Littlewoods has a poker bonus, and they have a casino bonus. You can choose to do one or the other, or both, but you can't transfer the bonuses back and forth and do both in one or the other. | | Static Link |

Does the casino use the "unreleasable" money first?
Yes, it does. However, any winnings you make will also be "locked up" as part of the bonus until you clear the WR. Not a big deal, as long as you clear it over the long run.
(And not too much of a wimp - I usually do these with £2 bets, but that's only because I've become a bit more accustomed to the ups and downs. Some of the guys in here wouldn't even touch it for less than £5 - £10 bets, but I'm not quite that hardcore.

Sounds about right. Hope you get a good explanation. | | Static Link |

Nope. Very easy to clear, nearly risk free. Play Pontoon. Do a search and you'll find plenty of good information on it.

Did you always play dollar tables? Are you sure you got all of your sessions recorded in PT?
Yes to the first.
I am pretty sure to the second.

I have done plently of those.
Sorry, meant to indicate NL levels as well. I don't play NL cash games normally, so I sometimes forget to post that info

I deposited 200 GBP.
According to PT I lost $57.73.
I now have 185.58 GBP.
Seems I have been credited 15 pounds. Does that make any sense?
No, those numbers don't add up. Based strictly on those numbers, you were definitely credited the bonus, so my guess is that you lost more money than you thought (or PT screwed up) A few questions:

Yes, both bonus's are casino bonuses (The initial sign up and the monthly)
Not sure of your discrepancy, I have always been exactly on with this and all the cryptos. | | Static Link |

Quote:
If you already played 500 hands, the £25 has already been credited to your account. If you keep good records, you should see that you have £25 more than you should have right now... it isn't recorded anywhere on a statement, it appears as "extra" in your account when you finish your 250 hands and finish your poker session.

No, no, no. Why does everybody keep repeating this? The T&C on the monthly £25 is quite clear, in that it is given after 250 DEALT hands at limits $1/$2 and above. There was some extraneous verbage found in it last month that was a mistake in their editing, that included some of the verbage from the Caribbean Sun T&C page, which has since been removed. I have corrected this in several threads, but the misinformation seems to keep hanging on. Don't know why.

| Posted by: theblitz at October 15, 2005, 5:15 pm | | Topic: Littlewoods Poker - New Player Forum: Bonus Whores | I signed up and deposited money in Littlewoods.
In my Promotions account appear 2 entries: New User and Matchdep.
How are they released?
I played over 500 hands and the "Requirement Satisfied" meter hasn't moved at all.
Are they not Poker bonuses? | | Static Link |
