Some of the Crypto's (Omni and Peach) have things about bonus abuse in their T&C (main problem is betting w/o every dipping a bet of your own money into the bidding)

Is this a really serious threat or just to try and keep bonus whores out?

Omni and Peach are basically one-off casino bonuses, so it matters little (Omni has other fair offers now and then, and has sister sites.)

But the larger issue sounds like "no risk" bonuses. I understand the desire for no-risk bonuses, but it's not worth being a pussy about it. When I set out to gamble $1000, I can expect to, on average, lose less than 1%, or about $6. If I have $1000 of WR left and the bonus is gone, I'm not gonna be a pussy about a $6 average loss.
And I don't want to care about my status while working the bonus - that'll make me crazy, superstitious, and anxious -- I just want to get to the other end.
I'm a know-it-all.




No, really.

Oh. Ok cool. I went ahead and did Omni anyway before you replied

I should be in the clear cause 1. this is mostly for their monthly bonuses...they just keep an eye on you for your sign-up bonus. so omni is fine for the initial sign-up. just dont get whorey with their monthlies

and 2. i was down $2 of my own money at one point anyway but i gutted it out. and to show them i'm a serious player i played a little more than just the WR
pulling a courtiebee pŏŏl-ĭng ā kôrt-ē-bē (verb phrase):
1. overvaluing mid pocket pairs
2. knowing you should fold, but donkishly calling or raising anyway
