Default InterCasino Blackjack

Some questions for those of you who work off the monthly bonus playing blackjack.

1) Do the bonuses stack? If I deposit $100 in January and $100, can I clear both bonuses next month?
2) Do I need to transfer money from my poker bankroll over to a casino bankroll, or is it commingled?
3) I have heard that these bonuses are risk free? Is that true? I know you can't withdrawal the bonus money right away...but do you get the bonus money right away and play with that first?

Thanks!

Historically, yes. This may change at some point in the future, though. If you need to carry it over because you don't have the time one month that's fine, but I would not make a habit of backlogging several months of bonuses.

It's all one account, commingled so to speak

You can withdraw your own money at any point without losing the bonus. Also, uou can use the bonus money in the casino but not in the poker room. So, if you play blackjack instead of poker to clear the bonus, it is risk-free.

EDIT: VERY IMPORTANT - If you go bust in the casino (which will happen often), your incomplete wagering requirement will carry over to the next month, and you will have to clear this regardless of whether you are playing poker or blackjack. Basically, by using BJ to clear the bonus, you are in some ways making a commitment to never do poker bonuses again.

Great, thank you! Just one follow-up question regarding #3. So to make it risk free, you play until you are down $90. Then you stop, and wait until next month where you can hopefully clear both w/o going broke, correct?

No, that isn't risk free. I believe if you do this, you start losing your own money first. Until you clear the bonus, they will only let you withdraw $90 less that your total balance, so if start with a total of $180 (deposit+bonus) and you lost $90, then your total is $90 but your withdrawable balance is $0.

Deposit $90, have the $90 show up in your bonus account, and withdraw your original $90. Play with the remaining $90 of bonus money until you go broke or clear the WR.

Thanks for the info. I'm going to give the BJ a try next month. I've always got the other Crypto bonuses to work with but it'll be fun for a change to play some blackjack and clear a bonus.

Ideally, I will come home tanked at 3 am and play, just like I do when I play BJ in Vegas.

Ohh I wasn't going to try and withdrawal. I was just going to wait and reload the next month, and clear the WR with the bonus money again. That should work, I would think.

That said, I like your method. I'll know for sure everything is working.

My only concern would be is that it was obvious what I was doing. Any possibility of being banned? If I left my money in there I could play a little poker too as some cover play.

Thanks
