a friend of mine got 5$ put in his account at planet luck last night. he worked it up to 100 in blackjack, and then put it all on black :). he cashed out 195$.

I get that $5 free, about biweekly from either Starluck (2 accounts), Planetluck, CasinoOnNet, or Reef. The best I ever did with that $5 is turn it into $60. The last few times though I"ve been 5 and out first hand. :(

I did it again :D

Bought in for $50 at alljackpots.com, cashed out for $624. Here are the two big screenshots. 5 ships in the first one and 5 airplanes in the second one (the major millions symbol is wild). Played $3/spin for $5000 worth of bets.

scorcho, you've got to be the luckiest bastard in the world!

now, given the house edge in slots and the playthrough requirement, do we have a +EV with the 300% match bonus on 50$?

El Scorcho
02-09-05, 12:46 PM
Independent auditors (PriceWaterHouseCooper) have verified the slots paying out 96.32% on alljackpots.com (probably similar for other microgaming sites too):

http://www.alljackpots.com/themes/alljackpots/images/pwc/12-2004.gif

This means that after $5000 of bets, you'll have lost $184.

However, don't be fooled by slot percentages (and video poker percentages), which get heavily skewed by the royal flushes and the high slot jackpot outliers. For every $1000 royal flush or slot hit, there are $1036.80 worth of losses to go with it to make up the 96.32% overall payout.

Either way, I got lucky with the 300% match bonus on one site and 400% match bonus on the other site. For a $50 shot at it, why not try it?

Keep in mind, though, that I watched my bankroll last night drop from $1050 all the way down to $450 in about an hour. Finally finished at $624 after WR was met.

Man, Scorch, you're really running with this bonus whoring thing! Slots! ;)

El Scorcho
02-09-05, 12:52 PM
Hey when someone wants to throw $150 or $200 to play some slots, I'm gonna do it. :D Especially when the slots have an autoplay feature that can run while I'm eating dinner, watching TV, etc. :)

El Scorcho
02-09-05, 12:56 PM
Oh yeah, and just like the other night -- the only way you're going to win on these things is to hit some semi-major pulls to keep you going so you can meet the WR.

The first night when I cashed out for $733, I hit a couple pulls for $400, and a couple more for $100-150.

Last night, I hit a $500 pull, a $360 pull, a $150 pull, and a $300 pull.

If you're not hitting a big pull every few hundred spins, you won't come out ahead.

El Scorcho
02-09-05, 01:24 PM
Up next after I get my 2 withdrawls in my bank account:

Lucky Nugget Casino -- $50 D + $200 B, $5000 WR

El Scorcho
02-11-05, 01:09 PM
FWIW, the sites are legit. $1350 showed up in my bank account within 36 hours of withdrawl request.

Hey El Scorcho,

Maybe you could help some of us out by summarizing some of the better bonuses out there? The Reef and CoN ones have been around for quite a while, and I've done those ones... which others would you recommend?

Most recently, you noted:
Dragon Palace: http://casinomeister.com/cgi-bin/adcycle1.15/adclick.cgi?gid=6&cid=5&mid=6&id=246 (for a 300% bonus, your referral ID being 'DPC275')
Spin Palace: general bonus (400% bonus, your referral ID being ??)

Did I get anything mixed up (ie. your referral names)? Any other ones you would recommend doing first? Thanks!

actyper
02-14-05, 10:41 AM
Dragon Palace is a no-no. They've instituted a 30-day hold period on withdrawals. Plus they don't even have a withdrawal button, you must email then to get it put through.

Starluck/Planetluck if you haven't done those yet, those are for sure. Inter/Will Hill are prob the next best ones.

For sticky bonuses, Golden Palace is the best one.

mgbfan
02-14-05, 06:47 PM
Ditto what actyper said. The no-brainers are CoN, Planetluck, Starluck, and Intercasino. Make sure someone refers you for Planet and Star, since you get an extra $25 bonus if you're referred by someone.

02-16-05, 03:51 PM
in the next 24 - 48 hours, I plan on playing at some of these casinos somewhere, but I am looking for the best one. If I need a referral to get bonus $$, please someone refer me.

I read through this entire thread, are the bonuses from page 1 still active? Which casinos are the most user friendly as far as the software interface?

If someone wouldnt mind pointing me to a site or two, it would be appreciated.

Thanks

As far as blackjack casino whoring, here is what I have done/planned:

Completed:
1) Starluck
2) Planetluck
3) Reef Club

Planned:
1) Casino on Net
2) Will Hill
3) Intercasino

El Scorcho, can you comment on others that are must do's?

-Matt

El Scorcho
02-16-05, 04:20 PM
Those are the major ones. Everything else is pretty standard -- 100 or 200% bonus but with insane (20, 25, 30x) blackjack wager requirements.

actyper
02-16-05, 04:32 PM
You forgot InterCasino. If you're going to do Will Hill, might as well do this one as well.

I didn't receive any referrals from CoN yesterday. still pacing...

actyper
02-17-05, 02:21 PM
Most of the time those CON refer a friend emails don't go through properly. They say check your junk mail, but its not there. Both accounts do get credited properly though even without the email, as long as the referral email is the same as your signup email. Another thing El Scorcho can do is call them and manually do a refer-a-friend. But I don't recommend that, I kept on getting the same cs guy, and I couldn't understand him half the time.

El Scorcho

C'mon guys - when I started this thread it was pointedly NOT about referrals. Seems like that's all we talk about now.

El Scorcho
02-18-05, 01:51 PM
I don't think I've ever said "please let me have your referral" in this thread. But if people are signing up and they want to give their referral away, they should be able to, shouldn't they?

Doesn't seem like a big deal to me. It only becomes a big deal if it becomes a referral begging thread, right?

mgbfan
02-18-05, 05:11 PM
Yeah, I suppose. It's just referrals seems to be all that's discussed here anymore. Just kind of disappointing after I deliberatly tried NOT to make the thread about referrals at first - face it, I could've had about 15 CoN and Reef Club referrals if I'd wanted at the start. I didn't because I wanted the thread to be above that.

In my experience, anytime referrals are involved in a thread like this, it's all people will think about. Free money is just too enticing.

Gallant Pig
02-18-05, 09:35 PM
I'd like to see you guys self police this. I think Moorhed's thread http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=408337 should be more about referrals. I'd also like to see a fair system of referrals employed where the love is spread around.

Thanks.

gimmepilotwings
02-21-05, 11:15 AM
Well, thanks for the referrals everyone.

Overall I had a bad taste in my mouth about the online casinos, (only myself to blame) I went to planetluck and moved my $200 up to $800 and somehow managed to lose it all.

Lost all at Starluck, and at casino on the net, the $200, left with 450. I still made $100 or so with the referrals and the bonus, but I am more mad at myself than anything.

gimmepilotwings
02-21-05, 11:18 AM
I also played the Slots777 at slots of vegas. The key to me so far is to mix table games, Blackjack, War with the slots. I have met 1/3 of my commitment to the slots by going back to the tables and winning more money to play in the slots. You start with $2300 or so to gamble on the slots, I have $1400 to go, with over $160 in my account.

Spy021
02-23-05, 05:55 PM
Haven't done any of these in a while so I'm trying to catch up on the posts. Does InterCasino offer a referral bonus? If so, anyone need want to send me a referral?

Intercasino doesn't have a referral program. But it does have the easiest montly bonus in the known universe.

moorehed
02-25-05, 08:06 PM
what is this monthly bonus?

mgbfan
02-26-05, 01:17 AM
$90 100% no-risk bonus. (well, not QUITE no-risk - you risk the $1 cashout fee).

John Richmond
02-26-05, 01:55 AM
PartyPoker has released it's February reload bonus. It's BONUSFEB and gets you 20% up to $200. Have to play 7x the bonus in raked hands.

I put in $700 today and have cleared half the 980 raked hands in one day. So I should clear the $140 bonus in two days of playing. Not to mention whatever I make playing. Pretty good deal.

moorehed
02-26-05, 12:07 PM
mgb, how do i get this 90$ free into my account?

mgbfan
02-26-05, 01:29 PM
For Intercasino, you deposit $90, they match it, and you play. Here's the thing - unlike most casinos, you play with the bonus money first. So if you lose all $90 of the bonus, you just withdraw your deposit (costs $1 fee).

<B>NEED HELP</B>

Alright, I need help! I am playing at alljackpots.com. I put in 50$, with my bonus, my balance was 255$ to start. I have been playing the spring break slot on semi autoplay (it stops for free spins and big wins). I haven't hit anything huge, but made money on several of the "free spins".

what i need help with is this. my balance is now up over 1000$. I still am nowhere near meeting the requirement to cashout. would you suggest moving to a less variant game? like what? should i just look for a plain 3 reel slot with the smallest jackpot payout? what do you think. or would i be just as well served continuing on the spring break?

moorehed
02-27-05, 02:45 PM
up to 1250$. what should i do?

moorehed
02-27-05, 03:57 PM
well i have continued. just hit my first "big" pull. ($376).

http://www.circulargenius.com/images/springbreak.gif

so now i have 1350$ of balance with ~ 300 pulls left @ 4.50$ each.

El Scorcho
02-27-05, 04:27 PM
Fuckin nice man.

I love that spring break slot.

moorehed
02-27-05, 04:29 PM
i was hitting the "free spins" very often when it started out. i wasl ike man how can you lose on this. seemed like id hit it every 30-50 pulls... now it seems more like every 200-300 pulls.

actyper
02-27-05, 09:37 PM
Don't you have to play slots to satisfy the WR?

Need some advice.

1. Any way to quickly check how much you wagered? Didn't get a chance to write down how many spins I went through playing mermaid millions, goes to another screen when you get those treasure chests.
*edit: nm, figured out by creating a jackpotclub membership.

2. I just hit a $600 spin on Major Millions! woohoo! (Will post screenshot later) 5 of those major million dudes. Now I approximate myself to be halfway through the wr, whats the best way to play now to maximize profits? Before hitting that I went through a major tailspin, going from $450 to my last $50, all in 550 spins at $3.

El Scorcho
03-02-05, 03:09 PM
There's no real way to "protect" your profits playing the slots with a ways to go with the WR. You're playing against the same fixed house advantage no matter how high your bets are.

You have to look at it like a long battle. Sure, you hit a big win. But you still have a ways to go -- you haven't won anything yet!

I had one of the rooms up to $1050 or so, but finally cashed out at $730 because the WR kicked my ass.

moorehed
03-02-05, 03:24 PM
Scorcho,
You are right that you are playing against the same fixed house advantage, however the main thing I was asking was, since I was already up quite a bit, if it would be a good idea to switch to the slot with the lowest variance. This way I would not be able to hit as big of a win, but i would ramp down more slowly hopefully as I complete the requirement.

I was THINKING that looking for the slot with the smallest jackpot payout, and the least frills would give you the best opportunity to not go down a lot, albeit the worst opportunity to cash big again --- holding on to as much of your big win as possible.

this is probably flawed... but that's why i was posting for guidance... as it was i just let it ride and i kept going up up up.

moorehed
03-02-05, 03:35 PM
actyper,
would you mind posting the vipers you are hitting up. (the bonus, playthru, and any comments)

that would be sweet.

actyper
03-02-05, 04:03 PM
I did Casino Classic already, and am about to do Casino Kingdom. Then ruby palace, spin palace, maybe capt cooks.

Casino Classic and Kingdom
Depost 20 get 40. Can do this 3 times.
Bonus * 35wr, then move to real account
Original deposit * 35wr
The kicker is to do this in British Pounds to fully maximize your profits, and of course this is all autoplayed. Just change the strategy card to your liking. Doubles and splits happen a bit more than 10%, so set your autoplay accordingly. I just did 1pound bets to be on the safe side.

FYI - one of the two original casinos I recommended to start this thread, Reef Club, has changed their bonus terms. The WR there is now 200xBonus.

That's right, 200xBonus. When I recommended it, it was 10x. Here's hoping you all got in while the getting was good, and here's hoping Casino-on-Net doesn't go the same way.

03-03-05, 01:58 PM
All New Members will receive a Welcome Bonus on their first Deposit to their Reef Club Casino Account. The Welcome Bonus is limited to one bonus per household and cannot be used in conjunction with any other offer. This Welcome Bonus may be Cashed Out only after an amount totaling no less than 200 times the Welcome Bonus has been wagered. - for example, a Member must wager $10,000 before being able to Cash Out a Welcome Bonus of $50.

$40k in wagers for max bonus, no problem. :) And especially the reef software, one of the slowest available. There was also that one week where it was only 5x! I missed out on that one, but did the 10x before it changed to 20x.

Two more I found today (well, one is returning that disappeared last week):

www.jackpotcity.com - $50d + $200b, $5000 WR on slots/video slots only
www.luckynugget.com - $50d + $200b, $5000 WR on slots/video slots only

El Scorcho
03-08-05, 01:09 AM
!!!!

At jackpot city, I got my $50 deposited. I submitted the form and waited for the bonus.

However, while I waited, I played. Got my $50 up to $275.

So I called them and asked if I could refuse the bonus and cash out right now. They let me. $225 profit.

PLUS, tomorrow the $200 will still end up in my account and is subject to the 20x WR.

This seems to be the way to play these. Play through your initial $50, THEN submit the form, just in case you win big early.

Update..

After cashing out my $275 total from jackpotcity, I went over to Lucky Nugget and blew my initial $50. Got my $200 bonus a few hours later. Worked it up to $700 real early, including a $3 win that I doubled/quadrupled a few times up to about $200 or so.

At any rate, the slots slowly sucked away my winnings down to $200. Went over to the blackjack table and built it up to $600. Back over to the slots and it sucked away. Back over to blackjack and built it up again. Slots sucked it away again. Went over to blackjack and busted out finally. Oh well, still another $175 profit between the two casinos for one night. :up:

El Scorcho
03-08-05, 12:47 PM
I was doing $2.25 on the Reel Thunder slot. I hit 4xScatter 3 times in about 10 spins. Popped it up real quick. Spring Break was not kind to me last night :(

Hey, I just realized if you minimized those microgamming screens they still run in the background! (Sorry maybe I'm just the slow one :)) Started my Capt Cook 9000 wager at 7:30 am, $1 bets, as of right now its only at 8400! As long as I don't lose a lot in a row, should come out with about a $300 profit.

New T&Cs are up, but doesn't go into effect into thurs. Casino Classic, Kingdom and Cooks, 42xwr, no vegas strip blackjack. You can still play atlantic city, which has a little bit greater house advantage. Still +EV though.

I have to run microgaming autoplay in the background, as the rapidly spinning reels causes the processor to shit itself and get real hot.

We have been the subject of a large group of who have taken unfair advantage of our promotions.
In this case, "unfair advantage" means "you took us up on what we offered you."

I was doing bets of $2.25 to start out, with the occassional $2.70 or $4.50 pull. Never lower than $2.25 though.

And yeah, I try the initial $50 first. On riverbelle, I busted out of the original $50 right away. Then claimed the bonus.

For Intercasino, you deposit $90, they match it, and you play. Here's the thing - unlike most casinos, you play with the bonus money first. So if you lose all $90 of the bonus, you just withdraw your deposit (costs $1 fee).


:D

Thanks for the tip on intercasino... I played blackjack there tonight and cashed out $1100! I made a $100 deposit, got the bonus and then cashed out my original $100 when I was up around $300. I figured everything that was left was basically free money and I would cash out when I either hit a grand or a hundred left - I hit the grand first :D.

Rumor has it Empire and Party do reloads on alternating months.

Both Party and Empire had reload bonuses last month and maybe the month before. Not sure about that. I do the whole $150 bonus and the 1050 hands I can usually do in one day of 3 or 4 tabling. Plus, I usually get $80-$90 off of the fish (gotta hit those draws in the big pots though).

Scorcho , if you're already on Party then make sure you use a clean computer to sign up with Empire. I'm not sure if Empire checks the IP or not. Well worth it to sign up though. I only play Party and skins during the reload times but I make some pretty good change each month from them. Also,
I would be happy to refer you if you do sign up. $50 for me.

Thanks for the heads up John. I had some down time after completing the Golden Tiger reload last night so I grabbed my other laptop and signed up for Empire. $100 bonus (500 hands), which I'm halfway through already (and up $60). As soon as this is done, I'll be doing the $150 reload bonus (1050 hands) immediately after.

I hope Empire has more than one reload this month. These reloads on party are a cakewalk.

The Empire reload last month was account specific. This will be the only reload bonus for Empire this month. The other bonus was for "New Real $ Accounts" which was 50% up to $100 10x wr. The affiliate 1st deposit bonus is better, 20% up to $100 5x wr.

I jumped the gun and deposited $600 in there yesterday by mistake. Stupid popup made me think the released it a day earlier. Luckily I only played about 100 hands or so, but came out with $108 in an hr. So well worth it. Time to throw another 6 bills in there!

Go into your rewards account and there's a place to select your promotion. If you took the free money they're offering, you might not be able to use the $200 bonus.

Been pecking away slowly at mine. Right now, without the bonus, I'm up $150, so I should finish very nicely ahead (barring some insane losing streak down the final 200 or so hands).

Seems like an awesome casino bonus here:

http://www.bet365.com/casino/default.asp?lindex=14

100% match up to $200, looks cashable, and only 10x WR ($4000). Blackjack and VP allowed.

3.BONUS AWARDING

Qualifying customers will have their account credited with a matched bonus up to a maximum $200. Note: The bonus will only be awarded once you have purchased chips.

The bonus may only be redeemed once cumulative wagers totaling not less than 10 times the sum total of your deposit and your bonus have been placed. Bonus funds may not be cashed in until this handle has been met. Any cash-in of casino chips before this wagering requirement has been met will result in the automatic permanent removal of bonus chips from your account. Any wagers will use your own, deposited money before the bonus balance.

Only wagers made on real money games will contribute to the wagering requirement. Wagers made on any variations of roulette, baccarat, craps and sic bo games will not contribute to the wagering requirement.

These requirements also need to be met over and above any other requirements.

Turned $200 into $800 on bet365. :) did some progressive betting on blackjack and caught a good run of cards. Only thing that sucks is that it's european dealer no-peek blackjack.

Two caveats about bet365:

1) You can deposit online with Neteller but it goes into your sportsbook account. You have to transfer to your casino account on the next step.

2) Withdrawls are not done on the bet365 website or software. Instead you have to transfer from merchant (transfer tab on neteller) using merchant ID BET34725 and your bet365 login ID on the next screen. Kind of odd.

But $600 profit in a few hours time. :D :D

I've grown quite fond of the Bodog 20% unlimited reload bonuses lately during the downtimes when empire/party aren't reloading.

I usually deposit $500, get $100 bonus. Have to earn 300 points. Get .50 points for a hand raked at 50 cents, 1.0 point for hands raked at $1. Two tabling 1-2 limit HE and Omaha and I cleared it in about 12-15 hours. Combine that with the fishiness of the site and it's a great money maker.

Prima site 50%, $100 max, 1x raked hands. Sign up thru expekt.com, when qualified email poker@expekt.com and give your alias and referrer’s alias, subject MUST be “refer-a-friend.” Ends April 25.

I’m not fond of supporting spammers, but this looks good. I’m thinking of doing it. Whaddayathink?

Somebody post your Prima alias so we can keep the referral in the “family.”

I'm a little worried about Absolute. There are stories floating around about cashouts being delayed. When you couple that with their hourly reload bonuses it makes you wonder about their cashflow. All this is 2nd and 3rd hand info so I don't want to alarm anyone. Just saying what I've heard.

I haven't read those threads that you linked to, but the rumor is that people were taking advantage of some new player bonus, signing up multiple fake accounts, and dumping the bonus money to real accounts. Most bonuses there aren't credited until you clear them, but I guess it was different for this one.

They halted payouts while they investiaged all cashouts. I heard estimates that 2000 accounts ended up being suspended/banned.

Question regarding intercasino's monthly match bonus --

I busted out twice (getting my deposit back) the last 2 months before meeting the WR. Does that mean both month's WR's carry over to May?

Lets say I was $1000 short in March and $1500 short in April. Will I have to go through $5000 ($2500 for may, $1000 for march, $1500 for april) to cash out May's bonus? Or is it just the previous month's WR + current month's WR ($1500 for April + $2500 for May)?

How can I get the WR reset to $0?

mgbfan
04-29-05, 03:07 PM
Yeah, it carries over. There's a rumor that if you lose half of your deposit ($45), the counter resets. I cannot confirm this. I haven't tried. My personal WR has swelled to more than $6000. I'm shooting for 5-figures. ;)

Just a heads-up for everyone. Empire has begun dropping the accounts of some known bonus whores. I don't know what you have to do to get their attention but playing until you reach the bonus and then cashing out immediately has to rank right up there.

John Richmond

The Cryptos have now added .25/.50 and .50/1 limit tables. I have an email into Interpoker to see if those tables count as raked hands for their monthly bonus. I haven't heard back yet. If they do that makes their $90 monthly bonus a lot sweeter (8X raked hands).

Played some .25/.50 there a little while ago. Much looser than the 1/2 tables. And the rake starts at like .90 or something so almost all hands are raked. Although my Crypto bad luck continues and I can't win a damned hand with ANYTHING.
I have been on an ungodly bad run there for 2 weeks now. I'm ready for it to turn back around.

Not sure if it fits in a "good" bonus thread or not, since it takes a while to clear at anything below $2/$4. At least the bonus dollars never expire.

El Scorcho

He gets $50/ref if you put his addy in:

Refer a Friend
Refer a rakeback player to (((WEBSITE))) and earn $50 for each play you refer to us. The $50 will be paid out when your friend has a Monthly Gross Rake of $300. You have to be a player with us already to refer us players. You will be able to see the players you have referred in the Member Area.


What do I do to refer a player?
To refer a player you would have to ask your friend to enter your email (the email you've registered with us) when he signs up to any of our deals. We will then add him as your friend, and this will be displayed in your Member Area. When he has generated over $300 in rake, we will pay out the $50 for the player. In the refer a friend section of your member area, you have to type in where you'd like to receive your money. We will not process any payments before this is done.
