Thanks ttanaka, here is how I did.
I finished the Starluck bonus today. Took about 2 hours playing the multi-player table at $2 a bet. Highest I got while playing was just over $250, the lowest was around $76 and this was in the second hour, so I was sweating it. Played strickly by the wizard of odds chart 100%. The server stalled on me 3 times right after I made my opening bets due to congestion traffic on the server. So thats $18 of bets I didnt get to make choices on. I contacted CS about the problem and although they were very nice they wouldnt add it back into my account. They said the server showed the games as completed. So outside of the software problem it was a good experience. I did question some of the double downs the chart said to play but I played them anyhow. If I had to guess on my session the double downs were -EV. Thats not to say they wouldnt have been +EV another time though.
Anyhow here's how I did. Cleared the bonus with my $100 investment still intact. Add to that $42.50 in bonus cleared for a total of $142.50 overall. I decided to go and play some extra so it wouldnt look like I was just there whoring. This time I only played $1 bets still on the multi-table. I told myself if I got down to $130 I would stop. Finished at $150 and decided not to push my luck. Next up Planetluck, but I have to wait the 24 hours for the bonus to officially clear to cash out.
Invested $100. Finished with $150 for a total profit of $50.
Starlucks $50
