    How would you comply to this term ???

    I.:

    Until a Player completes the wager conditions for the Welcome Bonus, the Player's total Cash Account balance represents the maximum a Player may wager as a single bet. The Player's Cash and Bonus Account balances may not be combined as a single bet until the wager conditions have been completed for the Welcome Bonus.

    Along with:

    II.:


    Wagered credits are first deducted from a Player's cash balance. If no credits remain in the cash balance, the wager is then deducted from the bonus balance.


    Hmmm, what is my max bet, if I deposit 50, get 50 bonus, and lost all to an balance of 50.03 Euro ????

    Find a Slot and play 3 lines of 1 ct ?

    Or if I only have bonus money left, go to FREEPLAY ???

    it sounds to me that you'd have to wager the remaining .03 euro which sounds really strange to me.

    But it also says they can not be combined as a single bet does this mean one bet containing the .03 & the 50 or the .03 and an amount such as 35? which would leave 15 euro's resulting in more than a single bet. i think we need some bonus experts in here

    I'm thinking this is more of a general question than a specific complaint, no?

    If there are no objections I'll bump it over to one of the other forums.

    I object not, but do you understand what the heck those terms mean?

    Very simple. I would go to a casino that shows me it is smart enough to create bonus offers that make more sense and don't require a thorough analysis by CM Forum members to understand it

    Your assumption sounds right to me! Very poorly wrote term "or a bonus trap" the bonus money is useless unless you make the playthrough first on the initial deposited money and bonus and then the bonus money can be combined and used for betting. Otherwise the bonus money is null and void.

    I know what they mean, but the person who wrote this needs to go back to school

    They are outlawing the situation where a player deposits 50, gets 50 in bonus, and then bets the whole 100 on a single hand of Bacarrat, or a single spin of Roulette.

    The way it is written also leads to unintended consequences, and a huge loophole

    The unintended consequences are the situation where the player has only 0.03 left as cash. They must first bet this 0.03 and lose, but can THEN make the next bet with the whole 50 of bonus, since they are not "combining their balances".

    The loophole is to bet not 100, but 99 for their first bet. This is not "Player's Cash and Bonus Account balances may not be combined as a single bet", but making one big bet that does not combine the WHOLE balance, leaving enough for at least one more bet, thus not a "single bet".

    Far better would be to define the maximum bet as a percentage of the player's initial deposit, such as 25% or even less. Alternatively, the definition can be placed as a percentage of the starting BANKROLL. The clarity is that the starting deposit and bonus granted will define the maximum amount that may be played on a single game. For clarity, this should be set for the most advantageous games for "bonus abuse", such as Blackjack - bearing in mind that options to "double down" could increase the the initial bet to double or more the starting value, which might make 10% a better option.

    King Neptune is now controlled by Carmen Media (BelleRock), so it is them that need to "go back to school" and rewrite the rules for ALL their sites.
