bet365 casino
 
Has anyone done this? If I transfer $100 there and play war $5 at a time until I reach $1000 bet I would get $100 bonus? Isn't this +EV? Thanks.

why would you play WAR to clear the bonus?

thought it was closes to 50/50 odds which would give me the best chance to not lose my money. What would be the best way to do it?

Play something that gives you better than 50/50.

Like poker.

war in a casino format is not breakeven. this is because when you go to war and win, you only win 1 bet, but if you lose, the dealer takes both bets (there is a bonus for a double tie but it is not enough to offset the edge).

blackjack is the game with the lowest overall player disadvantage to the house. get a basic strategy chart online and follow it exactly to ensure minimum loss while clearing the bonus.

i do play poker, but this is their casino bonus. I am trying to find out the best way to get their 100% bonus without losing my money. You have to play 10x the amount. I thought if I transferred $100 and played something for $1000 it would be an easy bonus to get. Maybe I'm wrong.

Thanks. I do know the basic strategy on blackjack, but it seems like I could lose my money quicker there than war. Not sure why I feel that way. War just seems more breakeven than BJ, but you are probably right.

Since the bonus is 100% for up to $200, I'd wait until you can afford the $200. No sense giving up free money.

Odds regarding war can be found here. BJ is a much better deal.

Re: bet365 casino
 
If i deposit $200 how much should I bet each hand?

I'm not an expert, but I'd say $1 or $2. Allow our casinowhores to advise you better, though. You can find optimal strategy for playing BJ at Casino 365 here.

The house edge on Casino War is significantly higher than its edge on BJ.

HA in war is 2.88%. Play BJ switch if they allow it, if not, play BJ surrender or regular BJ.

Thanks. I think i will give it a try.

Does anyone know approximately how long it would take to clear the 4,000 wager requirement at Casino 365 playing BJ?

Re: bet365 casino
 
Don't play BJ switch, noob (no offense).

The extra .57% ($5.7) is not worth the hassle if you are not familiar with the game.

Play regular BJ and your hourly rate will be much higher.

That being said, BJ switch is a perfect game for Golden Palace/Grand Online.

I played switch for 3 hours and came out exactly even. I like that I can play 2 hands at once. I think I know what I am doing, but will look into it more. Or if you have any advice I would appreciate it. I wish I could play more than one hand at BJ then I would, but I am clearing the bonus twice as fast this way I feel. Thanks for everyone's help so far.

Has anyone ever played BJ there and won?

MrMon 12-29-2005 04:28 PM

Re: bet365 casino
 
At Bet365? Yeah, made almost $200 on top of the bonus. Had a great run, $2 bets. Perhaps the best I've ever run at BJ.

I won a bunch. But why does it matter?

Re: bet365 casino
 
Because i have played about 2000 hands of BJ and BJ switch and i am still looking for a run of some sort. It just keeps eating away at my bankroll. No matter what hand I get. You would think some sort of run would be coming, but maybe that's just BJ. At least on party poker i got up sometimes.

noddyholder 12-29-2005 09:55 PM

Re: bet365 casino thanks
 
Thanks for everyone's help. I made $20 while gettting the $200 bonus after being down as much as $85. I made all $1 bets mostly on BJ switch. Thanks again.
