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

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$?

Independent auditors (PriceWaterHouseCooper) have verified the slots paying out 96.32% on alljackpots.com (probably similar for other microgaming sites too):



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.

Hey when someone wants to throw $150 or $200 to play some slots, I'm gonna do it. Especially when the slots have an autoplay feature that can run while I'm eating dinner, watching TV, etc.

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.

FWIW, the sites are legit. $1350 showed up in my bank account within 36 hours of withdrawl request.

Thanks for the heads up.. unfortunately:

All bonuses of 200% or more are non-cashable.

Bummer, I would have been all over this.

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/adc...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!

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.

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.

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

Those are the major ones. Everything else is pretty standard -- 100 or 200% bonus but with insane (20, 25, 30x) blackjack wager requirements.

You forgot InterCasino. If you're going to do Will Hill, might as well do this one as well.

Does anyone else here picture El Scorcho in front of his computer hitting refresh every three minutes to see if anyone in this thread has asked for a referral?
