Here’s what to do:

Simply deposit at least $50 during event hours and we will add a 10% bonus (up to $200) to your Bankroll!
That’s it! No fishing expeditions required!
And don’t forget, you can also compete in the Santa ‘Claws’ Christmas Crab Race on December 30 to ‘double up’ on your good luck!

Simple Rules: To qualify for this event you must Deposit at least $50 during event hours.
In order to Cash-Out this Bonus, an amount totaling no less than fifty (50) times the Bonus amount must be wagered.
Reverse Cash Outs will not qualify as Deposits for this event. Please note this race takes place at the same time as the final leg of the Santa ‘Claws’ Christmas Crab Race series."


$2000 deposit, $200 bonus, $10000 play thru.

$10,000 seems like an awful lot.

You have to deposit 2k of your own money to get the max bonus of $200 then wager the bonus amount times 50= $10,000 in wagers before you can cash it out. Does it seem worth doing to you?

Yes, its profitable.

200$ bonus. 10,000$ of playtrhough x edge of .5% for blackjack gives you a +EV of 150$.

If time is an issue then bet 10 - 25$ a hand, if bankroll is an issue then bet $1 a hand.

There are much better casino bonuses than this with 20x wagering (and less) requirements. I suggest doing them first.

i have already whored all the other ones.

why wouldn't i do this reload? this is what bonus whores do. this is what we wait for. oppurtunities like this don't come along everyday. and now that i think about it, $10000 play thru isn't even that bad anyways. i just play how i normally do, 2$ bets at 3 hands at a time, time fly's when im blackjack whoring.

I didnt say it was bad. Just there was better bonuses which smaller wagering requirements. If you've already done them then go for your life. Good luck!

Just finished up the CON bonus... made an extra $48 on top of the $200 bonus! /images/graemlins/grin.gif Not great, but better than the goal of break even!

I've played more than the requirement (about 10% more), as I've heard about people being banned. Any one have a good rule of thumb to use? Guess I should check out the CW forums as well.

well fuk. i had to go to casino morongo today so i wasn't able to be at home to do the deposit. so i showed my brother how to do it and told him to deposit between 8pm and 10pm. i call him at like 8:15pm and told him to do it. and he says it gives some error message saying unable to process. i think its because i still have a withdraw there that hasn't hit my firepay account yet.

so im still calm and collected and was like its cool i can still do the reef club one. so i told him to try and deposit for reef club which is like the exact same procedure. turns out the max fuking deposit i can make is $1000. so im like fuk this bonus isn't worth it.

so i just missed out on $200, sigh

The one at CON is over. There was a 2 hour window to make the deposit (20:00 - 22:00 CONT, which is EST + 1 hour). The 20x play through was more than enough for me. Played most of the time on the negative side. Don't think I could handle a 50x play through.
