Anyone Know Of A Strategy For Online Casinos?

GUYS!

You're giving advanced bonus-whoring discussion to a guy who only just stopped using Martingale. It's like giving someone gasoline to set themselves on fire with. Please BE CAREFUL.

AngelfireDan,

There's one very important point that I would like you to confirm that you understand: Every bet placed in the online casino is a losing bet. The house always has an advantage, it never goes away, and not system whatsoever can beat it. It might redistribute your wins and losses (more small wins -> fewer gigantic losses), but it won't beat the game. This is Rule 1.

Now, you can reap an advantage by exploiting casino bonuses. But this has very important requirements, none are optional:
- You need to carefully analyze the bonus to see if it's a winner
- You need self-control to stick to your gameplan
- You need to deposit small enough, or have a large enough bankroll, to handle the fluctuations, which can be big.

But immediate term, you've got a large balance at the casino, and you want to cash it out. To which I'll refer to the previous discussion in the thread for details (as I don't play that casino)
- confirm things with a CSR
- Stop playing prohibited games
- Pick a game that will lose you relatively little to complete the wagering requirement
- Bet fairly small (like $20-$25, depending on game)
- Grind it out

You can win everytime at online casinos, if you know when to leave- when you' are winning. The problem is you don' t know when you' ll start to lose. If you play to win, and not for fun, you must leave as soon as possible. This must be your only goal before starting. This won't maximize your earnings, but it will maximize the days that you left the table on positive.

yes, until you lose your first bet, and never break even again.

sooner or later, it will happen

Hi guys,

I just thought I'd post up on here an update about what happened to my Vegas Red situation (lol).

Well, I realised that it was highly unlikely that the casino would let me have my winnings after playing roulette (after reading the posts on here, and also re-reading the t & c), so for the hell of it I wagered my WR on Spin A Win, which did it nicely, I only lost about �80 after wagering �80 x 30. I then preceeded to cashout, and tried to withdraw a missable amount of �57 (I figured they might just miss it lol) but a few days later, I got a nice email saying I had been playing on a restricted game and my winnings were void. Hurrah, no suprise there.

And all of the months I'd been gradually playing 0.10 a bet for hours using the Martingale system, admittedly it did work, and I won loads, although I came very close to losing it all a few times on the crazy betting, the advise from the website I used was ridiculous and now I realise a scam.

Having deposited �40 with an advised bonus to play roulette I had instantly lost, and there was no way back from the start, I guess the guy who ran the website will have got money from me clicking on his casino adds, and also depositing in the casino.

The upside though is that the casino, Vegas Red, didn't turn out to be rogue, which is fortunate, as I'd not even checked about rogue casinos, and they refunded me my �40.

Well, I apologise for newbie story, and I must sound like such a smuck to a lot of people, but I honestly took the website at face value and didn't think he'd be outright misleading.

You live and learn, from now on I'm sticking to playing Snap at cards lol.

Thanks for all your posts btw, really helped clear things up for me and help me realise what to do and what not to do in online casinos.

I've been playing online for 12 years.

For a good part of 4 years between 2003 - 2007 I dropped close on $250K - enough to buy my dream car a ferarri. Although I would cashed out & spend some, most of it went back.

Somewhere along that line I lost the lighter side of gambling - the fun of it all & replaced it with greed.

In Oct 2007 I took a break.
I've since returned but I again play for fun, entertainment and enjoyment. If I win it's a bonus. If I lose, when I lose, it's not going to affect me either way.

My point to this post is that if your going to gamble online then you have to keep it together. Although you'll find the same games in a land based casino, that's where the similarities end. Until you get your winnings in your hand, your deposits are just numbers on a screen!

Establish a weekly or monthly bankroll limit and stick to it.
If you get a decent win, cash out.
Don't ever chase your loses!

But whatever you do, don't get complacent, it can be a real bitch!

Cheers
T

Sorry to hear it didn't work out for you. Bottom line: Whenever you have a bonus, your options what you are allowed to do are limited and you have to know exactly what you are doing. If casino has an option to not pay you they will usually use this option. After all they are not charities are they.
