    Angry Casino for me bonus

    Hello guys

    I have just deposited 250 at casino-for-me in order to get the 250 bonus. Since, Black Jack is excluded this time i need to play anyting else.

    According to some sites Video Poker is best to play after BJ, I choosed Jacks and better which should be the best one. I shoused to play at 0,25 / card and bet max= 1,25 euro / hand, anyow after just a couple of minutes i went down 50 euros... Horrible i stoped playing .

    How should i wager this bonus?

    Any suggestion is grately appreciated

    Cheers

    Video Poker has a high variance, especially when played with only 1 or 4 hands, as is available with Chartwell SW. Losing €50 quickly is not uncommon. You can expect your bankroll to drop until you hit a big win, which will payout far more than your initial bet. You can use the calc at http://www.beatingbonuses.com/vpcalc.htm to crudely estimate, if your results were within normal expectations or not.

    You asked about games. A lower variance option is Pai Gow poker. Pai Gow has the lowest variance of any common game in the casino since a large portion of the hands are ties. The house edge is about 2.7% -- quite a bit higher than video poker, but low enough that you will likely make a gain.

    Please note that Chartwell 1-line Jacks or Better is not full pay, it returns only 98.36%. 4 line JoB has better paytable.

    Also good to know that wagering the bonus doesn't contribute to the wr, so you might have to redeposit if your balance drops below the bonus amount. In that case, depending on how far you have gone with the wagering, an alternative strategy might be to freeroll with the bonus and try to increase your bonus balance (the wr remains the same), and redeposit after that to fulfill the wr. So this is a really unique (strange) bonus.

    I have to admit that partly this bonus inspired me starting the "Having a break" thread in the Online Casino section. I have lost far above expectations playing 4-handed JoB.

    This is in wrong section, because I donīt see any issue here (just ranting because of negative variance).

    Yes, it is now. I moved it from the "complaints" section.

    I regularly play 4 hand full pay JoB with a total bet of Ģ20. Have had masses of luck in about 3 months, up over 3k.
