The Definitive Bonus Poll

[Simmo!]

Hi guys,

Nothing like a good poll every now and again and seeming as this seems more topical than usual recently...

I ran that poll on whether they're worth it - but now lets do the real deal. Do you or dont you "Bonus"?

Cheers

Simmo!

PS. You can choose more than one option

Not played a casino with bonus funds since September. Nowadays the playthrough is too restrictive. I play mainly poker (on my 54 prima accounts )

Still have an occasional flutter on BJ but avoid bonuses like the plague, nothing but trouble IMHO

I'm more interested in loyalty bonuses, that what i pick, inetbet and casino fortune, gives them to me.

People need to learn how to play with no bonus when they dry up.

I usually play with bonus and have very little issues with them. However when I joined 32 Red I did not take the bonus, looked like trouble to me. Did not win that session and it would have carried over. I do like the loyalty bonus though.

Well, I voted they're 'important to me', though that's a bit of an understatement. 'Main source of income' might cover it... is 'manna from heaven' going a bit far Apologies - slightly drunk on a royal flush pushing my 'earnings' since discovering bonuses in February to nearly £17k tax free ($34k).

By 'Loyalty Bonus', do you mean monthly deposit bonus? They are the only thing that 'do it' for me (as long as they're 50%+ and NOT sticky!). Being a self-confessed low-roller, comp point programs have no appeal to me at all.

BTW, I do also regularly deposit without a bonus as well.
(By regularly, I mean once EVERY year! )

I dont get this sticky bonus thing - i thought they were a good thing KK? What am i missing?

I never take the bonus. It is such a waste to have to risk your deposit for such a measly amount of free money which most of the time is not free money at all. I wish the casinos removed bonuses totally, it would pretty much cause the demise of the casino complaints section. I can also guarantee that if all casinos got rid of bonuses their business would not be hurt, people still want to gamble it is an addiction. Just my opinion.

They'd still gamble, but not at 99% of on-line casinos! Off to buy some Christmas pressies with that 'measly amount of free money' they give out

Yes,bonuses are restrictive but there was one in particular I liked but didnt take at the end. This casino credits you with the full amount lost from your initial deposit as a bonus with wagering requirements,of course. This gave me a second chance only if I lost. Luckily,I wonso I cashed out. No problems with that.
