Just won.....£430 from a casino

So, anybody still keeping up with this?
Just logged in to Gala today, and noticed that the monthly bonus is now split between games, with only £25 up for grabs on blackjack.
Rubbish, makes me think I should have claimed a couple more whilst there was still £100 up for grabs.
 
Time for some thread revival!
A quick warning to anybody intending to sign up for the Party Casino match bonus - don't sign up through Quidco!
Quidco offer £35 cashback for party casino sign ups, but if you go through them you get a different sign up bonus of up to £60, and you need to earn something like 420 party points to cash out.
Basically that equates to an insane amount of blackjack, so not really worth playing for.
 
Anyone still doing this? If so what casinos are still worth doing? Been looking into a bit but all of the offers seem poor now. Made a fair bit from matched betting a couple of years ago.

I made a few k from it in 2007/08 but good offers seem increasingly rare now. Sometimes a good bonus pops up with the likes of Ladbrokes or bwin.

beatingbonuses.com has a list of the best monthly/signup bonuses... i'd just complete them in the order listed there.
 
Monthlies are essentially dead. The casinos have caught on bigtime. Still a few good sign-ups if you're new, but nowhere near what there was a year ago. Only got one good reload in the last few months and that was from bwin.

If you haven't done casinos or matched betting, these days I'd recommend the betting.

What is this bonus bagging? :confused:

Basically you get a bonus from the casino, ideally a 100% match so you deposit £50 they give you £50 for example. There is a chart that gives you a strategy for playing Blackjack. Follow the strategy for the best chance of winning. You need to wager the amount a certain number of times (depends on the casino) before you can withdraw the bonus money. Some are different but I 'think' most of them now are about 20 or 25x the deposit+bonus so in this case if it was 20x you would need to wager £2000. You should do small bets of £2 so you'd need to do 1000 bets.

If you lost £50 you used to be able to withdraw your money so there was no risk but I don't think you can do that any more. There is still a good chance of winning.

I am currently doing a $500 100% bonus match but I will see how it goes before I tell you all about it. Casino seems a bit dubious.
 
I've had a disaster on a casino. Signed up for $500 matched bonus and it is only a 2% BJ wagering contribution.

Looks like I need to play Slots. Any tips?
 
That's why you read the terms really carefully, and then read them again!

Which casino is it?

I'm guessing you've already deposited? See if you can withdraw the deposit and forfeit the bonus. If you can't then you're in a bit of trouble. All the slots will have a high house edge, probably high enough to bust you out before you clear the bonus. They also have a high variance, meaning that you will most likely either make a big win or lose the lot.

If you have to play, you have two options. Either find one that will allow you to bet $0.10, bet small and grind it out, or make big bets and hope you strike lucky. Which one you choose probably depends on what the WR is.

Thanks. It's world-wide-win.com (avoid).

I usually do read the terms closely but lapsed because it was recommended. Unfortunately an old recommendation. I can't withdraw and the wagering requirements are nasty. Deposit plus bonus ($1000) so $20,000. I have made a $400 contribution via Blackjack.

What do you reckon is the best strategy?
