I'm reasonably sure Fraubump has it right: those of us who had been doing both the casino bonus and the poker bonus will net $50 less in bonus per month now. Technically what happened is the $50 bonus for 300 poker hands played went away. The casino deposit bonus is still there, but we now have the option to clear that through poker if we prefer.

This is my interpretation, and the pretty obvious interpretation IMHO.

It seems right.

But I'm having some problems with this sentence from the mail: From the mail: "For example a $50 deposit will get a $50 bonus, and you will have to wager 250 raked hands in the poker room before you can withdraw the bonus or play it."

I think the "you will have to wager...." means we have gotten a tougher bonus to clear.

Hope I'm wrong, but I dont like the info in the mail at all.

I think that they just have slightly different language than the normal poker terms. I doubt they would change it from raked hands to actually having to wager in the hand. That would be an extreme change.

Agreed. That's probably just carryover from the casino terminology. If for no other reason than that it would require coding changes in how hands are tallied up, I doubt they'd be doing that.

Does this mean no more monthly casino bonus?

In the email I got it said this at the bottom:
Please note we will no longer be running the $50 for 300 hands promotion

his asking about the $100 casino match bonus, not the poker bonus

This seems like bad news since Intercasino has been my cash cow.

But I think I see the way to adjust.

I think so, but it appears as though we must make a deposit every month....so the bonus is really only 89 bucks if you cash out every month!

What, do they charge a $1 to cash out?

werd.

i have cleared the casino bonuse every month and alot of times with +$100 profits

i just wanted to pint out that unless you are a horrible poker player, this bonus has about the same ev as before. i would say that an avg of $50 profit from playing 450 raked hands is very reasonable, especially considering that their lowest level is 1/2 limit or .5/1 nl. oh yeah, and there are some crazy fish there.
