Am i reading this right, Its any pot $1 or over counts toward the bonus once again?

Did you get an email or something for October?

I will not play there until they fix their system. At the minimum they should give 1/2 point for pots raked at 50 or 75 cents, 1/4 point is too little for those pots.

It should be:
1/4 point for 25 cent raked pot
1/2 point for 50 cent raked pot
1/2 point for 75 cent raked pot
1 point for $1 raked pot

I already received the October email and it said 100% matching up to $90, see the website for details (i.e. what consititues a raked hand).

I went to their website but they didn't have the raked hand info up for October yet - the details were still for the September promo. And no, it is not that the details are necessarily the same this month (though they could be), it very clearly states September on the website.

I'm going to check it again tomorrow and see if they've updated it.

Of course, all of this is moot since I intend to play Pontoon at InterCasino (their October bonus details are not up yet either).

I don't know but right now I'm clearing there September bonus and it's still only giving me 1/4 point less than $1 rake. I think it's not that bad at $2/4 6 max though.

I have been clearing this playing blackjack for several months. Where can I find information on how to play pontoon? I search on pontoon yielded hundreds of posts and none of them explained the game.

And my 2 cents - why would anyone clear this playing poker? I can clear it playing blackjack in less than two hours. $2 bets if my bonus stack is under $100, $5 bets from $100 - $200 and $10 bets if over $200.

I didn't know you could clear it with BJ.

Yes, blackjack works for InterPoker, Will Hill and LittleWoods at least.

Thanks, I tried to finish clearing with BJ. Had a bad run and still have about $400 or so before I can clear it but ran out of my bonus $$$. Will it carry over to next month so I can try to clear both months bonuses?

It carrys over and stacks.

Side note.
Although not the smartest idea, but it helped me this month a little (I was bored), you can always bet on both red AND black on euro roulette.

I have tried this only when I am up a good amount and semi-close to clearing my bonus (that I usually do on pontoon)
It definantly is a way to rapidly increase your wagering.
Granted you will lose by hitting a green zero about 2.5% of the time, but it is a an alternative...

Does this mean that if you deposite, don't play at all, wait till next month, you can clear both bonii simultaniously?

Your wager requirement stacks as well...so if you do this, once you play the WR for the first bonus, it should be released. Then you have to play the WR for the second bonus to get it released.

How do you guys keep track of your wagering amounts? Is there a counter on their site?

I typically just keep track by hand.

At the typical casino, I will bet 10 units/deal (so with Cryptos, that is normally 5 hands of 2 units each)...sometimes I increase this, but usually this gives me a decent balance between ROR and time required. I mentally keep track of how many deals I have had plus the number of splits/doubles I made. Every 10 deals, I write down what I have wagered so far.

Alternatively, with InterCasino you can look in the Cashier at the "My Promotions" tab to see what % of the bonus you have cleared. But you have to leave the table to get to the Cashier, so I find it a lot better to just keep track while I am playing.

That's really stupid.

Most casinos prohibit this in their terms and conditions. I haven't checked with InterCasino, but betting on both red and black stands out to casinos as something no actual gambler would do. It makes it very easy for a casino to identify you as undesirable, then bar you from receiving future bonuses or remove past bonuses and/or winnings from your account.

Let me repeat: Betting on red and black is a really bad idea.

Go to Other Games, then Log Viewer. Occasionally this gets messed up and you have to call CS (especially if you play more than two casino's simultaniously).
