Probably a sticky wacko.

I made quite a bit, five figures. Just managed to do all Belle Rock ones before they killed off the sweet bonuses. I didn't overdo it though. In the end I think I did around 50 casinos.

I stayed away from pretty much all RTG, Playtech, Boss etc casinos. They have ok bonuses but often it's a hassle to get paid, and sometimes it's a complete waste of time since they cancel the bonus if you win and just return your deposit.

I did put in a bit of time reading forums to know what casinos gave people trouble and which ones didn't. Got paid every time. A few times it took a bit of work and time.

Single biggest win including bonus: 850£
Single biggest loss: 1000$

From what I understand it is much less attractive to do a lot of these casinos now. They have stricter terms. Perhaps 2+2 is partly responsible for that.

I played every casino bonus i could find since June [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]. Also got lucky a few times when I had to play slots or other games to clear the bonus. I won $4K hitting a straight flush playing let it ride at $5 bets. Good thing I didn't read the terms of that bonus closely before depositing [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].

I think that overall I did better than expectation, but the majority of the money I collected was the bonuses. There were just soooo many good ones out there, if you're willing to withstand the variance of sticky bonuses.

Also, I didn't grind out the bonuses with $1 bets. It just takes way too long, and larger bets only increase the variance, while EV stays the same. I'd bet $10 or $25 a hand on blackjack, depending on the wr of the bonus.

Using bonuswhores, casinoexploits, obg but mostly Casinomeister... I was able to make about $15,000 this year.

It's good.

Question Moondogg?
 
I had posted this in earlier thread but received no helpful replies. Perhaps you can tell me what I did wrong:


"I have already cleared my bonus (at Caribbean Sun) in the poker room. ....I'm talking casino bonus.
I did download the casino software, activated my account and played BJ.

I thought the WR was 25X bonus amount($50 X 25 = $1,250), so I played BJ, kept accurate count and at $5 per hand, I wagered $1,300. But my account still does not show the $50
moved to my balance I can withdraw. I noticed after I had completed playing BJ that the table had a $10 limit, yet it allowed me to play $5 per hand.

Perhaps because I did not play $10 per hand, none of the wagers I made count toward clearing the casino bonus? Anyone able to clear this up for me?

moondogg 01-07-2005 11:49 AM

Re: Question Moondogg?
 
Did you have a backlog of bonus money from previous months?

I have cleared this bonus in the past flat-betting $5 a hand, so that should be fine.

Additionally, they have stopped this bonus on new monthly deposits, but I think you should be able to clear backlogged bonuses. However, I busted trying to clear mine from a month or two ago, so I don't know if they will actually award it.

Have you emailed them asking about it (or called)?

stir 01-07-2005 12:03 PM

Re: Question Moondogg?
 
No, this was my first month (and intital deposit) at CS poker, so I had no backlog.

I don't understand your comment that they have stopped this bonus on new monthly deposits, because my account showed the additional $50 in the balance column (but not the withdrawal column) as soon as I started playing in the poker room, and it was my first deposit.

Also when I started playing BJ in the casino my balance to play with showed as the full amount which included the $50.

I had not called or emailed yet because I have read so many 2+2 comments about crypto taking days to reply to emails and/or waiting on the phone for long periods trying to get someone halfway intelligent to help you out.

Do you think is it possible they have changed the WR to something higher, like 40??

moondogg 01-07-2005 12:14 PM

Re: Question Moondogg?
 
Oh, this was the initial signup bonus. I was talking about the recurring monthly bonus, which they recently stopped.

Just saw this on their promotions page:

*You must wager 40X the amount received before deposit bonus is eligible for withdrawal. (Eg. receive $30 free, wager $1200)

Thanks much for your replies. I just need to go complete the 40X

I made around 8K in Casino (blackJack whoring) in 2004.

That was only for two months work as I started in beginning of November.

The figure include Bonuses + Net Winnings.

I've almost ran out of worthwhile sign up bonuses as most casino do not allow BlackJack to clear the wagering requiremnts.
