Intercasino Bonus (rant, no content)

I ran my $90 + $90 up to $400 and then lost 18 straight bets on Pontoon. I am pissed. Flush that money down the drain... Has anyone else had similiar experiences with Intercasino.com?

no, but I'm in the "play 2/4 6 max rather than casino" camp.

people seem to hate this bonus for poker, but as long as you play 2/4, its great.

Pontoon is a high variance game. That's why u went up to $400 in a rush and why you blew it in a rush. If the casino is rigged it's in my favour, I'm yet to lose on the casino monthly!

Its the nature of the beast.
Ive experienced bad runs like that with pontoon on many more casinos than just Intercasino.

I'm not claiming it's rigged, I was just making the observation that that's alot of hands to lose in a row in a blackjack type of game. On a side note this is the first Pontoon bonus I have done and it sucks that ties lose. Every time we tie I think "nice, push" but no... Dealer wins. I'll just have to give it another shot in a few days.

I don't hate the bonus for poker...but I can clear it faster in the casino. So in months where I have a lot of time and can play it at poker, that's what I do. In months where I don't have a lot of time, I clear the bonus in the casino.

Works out well having both options...but I would prefer they brought back the separate bonuses!

There are just too many poker bonuses to clear that a little Pontoon/BJ action is a good change of pace.

How much are you wagering if you went bust in 18 hands?

Well 180/18 is 10. So he most likely was betting 10 bucks a hand, maybe 7 or 8 with doubles/buy bets. But since the OP said he lost 18 straight bets, that would be $10/bet.

That would work...except that he had run his balance up to $400 before the run...

He said he ran it up to $400 so by my calculations he would have to be betting 20 or 25. You better expect to go broke a few times betting that much.

Ouch, I did forget about the 400. Thats what I get for drinking some beers today! lol

so 400/18 then, hehe.

Hey Happy Birthday Photoc! See if you can get any cash from sites for it.

[Photoc]

Thanks bro. Not one site that I have so far had a birthday reload except for Be The Dealer (libra reload) up to like 28% or or something.

Interpoker gives a bithday bonus ~ $10 I think...
