Carribean Sun and Sands Carribean the same?

[Bytestream]

I recently tried out Interpoker and got the Intercasino deposit bonus. Are there other Crypto poker rooms with casino matches as well?

I looked at the Carribean Sun Poker rooms webpage but there was no mention about a match at Sands of Carribean. Not even sure they are related.

Thanks.

Yes, if you deposit via caribbean sun or sun poker, www.sunpoker.com, you will get a match at Sands of the Caribbean casino, www.carsands.com

Thanks, that was quick. Can you sign up at both SunPoker and Carribean Sun?

Looks they both have the same $40 after 250 hands, but I can't find the maximun deposit match. Know what that is?

I assume they both allow US players, I read there are 1 or 2 that don't...

yes, they both allow American players.

SunPoker and CaribbeanSun are the exact same site and it does allow US players.

Like Stew said, you can't sign up at both, because they are exactly the same site.

Cool, thanks.

So InterPoker and CarribeanSun are the only Crypto sites with casino matches?

Also one last question, does anyone know if they are not going to keep giving this bonus each month? I saw this on the sandscar website:

Is this going to be the last month?

[Thythe]

I doubt it will be the last month. I've been doing it since September of 03. William Hill and Totalbet are also two poker rooms that have casino matches that use the same software as ICP. They are the Cryptologic skins. PokerPlex is another one but they only have a poker room. You will find a lot of information about the various bonuses at www.bonuswhores.com (note that I have no affiliation with them whatsoever).

UKBetting is another crypto with monthly bonuses. It appears to have the same ownership as TotalBet, but you can have an account at each. As with TotalBet, players from the US (and apparently some other countries too) are allowed in the poker room but not in the casino. Also like with TotalBet, the account is maintained in pounds.
