I found 888.com and read some good reviews on it.
I made a €37,- deposit (i play for fun, not to make or lose a lot) and got a 100% bonus.
I have done this before on 7red.com - payed €50,- got €50,- bonus won €113,- on roulette and i was able to cash out with €150,-.
I ofcourse lost the 50,- bonus.. no problem, and later on 1 lost the remaining of my own 13,-.. no problem.
But I found out that 888 doesnt work in that same fair way.
I started with 37 + 37 = €74,- and 2 days later i had a balance of €161,-. And like many of you know... all the money I won was just 'bonus wins'.
With a balance of €161,- there was only €40,- to cash out.
At one point i dropped a lot to only a balance of €57,- (or near that) and guess what .. there was only €10,- left to cash out.
I got really frustrated about the fact that winning means nothing ,cause it takes months of playing and winning 50+% of your bets to actually start owning the bonus money. I doubt that one might really ever will - if one constantly gains a little more than he bets.
While on the other hand - Losing direcly means losing actual money.
I seems to me that this system is stupid. I feel like it should count every €1,- bet as 50% of the deposited money and 50% of the bonus money.
It would have been really nice if I just could take half of the €161,- to cash out.
The story so far is that - today- I ended up with €74,50 (0,50 more than I started with) and was able to set €37,50 on cash out.
I now hope that they will actually pay the cash and that this litte advanture with 888 will end with €0 losses.
I'd like to read more from people that have been playing with 888.
