Golden Tiger Casino - details

9th September 2008
Now the first thing to note about this blog entry is it’s not the normal Casino Whoring posts in the past, this one's got some serious deposits involved.

I had been playing blackjack at Golden Tiger Casino for the last week with fairly largish hands of around $75 each and in total depositing $7,000 and withdrawing $9,063... Not knowing much about the rewards program offered by Golden Tiger I thought that was that until I got an email letting me know I had been granted a "Casino Rewards High Roller Bonus". Now not knowing what this was exactly I logged into the rewards system and pleasantly found I had $780 in bonuses to claim, $380 of which was earned by playing that week and the other $350 as an extra bonus... So I sent $350 into Golden Tiger Casino and went in to see what exactly I had to do to cash out. Now going to the cashier I found that the $350 balance was bonus money and I had to play to cash it out. So I went straight into blackjack and started playing 2x $50 hands and ended up on $700 after playing for 10 minutes. I then proceeded to check the cashier and see if I could withdraw, and noticed that even though only $350 of the $700 was in the cash balance I could not withdraw as I had not met the requirements…Noticing blackjack was not helping any to reduce the bonus balance I tried American Roulette and placed $50 randomly on numbers in $5 lots and then one of my numbers hit! Luck was on my side so I played a little more and went back to look at the bank with $930 in my balance...

The Balance showed still $350 in bonus money and the rest in cash but I was still not able to withdraw… so checking the Golden Tiger Casino Review I noticed that American Roulette was at 1500 time the bonus and the next best game to work off the bonus was Casino War which was only 60 times the bonus, so I went to WAR! Now casino war is fast and I managed to stay on the side of lady luck and hit some very luck hands like this one below. With a high $1350 I took this cashier balance screen shot: (Notice you are able to withdraw at this point even though there is still money in the bonus balance).





I continued to play casino war and completed the wagering and cashed out a further $1,050 giving me a total of $3,113 profit for the week at Golden Tiger Casino :)

I made $100 deposit and was instantly granted with $100 bonus. Wagering requirements were 35 times the bonus amount and since blackjack was an excluded game, I decided to give Casino War a try. I started out betting $2 a hand, just to get a feel for the game, and soon switched to $5 a hand. I thought that the Gods of variance weren’t on my side since I started losing hand after hand. Soon I was $100 down, that’s when I decided to risk a bit and started betting $10 hand. After losing seven consecutive hands I was left with only $30 balance, but then things turned and soon enough I recovered. By this time I had cleared 2/3 of the WR, so I started minimizing my bets, and finally grinding $2 a hand. My final balance $300, or $200 profit.

Plum Gaming Casino - details

23rd January 2008
Plum Gaming Casino is new on the scene and is offering an attractive cashable bonus of 50% up to 100€ with most games allowed including blackjack and a 25 times the bonus and deposit wagering requirement. So I deposit 200€ and once moved the funds into the casino account was instantly credited with the bonus 100€ giving me a total of 300€ to play with... Now I was pleasantly surprised to see the NetEnt software which is one of my favourites (same as Betsson software) I played 2x5€ blackjack hands and was on an incredible streak to start and topped out at 730€! Here is a screen shot of the luck I was having:



But after the advice of Zuga (forum admin) to drop my bets and grind I decided not to as I still had a fair amount of the 7500€ wagering requirement to go so I continued at 2x5€ bets. Now this is where my luck turned and I ended up finishing the WR on 320€ giving a very respectable profit of 120€ but nothing close to my highest peak. cash out took about 2 days to hit my MoneyBookers account.

LuckyAce Casino - details

21st January 2008
LuckyAce Casino, is a clone of Casino On Net (888) and so is the bonus which is a great thing. The bonus is a cashable 100% up to $200 with a low wagering requirement of 20 times the bonus, all games allowed except for craps and roulette. Tthe terms also state that if you deposit via Neteller you have to wager the bonus 50 times instead of the standard 20 so I contacted live support to ask weather MoneyBookers had the same restriction.

Me: does Moneybookers deposit still get the sign up bonus?
Jonathan: Yes you will be entitled to the First Deposit bonus with any deposit method, as long as has not been used on another account.
Me: cool, does it get the 50 times bonus restriction like Neteller?
Jonathan: No 20x wagering
Me: cheers.... thanks for your help mate

So I deposited $200 via MB and because it was late I decided to gamble a bit and played through at 2x$10 classic blackjack. I hit a high of $630 and a low of $230 but finished on $405 and then requested a withdrawal giving me a $205 profit. I was then contacted and asked for documentation and I will update once that’s all cleared and the money hits my account.

Warning: Lucky Ace first requested the documents be resent due to a technical error.... then they accused me of being a bonus abuser and closed my account, stripped my winnings and refunded my deposit. I was playing $10 hands of Blackjack which is hardly bonus abuse. And if I had lost the deposit I am sure they would not have refunded my deposit, this is pretty much stealing....

Enter Casino - details

18th December 2007
Made $75 deposit using MB, and received 200% sign up bonus, instead of 100%. Bankroll $225. Contacted live chat, they confirmed that the WR is 12X B+D, in all $2700 to wager. I played $25 a hand( single player BJ). After wagering half of WR I was up to $500. As I was approaching the WR, I started minimizing my bets, at $10, $5, and eventually started grinding $1 a hand. By the time i cleared WR I was around $470.

Day 2: So feeling quite happy, I decided to play more ( as cover play), played even some slots, Jacks or better, and soon I wagered over $3800. Than I decided to contact live chat to once more confirm WR, and they told me again that wr is 12xd+b, so being way over WR i decied to withdraw. By that time I lost $50, so my bankroll was at $420, which meant I could withdraw $270. I submitted the request, and the withdrawal was pending.

Day 3: That friday morning i received email from enter casino CS, they cancelled my withdrawal,saying i didn’t meet WR, and that I still have to wage some $1750 or so! and that the WR is 25x B+D instead of 12! I was badly surprised, so I sent them a response, saying that I got the different info from their live chat , and I submitted the screen shot of that chat as a proof.

At my GREAT pleasure, they validate my claims, and allowed me to withdraw. So 4 days later I got $270 to my MB, which means nice $195 profit.
