    BoDog Casino bonus worth it?

    This is not a "complaint" so I'm sorry if I shouldn't have posted here.

    BoDog has a bonus for 100% up to $200. Not bad, right? BUT as I'm sure most of you know....the rollover is 40X!!! So is it really worth having to play through $16,000 if you can't withdraw the $200 you deposited with at any time?

    Thanks!

    On a 100% deposit i think 40x WR is way too high. I've went up against 45x WR multiple times but the bonus given was 500%. I figured what the hell might as well give it a go so I can do a little "high" rolling for a change.

    I would stay away from it but then again to each his own I guess.

    Thanks, Cleveland! I'm definitely leaning that way.

    I don't think this should be in complaints section

    40xB is a little steep, but Bodog has a good reputation and you can find 50xB almost everywhere or even 100xB+ ... while 40xB is not the best option out there it's still within current industry standarts.

    When casino imposes Bx100 or more on slots only, this is where we can safely call it a scam, as chances of cashing out your deposit + winnings are almost none.

    I'd need more info to offer a good opinion.

    If it's 40x Bonus, not 40x Bonus plus deposit, that's the same thing as 20x D+B. If the bonus is cashable, then 40xB is fairly good IMO. If all games are allowed, even with weighting, it's pretty decent. It's not bad, even for slots only.

    If its 40x Deposit plus bonus, not so hot. Especially if it's phantom or sticky, or a a play only bonus, whatever you want to call it.

    If you like to settle in for a long session of play, bonuses help give you that. If you are out to make a quick buck, I think you are better off using your own funds so you can get while the getting is good if you hit well.

    Mind you, I've had sessions where I would have left with my own funds, and ended up hitting another win because I was still trying to make wagering. But the times I've busted after making an early gain are more frequent.

    It is 40 x D+B. He said 16,000 playthrough and mentioned using the 200.00. Would be 8,000 playthrough if it was just x B.

    I think that's pretty high then, unless all games count 100%.

    From their T&Cs: Play in Single Deck and Double Deck Blackjack, Baccarat, Sic Bo, Craps, Lucky Wheel, Casino Hold'Em and Roulette does not count towards meeting rollover. All others count as 100%.

    For euros its 100% to 50€/£/$.

    And the bonus is quite a good one.
