King Solomon's Cas!no

Promotion Terms:
* 30x wagering of deposit + Coupon on SLOTS AND KENO GAMES ONLY.
* Prior to withdrawal a balance greater than deposit + Coupon required.
* Each Coupon is only available to players with no account balance and no
pending withdrawals.
* Offers available once per player and not valid in conjunction with any other
offers.
* Only available to those players to whom the offer was sent
* This offer is terminable at any time in accordance with the views of
management without prior
notice or obligation
* If an excluded game is played at any time before wagering requirements are
fulfilled,
all game play is void.
* Wagering requirements must completed within 14 days after coupon code
redemption

These are the types of discredited offers from the Cloud outfits, and these are word for word, even down to the additional terms not common to King Solomons usual weekend offers that are normally in the region of 50% to 75% with around 200 to 700 of bonus money in total.

I am totally bemused at this, it is not even in the same format as the normal KS mailers. Something smells REALLY off here!!!!!

Any one care to comment?
Has anyone else received this?
Is this legit or a Warren style scam?

They're massively -EV bonuses

Sorry to go briefly off topic, but there's another thread around here somewhere where this Wager Junction group are accused of witholding ten percent of US player balances "in case there are chargebacks" WTF is that all about?

Quite, but these are not what I would expect of a reputable outfit!!

Why are KS resorting to this!

I thought they were withholding 10% of affiliate payments, not players.

KS email bonuses usually stink.

I received same offer from both King Solomons and Geisha Lounge if I remember well...good I don't have money to spend in this period

I got a couple of these mailers recently also and I was just shocked that it was coming from the wager junction group. Having these kind of massively -EV bonuses makes me wonder if they are having some kind of money issues.

[vinylweatherman]

Something is still not right here.
It is not just the different terms, it is the virtual verbatim use of the Warren Cloud language AND format for the mailer. It looks like Crystal Palace has simply been replaced by "King Solomon". They also say 30x Deposit and Coupon, however, KS have always written nn x Deposit and BONUS.

This really looks like a cut 'n paste from Crystal Palace, or are these actually RTG supplied templates that both have now used!

While they are massively -EV, they allow the opportunity to play loose in the chance of hitting a big win followed by grinding out the remainder.

The fact that this coincides with the other issue of witholding 10% from some accounts makes me wonder if there is a cashflow problem meaning they need large sums VERY quickly to keep going in the short term, perhaps to ride out some problem caused by this somewhat unexpected timing of the US Bill.

Such large bonuses would also allow them to use the weekly withdrawal limits to slow down any eventual withdrawals from takers of these bonuses.

It would be prudent for the rep to offer an explanation of this mailer, specifically why it is in "Warren Cloud" format rather than the normal mailer format.

Recent criticism of RTG slots in general would imply that they might "know something" that makes it safe to offer these massive coupons to everyone. While the WR is 30x from the normal 20x, they have made it 150%, and removed the term requiring the balance to be at least what you started with in order to withdraw.

This bonus would be worth it if the casino is still well run, although I would not advise making big deposits, but rather dividing the money available up over all 15 coupons till one hits. If one of the RTG progressives was overdue, this might be another reason for taking such an offer.

You've been tagged for scamming! I signed up with these guys and lost $8k in a month with a payout ratio under 85%. They offer lots of bonuses, but only because you need them to keep playing! These guys aren't even worth a looksee for a prospective player. Some forum members have said these guys are legit and honest, but i've seen too much proof to the contrary... avoid them!
