Take a bonus or not

I plan to deposit $300. I could have a bonus of 550% 30x playthrough 10x max cash out or 250% with no restrictions. Which is best? Thanks

just put the 300.00 in naked [no bonus] if you want more play time
play for fun till you cant stand it any more
then put the real $$money in why look for w/r problems and restricted games
no disrespect intended

I very rarely take bonuses, however occasionally I do and rarely win. My last $35 for 2009 went to a new casino for me and I took a 400% bonus with 25x playthru. Made the WR and cashed out $900......HAPPY NEW YEAR to me

To make WRs like that you need a couple of big wins to keep you going otherwise you've little chance. I was fortunate to get a $700 and $500 win which allowed me to make the $3500 WR

10x what in the first one?
If it's 10 x Bonus then I would go for that one - you're VERY unlikely to win that much.
But if the max is 10 x Deposit, then I would go for the second bonus instead.

Welcome to the forum, and good luck!

another important question is, is the bonus cashable or not?

because 30x WR for a non-cashable bonus is only a joke and waste of time and with this 10x max cashout rule it double sucks

The MOST important question is...which casino is it? 550% sounds ominously like a Virtual shithole. Please do your homework before depositing money anywhere...bonus or no bonus.

Check out the accredited list here, and more importantly, the rogue list. If the casino you're thinking of depositing at is on the rogue or not recommended list, find another place to play. Big bonuses do NOT equate to a reputable gaming establishment. All the bonuses in the world won't do you any good, if you'll never see your money should you win.

I would like to add my experience with not taking the time to read the T&C's along with all the bonus rules a casino can have and they all can vary.
Before I knew of this one RTG casino being considered Rogue, I had played there for some time making small deposits and always taking a bonus but never familiarizing myself with the conditions.
I had deposited $25, took a large bonus, don't remember exactly what it was but it came with the 10x max cashout rule. I made my playthrough with a small amount left and decided to play Diamond Mine Deluxe nickel slot, it had a progressive that was hitting $4,000 and wouldn't you know it, I won the jackpot. I was so thrilled having never won anything like that before, so I immediately cashed out. After a few days the processing was done and the amount sent to me was $250. So that 10x max cashout cost me $3,750 to learn to read before accepting a restrictive bonus like that, it was a very hard and expensive lesson.

Pina this is the new thing with rivals lately. Vegas Regal offers these kind of bonu
ses with max cashouts. Tropica also offers these..I think pretty soon all the rivals are going this way to either restrict how much you can withdraw or you only play without a bonus. I seldom take bonuses anyways.

the golden rule with these types of bonuses = play with your own money...

i mean say you took the bonus... you could be 1000's up and still have 6000 to meet WR...

the way i see WR its a way for casinos to keep you playing thus you lose more... i mean hell yea if you deposited £20 and got a £20 bonus then won £6000, thats very well,

but in your case id play with your own money and leave it at that

If I was gonna deposit $300 I would go with the 250% with no restrictions cause it sucks to have a max cashout. I took one of those amazing buy $100 and get $200 at a Rival Casino with a max cashout of $1000 and of course after I met the WR requirements I was up $4000 but of course could only cashout $1000 which sucked. I guess that is Murphy's law. Max cashout restrictions are bad in my opinion if your going to deposit more than $75 or so, anyway that is my 2cents worth.
