I deposited $50 and they matched $50. I needed to play $500 to get credit. So I play $500 hands of Blackjack and lose $25. I ask how much I have wagered and she tells me I need to wager $800 to cash out and my wagers so far don't count towards cashing out because I was playing Blackjack surrender! WTF! I'm pissed so I go into the regular Blackjack room and I swear to fucking god the dealer got 20 on every hand but like 3. I got 2's and 3's and just shit hands. BAM! $75 gone in about 15 minutes and about $300 in wagering. And yes I stuck to the Blackjack guide and never stayed. Damn I'm tired and pissed now.

That casino had a bad rep didn't it? So you didn't get credit either?

I'm up $100 ($50 of it was bonus) at pacific poker but a long way still from being able to withdraw it...

Casino Del Rio has got a very good reputation.

Apparently, you did not check their terms and conditions, so stop whining please.

1) All play bonuses are for wagering purposes only, i.e. all bonuses are not cashable. You would not have been able to withdraw the $50 bonus anyway.
2) BlackJack Switch and BlackJack Surrender do not count towards the minimum wagering requirements.

I have no idea how many $$$s you bet per hand, but if you lost $75 in a very short time, I suppose you played like $5 a hand (or more?). With only a $100 balance, the chances are high that you go bust. Statistical variance, man.

I'm a-skeerd of casino offers. I don't like putting so much money on the line.

I guess you wouldn't "whine" if you lost $75 from a misunderstanding. Just because they are "fairly" monitered, doesn't mean you can't get a shit load of "bad luck".

He didn't post for your sympathy, so you can just shut the fuck up. Thank you, and have a lovely day. 8)

sucks man but it probably is just kinda random. If you are gonna win like 500 at a casino remember you are gonna lose it all sometimes too

may I ask how much you were betting? if you were changing bets, or making bets 2 or over with only 100 in play than that makes a difference. Also one more tip, always call the casino hotline before you deposit.

I always ask what is the bonus, is it sticky, what are the wagering requirements and what can I play

I'm not whining. I'm just pissed. I didn't read the tiny type and only thought to click on surrender because I just won $175 on Starluck a few days ago in that game with no sticky. It's my fault for blowing it and playing the wrong game but I switched and got schooled in the way of the Dark Casino Force. I was playing $5 BTW and I don't change the wager up or down and I stick to the BJ guide. Thanks for getting my back bballp. )

BTW I just won $55 on Geisha Bingo. Now I need to decide if I should cash out without the bonus of play some more to get it.

hehehhehe

29-09-2005 11:53:25

I'd say just cash out unless you have a lot of free time or you find it to be a lot of fun.

How come CCU no longer offers Casino Del Rio?

yeah if you are betting 5 dollars the swings will be huge. so losing 75 in 15 is quite simple. I reccomend clicking the options button and increasing game speed to max and taking off all animations and playing 1 or 2 dollar bets if you are worried about losing money. That will greatly increase speed and minimize all swings.

At least you know to stick to guide and bets.

it's not about having your back either. It's about being wrong or right. If you're wrong you gotta figure out why so you don't make that mistake again. Also I didnt say you were whining but...


fact
[bad97b17c81]
1. if you don't bother to read T&C or call to double check it's your fault.[/bad97b17c81]

just like if someone signed up thier mother brother and father at freeipods at the same house then complained it didnt count...no different
[bad97b17c81]
2. If you are betting $5, the swings are going to be huge[/bad97b17c81]

and having 75 dollars isnt a lot, thats just 15 more losses than winnings. Ever play planetluck and go up 15 dollars? same thing...

and I am not sure which casino/bingo you are talking about but if you are up 55 and the bonus is worth more than that than just make your bets tiny to protect losses and play it out.


good luck man

The affiliate manager is incompetent, to say the least. I don't much fancy dealing with idiots.

No, the idea has crossed my mind, though.
