Bonuses are the worst thing a player can do when playing in an online casino. I have made way more money playing with my money than I would ever have if I had to lock my money into wager requirements, which I would most likely lose it having to play it so much. Not only do they have ridiculous wagering requirements which gives the casino a better chance at recovering the money, a lot of casinos also have added stipulations that Blackjack does not count, and that if they consider the play as non risk wagers they can void the bonus and any winnings made with it. Anyone with a brain can look at that and see that bonuses are a guaranteed way for the casino to make money from you, and that if by chance you do make money with it they have avenues to make it so that the winnings are void. Casinos want you to claim the bonus, it removes risk. I even had emails stating that they deposited free chips in my account. There is nothing in the email stating that I should read terms for these free chips, so when I go to their website and search for a while, finally finding the T&C's for the free chips it states the wager requirements and then way down at the bottom in very small print it says that I may use the free chips to enjoy any game in the casino but I cannot make a withdrawal until I have met the wagering requirements in their slot products. Bonuses are a crock, and they are for the benefit of the casino, not the player no matter what the math men say about increasing the odds in the players favor. I voted to reflect this. I know I will have a furry of loyal bonus 'hunters' that will say they have made thousands of dollars over the years collecting bonuses. To them I ask, have you ever had any problems, lock outs, voids etc. over the years when collecting these bonuses?
