just an experience from a newbie,
i don't play much online, $20 or $30 here and there. i prefer land based casinos. i took bonuses and would never win or i would win a little but quickly lose it.
i signed up with joyland casino (playtech), got a bonus, and blew it. ( i play slots by the way, just mindless fun). late september received an email from joyland offering a 500% bonus on a $20 deposit. well, nobody can pass that up, right? so i deposited.
so i'm playing slots with $120 at $5 a spin. not winning anything, i get down to my last $6 and i hit for $1000. i almost spit out my Starbucks mocha frappachino. i then checked wr ( i know i should check before, but ,hey, i didn't expect to win anything). wr was only 8x deposit+bonus. so i kept playing, this time keeping track. i even hit again for $250 and $400. after reaching wr i stopped. $1153 was my balance. i quit for the evening.
i went to winneronline.com to read latest before hitting the sack, as i always do, i found out the gambling bill passed and was awaiting bush's signature. so i went to joyland again and withdrew $1053 (minus bonus they get back) and waited nervously.
they requested id, i sent, they acknowleged. next day, joyland sends email to notify they are closing all usa accounts. just my luck, i thought. my only win and now it's illegal. i'll never see my money now.
long story, short. i received my money, in full, 4 days after request just like they said. everything went as smooth as silk.
so, i guess all i'm saying is, like anything else, there's good and bad in all things, but, my only experience with a joyland casino, was a ery positive one.
