MOFO meets Interpoker monthly bonus:

[Baulucky]

Lately, it has been painfully slow to play the cryptos. So, my alter-ego MOFO told me: If I'm going to endure this, I want to be paid double, at least.

So, to comply with MOFO, I went to the casino and bet it all ($90) on 1 hand of Blackjack and won $180, then I bet $180 on another hand of BJ and got a Blackjack!. My bonus account was then $450, then I proceeded to logout and started to play poker. After 450 raked hands, I got my poker winnings + $450 bonus.

MOFO was very happy, because he got paid 5 times his normal wage.

Betting it all twice in a row? Why not 5 times?

See it all the time at the casino.

I just wanted to double or more MOFO's poker bonus clearing wage, not take an extremely long shot.

If you had lost, most of the wagering requirement would have still been there waiting for you to play off next month. Just hope you don't ever get too far behind.

For poker too?. i.e.: 900 hands instead of 450?.

Yes. The wager requirement is 25x. If you bet $90 and lose, you have wagered 4% of the requirement, you still owe 96% (432 hands of poker), so if you just played poker the next month it would take 882 raked hands to clear both months (with only the second month's bonus left to collect). Congrats on dodging the bullet. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

El Barto is indeed correct. When they first switched over to this system I owed about 1500 hands of poker. This was not pleasant to complete.

OTOH, if you showed some gamble and actually bet your entire balance ($180) and not just the bonus, then you will not have to make up wagering in the future if you lose. The stacked up wagering from past months is only for wimps who aren't willing to take a shot with their own cash.

I must be missing something here.

You deposit $90, get the $90 bonus, and your WR is now 2250 or something like that.

So you wager $180 on one hand, lose, you now have a WR of 2070 carried over to the next month. How is that good?

I didn't think that losing all of your own money reset the WR.

You are dreaming. They won't cancel your wagering requirement. If you want any future bonuses, you will have to satisfy your current wagering requirement first.
