I last night did lucky nugget, finished at 100$ after the wagering requirements meaning a profit of 50$. All i did was put it on autoplay to do the required hands and come back. Captain Cook's I finished at $200 dollars only up a 100$. This bonus whoring isn't as effective as I thought.

You had a bit of bad luck and that kinda blows, but on the upside you doubled your money and didn't have to do a whole lot for it.

So you made $150 for not a lot of effort and that is not effective? A win is a win at the end of the day.

I had the same luck as you at lucky nugget, and I actually busted at Captain Cooks. I kicked ass at river belle though, won $470. Try it there. Hope you had the same luck I did.

I'm having a similar experience with casino whoring. I'm sure there are thousands to be made, but there is more effort than immediately apparent. The easy part is downloading and registering, and autoplaying BJ is simple, but if you try to cover, prevent the site from labelling you a promotion abuser, you gotta take some time and extra risk and play some of their stupid casino games. My brain wants to yank itself outta my head when I'm playing virtual slot machines.

I was looking for a way to supplement my poker income. But anything I make at casino whoring isnt worth the time, effort, and risk (who knows when one of these off-shore casinos is gonna say "screw you" and abscond with your money). After I'm done whoring at the sites I'm already committed to, I'm done with the whole thing. Nothing but poker for me, and good old-fashioned bonus whoring.

Give me a break. You made $150 while barely lifting a finger.

You did experience some negative variance, but still, I don't see what you are complaining about.

You're missing out unless you make an assload of money per hour playing poker, which you said before that you do...so, nevermind.

I think the problem is that people think that it is 100 percent certain that you will win all sorts of money. Theoretically, you could lose every single hand, because each hand is independent from all others, especially with online blackjack. The statistics used are meant to show how the numbers are SUPPOSED to fall after a large number of hands are played.

Like I said, I went bust at captain cook's, but I was not discouraged because I realized that this is still gambling, and that the PROBABILITY of this happening again is not good. Even though you may not win big at every casino, if you hit enough of them you should make a good amount of money.

Just wait until you lose your deposit and bonus at some of these places.

It can and will happen even betting $1-$2 per hand.
