Maybe there is a Santa Clause, but him doesn't own any casino. The bigger the bonus, the further away I stay from his electronic toy factory.
Oh yeah. When I first saw those unbelievable offers from online casinos I just couldn't believe my eyes. There got to be something fishy, they must have rigged the software or maybe they don't pay up.
My record and my Neteller account tell me otherwise and I am so glad I was wrong.

Do you mean they are rigged? We are supposed to lose due to the house edge. I bet small to ensure the money I lost is within my tolerance. It's their generous promotion that keep me ahead.
Of course, if you are playing your own money you will always lose, and rightfully so. It's "entertainment" and we are expected to pay for it.
edit: Wave, thank you for the correction.. How come I never realize I spell it wrong? Really embarrassing.

Interesting.
How come I rarely be able to come up ahead on my first deposit? If my memory serve, my initial deposit with omni sank to the bottom in no time. I lost 2 months in a row before I started to come up ahead. Last month I was $150 ahead and this month I am $122 down. I go back to omni, sand and inter every month for one and half year and I just can't find any pattern.
Your friend's strategy might work because almost every casino offer sign up bonus of some sort. If he doesn't take any bonus at all, it's ery likely he will lose one of his deposit for every 3 deposit he made.

I believe there is something to my "Early Winning" theory. I am not positive about this theory, but somehow I do believe it has some merit. This what I'm writing about:
Lets say that for this post, Early Deposits means your first 3 deposits to your NEW account to an online casino. In my case, this would be any time during my first three deposits ($100 each). My strategy was to play sessions where I would bet higher as my bankroll grew and lesser if it shrunk, using basic stategy. Tried to eventually get it to the $800 to $1000 mark and only then withdraw.Would play many sessions, quiting each session when it looked like a good winning session was starting to turn sour or if it was taking too long to get on a good streak.
OK, well I can tell you that I almost made it to my goal several times by the time I lost all of my third deposit. AND in almost every case, I was well ahead at some point during the Early Deposits. I esp. recall when I was over $600 ahead during my secon... | | Read Entire Entry |

Wasn't sure what you were on about as my signature was a joke. Seems this leads to a bad Mel Gibson/Julia Roberts movie from about 1997.

I am not completely sure what you are trying to say, why are you surprised to hear it from me? and why are you saying i should read all the postings?
If you had read some posts by other players on this board (including me), you would have discovered evidence of game fixing and terrible results on BJ reported by other players. I recommend you do some research on the casinos you plan to play at because it will save you a lot of grief.

Perhaps it's because you mentioned several online casinos by name, that you're a fairly new poster, that you've only posted several times, AND that you seem so exuberantly euphoric.
Regardless, to answer your question, it may just be a case of "beginner's luck". Obviously the casinos are there to make money, so to think that you can continually win and essentially treat the online casinos as your own money-printing service is flawed.
I personally prefer Sands and Omni. Both have great service, a turnaround time for cashins of about 2 days, good loyalty comps, plus a recurring monthly bonus.

Thanks for the hint (but I'm surpised to hear it from you and read all those postings because I decided to play at LuckyChance only because a friend of mine recommened it to me). And what about Aces High? Heard anything about them? I won't ask about Casino on Net since it's a ery reputable place to play (the only negative thing about them is their payments are not that fast).

Sometimes you go on hot streaks and you can't seem to lose.........and then sometimes you just can't get a win. I wouldn't have played at Lucky Chance because they rig their games (as you would have discovered by reading posts on this board). If I were you i would thank my lucky stars for winning their and never go back again.

I'm new to online gambling, and feel absolutely lost. I have already posted my question on one of the gambling msg boards (as Wild Olives), and I'd like to hear your opinion as well.
A couple of days ago ago I downloaded three casinos and started playing. First, I played at AcesHigh and won $77 on BJ. Then I found a list of no-deposit bonuses, and registered at LuckyChance Casino for $10 free bonus. I won about $150!!!!!!!!!!!! I thought, what the heck, I'll deposit this money back and add my $50 or so of my own. Deposited $200, got $400 bonus (didn't understand why, btw, I saw them talking about 101%). Anyway, I played BJ and won $327!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Both of these casinos transferred the money to my account within one day. I also played at Casino on Net (I heard that this is the most reputable online casino) - and I won $52!!!!
Is this some kind of a trick or it's ok to play again? Maybe I was so lucky just because I'm new to all this stuff? Have no other explanation!!!
