i'm afraid to whore casinos

[DrunkHamster]

OK, fair enough, I didn't realise. The ones I have done from there have all been OK, but I've only done some of the first page. Any ideas for a better site?

Oh, and nice album BTW, although WYWH is better.

Like most people have said, make sure to read the t&c carefully at all casinos, they change often.

Its not risk free, but with a little luck you can make a nice profit. I suggest only doing the ones with low deposits for 100% or 200% bonuses first. Less risk involved this way. Read the casino forum on bonus whores.

Yes I am running good.

"risk free" may be too strong a term, however, if you play blackjack and pontoon (on sites that allow them) by a reasonable set of standards yout chance of not making a profit is extremely low, and your chance of going bust even smaller.

Thanks, those forums are great. I can't find the archives however - is it just me being stupid?

He means the old threads that are a few pages deep (unless I'm really missing something). It's time well spent if you're interested in it. Be sure to double check all info with the sites' T&C's, of course.

This is very good advice.

Some of the games you'll need to play have a high amount of variance (like video poker).Even though these games have a low house advantage, the high variance can take a huge chunk out of a small roll very quickly.

Also, several casinos are much slower with cashout than poker rooms are. It is very common to get cash back to Neteller from a poker site in 24-48 hours. It is also very come for online casinos to take 7-21 days (or longer) to send your cashout to Neteller. They'll drag out the process by asking for a copy of you ID, utility bills, bank statements, etc.

This kind of delay is horrible for a small roll, because it'll keep a large portion of the roll inactive for a long time. We all know that an inactive roll can't grow.

Serveral months ago, I had a very small bankroll, most of which was tied up waiting for a casino to process my cashout. The process took so long that I missed out on being able to deposit for a a Party reload. This delay cost me a change to help build my roll with an easy Party bonus.

I've lost over $2k at a time. I've had a $5k cashout in 'pending' status for 6 weeks. It's far from risk-free, and the bonus you start with (starluck, planetluck, and Casino on Net) are far from representative of the rest of bonus whoring. I'm not saying you shouldn't do it, but I am saying you shouldn't get into it with false expectations.

If you can't afford to lose the money, don't do it.

Wait til variance decides to bitch slap you. Casinos are anything BUT risk free.
