Not true. There are still places where you can expect to make a nice profit just not as much or as many as before

How much were you wagering each time? You must have had a huge bad streak!
50 when I was above 1000, 25 when I was about 500, 10 below that. It was ridiculous, every time I got 20 the dealer got 21, every time I got 21 the dealer got blackjack, it got an Ace as it's first card 7 times in a row at one point.
Wasn't a happy bunny.
What I did (and this was again just luck most probably) was notice that if I had a losing streak, a winning streak would follow. Therefore, I would drop the bet if I started losing, and then after I won one, put it right up for the next hand, then back to normal again.
E.g.
(Amount won (from previous wager) is in brackets)
Lose (50)
Lose (50)
Lose (1)
Lose (1)
Lose (1)
Win (1)
Win (100)
Win (50)
Win (50)
etc.
I'm 100% sure that is completely paranoia by me, and probably mathmatically a very stupid thing to do :/

Something very similar happened to me on Skybet. At one point I had 10+ hands in a row that i'd lost, despite having got 20/21 on a good few of them.
Down £100 to them but i'm not at a loss overall thanks to wins elsewhere
A good place to check out for anyone considering this is moneysavingexpert.com. You will need to be registered to view the specific forum.
Alternatively search "bonus bagging, bonus baggers, etc." and you will find a number of established sites covering this topic. It's probably worth reading several to get a balanced opinion.
Remember, the sites promoting this will make money when you go through links/banners, etc. so you should keep in mind that there can be hidden motives for promoting specific casinos. For no other reason than to increase any profits, go through somewhere that pays you cashback.

I was on course to win about £1500, then either due to extreme bad luck or the program being rigged, lost it all before I reached the limit to claim it back.
hmmm - im pretty experienced in bagging, but this blackjack ballroom intrigues me
so its no deposit
1hr to turn 500WR - max profit of £200 (sticky?)
deposit £20 = £220 if im lucky on 1hr signup....
I then have to turn that for 35000WR and all profits are mine?
Thats more gambling than bagging imo - baggings about % chance of drawing a bonus 20/200/35000 is a crime, i would be facing huge variance on 50/100 per hand!!!

Yeah, because the WR is so high it could really go either way, and unless you're happy to sit for dozens of hours wagering small amounts then you're going to risk losing it all by wagering 25-100 per hand.
Still worth a shot if you've got nothing else to do for an evening though I guess.
Think I'll stick to matched betting for now though.

Since the offer for ladbrooks on BHB seems to be out of date.
This means that instead of it being 'Deposit £100, play £400, get money, you have to play £4000 to get the free £100?

I am a complete idiot. I just GAMBLED £300 tonight and lost it all. I was at one point making £25 bets at a go and losing £100 in 10 minutes. I really lost the plot tonight and now I am really depressed as I couldnt afford to lose anything (the fact Im skint made me interested in the first place).
Please can I urge anyone who is thinking of doing any online gambling to set an amount that you can afford to lose and then just walk away when thats gone. Also set an amount that you would be happy to win e.g. £25. If you get that then just walk away.
I started out doing the bonus bagging idea but lost the plot and now am in the doo-doo.
I am lying here seriously thinking about chucking another £50 to try and win some back but thank god as I write this it is obvious Id lose that too.
The devil makes work for idle hands...
