one down is blank. Is that where it is/was?
Did they take it down?

Thanks for letting us know Homer. Another satisfied customer /images/graemlins/grin.gif. I must be a retard or something because it took me 2 hours to clear the bonus though.

ssomega :The link to use is the advertisement on the left side of the main page of wizardofodds.com (3rd ad down)

Warning: using the Wizard of Odds link, I did not get a $100 bonus but only $30. Wizard of Odds lists no bonus code, however my guess is Cherry's software still expects one. Perhaps "Wizard of Odds" is the code? I just e-mailed support, will report back on whether or not they took care of it.

BTW, the link is toward the bottom of the "bonus offers" section of the Wizard of Odds main page.

LoyalFrush
07-17-2004, 02:55 AM
No code is required. There are actually 2 bonuses given (a $30 regular and $70 wizard of odds bonus). Perhaps there is a problem with the link in the bonus offers section. I clicked the ad on the left side of the main page and had no problems.

Follow up: Thus far I am not pleased with customer support.
I got a reply that stated that I did not go through Wizard of Odds, so I was not entitled to that offer. I most definitely did go through Wizard of Odds, and in fact, that link lead to a Cherry Casino page which specifically has a place to click for the Wizard of Odds offer, which I used. I just informed them of this (again), and we shall see...

In any case, I do want to thank Homer for the info. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

This is my first bonus whoring attempt. Do I need to be good at blackjack to do this well? What's the easiest way? Anyone have tips?

Uston
07-17-2004, 02:38 PM
Being good at online blackjack involves playing perfect basic strategy, which is as simple as printing a chart from an online site and playing in accordance with said chart. Try the basic strategy engine on this site.

http://www.blackjackinfo.com/

Your only disadvantage is that you won't be able to play as quickly as someone who has basic strategy down cold.

jess72
07-17-2004, 02:41 PM
I've also wondered how good one needs to be to manually play to maximize profit or keep from busting. I assume a standard BJ chart would work fine if you don't play much. I only played 1 site manual and busted. I think I will try this one though.

Good Luck

07-17-2004, 02:49 PM
Thanks for the link. I have an idea about general strategy. And I'm assuming online they're not using 2 decks per se, correct? Isn't it an endless deck basically?

Also, I'm assuming that playing multiple hands is probably a good idea to clear the bonus much faster, correct? What do people usually do?

Last thing, is there a way to automatically play it? I know people have referred before to auto-play, I'm curious about that. I'm really a casino whore newb, I've only played poker online so far. /images/graemlins/blush.gif

Uston
07-17-2004, 02:58 PM
No, they'll be a finite number of decks. They just reshuffle after every hand. The number of decks as well as any other blackjack rules will be listed somewhere on the casino's website. Look it up and plus those figures into the search engine.

Yes, you can clear the bonus faster by playing multiple hands, although many sites won't allow it. I've always played one hand only.

Many sites have autoplay. This is not one of them. Check out http://www.bonuswhores.com/casino/ for general information about autoplay and specific information about a bunch of online casino bonuses.

Thanks for the info. I'm up $43 so far, about 1/3 the way through, although I just screwed up and didn't split JJ against the dealer's 4! /images/graemlins/blush.gif That was probably a strategy error, so I have some to learn still.

Boo ya! On my first official whoring run "out on my own" I suplemented my bank roll to the tune of 224 dollars profit in about two hours (my ISP sucks ass). Thank you very kindly for the heads up. I feel like a modern day Robin Hood. Stealing from the rich tyranical casino owners and giving to the poor (me). Everyone should try this one, if I can do it, anyone can. Oh, and one more thing. If you're new to whoring (i.e. you still think you should split jacks against anything) and you think you know how to play Blackjack because you watched Swingers once, I would recomend using the chart provided at wizardofodds.com under strategies for blackjack. Follow it religiously and enjoy your free money.

Just when it looked like everything had dried up, I got 75/75 bonues from both Lucky Nugget ($75 profit, should have signed up initially with pounds) and River Belle (up $110 thanks to pounds), as well as this bonus from the Cherry Casino. Maybe things are starting to look up?

Thanks Homer

Best run on blackjack whoring yet - started at $3 per hand, increasing to $5 after a while. Cashed out $685 after about 2 hours of play.

Great site.

Sheriff

Edit - just one word of warning. The software, unlike some other sites, doesn't offer an 'are you sure' check on some odd plays and accepts your first button press straight away. I managed to hit the wrong button a couple of times, including one time where I doubled down on 20!!

Why were you playing video poker? Wouldn't blackjack have the lowest house edge and the lowest risk of ruin?

BTW, my profits were $109 ($100 bonus + $9 profit playing blackjack.) My bankroll was under $100 at one point, but I guess I rallied nicely. I played 3 hands at a time, $2 wager per hand, and it took a little over an hour to hit the $2500 WR.

How long have cashouts taken to hit Neteller accounts? I initiated the cashout over 12 hours ago and have yet to see it.

Looking at the ad on Wizard of Odds, I can say from experience that Cherry Casino is reputable. They offer a monthly bonus of $30 on a $100 deposit with 15X bonus WR($750). They have a few sister sites, Casino Domain, Speedbet and a few others catering to non-Americans.

I have been whoring these sites since last November. Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose but they are trustworthy. They cashouts can vary from 1 hour to two days.

For those of you blaming Homer for your losses, well ....

Keep them coming Homer. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Deposit $100 . . as per Homer $ 2 X 3 seats . . . . 2 hours later (I'm slow) cash out $418

I did this on Saturday. Cashed out for $160, so it was at least some pure profit. Variance at BJ sucks /images/graemlins/smile.gif I got my cashout this morning (Monday), so I'm guessing the delay was due to the weekend.

These guys rocked IMHO. No autoplay, but the software was good, despite my accidently clicking on the wrong buttons a couple times (doubling on a 17 and getting a 2 to win /images/graemlins/smile.gif ). Turbo fast cashouts. Let's hope they offer some reloads because I'll be there.

Thanks Homer!!

I've never played blackjack or bonus whored, but I thought I'd give this a shot.

I was pretty resigned to losing my entire buy in when I went under a hundred bucks (ran through the bonus and went under my buy in) around a third of the way through. But I managed to clear fifteen bucks. Mostly just bopped around between 85 and 110 dollars the rest of the way, though I was as low as 76 and as high as 133 bucks.

So I was glad to clear the fifteen after that rocky start, even though my expected value apparently was about plus 90 bucks. It was kinda interesting, though a bit boring toward the end...I think I'll keep concentrating on poker...

I simply followed the strategy chart religiously (I messed up three times, which I figure isn't too bad for a newby). I played one hand at a time for two bucks (so it took a while /images/graemlins/smile.gif. Plus my old wheezy computer hung up 8 or 9 times during the process.

Is there any advantage or disadvantage besides speed to playing multiple hands at a time?

Oh, and for tax purposes, since all "profit" came from the bonus (I would think that technically I actually lost 85 bucks but got a hundred dollar bonus for playing)...is that a gambling win or other income? Pretty sweet if I can deduct the 85 dollar loss and put the income in other.

You ended up about 1.4 SD's below EV. This will happen a shade over 8% of the time. In other words, it is expected that 1 in 12 posters will respond complaining about losing $26 or more. People are too quick to blame losses on rigging.

EDIT - Note -- this assumes you bet $2/hand. If you bet more, such a result is even more likely.

Thinking about this a little more...

Suggesting that a casino is rigged after having a result like this is exactly the same as accusing a poker site of being rigged after somebody catches a gutshot draw on the river to suck out on you.

You seem to be pretty sharp, so I find it amusing that you didn't pay full attention to my post. I suggested that the casino could be rigged, but did not accuse it to be so. I even said it probably wasn't. I have no clue, and neither do you. They have everything to gain by tweaking their code a little, and we'd have no clue.

That being said, I either had some bad luck or the game is rigged. Concidering it's an online casino, I don't have much faith in their integrity. I decided they were reputable enough for me to put $100 into, so that says something.

Anyway, thanks for posting the info. No thanks for trying to be a jerk. Next time you might want to pay full attention to the posts you reply to.

You should be flattered that he bothered to respond at all to the garbage in your first post.

What you actually said was that the only reason you chose bad luck over a rigged game was the fact that others had reported wins. Even then, your 'maybe they changed the code' comment at the end told us you were reluctant to do so.

So, Homer is a jerk for pointing out to you some basic maths about the game? Rather than take cheap shots at one of the most valued posters on here why not try to understand some of what he's telling you - its obviously a knowledge gap for you at present.

I will.....I am 1 for 1. I made over 1000% on my investment (deposit at Luckey Nugget). I had car problems that I used the profits on, otherwise I could have run the table on all those casinos BEFORE they got wise and change the run through requirements.

Anyone who posts "thanks for making me lose my money" type posts......are just ignorant.

07-20-2004, 05:21 PM
Personally I hoovered around $200 (deposit+bonus) for a while, felt ecstatic when I passed the $300 mark, and hated the whole world, when I ended up at a total of $82. However I'm still convinced that the dealr had more BJ's with his 1 hand than I did with 3 times as many hands /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Anyway, I don't blame the system of being rigged, i'm just interested in knowing the chance/risc that this result happens?

HC5831
07-20-2004, 06:06 PM
Let's examine my post shall we? I said that is was probably bad luck. I then posted that I played Monday night which was after the majority of the money won posts were made. Therefore, can you not see that I suggested a code change was possible by Cherry Casino after the weekend? hmmm, not too far of a stretch I think.

In additon, I read a post of a player saying that a site had video poker in which the player had an advantage by playing optimally. Then they said the code was changed the problem corrected. Yes, very similar to my posting. hmmm....

The only garbage post here was yours. I posted a date and time of my play. Which helps establish time frames, and possible code changes.

Homer's post was valid about the math. His crack about people complaining about rigged games was unfounded. He didn't pay full attention to my post, and neither did you. Nobody would expect every BJ player who took advantage of the bonus to make money, the house always has an edge, even if you play optimally. My post was just to ensure others keep their eyes open and don't think it's all easy money.

I find it very amusing when people like you go off for no reason. If Homer can't take a little criticism, he shouldn't be trying to dish it out. That goes for you too.

You seem to be pretty sharp, so I find it amusing that you didn't pay full attention to my post. I suggested that the casino could be rigged, but did not accuse it to be so. I even said it probably wasn't. I have no clue, and neither do you. They have everything to gain by tweaking their code a little, and we'd have no clue.

That being said, I either had some bad luck or the game is rigged. Concidering it's an online casino, I don't have much faith in their integrity. I decided they were reputable enough for me to put $100 into, so that says something.

Anyway, thanks for posting the info. No thanks for trying to be a jerk. Next time you might want to pay full attention to the posts you reply to.

I wasn't being a jerk. I was trying to show that mentioning rigging twice in a single paragraph after essentially getting sucked out on by a gutshot straight draw was a bit ridiculous. Take care and good luck.

His crack about people complaining about rigged games was unfounded.

It wasn't a crack. You mentioned the possibility that the site was rigged twice a single paragraph. I was attempting to point out, using math, that you were a bit too rash in considering such a thing.

Just wanted to add that just cause this guy is rude does not mean he is not right, has anyone done the bonus since monday?

My girlfriend is doing one right now and the play is totally different than when I did mine. Tons of 20's and 21's for the dealer.

Oh well between hers and mine we will still be up $40.

I played saturday. Cashed out at an even $200, hanging onto the bonus... Although I don't really play correctly, I'm too much a gambler. Got as low as $25. Thanks for the tip Homer.

I did it on Saturday and cashed out 575$. As I mentioned I got a run of cards that I had never seen...playing one handed, 3 BJ´s in a row....catching 20-21 from 13-15....amazing!

My wife did it yesterday and cashed out 550$, with a more "normal" sequence of cards.

I would like to know Homer's opinion, as an expert, but in the few casinos I have whored it looks to me as if the fluctuations are huge. I mean you can go for 15 minutes catching everything and then there are times that no matter what you get, you get beat.

I've done it yesterday and ended up $20. A few thigs to note. Approximately every 6th hand for the dealer was an ace. The ride would be very streaky. I would win 5 out of 6 hands, then lose 6 out of the next 7 hands.

You just have to look at the risk of ruin charts on Homers site and other places to see that some people will bust out, this increases for every $ you bet, I was down to $80 at one point with $1,000 playthrough to go, I decided to ramp it up to $10 rather than watch my last cash drain away, got a nice run of cards and came out with a profit.

I got a reload on Captain casino the other week and ended up losing the full $300 bonus, but having done others I am still well up casinowise than having not done it.

Is it best to quit after losing the bonus, or should one keep going using their deposit to try to catch up? Seems like the former makes more sense (although it isn't what I did on my way to busting).

Assuming the house has an edge, you're better off quitting.

(just guessing, as I do not know much about blackjack)

You can't just quit after losing the bonus at most casinos. Otherwise they'd be losing alot more $. You have to clear the WR before any withdrawal is allowed.

I misunderstood the question - I thought the WR had been cleared already.

What I know about "whoring" is what I read in this thread, that's all. Bare with me if this is all fundamental for you guys.

1. What does "WR" stand for? It's not in the Abbreviations list.

2. Can I get this bonus using my credit card for a deposit, or do I have to use the "Netteller" that everyone mentions?

3. Is this still working? I see no mention of it on the Cherry Casino site. I entered the site via the "/?from=wizodds" link and then registered. Is that all I needed to do, enter via that link, resgister,. then deposit money?

Thanks,

Ten

1. WR= Wagering requirement, ie, amount you need to wager, in order to be able to cash out the bonus $$$.

2. Everyone mentions Neteller as it is the most common way of moving $$$ around gambling sites. Do a search for Neteller in this site, and you will find plenty of information. Read the terms and conditions at the casino to see if you can use a credit card.

3. Just checked Wizard of Odds and it's still there. So it should work. Bonus appears inmediately in your account after you deposit.

Good luck!!!

I went through the link on Wizard of Odds and didn't get the %100 match (I'll have to act quicker next time). I e-mailed support and they said it was't valid any longer. I withdrew my money without playing.

Just a FYI for those who have yet to whore here.

Thanks anyway Homer....keep us in the loop for any more you come across.

Yeh, I'd be VERY interested to know if anyone has beat this casino since Monday evening. I did it on the weekend and did well but my wife tried it yesterday (she had signed up last friday) and the cards were BRUTAL to say the least.

I do not want to even consider that they can alter the code, but . . . .

Believe me, they didn't just throw the switch and rig the cards. That would be extremely stupid on their part. The casinos have an edge, you can't win everytime, even with a bonus. I've done 50 casinos or so and have busted out in 5 of them. It happens.

Looks like Gaby is right. Just checked (7AM PST) and the bonus on wizardofodds.com is now only 30% and 25x WR. Being abroad with limited internet access has really hampered my poker and bonus claims. In my first 2 weeks of being abroad I have missed $200 in bonuses!!
