I just like playing poker... I mean if I have a deposit code i use it, but as I understand that most of the time the bonuses are not all they're cracked up to be, ie play through requirements Ts&Cs etc, the fact that they only pay once the site has been paid (if u get me)that they are not the reason that I play at any particular site.

But no deposit bonuses, they cant be bad.

I just started with casino bonuses to pad my poker bankroll. Low WR (wagering requirements), cashable bonuses, and blackjack play allowed to clear WR is the most important for me.

The math will do the rest to actually have some of the bonus at the end of the WR.

Any winnings are an added bonus.

I've never seen a site that Blackjack counts toward the wage requirements. Which site have that?

Thank you,

I Run A Website Promoting Casinos And I Never Seen A Playthrough That Included Blackjack. I Would Be Interested Myself To Know Which One.

I Picked Low Wagering Requirements Assuming This Is Talking About Deposit Bonuses Or No-Deposit As Well.

Free Money Is Always Nice Though.

{Never Open More Than 1 Account At Any Place Or You Will Jeopardize Your Winnings,Future Bonuses, And Possibly Get Your Account Locked .}

The best two (so most +EV) casino bonus sites which allow blackjack in their wagering requirement is Starluck and Planetluck.

Last time I checked, for a $100 deposit, they only required 8x the D+B so just $1600 in wagering (Expected EV playing basic strategy of just -$8).

Cheers and good luck.

[update: They've changed their requirements... it's now 24x D+B so $4800WR, still very +EV]

Holy crap $4800 to get $100! That's unreal. I'm sure it's more resonable than I think, I just don't want to know how much I am betting each week. It's kind of like the print outs you can get from the casio boats to offset any winnings you may need to pay taxes on. If I ever saw mine I may never go back...

Who am I kidding!

Thanks for the info

casino bonuses in my experience will only make you play longer and in the long run you will most probably lose. the longer you play , the chance of losing is getting higher so thats why most of the times i dont used bonus codes.

I agree. I have enough problems turning it off without the "clearing the bonus" hanging over my head.
